Ray Charles has the distinction of being both a national treasure and an international phenomenon. He started out from no where; years later finds him a global entity. Hundreds of thousands of fingers have hit typewriter and word processor keyboards telling and retelling his story because it is uniquely American, an example of what we like to think is the best in us and of our way of life. The Ray Charles story is full of paradoxes, part and parcel of the American Dream.Rags to riches. Triumph overcoming tragedy. Light transcending darkness. The name Ray Charles is on a Star on Hollywood Boulevard's Walk of Fame. His bronze bust is enshrined in the Playboy Hall of Fame. There is the bronze medallion cast and presented to him by the French Republic on behalf of More...

Everyone in my class had to learn it for flag day. I could not believe that I would ever learn and memorize this song. Some times I would just lip sing but finally I got it. Now it helps me in social studies. If my teacher says: "quick how many states are there in the u.s.a?" I would say "50 of course." So helpful | Reviewer: (: ------ About the song Fifty Nifty United States performed by Ray Charles I remember back in fifth grade we had to sing this. I did memorize it but after a year or so - I'm going into eight grade - I forgot the order past Montana and I'm trying to remember it again. This is a great song, though. I learned this song in 3rd grade....... | Reviewer: lili ------ About the song Fifty Nifty United States performed by Ray Charles Well in 3rd grade we had to learn this song! It was so hard at first but we got the hang of it. Also we had to hold up the signs to make it easier. But that made it way easier to learn it was really fun. My teacher was the nicest to learn at. chorus | Reviewer: Mags ------ About the song Fifty Nifty United States performed by Ray Charles I love this song because I have to sing it in chorus. I'm trying out for the solo and I'm not that nervous because I already got a solo for a different song this year. The solo part is... in a calm objective opinion Rhode Island is the best of the...I have to sing in front of my whole chorus to try out! It may not seem big but we have 110 kids in our chorus! Its a Leon Russell Written song | Reviewer: Soul Nutts ------ About the song A Song For You performed by Ray Charles I admit Ray Charles and Donny Hathaway give this song its haunting potency...but who deserves more credit? The guy that wrote the lyrics or the one that sang it? i dont know, i couldnt say, but you have to admit that song writing, like poetry in the 20th century had become a self-indulgent activity, and chances are that, while beautifully sang and in ways- convinient to those that sang it and their life situations, the most true reality of the circumstance was felt by the one that first penned it...thats significant. Russell was a musical heavy wieght himself, and i guess he deserves as much credit as Ray and Donny. I have to learn this song... | Reviewer: Someone ------ About the song Fifty Nifty United States performed by Ray Charles This song is a great song. As the 4th grader Im in 5th grade and I have to learn this song for chorus, but I think its a really cool song and i'll be able to learn all the states in a nice song which is really really cool I cant wait till my school concert and the rest of the chorus and I being able to sing all of the states in front of the whole school.

It has a great beat and a great tune. Now i heard of this song at about six years old but acctually found out about it this year. In fourth grade, we have to learn ballroom dansing. ( Its not really fun ) but we had to dance the swing ( or Jitterbug ) to it. It was all our favorite dance and music to the dance so, whenever we heard our teacher Mrs. Mary play it, we would not care anymore who we are dancing with and have fun. I would always hear a great roar when the music started. Fantastic Song | Reviewer: Rosemary ------ About the song Fifty Nifty United States performed by Ray Charles I sang this school back in 3rd or 4th grade and loved the song as a child. To this day (I'm 51) I can whiz through the state's in alphabetical order and amaze everyone. I forget thing's, but sure haven't forgotten how to say my state's!!
