Whitney has her smoked. Whitney would spank her at this song, our country's song. God rest your soul Whitney. You were the best of your time. And one of the best who ever lived.
@fullmoon656 wtf..killing someone in an accident and flubbing the national anthem are two different things. if u havent noticed one is wayyyy more extreme than the other... get over it.
@palomaromang good for you...what do you want a fucking cookie? nobody cares that you are mexican. that would be like me saying i'm polish and i know it better than her. get your dumb ass up there and sing it in front of millions of people if you think your brown ass can do it better.
she is the first person in the world that i've heard has managed to fuck up your national anthem, i'd be ashamed to have her at the super bowl and making us listen to 2 minutes of crap
she really does have the best voice i have ever heard! learn the words and u'll be set :P lol nah i love her no matter what, i find this kinda funny :P who cares, she has a busy schedule :)
still an incredible performance :) xxxx love her FOREVER! SOOO EXCITED FOR HER 2012 ALBUM!! :)xxx
people need to calm the fuck down. i dont see not ONE of you people who are bitching up there and singing infront of 300 million people, + those who were there live. she is still human afaik, hope that hasnt changed lately! she wasnt forced to do this, they could of had someone else do it (bieber *cough*). but she had the courage to go up there and sing the national anthem. would anyone of you be able to do that? no. and until you do, shut your fucking mouth and be thankful for this
@Da1337Man yeah, well im not gonna hand deliver a fuckin youtube message genius, and keyboard warrior? cmon kid, at least show some originality you lame
@Da1337Man i was not offered the position of singing infront of 300 million people, although if i were, i would have remembered the correct words. also, nice double negative. idiot
@DutchmenCanFly right. if you can sing so awesome, why arent you making millions right now instead of sitting here on youtube, coming to this video just so you can whine, you dumb fucking troll. do the world a favour and go hang yourself
@Da1337Man first of all if i were truly a "troll" i would be making millions because people would pay ridiculous amounts to see a real live "troll". and i cant sing awesome, which is why i dont get paid millions to sing like aguilera does. but if i were a professional singer i would remember the words to the most common and popular song in my country. idiot
@DutchmenCanFly "but if i were a professional singer i would remember the words to the most common and popular song in my country"
cuz standing up infront of hundreds of millions of people singing THE most popular and beloved song in the USA without any flaws is so easy right? you probably stuttered like a fat pussy having to read storys in school as a kid, and then criticize other people later on. those kinda people are called hypocrites and are hated on. have a nice day faggot
@ps1547 Yes many soldiers had died, but we Americans know for sure how to forgive. We are very smart enough to know that people makes mistakes. Christina was just representing our country, dude she didn't mean to mess up.
@LaughOutPeace no excuse, you practice this and she has heard this song many times, and then on the big day you screw up. in my opinion thats unacceptable
This is a complete disgrace to our great country… I would love to know who the incompetent, downright disrespectful person is that makes the final decision on the National Anthem performance for the Super Bowl… Whoever it is should have been replaced after such a failure… WOW! I was in the privacy of my own home when I watched this, and was embarrassed. Next thing you know they will have Lady Gaga up there. IDIOTS!!!!
@ahunter2323 Bitch Shut The Fuck Up it wasn't her that made America look bad it's ppl like YOU who Make America Look Bad Cus its yall who Act like no one can make a mistake ur obviously a Redneck who strongly supports the Republican Party! She's the voice of her generation thats why they piked her & she did a better job then Carrie Underwood last yr, & now ur sayin Lady Gaga's a disgrace to america, She represents America better then other idiotiotic predjudice Artist like John Rich!! LOSER! :P
People like you act as if no one can make any mistakes. It wasn't as if she meant to say the wrong words and just because she ACCIDENTLY did doesn't mean she is a disgrace to our country, which is what you said. People make mistakes and at least she was brave enough to get up there and sing unlike SOME lazy people who just sit on their couches watching tv all day long. And Lady Gaga is an AMAZING artist and preformer. She thinks of everything when she preforms so shut up!!
Are you serious PanBreadKitteh?!?! ya were human but fuck its the national anthem on (tv) and she is suppose to be prepared for this shit shes been a singer for years and yes she sucks ass at singing, but she could atleast get the damn Anthem right
@hickkid09 Ur a Fuckin Idiot & Conservative Red Neck Republican's like You Are What makes other Countries H8 America so Much, 1. She made a mistake it happens get the Fuck Over it & 2 She does NOT suck at singing obviously u dnt know true vocal talent when u hear it, shes the voice of her generation besides that one line she did a Beautiful job WAY BETTER then Carrie Underwood & Beyonce, SO GROW UP & QUIT MAKIN AMERICA LOOK LIKE IDIOT'S!!!!
Look at all the times she has sang this song to huge audiences. All the clips are here on youtube. No excuses anymore for her crappy performance. She has butchered this song over 5 times, and I got tired listening, so there are probably more. Her rendition of the National Anthem is repetitive, and disgusting, at best. The National Anthem is not "Pop Rock."
