The Cactus Cuties (group of 5 adorable little girls) sing the National Anthem before a basketball game.

Good old Lubbock, Texas!!!
I emailed this to everybody I could think of several weeks ago. I wish my dad (who died in 2002) could hear it.
Did you see it’s had four MILLION hits?
Awesome... goosebumps all over.
Beats Whitney Houston’s GD-awful LIP SYNCHED version of a few years back.
That was an amazing performance. Kudos and a big thank you to the one who trained them to sing so beautifully. The harmony was wonderful. It made me cry...
Who ARE those little girls?
Sisters?
Truly amazing.
God Bless TEXAS!!!
What a great version!
Here’s another great one performed by the great American baritone, Robert Merrill, from 1944, when he was called Merrill Miller. It’s nice to hear it sung with a guy who has a pair- the great images help too.

Wow I did NOT notice that...that’s fantastic.
Guns up!
Thank God for these little angels. Finally a version of the national anthem you can understand. No ebonics or shortened phrases a wonderful performance.
Great post...loved it!!
Just Wow!!
My wife was watching some lame show the other night and I came through the room as Morgan Fairchild was singing the Anthem. She did a good job ( while looking good ).
Wow.
Yes, by watching the hairs on my arms stand up, and a blurry screen. Just astounding.
I’ve never heard a big name professional do it any better. It should be played in the house and senate before the beginning of each work day.
A good rendition by the kids, but it distresses me to see how often nowadays the anthem is sung with the tempo of a funeral dirge.
