Is it just me??? When did our national anthem become a pop song, ripe for the interpretation of these pop artists who sing them before events???
Sometimes they sound okay, but if you think about it, really, its our national anthem, there is one way it should be sung, and there should be no changing it with artistic impersonations!
BTW, do ever hear the Canadian anthem or any other anthems done so differently every time??? NO, you dont, and I dont like it being done to my anthem either, am I over reacting???
Artful Dodger: I don't, I think songs are sung that way because even tho they have a great voice, they are not capable of holding a note for any amount of time
Artful Dodger: The point is that its a traditional kind of song... what if the army started doing it to their marching songs??? You sure you arent a closet progressive liberal?
Czuch:No I'm not a progressive. ;) But when it comes to music, there are certain musical tastes I have that allow for individual expression. Usually I'm a traditionalist when it comes to most things. Music is no exception. But thee is a lot to be said for interpretation and putting emotion into a song. I'd say that when you sing together, you sing it the traditional way. When a solo, you sing it your way (ala Frank Sanatra)
Artful Dodger: I missed the songs, I was talking in general, as a musician, singing where they slide all over the scale bugs me I think it takes more talent to hold the note
Vikings: I see. Well I think for some that's true. Sandy Patty certainly could hold the notes. I've never thought of it as I can't sing either way. I sound like Paul Stooky.
Czuch: I'd normally agree with you on this one,but Hudson lost 3 members of her family recently in a savage attack,if heart and soul have any value,she delivered