Watch Whitney Houston show how the national anthem should be sung. This rock style National Anthem stuff is getting a bit out of hand. Aguilera was horrible, and to make excuses for her disrespectful rendition is as bad. This "Star" was quoted as saying she has been singing this song since she was 7 years old and would be happy to sing for the Super Bowl. You can't say it scared her being there. It's her daily job...since she was 7. She said that, not me!
@xraidedlok Our servicemen? Familes who have burried sons and daugthers who died in the service of this country? This is not the song to show off on. It should have been sung correctly and with respect.
@cindiluwho77 im sure they arent shitting their pants over it... people make mistakes.. everyone does.. from bums to world leaders to ghandi.. dont try to tell me none of them or you have ever fucked something up. liar.
This was not so bad! She did miss a phrase which was horrible but does happen sometimes! It was still the national anthem and she hit all the major spots! Come on people, not a huge problem!
And so what could possibly be worse than this rendition you wonder?!
Perhaps famous Chinese pianist, Lang Lang (who flawlessly performed "My Motherland", an anti-American anthem at White House State Dinner last month) perfectly performing Christina's Star Spangle Banner version at next year's Superbowl -- all in Chinese, of course. Ridiculously shameful indeed & almost funny if it was a joke :(
God bless America. Much love & peace to ALL in the world.
Sorry folks, she's supposed to be a professional. That was anything but a professional performance. Yes, pro's screw up lyrics all the time, but that is just one song you don't screw up like that when singing in public, especially on national t.v. It's insulting to everyone that ever served, fought and died for.
She's supposedly a professional, rather than cutting her slack, we should hold her to a higher standard when she performs. It should not be the other way around.
true she is a professional... that simply means she is paid for her work ... that does not mean that she is expected to be perfect. her work has to generally be of a high caliberin my opinion and for pop musicians her work generally is of a high caliber... we all mistakes hun... NO ONE has the capability of delivering perfect performances all the time... shes human give her a break
people are ridiculously judgemental.... the woman did exceptionally well thought she did a great pop rendition of the star bangled banner!!! especially since
-- she sang acapella!
-- she was not given a starting pitch!
--she sang in front of millions of people
so she forgot a a couple words-- name a singer who hasnt forgotten the words at least once during a performance! She certainly didnt let it show. Brava christina!
I'm sorry, but that is one song you DON'T fuck up the lyrics too. It's highly insulting. She's a professional, so she is accustomed to singing in front of millions of people. That excuse isn't going to float with me either.
Wow really people need to calm the fuck down, I'd like to see one of you get out there in front of a stadium PACKED with people, having almost everyone in the nation watching you, and having to control your vocals like she does. I'm pretty sure none of you could do it. And just because she has so many grammy's doesn't mean she doesn't get nervous. As for her messing up and "depressing" a unit of marines, My uncle, Boyfriend, and best friend are marines and they understand people get nervous.
@Calgirl310 thnak you hun! people are judgemental especially those who can not get out there and do it! VERY few get the chance even to sing in front of that number of people many prerecord their performances she did her best what more can one ask for? shes nota singing robot...lol! shes bound to make a mistake!
ok seriously guys! get off her backk! so she messed up! get the FUCK over it!! NONE of you even know whats it like to have pretty much the entire nation watching you! thats a LOT of pressure!! so she got a little bit of stage fright!! annd made a MISTAKE! no one is perfect! and i'm sure she did a HELL of a lot better than any of you could do! so seriously, back off!
This is absolutely disgusting. I know we all make mistakes, but this is ridiculous. This is our National Anthem for crying out loud!! She could of studied the words before performing in front of EVERYONEEEEE IN THE COUNTRY! jeeezz. get it together xtina!
Wow! I am in arts education and this is a DISGRACE to the artform, not to mention our nation. Do NOT pay her for this gig! Ms. Aguilera should never be granted the honor to sing the national anthem again in public! I have gifted junior high students who do a MUCH better job! Hey NFL contact us next time you need someone COMPETENT to sing this song on an international broadcast to millions or is it billions of viewers? EMBARASSING for EVERYONE. Ms Aguilera- stay home or learn your lyrics.
oh my god! that was just horrible! they couldve got some little middle school student to do that and it wouldn't have been bad because at least the whole world minus one knows the words!!seriously?! FAILURE OF THE YEAR AWARDED TO CHRISTINA!
The reason she did horrible was because she was waiting for the jets to go over the stadium. They were late so she couldn't be done with the song and have the jets randomly fly over haha. But it was pretty bad nonetheless. Pretty bad on both the timings of the pilots and Christina herself.
