“With over 200 million views through all social media platforms, myself and Home Free are celebrating the 2021 Telly Award win for 'Most Viral Video,'" said singer/songwriter Lee Greenwood.

"I have been inundated with questions about the version of God Bless the USA with Home Free/The United States Air Force Band, and how it came together as people just love the feel of it. Now to win an award and know that almost one-third of our entire US population has heard this version is astounding to me."
