My pet peeve about performances of the Star Spangled Banner, especially singers, is when this line is almost always screwed up: "Oh say, does that star spangled banner yet wave?" 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.

I think i am beginning to understand why you make up these stories, you keep making "suggestions" but for some reason no one listens to you. |

Eisboch I am very proud of the fact that I can now again sing the SSB without dropping an octave for the higher notes. This is due to quitting smoking. So, if you're a smoker, here's another reason to quit. |