Really Christina? She Has An Amazing Voice And Has Done Amazing Things With It..But Screw Up Our National Anthem? The Song Of The United States? She Should Apologize On National Television To Everyone..Especially The People That Are Out There Risking Their Lives Defending Our Country While She Is Messing Up The NATIONAL Anthem..Jeez..
This is what you get when you hire these teeny bopper idols to sing the National Anthem at the Superbowl when 99% of NFL fans don't even listen to these people.
4- The runs are so off pitch it hurts my ears as a musician
5- She butchered the lyrics
6- It's time to retire FAILtina, get yourself a new job, perhaps flipping burgers at McDonalds? Either way...as long as there are streets to walk she'll always find a job.
im not going to deny that its was a bad performance.. but she could have easily avoided it! she could have recorded it before and lip synced it or sang it a few times to herself in her head before. but then again there 50,000+ at the game and the rest of the world watching at home.. i think id mess up to.
@MNSTATECHAMPS1 You would have an excuse for messing up the national anthem, but a 6-time Grammy award winning star who has done concerts that were arguably 50,000+ strong simply has no excuse at all. Not only did she botch the final note, and mess with it way too much, but she flat out sang the wrong words. I am very disappointed in her performance, and I think it proves that it's about time she was done.
If you are getting paid to perform our National Anthem, and it is going to be seen by the better part of the Western World, could you PLEASE go through the words a few times before the performance to make sure you don't screw them up???
The way Christina Aguilera song The National Anthem was offensive to Americans. Also when she was singing fox was showing many people the didn’t stand to attention during the anthem, very sad to see our freedoms mean nothing to them. How could you be an American and not know the words or change the words to The National Anthem? The only thing I can think of is, Christina Aguilera is not patriotic, Come on Christina.Leave it to Fox screw up the superbowl again ….Maybe NBC will get right..
This lady took this song and made it her own. The only trouble with that is the song is not her own. People died while this song was being composed and have died to make sure this song can remain being sung. This lady destroyed this song trying to impress 50 million people, when the be she did was depress 50 million plus a unit of marines that were watching from Afghanistan. She owes the country an apology, and she needs told that this wasn't American Idol she was on.
@ps1547 you're a fucking moron, it wasn't intentional. she accidentally missed gallantly streaming and re said twilights last gleaming. they happen to both rhyme which i believe should be enough to warrant as simple a mistake as this. she didn't try to make it her own, theres no point to re make the song that has shaped our nation and i'm sure even she knows that. you're just a fucking moron who wants to make something our of nothing. so continue to sit on your couch and bitch and moan.
@ps1547 I agree. Maybe if she'd just sung it the way it was written, she wouldn't have butchered it. That's what you get for showing off. This is NOT the song to show off on. It has too much meaning.
@ps1547 I think the main problem in all countries is that one!! All artists try to impress & sing the anthems as if they were pop songs & they're not!! It's a symbol of each country's values. I love Christina but she should've sung her anthem properly.
@ps1547 GROW UP U ACT AS IF SHE DID IT ON PURPOSE ITS AN HONEST MISTAKE THAT ANYONE COULD'VE MADE & ALL THE OTHER LOSERS WHO LIKED UR COMMENT ARE JUST AS REDICULOUS AS U AND R WHAT MAKES OTHER COUNTRIES H8 AMERICA SO MUCH, SHE DID APOLOGIZE 4 WHAT SHE DID SO ALL U MORONS NEED TO QUIT MAKIN AMERICA LOOK BAD & MAKE A PROBLEM OUT OF EVERY DAMN THING THAT IN THE END IS NOT EVEN A BIG DEAL, SO LIKE I SAID ALL OF YOU IDIOTIC REDNECKS GROW UP & CHANGE UR NARROWMINDED WAYS!!!!
I also forgot to say she did mess up on the words but I think she fixed it brilliantly. I would have probably stopped and ran off stage crying like a little baby. But that goes to show she is a true performer because "the show must go on". So I thought she did good covering up her mistake. This also goes to show she's only human and everyone makes mistakes.
I don't think it is as bad as everyone is claiming but I will say she tried way to hard. This just goes to show that sometimes less is more. Because you could clearly here her talent when she wasn't screaming at the top of her lungs.
That was HORRIBLE!!! Im not sure what she was thinking but it's something that you should know BY HEART since ur an AMERICAN and U should know it before you ever get out of GRADE SCHOOL!! Just sayin...
The National Anthem should never be ornamented to the point where you can't recognize the melody...and why does a 5-time Grammy Award winner go out in front of this size of an audience, televised for the whole nation, without a tele-prompter? Unbelievable...
This was just TERRIBLE. There's no excuse for her mesing up the lyrics because she's performed this song on more than one occasion, and she's American. I expected her to do the whole oversinging thing but not to flub the words to such a standard.
:( She's probably feeling very embarrassed already about it.. no need to be so harsh.. I agree that she should've perhaps practiced more or paid more attention to following the lyrics correctly, but what's done is done.. I'm certain she realizes her mistake now.
pathetic shit.

