The dumb ass didn't even know the words. Friggin' waste. In her defense... She does know the words and has performed the Anthem at many Professional Sports events including and mostly in the NBA... How many million folks were listening, she may have been a bit nervous with the folks sitting there watching? How good was her monitor (remember, she is singing acapella which in that situation means, you don't hear anything)? It's not an easy song, especially to sing it under those circumstances can challenge even the greatest voices in the world, and indeed it has, many more times than you obviously remember. I have nothing for Christina, good voice, still just another "if I pull my skirt over my head, will you buy my records" female "rockstar".. Certainly not the soul maven she would wish to emulate. But at the same time, she has a decent voice and I am pretty sure she came into this gig with all of the focus and good intent you would expect from any professional... Get off her back, or go sing the anthem somewhere sometime, acapella, with headphones on playing something else, in front of everybody in the world you count of to make a living, friends family, peers, the President of the USA!!!... Then come and talk to me..... Just sayin' I have worked "acapella" and solo on stage in a quiet atmosphere, and it ain't easy... That's just it...I CAN sing the Anthem "acapella".Two years of Barbersop Singing, and 30+years of Band work.. Barbershop is ALL acapella. She no doubt would have had an in-ear monitor. The wavy bull**** black singing style was enough to make anyone puke in their mouth. |

Perhaps if she had just tried to sing the song straight, without adding 37 syllables to every word, she wouldn't have screwed it up so badly. This isn't the first time the ditsy broad has performed publicly. For some reason she found it necessary to make The Star Spangled Banner 'her own' with all the additional bull****. Pressure, my ass. Tim is spot on. |

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 !! |

Amen. 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: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls1YVhcLD2c They both suck. |

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

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.

That's the first time I've ever read the lyrics. I can see why our local liberals would love socialism. 'Course, it didn't last 'forever'. |

I'm simply not impressed by your superficial, odious, fake patriotism. Fake, because your racism is your defining characteristic. |

The way things are going in this country, that old song "16 Tons" seems more appropriate. We have no one but the "educators" to blame. You have to blame someone, anyone other than yourself. Bertie-Birther blaming educators for anything is hilarious. He didn't have "the right stuff" to even succeed at a community college, and went into the marinea, an outfit not known for seeking those with intellectual prowess. I made a pile of money today. |

This is the way it should always be sung during major sporting events. Hell this is the way it should always be sung period" "I don't know who that chick that sang the National Anthem at the Superbowl this year was but someone needs to send her a copy of this video so next time she'll know what the hell she's doing and what this song is for." "This rendition of the Nation Anthem should be presented at every Super Bowl and National Championship. No more Rock Star Freaks that forget and butcher the lyrics. I use to watch the half time programs, no longer since it has become a circus of screaming/yelling apes." |
