Refreshing to hear it sung with a minimum of "pop."

I HATE when they get pop stars or gospel wannabees to sing it and they insist on screwing around with and "jazzing" it up. The Star-Spangled Banner should be sung and played straight.

Just closed my eyes & let the usual goosebumps come.  Funny how a few little girls can make an ol' soldier tear up.  Absolutely beautiful.  I hope everyone will take a minute and watch it.  God Bless America.

Wow! Gave me goosebumps.
One of the best renditions that I've heard.
What's telling is how long the crowd stays quiet before breaking into applause. Usually the crowds start cheering well before the song ends.

Texas crowd, we got class :)

On a serious note, those girls' ages: 8, 10, 11, 11, 13. Their parents deserve to be proud.
