: How about that National Anthem? Talk about a horrible, disrespectful and disgraceful rendition of our most partiotic of Anthems. There should be a law enacted that stipulates that the Anthem is not to be changed or sung by the performers in their own personal way. That damn Aaron Neville and Aretha Franklin sure butchered it.

I agree, it was horrible. I don't know about a panel to pre-approve it, but there might be some guidelines that at least require it to sound like to original. They were both horrible.