It's insulting to everyone that ever served, fought and died for.
She's supposedly a professional, rather than cutting her slack, we should hold her to a higher standard when she performs. It should not be the other way around.

true she is a professional... that simply means she is paid for her work ... that does not mean that she is expected to be perfect. her work has to generally be of a high caliberin my opinion and for pop musicians her work generally is of a high caliber... we all mistakes hun... NO ONE has the capability of delivering perfect performances all the time... shes human give her a break

people are ridiculously judgemental.... the woman did exceptionally well thought she did a great pop rendition of the star bangled banner!!! especially since
-- she sang acapella!
-- she was not given a starting pitch!
--she sang in front of millions of people
so she forgot a a couple words-- name a singer who hasnt forgotten the words at least once during a performance! She certainly didnt let it show. Brava christina!

@Babs22h
I'm sorry, but that is one song you DON'T fuck up the lyrics too. It's highly insulting. She's a professional, so she is accustomed to singing in front of millions of people. That excuse isn't going to float with me either.

Wow really people need to calm the fuck down, I'd like to see one of you get out there in front of a stadium PACKED with people, having almost everyone in the nation watching you, and having to control your vocals like she does. I'm pretty sure none of you could do it. And just because she has so many grammy's doesn't mean she doesn't get nervous. As for her messing up and "depressing" a unit of marines, My uncle, Boyfriend, and best friend are marines and they understand people get nervous.

Hey NFL contact us next time you need someone COMPETENT to sing this song on an international broadcast to millions or is it billions of viewers? EMBARASSING for EVERYONE. Ms Aguilera- stay home or learn your lyrics.

The reason she did horrible was because she was waiting for the jets to go over the stadium. They were late so she couldn't be done with the song and have the jets randomly fly over haha. But it was pretty bad nonetheless. Pretty bad on both the timings of the pilots and Christina herself.

She is such an idiot...
1- The low notes are mush and unsupported
2- The middle notes are growled
3- The high notes are screamed and choked
4- The runs are so off pitch it hurts my ears as a musician
5- She butchered the lyrics
6- It's time to retire FAILtina, get yourself a new job, perhaps flipping burgers at McDonalds? Either way...as long as there are streets to walk she'll always find a job.

im not going to deny that its was a bad performance.. but she could have easily avoided it! she could have recorded it before and lip synced it or sang it a few times to herself in her head before. but then again there 50,000+ at the game and the rest of the world watching at home.. i think id mess up to.
MNSTATECHAMPS1 1 year ago
@MNSTATECHAMPS1 You would have an excuse for messing up the national anthem, but a 6-time Grammy award winning star who has done concerts that were arguably 50,000+ strong simply has no excuse at all. Not only did she botch the final note, and mess with it way too much, but she flat out sang the wrong words. I am very disappointed in her performance, and I think it proves that it's about time she was done.

The way Christina Aguilera song The National Anthem was offensive to Americans. Also when she was singing fox was showing many people the didn’t stand to attention during the anthem, very sad to see our freedoms mean nothing to them. How could you be an American and not know the words or change the words to The National Anthem? The only thing I can think of is, Christina Aguilera is not patriotic, Come on Christina.Leave it to Fox screw up the superbowl again ….Maybe NBC will get right..

This lady took this song and made it her own. The only trouble with that is the song is not her own. People died while this song was being composed and have died to make sure this song can remain being sung. This lady destroyed this song trying to impress 50 million people, when the be she did was depress 50 million plus a unit of marines that were watching from Afghanistan. She owes the country an apology, and she needs told that this wasn't American Idol she was on.

@ps1547 you're a fucking moron, it wasn't intentional. she accidentally missed gallantly streaming and re said twilights last gleaming. they happen to both rhyme which i believe should be enough to warrant as simple a mistake as this. she didn't try to make it her own, theres no point to re make the song that has shaped our nation and i'm sure even she knows that. you're just a fucking moron who wants to make something our of nothing. so continue to sit on your couch and bitch and moan.

@ps1547 I think the main problem in all countries is that one!! All artists try to impress & sing the anthems as if they were pop songs & they're not!! It's a symbol of each country's values. I love Christina but she should've sung her anthem properly.

I also forgot to say she did mess up on the words but I think she fixed it brilliantly. I would have probably stopped and ran off stage crying like a little baby. But that goes to show she is a true performer because "the show must go on". So I thought she did good covering up her mistake. This also goes to show she's only human and everyone makes mistakes.

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
