I'm a Brit. But I strongly agree that if you're singing Star Spangled Banner you should sing it AS IT IS. Doing ad libs and extra strenuous notes just MURDERS it!!
It’s about the war of 1812, a war no one won. Francis Scott Key was on a British prison ship to negotiate an exchange. It’s about a man alone on your enemies ship that is bombarding your country and wondering the whole night if your home would remain in tact. The people in that fort are your friends, fathers, brothers, and cousins. And then the relief of seeing your flag still standing. It is pretty much about our version of the blitz. We lived to fight another day. After the British army was forced to retreat from DC because of a tornado and heavy storms, we took back our capital and fought until a standstill. Alot of these ad libs and whatnot take away from the emotion and the meaning behind the lyrics and what Key was conveying with them. It was originally a poem and was later put to the tune of an English drinking song.
I'm an Aussie and had a big chuckle and was looking for my ear plugs after the first few performances !! We've definitely had our share of complete shockers doing our anthem... although , thankfully NOT as atrocious as the American ones !!! 🙄🤦😂😂😂🇦🇺👍😎

Like millions of soldiers die for us and/or get ther arms or legs blown off ther body in a firey bloody nerve end losing mess for us, The normal people "with no voice" and then famous celebrity assholes chop it to pieces like they aint got enough blood yet, like just sing it the way it was meant to be but with your voice, not extra voice inflections.

If Josh Groban had sung the national anthem by himself, it would have been amazing. He didn't need a freaking BAND behind him!! This is Josh Groban we're talking about!! JOSH GROBAN!!!!!!
He DID sing it alone, it sounds so much better. He sang for the LA Lakers since LA is his hometown. He sounds amazing alone. I'm a die hard Grobanite, I'm upset they played him dirty like this. But he agreed to perform with them, anyways. So it's his fault too.
All of them smiling and laughing had my dying while it was happening. I love that she gives like a side sexy smirk like "yea. I got this". No honey. They laughin at you, not smiling cause you're hot.
The sad thing is I love Chaka Khan; LOVE her, but she already showed off to me that she could sing (for five decades). Just sing the National Anthem how it's supposed to be sang.
I TOTALLY BLAME the producer's , co-ordinaters , agents/ musical directors because when these people are booked, they should be told and it should be STIPULATED that they are to sing it " as is " ... WITHOUT voice acrobatics and ad ons and inappropriate , unwanted " personal " vocal WORKOUTS !!! And , there would've been behind the scenes previous practice sessions and SURELY the manager's etc and other people connected to the event, would've heard the " star " during rehearsal and heard and seen their " intention " of how they were going to perform it !! And upon hearing that the event music co-ordinator should've then given that individual instructions on what to do and NOT TO DO !!! It's a FAIL on MANY levels !!! 🙄🤦
Rebekah Lee You know showboating is fune(see Demi Lovato) if you actually know how to do it for those people that don’t they should stick to what’s on the page
When I was in middle school, I sang the national anthem in front of my class. I spent the weeks leading up to it reading the lyrics and practicing to make sure I didn't make any mistakes. So I find it crazy that some of these professionals forgot the lyrics. My stakes were significantly less and I feel like I prepared more then some of these guys.

I still stand by that the best Star Spangled Banner rendition was Whitney Houston. And they should have just had Josh Groban do it solo. He's great too.
the best rendition of the US National Anthem is by the Legendary Whitney Houston...hers is the best... it brought tears to everyone ... i am not an American but i know she nailed it...Rest Well Whitney...🙏

I´m taking the concept of presenting the national anthem a little differently than from the point of view of sales. And that leaves Whitney Houston somewhere in the middle.

Victoria Zarlenga, Kat Deluna, Roseanne Barr, Chaka Khan and Fergie suck at singing National Anthem. I feel bad for Jesse McCarthy and Christina Aguilera.
Aguilera at least had killer vocals and made the error seem seamless. Honest, I think very few Americans in attendance even noticed until they heard it on the news that evening.

