Star Spangled Banner Challenge
Madison Rising website ^ | Madison Rising

Posted on 09/10/2012 6:30:34 PM PDT by Two Kids' Dad

This video was previously posted by another FReeper back in July but I just became aware of it and wanted to share it with all of you. It's an amazing rock-n-roll rendition of the Star Spangled Banner and has some nice video imagery intermixed with band shots. Enjoy.


TOPICS: Arts/Photography; Music/Entertainment
KEYWORDS: banner; madisonrising; spangled; star
It's a great way to spend 4:09. I'm not connected to them in any way, but hope they become more popular.

The liberal taking head yakkers are wrong. I now have The Star Spangled Banner on my MP3 after that last post by a FReeper. This is different but I like it.

I am not interested in hearing the Star Spangled Banner played any way , but the way it is written. No Thank You.

Yeah... It is nice and rocking; however, in an attempt to differentiate myself from the many renditions of our national anthem at ball games; etc., I tried singing all four stanzas.

I was not Whitney Houston (she was still alive when I was recorded singing it) and wanted to do something different than the late Whitney who really owned the song.

People already know I tried to do all four stanzas so I won't link it, but our national anthem can be found on my website if anyone is still interested.

Maybe a bit of musical talent, but I’m a traditionalist when it comes to the National Anthem. This doesn’t do anything for me.

Good to see kids get excited about their country and national anthem. Thanks for the post.

Lots of people don't know there's four stanza to it.

Here are all 4 verses, the last 2 are most appropriate to our current situation.

Thanks but I’ve read them before I posted. I didn’t want to put them all up here but did find that prior post from 2006.

That YouTube reminded me of the sing alongs that they had in the movies when I was a kid, makes it easier (for me) to learn the words,
