This is the BEST rendition of the national anthem. No one has surpassed it, and probably never will
Never.. she literally said she couldn't go out there unless she was giving it her all for the soldier's family 1:57
Well although different Chris Stapleton is right up there!!!
@@krisschobelock4973right where .. be realistic
@krisschobelock4973 Naw, ain't touchin Whitney
And nobody ever will surpass this version.
I was in Saudi Arabia when this occurred. We were getting ready for the ground war against Iraq. This brings tears to my eyes every time I see this.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My dad was over there around that time. My
mother and I were in Germany when he got deployed. Salute to you!🫡
Thank for your service!
💖
Me too. What a memory.
Thank you for fighting for our freedom
This performance was so iconic they actually released it as a single.
I remember this vividly and remember thinking that I'd never hear the Anthem sung this beautifully again. I was right.
I remember watching it with family and friends at a super bowl party. It was in 7th grade and knew that we had all just seen something that we probably wouldn't experience again. I still feel that way♥️
This is the definition of effortless singing. She was completely relaxed while delivering an incredibly powerful vocal.
And you can tell she had more she could have blown that stadium away
Extreme national spotlight, hot night, unparalleled performance. Bearly broke at sweat!
Whitney Houston’s National Anthem was the best the National Anthem ever sounded! 🇺🇸
That high note at the end brings a tear to my eye🔥🔥
That is how you do a national anthem…and I’m a Canadian👍
I have listened to Whitney's rendition probably hundreds of times and I still get goosebumps from head to toe. Absolutely flawless and so true to how it was meant to be sung without any frills....just power, control and voice!!! RIP GOAT
Nobody can match Whitney's anthem performance
True story!!
Marvin Gaye nba allstar at the forum in l.a.
I love how proud and happy she looks.
This is the most joyous version of the anthem you’ll ever hear as well as the most skillfully executed vocal.
imagine that, she is not wearing a string bikini, rubbing herself and gyrating all over the place. yet somehow she managed to lift the spirits of an entire nation. just sheer talent!! God Bless you Whitney Houston.
Oh yeah this is the all time greatest IMO. Her voice is a miracle. And I love the way she looked like it was too easy. Just smiling and waving 😂😂
She lip-synched it. That’s why it looked easy.
@@CodyCha She was required to, but it was done in one take and she still sang with the mic not on. IMO if she’d been able to sing it live it would have been just as stellar.
@@lanamartin9107 no, it was not don’t in one take. The producer said “most of it came from the first take” but it was definitely edited. Garth Brooks sang it live 2 years after Whitney sang it.
@@CodyCha Lol u sound so mad. it was prerecorded and she sang into a dead mic. nobody sings the anthem live because the nfl doesnt want them to so no technical difficulties happen. stop coming up with that narrative that she lipsynced because u can clearly see that shes sweating…. and garth brooks cant sing bye.
@@diorrboyyyy don’t get your butt hurt. I’m just stating fact. She would not have sounded that great if she has sung it live. Garth Brooks sang it live against NFL demands two years after Whitney sang it.
I think we should also mention how beautifully that orchestra performed too. Whitney's voice with that beautiful orchestra was perfection.
Her vocal ability was made for THIS song........❤🙌🏿
This was exactly 1 month before I was to enter boot camp in the US Navy. I was at a party where all these guys were drinking beer, playing poker & smoking cigars but the second Whitney started singing, the entire room went silent for the remaining of her performance and it was something to see these big burly macho men with tears in their eyes. My all time favorite performance of our National Anthem.
This was right after the Persian Gulf War started. This was a very heartfelt and beautiful moment in our history to support our Troops and the American people.
Whitney later on recorded this Anthem to record and had donated all profits to charity. Such an amazing and talented person she was. Thank you for this memory.
No this was the version that was released and it was pre-recorded. 99% of it was from the first take of the recording. All of her profits went to charity, Arista kept their cut. When they re-released it after 911 Whitney convinced the record company to donate their profits to charity
@@toriboy25 SHE SANG INTO A DEAD MIC. SHES CLEARLY SWEATING LIKE HELLO….
@@toriboy25Yes she lip synced but it was still great.
Whitney Houston was the only artist to take the national anthem to number one on the Billboard charts and sell a million copies then ten years later it went back on billboard charts to number six no one has ever done that since.
No one on this planet can touch this. The best female singer of all time.
No one will ever touch this. Write it in stone.
She's the best singer of all time in my opinion
In my book that's Mariah Carey but Whitney Houston is up there
No that's not opinion. That is FACT
Yes, and Ann Wilson is right up there as well.
@@whenisdinner2137 nope 💀
Whitney's the greatest vocalist of all time
She destroys Mariah vocally by a thousand miles at least
@@Swahili14 that's for sure
She was amazing ❤
Whitney was the best. Such a beautiful voice and so powerful, thank you Whitney for leaving this for us to continue to enjoy your music and God given incredible voice. Rest in peace.
That is just a talent that we see very, very rarely. A once in a lifetime voice. RIP Whitney.
All the best to her memory and family.
