We had a discussion about the Anthem recently...these two renditions came to light. Very enjoyable...

Well that is a little lighter than I expected. Here’s some hard rock National Anthem:

I liked Jimi Hendrik’s version better.

Apparently, Warner Bros are greedy, money grubbing agents who won’t let you listen to it.

After all, ITS STILL COPYWRITED AFTER 40 YEARS!

Sergei Rachmaninov plays “The Star Spangled Banner”

Simple and dignified. The way it should be.

Very cool. We need to see more of that kind of thing...patriotic messages wrapped in a package that young people will accept, open and listen to.

That said, I'm going to do a shameless self-plug and submit for y'all's approval my own song, "Old Glory". The recording and the video aren't nearly as polished as the Madison Rising vid, but it's a shot across the bow of anyone who wants to burn the flag, diminish the military and it's traditions, take "In God We Trust" off the currency, and remove the Pledge from the classroom. Hope you enjoy.
