Memorial Day Playlist

Some times you can't find the right words for a situation, but music can tell that story for you. The weekend is over and it's officially the last Monday in May. The one day of the year set aside to pay homage to and honor the fallen members of our armed forces. While I hope you enjoyed your weekends, the BBQs, and your families, take a moment to thank those who died to help make those things possible. Below is a list of songs that I encourage you to listen to as you reflect on the fact Freedom isn't Free  and remember the ones who died to make it all possible.



James Otto "Soldiers and Jesus"


Trace Adkins "Arlington"


Big & Rich "8th of November"


Billy Ray Cyrus "Some Gave All"


Radney Foster "Angel Flight"


Tim Mcgraw "If You're Reading This"


George Jones "50,000 Names"


Lee Greenwood "God Bless the U.S.A."


Statler Brothers "More Than a Name on a Wall"


Interstate 10 "I'm Gonna Miss You"


Keith Urban "For You"


Johnny Cash "Ragged Old Flag"


Alan Jackson "Where Were You"


Wade Davis "Last Monday in May"



Toby Keith "American Soldier"



The above songs are a combination of old classics and new favorites. The theme remains the same though. There is an incredible group of men and women out there who have literally given it all for this great country, you, and me. Don't forget to honor them today, on their day, the last Monday in May, Memorial Day.

Because I know some people prefer Spotify to YouTube, I also created a Spotify playlist with the above songs. The only difference is on the Spotify list it is Joey & Rory singing "50,000 Names" instead of George Jones as his version is not available.
