"The Star Spangled Banner"
Words by Francis Scott Key
Music by John Stafford Smith


"The Star Spangled Banner" is the national   more...anthem of the United States of America. The lyrics are from a poem entitled, "Defense of Fort McHenry", written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key, after he witnessed the September 13th attack by the British Royal Navy on Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland. This War of 1812 bombardment is now known as the Battle of Baltimore (September 12-14, 1814).
Throughout the night of the 13th, the bombing was heavy. At dawn on September 14th, Francis Scott Key saw that the huge American flag, which is now called "The Star Spangled Banner", was still waving at the fort. It inspired him to write the now famous poem.

The flag currently hangs at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.

On March 3rd, 1931, by congressional resolution, The "Star Spangled Banner" became the national anthem of the USA.

"The Star Spangled Banner" lyrics:

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

As you will see, the horse in the first video clip did NOT want to behave itself, and start the jumping course!! The IRONY is that the horse and rider not only managed to start the course JUST before the team was penalized for delay, but the duo finished the course WITHIN the allotted time limit, AND it didn’t knock down any jump poles either, so the horse and rider got to advance to the competitors’ “jump off round”!!

The song is “Up!” by Shania Twain.  less

Major milestones of the GLBT Movement for equal rights. We've come a long way but still have a long way to go! We must be strong and keep the Movement alive until we have complete equal rights, otherwise   more...we are submitting that we are just 2nd-class citizens who are not equal to everyone else. Update: Prop 8 passed in the state of California on Nov. 4, 2008, banning same-sex marriage but the fight is not over!
You will probably have to pause the video to read each complete milestone.
