...1918/1938), by Daniel Rodriguez (2001), on "God Bless America." Rodriguez is the NYPD officer who after Sept. 11 found a new career singing Berlin's "solemn prayer" at ball games. DRod's tenor is just as supple and virile on this CD single, released Dec. 11. Guest emcee Rudy Giuliani reads the verse in impeccable New Yorkese ("While the storm clouds gather far across...

The following Monday, to mark the reopening of the New York Stock Exchange, New York Governor George Pataki and Mayor Rudolph Giuliani joined traders in singing it.

New Yorkers heeded Rudy Giuliani's advice, but 300 miles south, in Virginia--the state in which the Pentagon was attacked--nobody much cared when America's mayor appeared in a television commercial and declared, "If I were a Virginian, I would vote for Mark Earley."
