The hardest for me that day was watching those poor souls to choose between burning or jumping. I was 47 and cried like a baby I couldn't imagine that decision they had to make.

Guys, this is an example of the so-called ‘Christian nationalism’ that certain people in our country are telling us to be afraid of now. The Bible did say that we would be persecuted. How much more patriotic and constructive could we be as Americans? God, please bless and save our America! 🇺🇸 🙏🏼🇺🇸

Vote blue, save our democrac.. I will never forget how our country became one. Look at us now, we are so divided, Republicans talking about civil war. One man's lie has done this, he attacked our capital and is the leader of a domestic terrorist group. Trump is the biggest threat to the United States of America.

Its unfortunate that it has taken Evangelicals until now to see what they had been doing all along. Maybe things have changed for y’all over the past few years in this country, but as a Catholic this is nothing new. I grew up hated by atheists and Protestants alike. Kinda ironic from my perspective to see how bothered Evangelicals are now that their religion is constantly ridiculed.

Alan wrote this song as a way to try and cope with the tragedy of 9-11. This was his first public performance of the song.❤❤❤

I was a NYC First responder. I was a Paramedic and a Detective from 1987-2008. This song really hits home. I am still losing friends through cancers and suicide.

I couldn’t be further removed from NYC here in Texas, but that day it didn’t matter where you were from, we all felt it. Thank you for your service. And I hope you have lost the last friend that you’re going to lose. God Bless

I was 20 when 9/11 happened. It still holds a lot of bad memories for me. I do not like to listen to anything about it. Not that I was anywhere near there, but still. I love the I Love Lucy reruns mention in this song, because a lot of people don't know, or don't remember afterwards, all channels seemed to only play what was going on in the tragedy. One channel played I Love Lucy 24/7. It's what I watched to forget about what was going on. Unfortunately, the show is now linked to the tragedy in my mind, as I haven't been able to watch it since either. This song is a masterpiece. Always makes me tear up. Alan Jackson is amazing.

I love Alan Jackson, he is truly country thru and thru. Saw in concert at George Strait Music Festival. He’s the definition of a country star. He’s not afraid to add God and Jesus into his songs and that’s just one reason he has been a fan in our house. God had blessed him, to wake up and write a song like this in one morning, and he’s got no need to be flashy and animates on stage because he sucks you into a song and takes you to another place in that moment. Thanks for the great videos and for being one of the few who incorporates the Lord into your videos.

"Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love." Lamentations 3:32

I remember 9/11 very well. I watched Alan sing this song live on television. The nation needed healing and this was there to help. Ray Charles also helped heal the nation at the world series baseball game when he sang "America the beautiful" to a packed stadium less than 2 months after the attack. Check it out! It's on youtube. Great reaction!

When others were writing songs expressing their anger, Alan Jackson reminded us to love.

I was 39 at the time this occured! The first thing I did was called the schools to check on my kids and called my husband cause he was working on a tractor and I knew he wouldn't know yet what had happened! I am a nurse and ironically I was attending an education class on how to handle a crisis in the ER such as warfare! We were on break when the news came on TV. President Bush was in Florida at an Elementary school not far from where I live when this tragedy occured. Needless to say...our class never resumed that day!! A day in my lifetime I'll NEVER forget!!😢❤

Another masterpiece by the legendary Alan Jackson

I worked for a credit union at the time and we tried to carry on business as usual but we were all crying. It was all surreal. We didn't understand why something like this was happening. Prayers still today for those who carry scars from that day.

I was a Senior in High School when this happened we were in our ROTC Class, and I just remember all of the shock faces, and because of the seriousness of it all we couldn't even wear our uniforms the next day because then we could be possible targets for terrorists.

I remember 9/11 like it was yesterday. I was in 8th grade and i was in mrs. Sauer's class and everybody was glued to the tv in shock. It was one of those moments you never forget. R.I.P always to the victims and their families🙏 we will never forget that tragic day.

I was 21 just starting the real party years of my life. I woke up on a buddies floor turned on the tv and watched it happen. Woke up my buddies and told them I need to go home and be with my mom and dad brothers.

