"What does your country mean to you?" "It means everything to me, the only things that mean more are my God and my family" And oh man what a voice! I gotta send this around to the scout troop.

I hate it when someone tries to put a boogie woogie beat or caterwauls while thinking they're singing the national anthem, but that guy earned the right to sing it anyway he wants to sing it.

GeorgeNJ · Mar 4, 2012

I like the way Morgan sang the national antham and I'd gladly stand and remove my hat while he sang it, but it don't get any better than this right here.

I'm sorry but it was butchered just like every other Hollywood-type.

Watch the movie Hoosiers and the national anthem sung in the movie. That is how it should be sung/played.

OK so you say it was butchered.....where in the constitution or federal law do I find the guide line on just how it is to be sung?

I feel that after 20 years of service and service connected disabilities at 70% I can sing it any way I want to! I earned that right (US Army ret, Armor!)! THE HARD WAY! So did my father, 31 years active, WWII combat wounded vet! As did my father in law, 22 years, Korea, Viet Nam vet, my 2 BIL's with 8 years each active. My oldest son, 5.5 years active AF and my daughter, 6 years Air Guard and her husband 16 years AF and Air Guard.

This guy also served and earned the right to sing it anyway he wants to....unlike that fat actress!

So please don't knock this guy because you may not like me or even may hate me. I have the right to my opinion just as you do. I may not agree with your thoughts but you have the right to them. I respect that right. I helped protect that right. I did not serve to protect the government, I served to protect the Constitution and American people and thier ideas!

That guy sure beat the crap out of the fat lady a few years ago!

Rick, US Army Ret, Armor! Steel on Steel!

How many people are aware that the last four words of the
National Anthem is not " Gentlemen start your engines."

There is no song that exposes the weaknesses of a singer more than the National Anthem. I've heard the true test of a great singer is to make it look easy. He didn't.

Give him credit, he gave it all he had.

Rick this isn't the national anthem but it will give you goose bumbs.
