My first thought too. Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. "If dogs don't go to Heaven, I want to go where they go" Will Rogers | |||

I don't have the skill to post a video, but the Hendrix guitar version is my favorite performance of the anthem. | |||

. LeAnn Rimes, with her exceptional voice has constantly performed the National Anthem with respect. This is her at around 14 or 15 years old singing at MLB's 1997 All Star Game: www.YouTube.com/watch?v=_77xNhyij9k . | |||

She was "cancelled" by the NFL due to vaccine status and made a minor news blip last year. I thought it was a rather nice rendering. _________________________ An unarmed man can only flee from evil and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it. - Col Jeff Cooper NRA Life Member Long Live the Super Thirty-Eight | |||

The anthem is about America, not the singer. It should be performed with dignity, as written, to a certain tempo, and without superfluous vocalizations or frills. IMO. My favorite rendition is by the Academy choirs at Super Bowl XXXIV. I could do without the US Army Herald Trumpets, they kind of take away from the singers. But the choirs have it right, as it is supposed to be sung. When in doubt, mumble | |||

As good as that video is, it still doesn't show the level of intensity or how loud it would get when Wayne sang. You could stand there and shout into the ear of the guy standing next to you and he couldn't hear you. Brings back memories of what Chicago was like before the Communists took it over. | |||