Cheers.
whitney used to sing with shock waves.. the clearest power vocalist, unreal 🏆
Whitney’s version will always be the pinnacle. Effortless.
the best rendition bar none.. makes me tear up and goosebumps every time.....
I cry everytime I hear this
5:37 She will always be the best. No one can ever top that.
It's the best rendition of the Star Spangled Banner I've ever heard.
Hey Guys, This was probably the best rendition of our National Anthem ever!!! This was during the Persian Gulf War Operation Desert Storm, Security for this Super Bowl was elevated to it's highest level around the stadium and the entire country!!! It was also one of the greatest Super Bowl games ever played as the NY Giants defeated the Buffalo Bills by 1 point and it came down to the last play of the game!!! "Shout-Out" to you guys for this reaction!!! USA!!! USA!!!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸Best version ever!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Can you imagine being one of the people she smiled that angelic smile at?! What a beautiful soul!
I'm not even American but this brings a tear to my eye. That was in the good old days when Americans loved their country, too bad it's changed
This makes me sad that you are not American and even you can tell the change in attitudes toward our country that many of our citizens feel. It's heartbreaking. If they only knew how easy we have it compared to other places. Not saying that we don't have difficulties but we have it pretty easy in comparison.
We certainly have some issues but we still love our Country.
@@donna8818 some issues? We are more divided than ever. Everyone is hateful and mean and everyone hates each other now. I’m ashamed to live here now. Never thought I’d say that. So sad
This idea that people can't criticize their own country when their country doesn't show love to them is absurd
No, real Americans still love it, and know we have work to do...xo
Her anthem was so good , it became a record, sooo good.
I'm British but this performance always made me cry. She was the best.
You would truly get a full appreciation for her amazing voice by reacting to I Will Always Love You from the movie The Body Guard.
A God given and heaven sent beautiful voice
Unmatched talented standard bearer singer
Great singer is an understatement. The girl was a medium from the angels.
Yes she was a powerhouse with her beautiful voice! This is the best version ever. 😊
Many consider this the single best live performance of her life. I agree. STILL chokes me up when I hear it.
Best rendition ever
Never been done better. Boy I miss Whitney.
Best national anthem ever!!!
Anytime Whitney sings, I tear up.
New Sub! Whitney delivered such a powerful and beautiful voice so effortlessly! She smiled and made it all seem so easy! Rest in peace Whitney Houston!
Thx for coming along!
Best performance of the National Anthem ever
The Dallas Cowboys won that game. It was a day that I'll never forget. My favorite football team and my favorite singer at that time. I even stayed home from church that Sunday to watch Cowboys play and the following week I purchased the tape of her singing the National Anthem at the Superbowl
Whitney is #1 on this song
I have this single. Just amazing.
The greatest singer the world has ever known.
She is still known as “The Voice”
I was 25 years old during this SB and just got off active duty from the Navy. I was a Hospital Corpsman and the Navy was preparing to send me to Kawait for Desert Storm with a Marine Division out of 29 Palms had I re-inlisted. There was a tremendous amount of National pride at that time in a very united and much different country than today. The context of the time made her rendition even more special than it already was. She was a GOAT for sure!
Nobody surpasses Whitney...
I loved this so much that I purchased the VHS video of it at the time and have watched it many times since. I can't actually recall purchasing any other music that way previous to that. I doubt I still have it as I haven't had a VCR in years. But yeah - IMO they should just play this at every sporting event. This is the best it has ever been done.
I still get chills every time I hear this version. ❤❤
This was during the time of the Gulf War in the early 1990s-- hence all the American flags.
She's the best!!!!!! ❤Whitney sings I have nothing and it's great! ❤❤ MY favorite pop star!!
Whitney was the baseline for live performances....she showed with minimal makeup and attire and was still so memberable.
We all heard this American Anthem all Around the World even here in N.Z R.I.L Whitney Houston ❤
My family and I (we're a US military family) were assigned to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia just at the end of Desert Storm. When we arrived in Riyadh, there was still smoke coming down from the oil fields in Kuwait that Saddam Hussein had set ablaze. We weren't sure what we would be able to take to Saudi Arabia, but the one thing we wanted to make sure to take with us was the video of this amazing performance by the late, great, Ms. Whitney Houston.
By the way people will drone on about how this isn't "Live". No Super Bowl rendition of the anthem is done live any more. They have a backing track in case certain mics go out or background noise is too great, any number of technical difficulties can happen. She did her recording in 1 take AND was still singing live anyway as you can tell by the sheen of perspiration Whitney ALWAYS got when she sang live. Also the bulging veins on her neck you don't get by just whispering the anthem into the mic. She was still singing but the back up track IS probably what we likely heard.
Best One Ever.. ♠W.G.
