Usually the whole opening of national anthem/prayer is very well done, I missed this though so am in no place to comment.

I don't watch NASCAR but I agree that the ridiculous "interpretations" I've heard are really annoying.

The National Anthem is very difficult to sing. The trick is to start off at the low end of the voice register. But if somebody has the upper range the result makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

Uhhhh...the coast is clear. She's done singing. You're missing a good race.

But that was pretty horrendous.

Personally I feel the national anthem should be changed to America the Beautiful.......

Let's have a little vocabulary test, shall we?

Let's see how many one-word descriptions we can come up with to describe that massacre.

I'll start. Massacre.

I did the same. Turned it off because it was an insult.

Am now watching John Wayne in "Fort Apache" on FMC.

She also managed to hit my pet peeve button.

The word is perilous - not paruless.

Just damn!

Here here!

I hate when the sex kitten wannabes sing the National Anthem and butcher it!

We have called NASCAR many times. They actually seem to be trying to have it done right at the Cup races this year but the Busch people can't seem to find anything but sex kittens.

It couldn't have been worse than Carl Lewis. I think Charlie Steiner is still laughing about that.

Yeah I hate those 'stylists' versions too..any song they sing
becomes more about them then about the music or the lyrics..
