77-YEAR-OLD GERMAN IMMIGRANT WRITES PRO-AMERICA SONG



MILFORD, Mass. (Wireless Flash) – A 77-year-old German immigrant has written a country song to honor America and the victims of the terrorist attacks. Siegfried John Loh says he was inspired to write the anthem after he heard President Bush utter the phrase “..through the tears of sadness” in a speech after the September 11 attack and thought it would make a great song title. Loh’s tune includes lyrics such as: Terrorists...fanatics! There’s a lot of stress! Though some walls may crumble/ We stay calm and humble/ ’Tis my country/ My happiness. Siegfried has sent his song to singers like Tom Jones, but he fears they’re only interested in singing older patriotic songs. However, he remains hopeful that his song will eventually become as popular as his biggest hit, “Back to Nature,” a country song promoting nudism that was popular in Austria in the mid-1990s.