I'm 57 years of age, and I remember when she first came out with her first hit 'You give good love' although that year she had won best new female artist and for a song called 'Saving all my love for you', I was instantly in crush love. She was my crush and I swore then she was the one I was looking for. I was like 16/17 ish at the time. She was on a different level than other artist of the time because of that voice and more so her youth. She was barely 20 when she broke out in to stardom(Thankyou Clive Davis). Fast forward a few years later, and after a stint in the Navy, I had come back to New York, and the Giants and Bills just happen to be in the Superbowl that year. It seemed as if everyone was watching and we were all meant to watch this particular Superbowl, as the nation had been gripped by the Gulf War and Recession that had taken hold. When she had performed this, its as if she was performing it for all time and for all of us. We knew it was something special and inside deep down we knew to cherish it as we would never again feel the likes of a performance like ever again. This to me is the greatest Anthem performance ever, and I have seen numerous! This one will always hold a special place in the hearts of those of the time because of the significance of it at the time. This performance since has never been duplicated, and probably never ever will be, ever. What an incredible and beautiful talent gone way too soon. My youthful crush!
Whitney " The Voice" Houston was a beast before the term became a thing. Rest easy queen. Still sorely missed. Gone but not forgotten.
Queen whitney
I was there and I cried then, as I am crying , unfortunately for different reasons. I was proud to be an American then and so to now. She sang from her heart and soul. God bless you Whitney and may you rest in peace. Lord knows we're not.
Her magnificent voice was God given!
I remember Whitney doing this.. I was in my early 20's and truly thought no one would ever come close... no one ever has with her kind of power.. Chris did it in a totally different way and to me it was just as powerful.. I will never say one is better than the other because it's different ways of singing the song and both are beyond amazing to me.
She was called 'The Voice.'
She killed it
Whitney was The Voice…powerful, gorgeous. ❤❤
I remember this so well.
I wouldn't say Whitney was cute, she was SUPERB!!!!!
She enjoyed the hell out of doing it
Love your reaction to this stunning version of the American national anthem, I'm British and I'm in awe of Whitneys version of it, Chris Stapleton and Whitney Houston's version Wil go down in American history
Listen to Whitney’s performance at the Music Billboard Awards 1993!!
The Voice!!🎤🩷🩷🩷 known as “THE VOICE”!!!
I was 23 since then. Yet remember the day of 1991😍.
Sensational rendition.
just after desert storm kicked off who knew we would be back there 12 years later
My heart soars when I watch this video, and aches when I remember she's gone.
GREATEST.OF.ALL.TIME. PERIOD!
Whitney sang it effortlessly like Chris did.. but it was during the Gulf War when Whitney sang it and she had that orchestra behind her.. amazing
Stapleton's rendition was reflective and somber. Whitney's was triumphant and proud. Both are excellent in their own way.
Whitney Houston all the way🎉❤
The reason why this stands out more than any other, is because what the US was going through at the time. America was at war for the first time since Vietnam, and there was a growing fear that the Soviet Union would enter the fight, and bring about a nuclear exchange. The Super Bowl was even set to be canceled that year.
The nation was concerned for the safety of our soldiers, and the outcome of the war that was going into the ground phase. Many were claiming this to be the end of days. So when Whitney came out, and preformed the national anthem in the manner that she did. She not only calmed those fears, she really united a nation this night.
This is why I think this is more memorable to those around at the time.
A special moment I'll never forget!!! Whitney's version runs circles around Chris Stapleton's whose version I did not like at all!!
Great reaction! I LOVED Chris Stapleton's version and this is on par. Her version actually hit the pop charts! If you don't know Whitney's catalog, dig in. Rolling Stone Magazine recently ranked the greatest female singers of all time and she was second, only to Aretha Franklin. She was/is EPIC. Start with "I Will Always Love You" and go from there. I agree with Rolling Stone that she was the second greatest vocalist of all time.
Love love love love ❤️ ❤❤❤.
Wish you put on the film presentation-this has all the wow of my radio!
I didn’t know there was anyone who doesn’t know Whitney’s music. I Will Always Love You is a must. Be sure to find the video with clips from the movie The Bodyguard starring Whitney and Kevin Costner.
Those are car alarms, not sirens. Fly over by jets causes this.
2 WORDS.... MIC DROPPED!!!!!!!
As great as this performance was, and IMO it's the greatest of all time, her live performance of "All The Man I Need" from "HBO's Live from Welcome Home Heroes" is equally as stirring. Whitney was, and to me remains, the greatest pop singer of the R&R/R&B era.
Totally agree...that version of the song is just stunning....the voice from that tiny frame is just extraordinary ❤
This was the best ever done.
You guys should check out a video on how the anthem was written. It called "The National Anthem Like You've Never Heard Before"
This was pre recorded and she lip synced it was not live but the recording is and will always be the best version ever heard of the American national anthem and I'm Irish.......
The most amazing voice of all. Time
A great-sounding version but it wasn't live. This was pre-recorded and sounded great but it wasn't done on the day of the Super Bowl . With the Gulf war and everything that was going on at the time, the country had rallied together. Several weeks later that version of The Star-Spangled Banner was released as a single.
It made it to #20 on the Billboard charts. Within the first eight days of its release as a single it sold 750,000 copies..
Yeah thx for the news. It wasn't her decision. She did it always live on her concerts.
