Did you watch the Superbowl on Sunday? Did you catch the National Anthem? Here is my down and dirty on the supposed "remix" of our Nations Anthem. It stunk and was a downright disgrace. There are just some songs you don't mess with and the National Anthem is THE ONE SONG! I don't care if some tone deaf, junkie rock star sings, just don't mess up the words. Oh, and I don't go for the "maybe she was nervous" excuse...She is a rock star, it is her job! Bull honky on being nervous. How would someone like it if I was too "nervous" to do CPR? What then?
Ok, I have jumped down off my soap box. For those of you that know me well, I really never talk about politics and really ride the fence on a lot of things but this...I dare say it angers me. After reading all the excuses on the internet about her flub being everything from the back up tape, delayed recording, etc., to a remix of the song, well it plain makes me crazy upset. I thought we Americans had more class than as to mess with our Nations Anthem. You don't hear Canada singing their song differently do you? "Oh Canada, our cold and wooded land." I didn't think so.
Ok, now I am really off my soap box. Hope you all enjoyed the actual game of the Superbowl as I think it was very exciting and enjoyed the excuse of another day to be with our neighbors and friends.
