Not bad.

At the 50 second mark, what’s that all about on the flight deck of the Vinson?

[BigFreakinToad]

Bar is pretty low then. At least it was semi understandable

[Mean Daddy]

Personally, they should get rid of the Star & play Ray Charles version America the Beautiful before every event.

[subterfuge]

Horrible imo. He even repeated one line IIRC. NOT even in the top 50 all time.

[dware]

It was ok, but doesn’t beat out Whitney Houston’s version.

[CodeToad]

Maybe if you have low standards.

[stanne]

When they start out with a tempo that slow, you can see the participants on the field and in the game audience grimacing. At that level it is a hostage situation

We do not want to see all that hair on anyone especially someone over 23 years old

So no

No one beats Whitney

Her smile alone puts that bar way higher than any of these mopes can even hope to get in the same league. Species.

[DennisR]

Whitney’s will never be overshadowed.

[stanne]

Nope

Just jumbo trim this at superbowl 60 and from then on. That’s all

[Fiji Hill]

I noticed that they didn’t televise “Lift Every Voice and Sing”—the so-called “black national anthem.”

[dfwgator]

The best one that almost never gets mentioned is Tom Sullivan’s from SB X.

[stanne]

Nope

Just jumbo tron this at superbowl 60 and from then on. That’s all

It was good, but Whitney, may she rest in piece, set the standard that has never been matched for her rendition of The Star Spangled Banner.

IMHO, anytime TSSB is sung, it should make your eyes misty and your heart swell . . .

[Jane Long]

Only, WRONG!

NOTHING/NO ONE does it better than Whitney!

[b4me]

Vinson: looks like more sore losers looking to get themselves a talking to.

[dforest]

This was chosen for next year’s halftime show.

[kenmcg]

It sucked!!! Chris Stapleton’s version is up there with Witney’s.

[Wuli]

No. His rendition was, to me, just O.K., not exemplary.

[Ann Archy]

Is the WRITER the SINGER??? I thought it was below average!

SANDY PATTY is the BEST!

[USS Alaska]

Hands down the best National Anthem ever to be sung at the Super Bowl. Yes, this even beats out Whitney Houston's version.

NFW!

Whitney Houston made tens of millions of patriots cry, out loud and without shame.

While yesterdays singing was very smooth and beautiful, it did not have the same effect {and could not because of the attack on America}.

[Preachin']

Chris Stapleton’s version was much better.
