National Anthem

JMPO, I think that the singing should be screened prior to the event, and the "talent" be made to understand that there will be no "artistic expression", during the performance.
 
OK...I'm starting to forgive her for her crappy rendition of our National Anthem.

I agree....but that will never happen in today's 'PC' world....:rolleyes:

Apparently
Everyone has the right to make a mess out of our National Anthem...
and a fool of themselves in front of millions.
 
Is this the rendition to which yall like?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ETrr-XHBjE

I like some of them....the best version in my opinion is the Whitney Houston one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1QmeEdFOSc

Now what ticks me off is when the camera is viewing the crowd and players and you see people with their hats on....players with their skull caps on or helmets on and talking to each other....no respect.....now, granted, if you are not a U.S. citizen then what you should do is stand there with your arms at your side and show some respect to the country in which you live and play in.

my .02 worth.

The Whitney Houston version is my favorite so far. I have it on DVD and I get it out sometime just to listen. Christina would be better selling wallpaper of herself.
 
Just wanted to mention that now it comes to the point where at sporting events on tv when somebody starts to sing the national anthem I listen to the first verse and if its something like "ooo..whoaaa... say can you ho ho see..." (or whatever) it just grinds me. Where was Lee Harvey last night in Dallas when you needed him? I think if you cant sing it normally you should just shut up. Its not a song, soulful or otherwise. Its not to show how much you can "whoa whoa" (or whatever thats called). Just sing it straight. Better yet, dont sing it at all, have a military band or marching band or pipe organ play it with no words.

I agree... The anthem is about the fight for our freedom! It's actually about War itself! Less is more in this case, it should be resounding and yet powerful, not something that should be song as I try to wine and dine that special person for Valentine's Day. OhaHH-o0oHawahawhaahhh, doo whop do whop!
 
A lot of people are saying she botched it all up so she would get attention. Well she is getting plenty of it now.

I'd give her some extra though.....
