An Old Negro Spiritual is just as American as Apple Pie or as the Declaration of Independence. Having it sung like that is just representative of one portion of the American experience.

The song should be done in such a manner as to encourage everyone in the venue to join in. The problem lately is that it has become a vehicle for the singer to "perform". It's not supposed to be about the singer !

It should be sung the way it was written.

Old Negro spirituals should be sung the way they are, just as the National Anthem should be sung the way it was traditionally for what, the last 75-100 years?
This ain't rocket science.

I'm not huge on big variances to our anthem, but I thought that was pretty awesome.

It would be that much better if it was performed over your corpse.
