Good job!!!

The screw ups do "B-a-n-n-e-r" as if the notes in the music score were climbing up and down a ladder. The correct music score is "Ba-" then to the higher note and down with "n-ner" I can't help to listen for this everytime I hear someone singing it at ballgames, etc. Most screw it up and sing it wrong. Eisboch It's a tough sing. Some weeks ago here I suggested "God Bless America" would be a better national anthem for many reasons, not the least of which is that it is "singable." Naturally, the low-brain-outputers objected in their usual way. Tough sing or not, all it takes is a little effort to learn and do it properly. It's not just amateurs. Many professional performers do it incorrectly. Roseanne Barr? 8) I know it's a minor, stupid thing, but it really ****es me off. Eisboch |
