The Star Spangled Banner has been the US'sofficial National Anthem since 1932. It is a very difficult song to sing and interpret due to the range and complexity of the melody. In your opinion, what are your thoughts on how it is performed in public setting such as sporting events, national events, world events, etc...? Should it be performed in a traditional manner or in a contemporary manner?For example, Fergieperformed her version of it at a past NBA All-Star Game and received negative response to her rendition.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMA2iF6RuXkName some examples of what you think is a good rendition versus a bad rendition of the national anthem. Also, please post a YouTube video link if you find a good or bad rendition of the banner. Comparing good vs bad is recommended! For example, here is a link to the source melody for the Star Spangled Banner:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3l-n64NWHS4Many historians believe that the original melody was a song sung in English pubs!
