A Nation's song is worthy of reverence & should be preformed with a fire stoked from deep within the furnace that is your patriotism & I am sad to report that ours is rarely done so.
It is a seemingly unsingable song,with only Whitney Houston having pulled it off without a hitch & it shouldn't be this way.
Our song should be proud. It should be strong. It should speak to the very spirit that spurned this great experiment in Self Governance into the GREATEST SUPER POWER THIS WORLD HAS EVER SEEN.
And fixing this little Anthem issue would be relatively easy.
Just turn it into an instrumental.
Think this madness? Sit back & think to yourself.... Do I know all the words to my National Anthem? Go ahead... give it a go...
Now go ahead & see if you can whistle it.
My point exactly.
