Keith,
The reason most of these singers bend the songs into an unrecognizable mess is because, in their arogance, it's all about them rather than giving honor to their country.
I agree entirely, the anthem, is not the song with which,
to prove how good a shouter, and how bad a singer you are!
It didn't help the pitch though did it Ethan !!
They cut it up pretty bad and it still wasn't right for the next England match at Wembley.
I think it's still a minority sport over here.
I can't understand why it lasts so long :confused:
Dave I agree.
BTW - Call me conservative - I prefer "The Star Spangled Banner" to be performed in it's standard form, not with so many personal embellishments thrown in to distort it to an unrecognizable morass.
Jay, I also agree, I thought Faith Hill was great,
but dare I say, I thought the other singer ' murderded' the anthem!!
Why is it, that so called 'soul' singers,
bend the songs into an unrecognizable mess!!
Display MoreTell me something, Keith. How popular is American Football over where you are?
That has to be dedication to watch a whole game that time of night. And the boss was pretty good with the limited time he had. The stage show was really good. I like the boss pretty good, not a big fan, but you have to like his music.
A really good game!
Cheers
I thought Faith Hill, was good also.
The game is not that popular here,
but there are a few die hard fans like myself.
I am acually a fan of the '49ers'
However there have been a couple NFL/NFC
League games at Wembley Stadium,
which has helped the popularity a little.
Keith, that game must have been over on your side of the pond after 4 in the morning. Did you see the whole game?
CheersHondo
A bit earlier than that Mike,
The coverage was between.2300- 0300 GMT.
And yes I watched the whole game, including 'The Boss'!
I thought it was a tremendous, exciting game.
Congratulations to both teams for such a marvelous match.
I will be watching as usual, although I'm not bothered who wins.
I enjoy both the game and the spectacle
We had American Football, live here in the UK.
On Saturday, we had the Chargers V Saints,
at Wembley Stadium.
It was a great spectacle, and was a huge success.
Hi,
He apparently had an 'exec box', at the Dodgers, but never used it!
Hi Joey,
I guess UCLA was, but did he have a favourite pro team?
Hi,
Like Jim, I am a '49ers fan from afar!!!
Not good days for them anymore.
OK my friends, does anyone know
if Duke had a favourite football team?