Great list, but, speaking for my fellow classical singers, I understand you have to know your audience, but calling operatic renditions "cruel and unusual punishment" seems a bit mean and extreme. She knew the words and sang them in tune. True, Opera isn't really for sports, but getting a higher spot on the list than that diva-finger pitch trainwreck is unfair in my opinion. Love your lists guys! Thanks for giving me sanity at the end of my night, guys ❤️
That’s not what they actually said though. They didn’t say it was a cruel and unusual punishment because it was operatic it was the drawn out over the top nature that did that. If they meant all operatic performances Renee Fleming would’ve been on this list.
Why the HECK would ANYONE book an opera performer for events like these ??!! It's just inappropriate and NOT the right environment for that style...no matter how good they are !! 🙄
"Steven Tyler" "Towards The End He Slid Into A Particularly Egregious Note That Sounded Like He Was Fighting Off An Assailant." I'm sorry, but I died of laughter! 😂😂😂
Chaka’s wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t traditional. That’s how Chaka has been singing for the last 50 years. You expected her to suddenly become Beverly Sills?
Thank you thank you people clearly don't knew her music cause if they did this will not be one the list put some RESPECT on her dame name she was nor bad at all
@@BitterBetty76 America is known as the land of the free and the home of the brave, right? So why shouldn't people exercise their "freedom" by "bravely" putting some of their own individuality into the singing of the anthem? Did you know the song was originally intended to be a march? It wasn't sung at all.
Sorry, she wasn't good enough for me to listen to her actual music. And I mean that even before she butchered the anthem. Her "band" was a one hit wonder. She should have stopped there.
TheShaun The Black Eyed Peas were one of the most popular bands of the 2000s 😂 A lot of their songs were top 10 hits. Even her solo Duchess album did really well. This national anthem performance, however, was a disaster.
@@WhoKilledWesley Not me personally. It's been on other lists similar to this one. I guess the reason is because the way he sang it, he turned the national anthem into one of his concert performances.
Why they would have asked Roseanne in the first place still baffles me it was ad if she took it as a joke. I don't know what Fergie was on or thinking with that dumpster fire performance
But Rosanne Barr is not a singer shes a comedienne so when she was asked to do it what did people expect? I mean in fairness she should have been told we expect you to do this as if you're Maria Carey.
Which Anthem fail made you cringe the hardest!?
Can I have a shoutout?
Edit: (1-29-22) I don't know why I said this lol
Fergie!!!
Fergie all the way hahaha
RandomMan12864 shut up stop trying to promote your channel
Itz Sh0ckerz sure XD
Honestly Josh Groban was done dirty. If he did it by himself, it would’ve been great. Adding in Flea was just like...what...
the band completely ruin his performance
The instrumental sounded like something from a video game. His voice is a lot better than that, so his voice deserved a better band.
I'm glad somebody else thought he did a good job - don't think it's fair to lump him in same category as Victoria Zarlenga, who literally made me cover my ears!
I jumped when she sang
Agree!
Don't blame fergie, she forgot to bring her autotune that day.

Sure she did lol 😂

Nobody did the Anthem better them Whitney Houston, in my opinion.

