"Battle Hymn of the Republic"
As far as I'm concerned, this performance by Judy Garland on her variety series, recorded after JFK's assassination, is one of the greatest of all time. JFK was a friend of hers.
I have the episode which this song appears on DVD, by the way. Garland's variety show might well have been the best in television history, despite having Jerry van Dyke on part of the season to make a fool out of himself.
