I Knew It. I was ready to comment before the game started how I hated the "new and improved" Star Spangled Banner. Interesting to me..a lot more people seemed to have their hand over their heart during "America" rather the National Anthem.

Doesen’t matter! This is the Gay Bowl! The first singer stars in a gay TV show! Then, how did you like the male transsexual ad? Then there was the Doritos male finger-sucker, and the pants-sniffer ad! This is the first Gay Bowl! I hate to say it, but even the player in the first TD...William Gay? Coincidence?

Even w/o the mess up that was the worst version since Rosanne Barr, loved her getting hit by the log.

Lord, I apologize... and be with the starving Pygmies down there in New Guinea. Amen.

"O'er the ramparts we watched"

Aguilera wouldn't know a rampart if her liposuctioned bottom was straddling one.

Not only HORRIBLE, but disrespectful too. I HATE it when these so-called “stars” decide OUR National Anthem is fair game for their interpretation and “artistic impression”. Sing the song the way it was meant to be sung, or DON’T SING IT. All those extra voice inflections, pauses, and drawn out notes inserted at her whim made a mockery of the Anthem. Just HORRIBLE.

Let’s just do away with national anthems for stupid athletic events, huh?

Find a singer that knows the words to the National Anthem and can sing it in a respectful tone the way it was meant to be sung.

Many of these so called musicians are tone deaf, have short memories and are talentless who lip sync their way through life and disappoint their fans, the few they have...

I missed the flub because her first few lines of the anthem were so irritating I muted it.

I'm tired of all the "urban yodelers" (as Michael Savage calls them) they hire to sing out National Anthem. Can't they find someone who can just sing the damn song the way it's supposed to be sung without all the atmospheric wailing and yodeling?

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Don’t know why anyone would want to revisit this, but if you must, you can see it here at the original Youtube link

rather than the businessinsider blog.

I know the “Star-Spangled Banner” is a hard song to sing, and I personally think “America the Beautiful” should be the national anthem (reference version by Ray Charles). But if you’re going to sing the “Star-Spangled Banner”, especially in front of a huge national audience, learn the words and get it right.

These girls from Texas would have brought the house down... if someone had been smart enough to give them the chance.

Carrie Underwood was wonderful last year. Not only did Aguilera forget the words, she didn’t sing it with emotion, she sang it as a performance.

Anybody who watched SB X in 1976, would remember Tom Sullivan’s rendition. That’s the way you do it.

Why suffer another ice pick in the ear? The first one was bad enough!

Get a Bimbo to sing it and you get a bimbo version!
I too am glad Rosanne got wacked by the log.