"...And Uncle Bobby from 'Proud Family.'"
I fucking lost it.
"Steven Tyler"
"Towards The End He Slid Into A Particularly Egregious Note That Sounded Like He Was Fighting Off An Assailant."
I'm sorry, but I died of laughter! 😂😂😂
Me too! 😂😂😂😂
Brandon Ruiz Awesome lol! 👏😂👍
I lost it when I heard that. 🤣🤣💀💀
Darque Queen I was literally wheezing lol! 😂😂😂
The sad part is he didn't die too. He should have after that horrible mess.
3:00 my dog started howling at this
🤣🤣🤣
Not only your dog, everybody could helped her better if they start howling to her 😅
😂😂😂
Chaka’s wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t traditional. That’s how Chaka has been singing for the last 50 years. You expected her to suddenly become Beverly Sills?
Exactly it wasn't
Thank you thank you people clearly don't knew her music cause if they did this will not be one the list put some RESPECT on her dame name she was nor bad at all
@@tauqueishachester9669 Exactly , that's just how she sings, n she sounded great! Fergies was BADDD! Not sure why/how people are mixing them up🤦🏾♂️
The only respect needed to be directed at our national anthem. It's not time to be YOU its time to be American. That is all.
@@BitterBetty76 America is known as the land of the free and the home of the brave, right? So why shouldn't people exercise their "freedom" by "bravely" putting some of their own individuality into the singing of the anthem? Did you know the song was originally intended to be a march? It wasn't sung at all.
Rosanne's rendition became an "early internet sensation"? It was called the news back then.
RIP Whitney you can rest knowing you did it well.
I’m guessing #1 is Fergie, who made everyone go loco.
Hopefully someone gets the joke
Edit: DANG I was right
She is a great singer. She just........ F*cked....Up....Hard......
Make them boys go loco. Aye.
Sorry, she wasn't good enough for me to listen to her actual music. And I mean that even before she butchered the anthem. Her "band" was a one hit wonder. She should have stopped there.
@@-TheShaun- BEP had more than just one hit...what are you talking about?
TheShaun The Black Eyed Peas were one of the most popular bands of the 2000s 😂 A lot of their songs were top 10 hits. Even her solo Duchess album did really well. This national anthem performance, however, was a disaster.
"Victoria Zarlenga"
"Her Voice Strained Just Enough To Resemble A Dying Animal."
Me: Dead! 😂💀
mark kevorkian Oh my god lol, you aren't wrong! 😂😂😂
Was there a cart below camera running over her toes the whole time?
TheShaun We'll never know, but it definitely sounded like it lol! 😂😂😂
who else is here after ingrid andress’ rendition at the home run derby? i think we need another update to this list lol
That would be me…straight down the rabbit hole
This was so damn funny I can't .
1.)Carl Lewis
2.)Officer Harris
3.)Feirgy
I'm British so this is a funny but embarrassing list of things i've never seen before lol
And it's even funnier and more ironic that The Star Spangled Banner's melody comes from an old British pub song.
johnnycatt it’s funny cause we won😂
@@tannermcgee3758 what did you win? Oh….you mean what OTHERS won? lol.
That Ezra guy was hilarious 😂 He didn’t know the lyrics at all!
Omg Uncle Bobby! Definitely forgot about that gem of a Disney character 😂
"The stars were still there" im weak🤣🤣🤣
When they Compared her to uncle Bobby I couldn’t breathe for a whole hour 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Guys, can we just sing the United States' National Anthem the way it is SUPPOSED TO BE SUNG.
What way is that?
To be fair, national anthems can be pretty tough to sing. Also, I'm surprised R. Kelly didn't make the list.
Jeremy Williams R. Kelly wasn’t bad so what are you talking about
@@WhoKilledWesley Not me personally. It's been on other lists similar to this one. I guess the reason is because the way he sang it, he turned the national anthem into one of his concert performances.
Lmaoo i absolutely die everything i see his performance. The look on the faces of the audience was hilarioussss
Why they would have asked Roseanne in the first place still baffles me it was ad if she took it as a joke. I don't know what Fergie was on or thinking with that dumpster fire performance
Pedophiles don't know how to sing our anthem.
But Rosanne Barr is not a singer shes a comedienne so when she was asked to do it what did people expect? I mean in fairness she should have been told we expect you to do this as if you're Maria Carey.
It was so overrbearing
Perhaps not, but she could have at least shown America some respect
From what I read, she didn't want to do it. But Tom Arnold made her. What a disaster.
Gotta update this with Ingrid Andress
If Chaka did the Anthem during her prime she will slay it!
