Did anyone see the inaugural concert, held on the steps of the Lincoln memorial? It brought tears to my eyes. I cried like a baby. That's the first time in a long time I've felt good about my country, America the beautiful. When U-2 sang the the song just for America, I wept like a little girl. I hope this positive imagery remains around for a long time. I'll bet even some of you hard core righties would have been moved. It wasn't partisan at all. It was about Americans coming together to make this country better

Yep, and I felt emotional about it too. I'm just a white guy but I felt so overwhelmingly happy for how blacks and everyone else are really finally starting to feel things going their way, and to see everyone there happy with smiles on their faces regardless of politics or race etc... Practically a miracle and the timing with respect to Dr King's speach, just feels like it's all coming together.

And yes, at 40 years old this is the very first time I actually felt proud of our country and that the patriotic songs they were singing didn't sound like hollow meaningless crap like it always has before for me.

Yes they are. They sang a song about how great America could be that brought tears to my eyes. The whole world is stoked about Obama. This may be the beginning of something good, I certainly hope so, for that is all we have left is hope.

It is being replayed all the time by HBO, they are the only ones with rights to the performances.

It will end up on youtube soon, if it's not already.
