USNA Glee Club: "Blue & Gold"

[thomasboaz]

My grandfather was a navy grad class of 67. And boy did he love sing.he passed this year and the stories ive heard of his days in the academy and in service has inspired me greatly. I may not join like he did but i plan to see the skies like he did. Hearing this song will fill me forever with his memory and I'll never forget lowell boaz for as long as the navy protects our country. Also BEAT ARMY.

My daughter just started her first year at the Naval Academy and this song hits hard 😭. So beautiful ❤.

[NavyCWO]

Though not an Annapolis graduate. I spent 27 years in the Navy: aircrew for 6 years, served in 2 submarines and 27 surface ships; this still stirs my blood! I did graduate from the Senior Enlisted Academy in 1985.

[BigHurtreborn]

Every time I hear this after the Army-Navy game, I can't help but get a lump in my throat. There's something about it that just stirs up so many emotions.

[robertlamont]

After 45 years since I last walked the yard, the second verse carries a meaning which is impossible to explain. Go Navy!

[trumanbest]

43 years after graduation, still hits my heart.

[Wvdoctorz]

My dad was Class '56. I grew up hearing this song. I love it. Go Navy! Beat Army!

[PATRIOT-rw]

I just enlisted in the Navy carrying on the tradition in my family!!!

[edwardpate]

Although I spent my 6 years in the US Navy as an enlisted man this stirs me to my core! Former ET1(SW).

Now colleges from sea to sea
May sing of colors true,
But who has better right than we
To hoist a symbol hue?
For sailors brave in battle fair
Since fighting days of old,
Have proved a sailor's right to wear
The Navy Blue and Gold.
BEAT ARMY!!

[Porfiris]

I watched Navy beat Army this past Saturday. My dad was in the Navy for 24 years, sadly he passed away last year. He didn't get to see Navy beat Army before he passed. I cried when they sang this at end. I know he was happy they won.

Verse 1:
Now colleges from sea to sea
May sing of colors true
But who has better right than we
To hoist a symbol hue
For sailors brave in battle fair
Since fighting days of old
Have proved the sailor's right to wear
The Navy Blue and Gold

Verse 3:
Four years together by the Bay
Whеre Severn joins thе tide
Then by the Service called away
We're scattered far and wide
But still when two or three shall meet
And old tales be retold
From low to highest in the Fleet
We'll pledge the Blue and Gold

[basix]

I (a high school junior with my eyes set on Annapolis) am just now realizing that my high school uses their fight song. Go navy blue and white!

[carlhallowell]

Hope this is sung second tonight. BEAT ARMY!

[billofwrights]

Someone said that this is on tier with “Notre Dame, Our Mother” as the best alma mater song of any university.

[peterhansen]

Makes me regret not going to the Academy when I had the opportunity.
