Nobody sang, “God Bless America” better than Kate Smith

Dean Martin, alongside special guests including Kate Smith, Barbara Eden, Mickey Rooney, and Norm Crosby, delivered a patriotic performance on ‘The Dean Martin Show.’ They sang American classics in front of a choir dressed in red, white, and blue. Dean and Kate started with ‘Yankee Doodle Dandy’ and moved into ‘My Old Kentucky Home,’ followed by ‘You’re a Grand Old Flag’ with a full stage of singers and dancers. Kate’s rendition of ‘God Bless America’ was particularly powerful, harking back to her ‘Songbird of the South’ days during WWII. The show, which aired from 1965 to 1974, closed with Dean’s hit ‘Everybody Loves Somebody,’ leaving the audience brimming with patriotism. This unforgettable performance united some of the era’s biggest stars with the legendary Kate Smith.
