Citizen Soldier by 3 Doors Down

December 9, 2007

The rock band 3 Doors Down has released a new song titled, “Citizen Soldier”. The song was written for the Army National Guard and is being used by them in their latest ad campaign. It is a pretty good song. Many of you may have already seen this video, as it is being used a movie theater ad block. To be honest, I’m not a big fan of 3 Doors Down’s newer music, however, this is a great song and the video is a must see.

I copied a message that Brad Arnold, the band’s front man, released on Memorial Day this year.

“Stop for a moment today to pray for a soldier. Remember what they give up to fight for you and me. Honor their sacrifice. Never forget that we live in the land of the free because of the brave.”

Without further ado, I bring you the video for “Citizen Soldier”.

    Great song Anthony! Thanks for bringing it to our attention. I’ve always liked 3 Doors Down and have always been impressed with the way they support our Troops.

    Wow-this is awesome. I am a mother of an American Soldier and he is currently in Iraq and seeing how much bands(as yours) support our troops really makes my heart feel better bc I know that with him being over there that him and thousands of others are never alone.
    Thank you

    I heard this song at the movie theater before the movie started and tears came to my eyes. I am a mother of an American Soldier also. He is on his way to Iraq. It is a great feeling to SEE & HEAR the support for our Troops. Thank you
