I liked it. There's video out there somewhere.

She has one style that is original to her and it’s all she knows.

It’s another person with the “’ME...ME...ME...Look at me!” agenda. The anthem meant nothing to her, and it’s obvious

. . and another evidence of the enemy's efforts to erase American identification.
Of all the insidious ways in which the enemy attempts to destroy us, the general concept of erasing us from the face of the earth, the attack on everything familiar for something "new" is the worst.
It's already happened to and in our churches.

Just once before I die, I’d like to hear the national anthem sung at a public event exactly as it was written, without any “interpretation” such as yodeling the last line. I don’t expect to, though.
To: Libloather
I liked it too.
I thought it was very sincere.

Everyone's taste in music is different but for me, Whitney Houston's version from the 1991 Super Bowl is perfection. Goose bumps every time I hear it.

Best rendition I ever heard was Donna Summer at the 1991 MLB All-Star game at Fenway Park.
Jaw-dropping.

And the first post on FR is I liked it… it’s time to purge FR or leave it.
The national anthem… change it and put it on your personal album, but not a public singing that is to honor America… it’s the same people who think this is the first day of summer and head to the lake to um… honor the fallen.

Only the first verse is ever sung. The fourth never.

I guess it wasn’t as bad as it could have been, so there’s that.
I think I’m less bothered by her interpretation as I am by the trend that everything must be “reinterpreted” for “modern audiences”. We no longer seem to have room for tradition and I suspect it’s intentional in order to sever us from our collective past so it can be recast as necessary. Those who control the past...
I’m sure thinking that makes me racist or sexist, or at least curmudgeonly. But I’m past the point where I care.

Find a copy of Larry Ford’s rendition of the Star Spangled Banner and you will be blown away. He sings it like it is suppose to be sung and it is glorious!

The National Anthem is best sung corporately, respectfully, and with no frills.
