David Ball “Riding With Private Malone”–Flashback Friday [VIDEO]
Happy Veterans Day to all! I thought since it was a day to thank the men and women who have served and are currently serving this great country of ours that I would break out a song to go along with this day.
Believe it or not, we go back 10 years for this one already. It doesn't seem like it's been that long that David Ball's "Riding With Private Malone" hit the radio airwaves.
The song was released in August of 2001 and peaked at #2 on the Billboard country charts in early 2002. The song connected with many folks, especially after the 9/11 attacks. This along with "Thinkin' Problem" were David's only 2 big hits, he never had any chart success after this song.
I hope you enjoyed this musical blast from the past this week. I would also like to thank each and every one of our people in the armed forces and those who served at one time. If not for you, we wouldn't be able to live the way we all see fit. Thank you, God Bless you, God Bless your families and most of all, GOD BLESS AMERICA!
