In case any of my foreign folk need the lyrics! :-P This song has always made me tear up, especially on July 4th/Independence Day. But take note that we only sing the first verse because Francis sure had a lot to say, lol.

The Star Spangled Banner

That made me so happy!!! *is so patriotic lately too* XD I'm an idiot and I always put my hand over my heart when I hear that song, even though I may be in a different country. (It made me so happy to see the American athletes do that during the Olympics even though I could tell China was like "O_o;; wtf do they do that for?")

Man, I wish we had spontaneous partying out on the streets, but Pittsburgh's not that cool. D: I heard people in NYC and Philadelphia spilled out on the streets to cry and scream and be happy when Obama won. I would've loved to partake in that. :3

Wow that is just amazing. There were all kinds of spontaneous celebrations in my area too. Albeit a bit further away, but my whole entire household was cheering and screaming for Obama all night long. I'm getting all misty eyed typing this. *dork* that man has made some damn magic!
