Bruce Hornsby setlists, concerts, downloads › Forums › General chat › Defenders Question..
Some years back I heard a radio interview with Bruce and I seem to remember him talking about someone saying something in the background towards the end of the song. I can’t seem to hear anything and was wondering if someone might know what I’m talking about…
Hopefully I wasn’t dreaming this.. 😯
Defenders of the Flag
I have found this in a fan quiz from 1995:
What tune do the guys play the opening notes of at the very end of the LP version of Defenders of the Flag?
The Star Spangled Banner. Crank it way up and you can hear the insturmental “Oh, say can you see” Sometimes they would do a little bit of this in concert too, especially the old shows with the Range.

nice work….kudos to you
Thanks for the info, is it only music or is someone singing in the background?
I saw Bruce and the Range at William & Mary Hall way back when Night on the Town first came out. At the end of “Defenders” Molo sat on the edge of the drum platform and picked out a few bars of “Oh Say Can You See” on the guitar. Brought the house down.
I’ve been holding back on this one!
Faded ole glory hanging like a rang
Defenders, defenders of the flag.

David,
Is Oh say can you see…. being said in the background?
I still seem to remember Bruce saying that his brother or a member of the band softly repeating something in the background…

not that I can hear – just the chords on the guitar (or maybe harmonica?)
