[iAmSaintCharlie]

@Bellavanella99 obviously you didn't grow up listening to that type of music or all music and it's my opinion so hop off.

[Bellavanella99]

[WoOSkYMiles]

MARVIN GAYE AND R KELLY

[TheAlphafly]

Jimi's version is the best version, period.

[dreamsofpsilocybin7]

christina is an embarrassment. she thinks doing all that makes her a good singer. thats over doing it. its a national athem. its suppose to at least sound close to it. beyonces performance sounded beautiful and she kept it simple like the national athem is suppose to be. maybe christina should get some classes from beyonce. now that a true singer

[juices1234]

Marvin Gaye. Fucking amazing.

[DonCorleone87]

R. Kelly's was the most offensive I've ever seen.

[kensei85]

Borat's is the best:

"Kazakhstan is the greatest country in the world

All other countries are run by little girls

Kazakhstan number one exporter of potassium

Other countries have inferior potassium"

[yoshiboo5]

come on clap your hands

[pnutbutrncrackers]

[lilHippo]

[dcperdio]

Charice's rendition is great!

[820monster]

Marvin Gaye and Whitney did the best

[TheCheressa]

but........where is C H E R ??????

[DriverD00D]

Whitney's was the BEST! Second would be Beyonce.

[wyattthompson1]

that song sucks

[Jaffeproductions]

beyonce was the best!

[SapphirexxGodess]

@112961man jimi hendrix did not.

[wnesbitt1]

You'd need a good range to sing the USA national anthem. It covers a wide register. No wonder so many people muff it up. Tough song.

[maisur]

who the fuck is that fat bitch at 1:02 ?

[melaniek159]

@maisur Roseanne Barr

[Papillema]

that was before whitney had her first line......smhh

[BOYUP]

IN MEXICO I SAID..........................­

[XxRandomKnivesxX]

Why would you boo the National Anthom?!!!? That is NOT good patriotism!

[TheSmellyHedgehog]

@XxRandomKnivesxX I think they were booing the singer not the anthem.

[ultrasuperx]

Hendrix FTW

[SuperAtheist]

Roseann's version is the best ever sung!

[niginai]

I hate pop stars who make SUCH a big deal over making the anthem so flashy. you sing it well and respectively without all the glitz and CERTAINLY not how roseanne did it. go whitney.

[ShaneandSteff]

FUCK U ROSANNE!!!

[simpleboy98]

whose country national anthem is this?

[RoyalEmma3CP]

@simpleboy98 USA

[junaltabora]

Charice's live version is the best

[the81stviewer]

I wonder sometimes if there are other countries that are as obsessed and drugged out over the national anthem and the "pledge of allegiance" ( or if they HAVE a pledge of allegiance) as we are. Please, I am not being confrontational, but the thick patriotism for such a young country is astounding. I can't imagine Belgians, or say Swiss people tearing up and rocking back and forth over the national anthem.

[BOYUP]

@the81stviewer

In they have NAtional anthem and PLEDGE of allegiance and is sung avery monday

[the81stviewer]

@BOYUP In where? Belgium or Switzerland? AGain, not confronting you just didn't type the country.

[lesterclaypool1]

For the record: Mr. Marvin Gaye was coked out of his gills doing that rendition and still took every other person that has ever sang that song to town and made sweet love to them without buying them dinner or a drink.

COKED OUT!

That is all.

[kiasky1]

Love Marvin gayes version.excellent

[aNdReW16944ever]

whitney made the best rendition of this anthem ever...from an italian viewer

[silverMan345]

marvin is the best

[sportstackingwiz1]

Whiteny Houston= best national anthem in history

[MusicallyUbiquitous]

LMFAO @ Michael Bolton.

[kaleb33309]

the last one was the best

[alialcollins]

Did Michael Bolton... erm... forget the words at about :50?

[DeedsResearcher]

Did they REALLY have to include Rosanne Barr? She was not just the worst, but the most disrespectful and disgraceful performance I've ever seen of our National Anthem. She should have been run out of town on a rail for that one!

[rednex511]

Clap yo hands imma slap yo face

[Ronnyjackson25]

Fuck all of you who hate Marvin gayes version. Look at all the fools trying to copy him now

[olegario39]

@ 1:37 Manny Pacquiao beat them both..... :)

[ENIGMATIC7112]

@luna23255 lamo!!!! u must be joking i cant begin to fathom otherwise...ur delusional ..smh

[iSeeyouXD]

christina aguilera<333

[Humperninkle]

Jimi hendrix is amazing... The world needs more people with his talent. Not this horrible pop sensation garbage. Who agrees?

[xbEAUTYb00]

the 1st one looks like wiz khalifa lol

[whaleysister27]

0.25 is this from a movie lol

[ZhangtheGreat]

I've never heard Roseanne Barr sing...and after this video, I never want to even hear her name again.

[khatman100]

Charice sang it straight, she did good unlike some of these clowns in this video. .

[TheFETISHseeker]

MARVIN GAYE!

[DAForever4Ever]

1.07 It's SUSAN BOYLE!!

[danielle15ann]

Whitney's the best

[LDADDY00097]

LMT WIFE: Ok so we all have opinions, that's natural but so many negative people. Everyone brought there own special way. My personal favorite was Marvin Gaye but honestly pretty much everyone dis well with the exclusion of Roseanne of course. I'm pretty sure that was a joke.

[samjeanb]

Beonce's version was epic..

[barsicat]

Whitney's version the best! Absolutely the best!!

[Conqvistador81]

@barsicat

I am Hungarian.

My best performance is Faith Hill version on 43.th Super Bowl.

