Wow that was bad. I hate it because I'm a Chaka Khan fan, too. She just doesnt have it anymore.

Funny part is, Gladys Knight, who is 9 years older than Chaka, sung the national anthem at the Superbowl last year and sounded absolutely amazing.

Differences in level of talent is more than a sports thing.

I just don't understand why people can't just go out there and sing the National Anthem like it's supposed to be sung. "Ohh... I have an idea... I'll add my own flourish to it. People will love it." Has that EVER worked out well?

Here's what you do. Before you sing it, find a youtube video of Sandi Patti or Whitney Houston or Gladys Knight or Aretha Franklin (maybe not the 8 minute long version) singing it. Sing it like that. The End.

Marvin Gaye is the reason. But damn that was an amazing anthem he had in LA.

that performance should have triggered any race
. I thought people were exaggerating until I listened. Couldn’t make it halfway. That was noise pollution. Total abomination. She’s incredibly talented. Why distort it and improvise to the point of turning it into nails across a chalkboard. She could just sing it regularly and it would have been amazing.
