The biggest moment any singer can ask for: "The Star Spangled Banner" at the Super Bowl. And Christina Aguilera messed up the lyrics. At about 51 seconds in, as she was about to sing the fourth line ("O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming"), she accidentally sang a hybrid of the second line: "What so proudly we watched, at the twilight's last streaming."

We have a communist as a president I don't think a majority of the people would have noticed but for the article.

I was afraid I was the only person in America who considered it screeching. But that’s what it was.

It’s very common that singers mess up the lyrics to the National Anthem...because they think they know the lyrics so well and they go blank. Happens all too often...and has to be terribly embarrassing to them.

What an ignorant cow!
You could hear the National Anthem sung perfectly at any high school sporting event in my town!

Next time, let my basset hounds sing it. They croon to Hank Williams like nobody’s business and listening to them softly howl with their eyes closed, nose pointing to heaven, to Patsy Cline will absolutely break your heart.

I like your plain talkin'!
Who's "entertaining" at half-time.....Peewee Herman?

True, but why didn’t she borrow Obama’s teleprompter?

NO, sorry...they applauded wildly every time she screeched out some mangling of the lyrics. What were you listening to??

I didn’t realise who she was. Did she swallow a truck or something? she is looking pretty thick these days.

Too many singers want it to be about them, rather than about the USA.
I couldn’t listen to her thru the end. Why not ask a sick cat to howl, and pretend the words are there somewhere?

Boomer immediately thereafter voiced his criticism. And wherever the radio feed was coming from cut to commercial. Thanks righttackle44.
