[KnightRyder43]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!! they should've played this during last time he sang it and lipped synced it!!

[pcvs424]

cool!!

[Branto123]

he looks like a monkey.....

[DOOKAT]

That scream at 2:15 was awesome.

[mh5856]

Ouch...

[GTABobby]

He'd be fined $25 in Indy.

[controlledfolly11]

@pampasg blah, blah, blah

[vbeek2002]

Tyler is awesome

[GinaGlocksenFan]

This is atrocious. He should have done this an entire octave lower. You can't screech the national anthem!

[controlledfolly11]

@GinaGlocksenFan i guess you can - he just did and it was great

[garrobito007]

AMERICAN National Anthem sucks any ways,,,,, wtf is jose ??

[idelta777]

@garrobito007 José is a name, at least in spanish. I don't if it has another meaning in another language, my name is José btw

[coxco93]

@garrobito007 you mean O!, say can you see. i hope you were joking about the jose

[garrobito007]

@coxco93 wtf u dont know ur own n,,anthem hahaha

[FireFighter0254]

I love Aerosmith & Tyler, but he made a bad decision at the very end altering the words to our National Anthem, that isn't right. That ranks right down in the gutter with...whats-her-name? Oh yeah, Roseanne.

[axltyler]

@FireFighter0254 Tyler's vocal performance was top notch though..... that's more than can be said about Roseanne.... yeesh!

[FireFighter0254]

@axltyler I can agree to that!

[solidraiden242]

Steven Tyler did an alright job, but he made a terrible choice in starting it in D. An estimated 1% of the male population can belt a D5. And those who can't end up getting 2:12, he should've started it on A.

[axltyler]

@solidraiden242 Steven Tyler's highest full voice note is an F5 or F#5. He has to start belting out notes at A4 or around there....

[solidraiden242]

@axltyler According to this performance, he isn't able to belt a D confidently anymore.

[TylerofAerosmith]

1:25 - he better had to sing it a bit of lower, especially while singing it not at the rock concert.

[shakriviere]

Simply a vocal god!

[silas000000]

steven el mejor cantante

[Xebax97]

steven tyler.......FOREVER AMAZING!!

[pepster77]

I likes the part when the freak lip man was like i sing like goat cock in my throat for you.

[KHJEDIMASTER]

I was at the Indy 500 that year. My dad was pissed the hell off when Tyler sang "and the home of the Indianapolis 500", especially since my dad served in the Army for 25 years.

[timmay301]

@KHJEDIMASTER whatever dude. that doesnt have fuck all to do with your dad serving.

[TifoMjySt]

Eff all them haters. This is one of the best national anthem performences ever. I love steven and if you watch the other ones of him like at the Bruins or World Series you'll see what I mean.. Amazing.

[mcsew2k]

Very emotional; all out, pedal to the metal, Steven Tyler!!

[fabmd8]

MSN.com voted this one of the top 3 worst versions of the Star Spangled Banner, so I had to watch it. I'm ok with it, not really sure why this is "worst". I mean, he IS Steven Tyler and he does hit all of the notes. Did they expect an operatic voice to come out of his mouth? I would have liked it a little better if he had had some electric guitar scream ass stuff to back him up. America was actually sorta bad assed during the revolutionary war. Why not sing it his way? Artistic interpretation!

[saxafreak]

I LOVE THIS FUCKING MAN..........THIS IS GREATNESS. This is performance. WHO SAYS AMERICA IS ALL ABOUT ABOUT BEING SWEET. AMERICA IS CARRIE, WHITNEY, STEVEN, MARIAH, LUTHER, and even opera...fuck be proud of being unique. its who you are geeesh

[stearlymotor]

I wouldn't have that guy sing the National Anthem @ a little league baseball game. Worst, disrespectful, version of the National Anthem I've ever heard. Now he is going to judge other people singing?? Simon C. should have been on 16th Street that day. If he didn't want to sing the song the way Mr. Key wrote it, he should have watched the race on TV, from Puerto Rico.

[teki1234]

@stearlymotor who is puerto rican??

[biggedd64]

@stearlymotor he sang it with his heart, what was wrong with it? and fuck you if u have a problem with Puerto Rico, Kanye has a song dedicated to u, obviously ur a republican

[nintendonerdgoodbad2]

only time ive EVER heard anyone ruin our beautiful anthem

[biggedd64]

@nintendonerdgoodbad2 if u think Rosanne was better u have issues, he did a good job for the Audience

[minato392]

OKay i get it hes doing something thaats not even part of his race hes Puerto Rican well part Puerto Rocan i hate the Anthem you must deport me now then

[teki1234]

@minato392 who is puerto rican????

[minato392]

@teki1234 Steven Tyler is part Puerta Rican his name is Steven Tallacairo witch is a Puerto Rican last name

[teki1234]

@minato392 what???? im puerto rican. i live in the island and never heard that before. im just curious because there is no such thing as a "puerto rican last name" most last name here and in latin america come from spain france england and ireland

[sueellen360]

@minato392 he's italian

[SymmetryofIllusion]

Oh poor Mr. Tyler...Don't quit the day job...

[JohnFordDanceTroupe]

Tyler does prove himself worthy of our nation's anthem and even throws in a bit of humor at the end.

Francis Scott Key would approve.

[TylerofAerosmith]

very high notes

[sebastian123sanchez]

The best version. The controversy just made the legend grow and now it's a classic.

[acousticfoxx]

Sings his arse off as usual! does anyone know what year this is?

[skippydmb]

@acousticfoxx 2001 and it created some controversy cause he changed the last line.

[Gr8fulrocker]

FUKYAH Go Stevie....

[kortekaasje]

rock on!!!!! fan4fr

[gpizzle123]

he actually caught a ton of shit for changing the last line. he had to publicly apologize.

you can't do that shit at nascar, man. too many conservative rednecks.

[19701980]

fuck u!

[minonkracer]

@gpizzle123 This wasn't a NASCAR race dumbass.

[spartans2468]

@gpizzle123 wasn't at a nascar race dumbass.

[lexiboo34]

@gpizzle123 rednecks dont give a damn if he changed the last line

[yoda10ike]

@lexiboo34 too bad these aren't redneck NASCAR fans. These are classy IndyCar fans. You know, a type of racing that actually involves skill and not high-speed bumper cars?

[jbracer86]

01:44 that look on Aj Foyt is priceless lol he looks so disgusted with Steven Tyler's version of the National Anthem.

[Aerosing]

huh;; he takes the note too high;; but he success singing..he is awesome
