It was truly amazing. For some strange reason the screen on my computer got really blurry towards the end?

Rousing rendition, but I don’t like the stylizing. To me, the song should build as it nears the last stanza. His voice is perfect for it and he can hit the notes!

He really belted it out. Had goose bumps all over. The singer is a believer in our country’s greatness.

This is the way to sing our National Anthem.So true. Why, oh why are so many people with no real talent booked to sing at games? It makes me cringe when they mutilate it or just sound like me in the shower... well, almost that bad.

IMO Whitneys’ version is one of the best ever !!!!! She had such an incredible voice and she sang that from her soul !!!!