[Acciosoad]

Great video! You should have ended with Beyonce's. Her ending was just beautiful!

[MyFavoriteRapper]

Who was singing at 1:10?

[jdelarosa1989]

@MyFavoriteRapper Kat De Luna

[LALMCGatorsfan]

What about Mariah Carey!!!!!!!

[BossSuper1991]

you can watch whitney houston full at dailymotion com

[greengringo2003]

The Star Spangled Banner is meant for everyone to sing together. It's OK to not be able to hit the highest notes. It's not meant for some puffed-up narcissistic twit to warble in their own special "ethnic" crappy way of destroying any respect. Have we become so dumbed-down that NOBODY remembers the words to ONE VERSE? Have a little self-respect, people. Love your country, or get the hell out.

[WrEkGaMiNg]

Carl Lewis was the best. "Uh-oh"

[mipanagillito]

where is Jose Feliciano?

[gregis111]

marvin's was the best. hands down.

[prettishan]

at 0:55 IS THE FUNNIEST!!! LOOOL

[alia14]

lmao @hillary clinton hahaha

[ParasiteQueen1]

Whitney's gave me goosebumps.

Rosanne's gave bumpgooses.

[leoalbppri80]

whitney houston had a SUCH a beautiful voice and presence, fucked it all up with all those drugs, damn shame!!!

[pattm12]

At 1:00, she sounds like a little 3 year old. Why the hell would you ask someone that bad to sing the national anthem?

[JimmyDBit]

Interesting how Jimi gets mad props (deservedly) for his highly creative and unconventional rendition, but R Kelly gets called a disgrace. I can't think of a more appropriate song to express your creative freedom through than the national anthem. That goes for Roseanne too, and the crowd had the right to boo her. Is it really that bad if our anthem moves people to clap and dance? I think our forefathers would be proud to see that.

[didiNintendo97]

r kelly lmao!! every body clap ya hands! :D

[Devwill11]

did you see the guy look at his hand and get the words!!! And the Marine behind him started laughing!!!!!

[luna23255]

@rachel162cl I can't tell if your being sarcastic or not, but it's a known fact that Beyonce's national anthem was lip synced. That's no disrespect to her as an artist because MANY artist have lip synced the National Anthem at the SuperBowl.

[Fernandez3995]

Were people booing r. Kelly? Cause you do not turn the star spangled banner into a dance song!!

[AdrianLParker]

@Fernandez3995

Apparently you do when that national anthem is based on a British drinking song (and it is in fact). Perhaps he did it perfect justice.

[gregis111]

@Fernandez3995 unless you're marvin gaye.and r kelly, you are not marvin gaye

[mafiaslicka]

@Fernandez3995 no, it's because the national anthem shouldn't be desecrated by some asshole who wants to change the anthem for his own fun. This song should be fucking left to its original tune. Same thing with Marvin Gaye; fuck him for trying to turn it into some kind of soul train experience, it's the goddamn song of our country.

[bohemia1355]

Only Marvin's version created alot of babies.....

[1flutedude]

WHITNEYS AND MARIAH CAREY LIP SYNCED SADLY. IT WAS PRE-RECORDED. X-TINA MISSED 2 WORDS THIS YEAR BUT DID IT LIVE AND ACAPELLA AND STILL DID AMAZING. THE CROWD LOVED IT-AND I WAS THERE. WHOOP.

[survivorboi]

Whitney Houston voice is from heaven, Roseanne Barr fat bitch ass self is the worst ever.

[ERnews3967]

was that rosanne thing serious

[TastyTacoBoy]

Not the easiest to sing if you start too high. Cut Michael Bolton a break. 99% of us couldn't do any better.

[marisagm9]

@TastyTacoBoy i know right?! There was so much echoing I wouldn't be able to hear myself think!

[luna23255]

@TastyTacoBoy I actually thought Michael did an amazing job. Yes, he did pause, but overall it was still better than some of the National Anthems that have been "performed" after him.

[SuperVideoman12]

is that Christina Aguelara? at 0:30?

[tonybelf]

@SuperVideoman12 that wouldn't suprise me lol

[Singerchiq11]

@SuperVideoman12 ya

[AEMoreira81]

@SuperVideoman12 Yes---1992 Stanley Cup finals (12 or 13 at the time), when she sang it beautifully.

[generalbullmoose]

You missed the one that started it all - José Feliciano.

[galactico2008]

O'er the land of the free and the home of the gay.

[kissfreek4u]

who is playing the sparkly guitar at 19-23 seconds

[JuggaloIce]

@kissfreek4u It was Taylor Swift.

[jdeleon1234]

Its obvious that R. Kelly was the best, cant u see he had that whole place dancing by 1:40

[TheOutcast118]

MARVIN Gayes' rendition was my choice at a superbowl party yesterday!!! Then, Jennfer Hudson, then Whitney!!!

[QASQASQAS]

who sings at 0:55?

[daisy14me]

quit screwing around with the anthem and just sing it respectfully, the way it was written!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who in their right mind asked Roseanne?

[missbenzy85]

@djtrixen People need to get over that, humans make mistakes. I personally just don't like Beyonce's voice at all. I agree, last night's anthem definitely didn't show Christina's true talent, but she is usually really great. She's still my favorite.

[allbe413]

Who is at 1:35 ?

[kay890123]

@allbe413

Are you for real

[MrsLexyRice]

@allbe413 I believe that is R Kelly singing at 1:35 but if you are referring to the guys in the background, the one on the left is Oscar De La Hoya, not sure about the guy on the right though.

[cuetip1212]

@MrsLexyRice guy on the right is sugar shane mosley
