The 11th & 1 of 2 last singles From the Deluxe Edition of my Third Studio Album, "Back to the Glory Days". This track was almost on the regular version of this album but I changed it up. This song is about my frustrations with American Politics, the Government, and how I feel the Citizens of this Great Country could maybe come together to get this country Back to the Glory it once had. I love America, and being American deeply but this country has flaws that I wish were fixed, and this song is really my deep cry to try to get people to wake up positively, and not live in a Hive Mind. I am Independent also, and I hate how the opposing parties paint the country sometimes. It has a mix of feelings of my songs "Friends for the Pay", "Peace for All", and "Nothing I Do, Is Good Enough For You" but with a political, and 2000's rock sounding track. Please I hope u like my message, and keep the good faith in God to let us get through! Amen, and enjoy guys!

American Pride

“AMERICA’S #1 SON” (Guitar/Vocals - Words & Music:  Richie Kaye)

I’M A BLACK MAN AND I’M WHITE, I’M A CHRISTIAN-SEMITE
I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON

I’VE ESCAPED FROM THE CZAR, I’VE COME HERE FROM VERY FAR
I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON

SUBURBIA(N) VIRGINS OPEN UP YOUR DOORS
TELL YOUR DADDY’S NOT TO WORRY, PUT THE GUNS BACK IN THE DRAW

I’VE APPEARED SINCE ANCIENT TIME TO SPREAD THE WORD THROUGH SONG AND RHYME, I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON, AMERICA’S #1 SON

I’M A BLACK MAN AND I’M WHITE, I’M A CHRISTIAN-SEMITE
I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON

I’VE BEEN HATED I’VE BEEN SCORNED FOR TRYING TO TEACH PEOPLE RIGHT FROM WRONG, I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON …

MY LESSON IS SIMPLE START BY ELIMINATING GREED
TREAT YOUR NEIGHBORS FAIRLY AND LET LOVE BECOME THE SEED
THAT SPREADS ACROSS THE UNIVERSE TO MAKE BROTHERS OF US ALL
AND EACH ONE DOES WHAT HE DOES BEST, FOR THE BENEFIT... OF ALL

I’M A BLACK MAN AND I’M WHITE, I’M A CHRISTIAN-SEMITE
I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON, I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON, AMERICA’S #1 SON

(Repeat “AMERICA’S #1 SON” with Voice Over…)

SAY CAN YOU SEE, BY THE DAWNS’ EARLY LIGHT
THROUGH THE SMOG AND POLLUTION OF OUR FACTORIES
THROUGH THE GLARE OF THE NEON LIGHTS…
SAY CAN YOU SEE, THAT LIFE’S BECOME A GAME OF MONOPOLY
ONLY VALUE OF OUR MONEY BOTH REAL AND FAKE THE SAME
AND, PEOPLE KILL EACH OTHER IN THE GAME 

AMERICA’S #1 SON, AMERICA’S #1 SON, I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON…

I’M A BLACK MAN AND I’M WHITE, I’M A CHRISTIAN-SEMITE
I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON
		
I’VE APPEARED SINCE ANCIENT TIME TO SPREAD MY WORD THROUGH SONG AND RHYME, I’M AMERICA’S #1 SON  -  (Repeat & Fade…)

Note: To paraphrase Bob Dylan ”Songs are written from the depths of the mystical soul whose origins no one can perceive..." And, it is with zero self-consciousness (and from the depths of the mystical soul) that “America’s #1 Son” came to me in 1971. 

Thanks to my good friend (and 5x Grammy recipient) Alfonso Rodenas for mastering and re-mixing the background vocals that were buried on my TEAC 4-track Laurel Canyon home demo…

AMERICA'S #1 SON

Our nation needs a transfusion of patriotism! It is the life blood of America and the life blood of the freedoms we must hold firmly onto! 
Yes, America is not perfect. Our country has become very corrupted and demoralized but I still love this country. I love America, our flag, our God given heritage and the freedoms that our forefathers fought and died for. The providence of God has been on this nation. I am sad that there are some who hate America and our flag. The flag is not just a multicolored piece of cloth! It is the very symbol of freedom and bravery for those who know what that freedom truly has cost Americans. 
I wrote this song as a God fearing patriot who truly loves his country and the American flag. God bless.

GOD, GUNS, AND AMERICA!

In Episode 4 my good friend "Tom" (from Ohio) and I did a reenactment of a recent dialogue I had with a well known protestant influencer.

Also another project is on the way so be ready for the impact of it all when it drops!!! Love you guys, Vinnie.

The first question that most people probably want to ask me is about the name of this new show.  Why would I call it “The Sad Catholic Show?” 
Well… It’s not because I am depressed… no matter what you hear in my voice… 
The real reason for using the name “The Sad Catholic Show” is because this is MY show… and my parents gave me the name “Sadoth Catholic Bowden.”
…Though having already existed for nine months on the day of my birth, I didn’t get to have any input as to what they named me… 
They wanted to give me the name of a strong leader, a Catholic Saint that was faithful all the way through Martyrdom. Preferably one that attended the council of Nicaea. They landed on “Sadoth”  and to drive the point home, they gave me the middle name “Catholic.” 
Sadoth was a Martyr who was put to death with 128 fellow Christians in Persia, and attended the Council of Nicaea in 325. He was head of the Christian community during the severe persecution of the Church in Persia under the Sassanid Persian ruler Shapur II. Arrested with many other believers, Sadoth and eight of his followers were cruelly imprisoned at Bei-Lapat and tortured prior to execution; Sadoth was beheaded… 
…and was a man… 
…which I am not… 
…but that didn’t stop them.
Growing up with the name “Sadoth” wasn’t the best.  I tried to go by “Sadie,” but I have a family that doesn’t really use nicknames.  We were given the names that we have for a reason. Sadoth became “Sad” for short, literally making me “Sad Catholic.”

All ragamuffins of the world unite! Yes, I am small, raggedy, weathered and worn by this ol world but I have the spark of life, love and laughter that still rages within my chest. Hope and Passion for my God, my family, my friends, my fellow countryman!

Spiritual songs mostly written from a bleeding but grateful heart to my Jesus and for the precious remnant ragamuffins of believers who may also need some encouragement or conviction to see them overcome this ol world.