I was living in Riyadh Saudi Arabia with my husband and young kids , the whole community came together and prayed and cried and ate together . God breaks beariers and brings people together through the storms . Bless y’all and keep the faith . 🙏❤️🤗

I remember right where I was. It's a day this old vet won't forget. I was employed by a DOD contractor at the time. Love your reactions.

I was 29 building a fuel storage facility at Midway airport in Chicago. I remember every second of that day.

I get chills every time I hear this song. I was a grandmother and I prayed for my grandchildren. They are the ones that will fight the next war.

I'm a huge Alan Jackson fan

Look at the date from this performance it was a month after this tradgety. He didn't say he hated anyone, he just focused on the positive, and talked about what regular people were thinking. Great song

I was at my University at the time (thank God a Catholic school). The administration brought us all together in the gymnasium for a day of prayer and we had a Mass for the fallen. My faith in Christ was what sustained me that day! After that I called my Parents and Grandparents back in Georgia to let them know I was safe!

I was 9 years old and in the 4th grade when this occurred. The tragedy is the reason I can still remember that we had a very early lunch time that year of 10:45 am. There was a Walmart across the street from the school. My teacher used her lunch break to make a Walmart run and heard about it while there and when we returned from lunch we watched the coverage until school let about about an hour or so later. You should also react to “courtesy of the red, white, and blue” by Toby Keith

I was in the USMC infantry on deployment. Seems like yesterday. The emotional impact can’t be described. Especially being from the northeast.

Vince Gill gave the intro for Allan, he is another gentleman that you gotta give a reaction to.

He did a gospel album. Very cool version of "Are you washed in the blood/ I'll fly away" as a medley. He has heaps of good songs.

Alan has (I believe) a couple of Gospel albums as well. For another song with a great message, there is a song by T. Graham Brown called Wine into Water. It is a song he wrote with a couple of songwriter friends about how after years of failing to stop his alcohol abuse, he turned to God. T is an amazing singer. While he is primarily known as a country singer, he has a real bluesy and soulful voice and style. Worth a listen guys.

He started it all. Every tribute started with Alan Jackson.

I had just got stationed at Ft Rucker, al (active duty army). We were still living in Temp housing. My hubs went to base to see some of our friends. I had some time, so I turned the tv on, and Little House on the Prairie came on. I can remember my brain telling me “don’t watch this episode, it’s super sad and I don’t want to be sad today”. So next station was CNN that’s when the second tower was hit.

I started my career in 1991. We lost 343 Firefighters that day and many more public servants. What some people don"t realize is we are still losing first responders to this day from sicknesses caused by breathing in toxic chemicals. The pain may have stopped for some, years after this tragedy, but for others it continues to be a daily struggle.

Still in ours prayers every day. 🖤💙🖤 🖤❤️🖤

No Words just 😢😥😢😥😢😥😢

I must've been in the only school in America that didn't show what was happening that day on the TV. Everyone else who talks about it says they got to watch it in class. Our substitute teacher kept periodically returning to our room telling my homeroom teacher what was going on as it was happening. Our parents didn't come to pick us up. Or at least mine didn't. Lol I remember that day very vividly. I was 9 and in the 4th grade. I remember more details, down to the exact radio station, their words when the news of the first plane broke over the radio, and the exact place on my bus route I was when I first heard it. But for the sake of keeping this "short" I'll just leave it here.

I remember well where I was. 4 weeks later I was in Afghanistan as a medic in the 101st Airborne.

I'm not a Christian but this song was amazing I was in NYC on September 11th 2001 it was horrible

He wrote this 2 weeks after 9/11

I sure do appreciate your channel. You are both clean with your language and conversations. The songs you review are also clean and respectful. Thank-you for having content that can be listened to no matter who can hear it! God Bless 🥰

this song still takes me back to being in high school. the whole school stopped and we watched it together on the news. i'll never forget that day so many different emotions were happened between everyone. forever etched in my brain

Hi ya'll.... It was the scariest day of my life and I was in Indiana! My oldest son had just been born in June and I woke up to nurse him and turned on the tv to see it happening live....... Horrific!!! Another great reaction :)

its one of the best country songs of all time,Alan Jackson is a legend,great video

The place I worked at would play the radio , but when this all started they cut it off! We found out after our shift!

I was 38…I will NEVER forget!!

It’s wild how young he looks here. My brain thinks this was 3 years ago.

