Why can't we get people to sing the National Anthem the way its supposed to be sung and without making mistakes..... Why must we have a bunch of clusterF'K's in this country sing it like a bunch of retards.... Who allows this kind of drivel? ....When I hear this shit, it goes against me like scratching ones nails on a black board in school.... Last time I heard it sung correctly was when Robert Merrill sang it at Yankee games....Too bad I'm a Mets fan.....

You know I have to agree wit ya on that one...I was thinking the same thing so I went out and looked for videos of famus folks singng it...not to many that did it right...most of the videos I sorted through were the big stars until I happened to click on one were a small child sang it..she made fewer mistakes than they did,,she was four...so I went through the pile again and only listened to those that childern sang..my word some of these were quite impressive..then I clicked on one were the Mlitary Cadet Choir sang it...have faith bro.Steve there are still some folks out there that will and do sing it correctly...

Normally, I'd have something ornery to say to that Paws, but you ain't to far from the truth and it just saddens me something fierce. Ain't gonner be no United States Of America to sing a salute to much longer the way things are going...

Boy, you said it all right there, brother-man! I get so damned tired of every little piece of sleaze-cake who fancies themselves a singer murdering our National Anthem! The song is to be presented with solemn virtue as with the delivery of a sacred hymn. I am nearly 55 years old, a bit out of shape, and with chronic bronchitis and asthma, yet I can still hit every note without my voice cracking or warbling! Just the way the music teacher insisted that we do it back in grade school...serious, and respectful. This song or any hymn is not the place to try to showcase one's voice and see how 'ghetto trash' you can sound. I don't give a darn how they caterwaul and howl when doing their own genre of music, but by golly, do this one (or religious songs) the way they were written, or I am gonna turn your sorry arse off! As I head to work in the mornings, they always play the National Anthem at 6:00 am. That is how I determine whether I am on time or if I need to speed things up a bit. One group, Ricochet, does a multipart harmony acapella that will bring tears of joy to your eyes, however when Faith Hill gets on there with all her 'Whitney Houston' caterwauling, I hit the off button! And the way Christina Agulera did it, they should have shot her for treason!
