Re: F-Ing Worthless
Here's my take on this subject. Yes, it is our National Anthem. Yes, you as the singer have a great opportunity to show your skills, and pride in our country. HOWEVER, this great song was written way back. Back before your turkey gobbling undulations, your too high high notes, and your spin of how you think it should be sung. Sing the song, just as it is written, in the tempo and key it was written. Enjoy your applause and attention and go away. I have heard the National Anthem performed better by an 8 year old boy, than by most of these washout, has beens that some overpaid promoter convinced whatever venue they are performing at to "sing".