Tears are a gift from the Holy Spirit. I have it too... I'm a mess at Mass sometimes. ❤

I was 12 I was in Arizona at the time and out their it was about a quarter to six am for I always got up early to feed our cows horses goats and chickens and then get a early start on my harder subjects in school and when you are homeschooled and you are fourth oldest of 21 you look for those few times a day when it's quiet to do the subjects you struggle in and for me it was math and my dad heard me and called me in where he was watching the morning news and the first tower was hit and I watched their in shock then I saw the second tower get hit. Well keep it up I love watching you two You might like Struggle Jennings and Caitlin Curtis God we need you now and or Home free Go rest high on that mountain.

This song meant so much. I was in high school, and I remember every part of this day. They put a bunch of chairs in the common area, and we watched, in silence. Then, the Principal came and told a fellow classmate her loved one was gone. She broke down, and the silence upon her screams were deafening!

That was literally my 1st day as a police officer .. never forget it.

I still tear up listening to this song. I was a 28 year old stay at home momma and i held my babies and cried. I watched the videos of the news from that particular day and the days after every year on the anniversary, and cry like a baby.. I will never forget what happened that day to our country.

It was a really bad day. I had been out of the military for 7 years. I was moved to go back in.

He was introduced by another legend Vince Gill and then as you paused at the end, they cut to Alan's lovely wife Denise who he's been married to about 45 years now on the left and then on the right Vince's wife, talented Christian singer Amy Grant and a legend in her own right.

Always love God and will be fine

My favorite songs by the icon Alan Jackson are Remember When, Livin’ on Love, Where Were You, Small Town Southern Man, I’ll Try, Here in the Real World, Drive, She’s Got the Rhythm, The Older I Get, So You Don't Have to Love Me Anymore, Monday Morning Church, and I Can't Do That Anymore (recorded by Faith Hill).

And please never forget those that chose to die on their plane when they found out where their hijacked was headed and what had already unfolded! I listened to the audio on one mans phone call to his wife, He told her he Loved her and his children and told her that he and the rest of the passengers were going to bring down the Plane before it reached it's destination! If that is not Selfless Sacrifice by true HEROES then I don't know what is! There were so many HEROES that day that did what had to be done regardless of the cost ! THANK YOU each and Everyone of you for choosing others lives over your own! Sadly how fast we forget! I will always praise and Honor you for the rest of my LIFE! Alan Jackson is right, the greatest and most powerful gift that GOD has given us is LOVE! 🙏🙏🙏 Your Reaction as always is terrific Thank you both for spreading Faith and LOVE through your Reactions! You are doing GOD'S work and your Treasures in HEAVEN with be unfathomable! GOD Bless you and your whole Family 🙏🙏🙏

My dad was an over the road truck driver and had just made a delivery to the towers no more then 10 minutes before the first plane it,

Love this song! I sent one for a request cant wait to hear that one of Alan Jackson

You should watch the official video for this song. It is very powerful.

I love watching you two !!!!❤❤❤

Never fails to move me. ❤😂

I can remember hearing this song the first time. Coming back from a pizza delivery. I can tell you: it ain't just the ladies that can have headlights.

I was in the 11th grade when that happened I was 17 years old and that day is still stuck in my memory I will never forget that 9/11

Never Forget. Current Gov could care less. But always remember that the American Patriotic Spirit comes from sacrifice. It’ll be required of us all in the near future im sure.

I was 6 years old turning 7 in November i was three houses down from my grandparents house at two older sisters houses that we neighborhood kids called "grandmas house " they treated us like we was their grandkids my mom was cleaning their house and she let me skip school that day cause it was a half day and i had good grades i remember watching this on their floor model tv ill never forget i always cry to this song

Some moments in time we never forget this is one of those days. I still remember where I was and I also still remember where I was the day Elvis died.

I was 4 years old and I cried with my momma it's something I will never forget it ever I knew the parents of a man who died in the towers God rest all the souls who perished on this fateful day

Be a spouse / children of military members. My husand was in the Marines and on base. Couldnt get in touch with him for several hrs. They locked the bases down and put multiple active duty from different units to work all the gates for 24 hrs shifts. They screened all thr card going in and out of base. Traffic was terrible and people eho lived on base went in the back and side gates to avoid the front gate because it was so busy.

