And no, I'm not a fan of hers, so that is not why I'm defending her.

Guess you guy are missing my point. I don't care that she said the wrong words. Mistakes can be made. What I care about is that most of the people that sing the song with all the ups and downs and other crap that they added.
Sing the damn song as it was written, PERIOD. If you don't get it you never will.
Rant over.

Okay, on that I can agree with you. It's about the song, and what it stands for, not what the singer can do with it.

I thought that she was terrible but not a lot worse than some of the so called stars that NASCAR has sing it. The half time snow was so bad that I changed channels after the first minute and then forgot to go back to watch the last half of the game.

Okay so people screw up at work. That doesn't really apply here. She had one job to do. She's a professional singer. The WORDS are on the damn stadium screen.
The problem is that she is so into HERSELF while she's singing that she got lost. She's more interested in showing off rather than showing the song the respect it deserves.
Now a couple of years ago, Faith Hill sang the anthem the way it was intended. Short, sweet, on tune, AND NO EXTRA NOTES!

But isn't Faith Hill Canadian? And do you know the words to "O Canada?"

I would if I frikken lived there AND I was asked to sing it at Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals between Montreal and Edmonton AND it was the only thing I had to do, AND if I was a professional singer!
Actually I used to know the words when I went to a lot of hockey games but that was back when Wayne Gretsky played for the Indianapolis Racers in the WHA!
