.....my dad and I used to 'discuss' the WAY the National Anthem should be sung....as you might expect for having been born in 1929, he was totally old school...me, as a child of the 60s/70s, not so much....I know it is at times a very divisive song....wish it represented hope of what we COULD be....
That said, some of my favorites have been unusual in some degree...Jose Feliciano in 1971(almost got me kicked out of my family), Carlos Santana a couple of years ago at a GIANTS game...but I LOVED Stapleton's version last night....
Fire away...(btw...I would prefer America the Beautiful as our song)