It's so weird that there are grown adults that were born after this day. It doesn't feel that long ago.

Your experience with 9/11 was the same that I had when John F. Kennedy was killed.

I was home alone and my daughter was working in New York. She was okay but spent the day standing outside her apartment watching the buildings being destroyed. Good song! Watch Bette Midler singing Wind Beneath My Winds. At the 9/11 Memorial Service

I was a Medic in the Army stationed in Korea when 9/11 happened. We were locked down on our post for 30 days and then they only allowed soldiers that had to PCS to leave for a while after that

911 was your generations Kennedy assassination. I was in fourth grade when he was killed and remember it so well. I told my nine year old daughter at the time she would always remember this.

люблю кантри.

U guys should check out mercury blues live from Alan Jackson

The beautiful blonde in red and gold where you paused the end of the video, is Alan's wife.

I remember every minute of that day

I was in my senior year of high school

I was 34 when it happened. 2nd shifter so I was asleep. My girlfriend then woke me up. Saw the 2nd tower get hit.

Yeah, what a day we wish never happened.❤✝️❤💯

Unfortunately the majority of the kids today never knew about or lived through 9/11. Our daughter is 16 but she knows about it because my husband and I have tomd her because we lived it.

Yall need to check out Gary Allan - No Judgement Day, it is based off a true story, that happened in my hometown

A GOD THING -- My husband was at work in the US State Department in Washington DC. I was at home in West Virginia. I happened to pass the TV and heard the news . . . the reporter said that a few reports had said that the State Department had been hit! the phones were all either out, or else the lines were jammed with an overflow. I had no way of knowing whether my husband was in dead or in danger. I wasn't sad or scared -- I was instantly filled with such an energy of RAGE, I could grabbed a sword and marched off to war right then and there! But I had to go pick up our youngest son, who was at school. All the other mothers were gathered around whispering and weeping, but I was just furious. Several long hours later I got a call from my husband, super brief, that he was okay and was coming home, but not sure how long it would take. I heard the story some hours later, but I still get chills to think of it. . . The State Department had been evacuated, so he had to leave his office. The trains were halted, and Union Station was locked up tight. He looked for phone booths, but the lines were all down. He was figuring he would have to sleep on a park bench with his trench coat for a blanket, and it was getting chilly at that time of year. But he thought he'd walk around Union Station just one more time, praying as he went. As he rounded one corner, he saw an acquaintance from the train, one who lived in our town! Together, they walked around the next corner, and lo and behold, walking toward them was yet another acquaintance from our West Virginia town -- this one had driven in to work that day! They knew that roads were blocked off, but Jack pointed out where he had parked. Again they started walking. AS they drew closer, they realized that Jack's jeep was parked one-half block beyond the cordoned off area. They stepped OVER that yellow cordon, got in the jeep, and drove HOME to WV and home to me! The meeting of those 3 men was a miracle. The fact that the jeep was parked outside of the corded off area was a bigger miracle still. God was with my husband that day for sure!

You should react to till the last shots fired by trace adkins live. Makes you think

Check out Alan Jacksons song Drive

I wanted to get back into the Marine Corps, I couldn’t because of a head injury during my 3rd enlistment

Check out Warren zieders outskirts of Heaven

If you want a awesome song do johnny cash a boy named sue it was my dad's favorite he died two months ago I miss him

I was working in downtown D.C. for a government intelligence agency, and had to evacuate the building because we were one of the possible targets of Flight 93, which is the plane that was taken down by the passengers in Pennsylvania. It was a terrible time. And this song captures it well.

You should do 5 leaf cover

Three Wooden Crosses....Randy Travis

This is a song about 9-11 tragedy. 1:30

Anyone notice they never look at the comments at all, no likes, no replies, nothing

If your reading this by Tim Mcgraw

I was 22 when 9/11 happened

My cousin was going to take a job 2 weeks before and something told her not to if she would have taken that job I would not have 1 of my best friends and I would not have my beautiful 2 cousi that she adopted how is now 13

I find it hard to believe God allowed this to happen. Apparently it is part of his plan. Great song for the tragedy.

Talk about Jesus. React to They don’t understand by sawyer brown!
