If you're feeling patriotic today, may I suggest you listen to Marvin Gaye singing the National Anthem. When Gaye first sang the anthem during the opening of the NBA Allstar game in 1983, he received mixed reaction. While some lauded his performance as original, creative, and nothing short of genius, others panned the performance and claimed Gaye had 'crucified' the national anthem by personalizing it. Marvin's rendition was not the traditional version, but was more jazzy and smooth. Almost immediately after his performance, a petition was circulated by his detractors to ban anyone from personalizing the national anthem. Obviously that didn't fly, hence, Roseanne Barr's fisaco 15 years later.
Only in America, as Don King would say.
