By far the greatest rendering of our great national anthem ever performed by man or woman! It must be noted however that what set the tone for this monumental performance was the very Noble and brilliant hymnlike and very understated piano accompaniment supplied by Meatloaf's pianist!!! It was all of these elements coming together that produced this performance of the ages!!! God bless you meatloaf!!!

This is how the national anthem should be sung. No fancy vocal customizations. Just power, emotion and respect.

I was at this game. Got a single ticket through a ticket lottery. I remember paying $65 for it. I was seated a level above home plate, where a lot of the players’ wives/girlfriends were seated. Great game!

Is this absolutely adorable or WHAT?! Thank you for posting. Look at the people getting emotional, players and those in the audience. The cheers.

What has gone wrong with us?

Meat loved baseball and was very knowledgeable about the game. He could have been a scout.

He coached his daughter's JV softball team for two years when budget cuts would have basically eliminated the team.

We lost a great conservative American who never went “woke”.

Chilling. And the players were clean-cut and respectful.

I loved Mr. Loaf...always will.

He had a voice like no other. And when he sang fast, you could understand every word clearly.

I don’t think Mr. Loaf would have minded. It would have made him laugh.

What has gone wrong with us?

Communism in all of its forms is what ails US. Fascist, Leninist, Marxist, Maoist, Stalinist and many more flavors. Heck, we've got it all.

Next time some one asks me, 'How was the Meatloaf?' I'll reply 'Superb!'
