Most Americans canNOT sing the Anthem. That's why they substitute
America The Beautiful most of the time. What a disgrace. Her using
that wavy bull**** style.

The other thing that gets me is this: Americans are VERY patriotic.
But MOST Americans CANNOT sing their " patriotic " National Anthem.
They now substitute " America The Beautiful" , due to the fact that
most CAN sing this lovely song.I do think it is a very nice song.

When I was a boy in public school, we used to HAVE to sing "God Save
The Queen" and say the Lords Prayer EVERY morning. After several
years, it became singing O Canada, followed by the Lords Prayer.
Now, BOTH have been cut from any curriculum, just to be " politically
correct". I find this disgusting. I'm sure that singing of the
American Anthem is still done in most schools. Texas for sure. They
seem to be the ONLY State, that held FIRM to that. Bully for Texas !!

yeah, after going back and hearing it, she is also an idiot... but I
still think she came in with good intent...

I just can't agree. She's among a big hand full of singers who think they should
add their own 'melodies,' or whatever that ****'s called, to the National
Anthem. I've never heard it work well. Going up the octave on the word 'free'
isn't too bad, if the singer can do it well, but that gal just sucked all the
way around. Hell, she belongs right up there with this gal:

They both suck.

Yeah, but if one does it well,t hen many think they can do it well,
then it becomes a trend.

Then it begins to get stale.

Yup. They ought to leave that for the trumpets!

Like Paul Harvey used to say "Here, wash your ears out with this..."

And I appreciate this comment:

"That's the way it should be done in every national sports event. We
need to tell the big sports associations there's no need for MTV

Perhaps we need a different national anthem. The one we have is a
difficult "sing" under the best of circumstances. The words are ok, no
better than ok, but the music is just awful.

"America the Beautiful" is a far, far better song.

"This land is your land" no longer is applicable, since the corporations
now own about everything mentioned.

Well, Harry and Paul seem ready to chuck the National Anthem. Perhaps they've
never heard it sung properly.

Here, the way it *can* be sung.
