Title: National Athem
Post by: Teresa on August 22, 2008, 09:33:01 PM
EVER!    This is it bar none!




In all my life, no matter where it is played, I have yet to make it all the way through this great Anthem without getting choked up or misty-eyed. Gives me goosebumps.

Should be played every day in schools.

I agree with you, dna.  This is what turned me into a Martina McBride fan.  The one time that I heard her sing the Star Spangled Banner, it was done the way the song was written, with pride, just like a Kansas girl would do it.  It sickens me the way the song is twisted around and rearranged to try to make an impression.  It makes an impression all right.  Not a good one.

I have watched this video before and I just watched it again.  These girls do such a beautiful job of singing their national anthem.  Their parents should be very proud because these young girls have been taught right, and their talent is out of this world.

I was watching the game, don't ask me which one.......I don't remember,
But, I do remember the response from both the crowd and me when these girls
sang.............I can't believe the harmony and that is really a gift from God.

Thanks for sharing with us........Are we not blessed to live in AMERICA? !!!!
