One could recount the US's failures and atrocities in it's short history, and yet it would not diminish the love her people have for her. I wish that the same would be said of your people.

This shows that humans are very beautiful and kind when it comes to singing♥️ Just beautiful, right?

The members of the KENTUCKY ALL STATE CHOIR have their conference in Louisville every spring. They do this every year. It’s so beautiful, and much more meaningful than those solo performers that sing it like they’re auditioning for a show in Las Vegas. It’s not about YOU. It’s about honoring our country, those who began it and those that have fought to keep it free.

Weird... KZread is only showing how many times I've viewed this... Brings tears to my eyes. Every. Time. God bless America.

I'm 65, as a kid I lived exactly a mile as the crow flies from our local baseball stadium, I remember many times standing on the roof of my tree-house with my hand on my heart while they played the anthem, then came the inevitable "PLAY BALL!". Every time I hear it now, it brings back some sweet memories, thanks!

I BROKE INTO TEARS. This is UNBELIEVABLY POWERFUL and MOVING. Such a MASTERFUL cover. Every moment of American history, every sacrifice, every adversity, every horrific tragedy, every war, every presidential assassination, all of our nations struggles….can be FELT in this cover….this is truly a hymn of American resolve. The anthem of resilience. Ode to hope, and our unwavering commitment to liberty. Which means even more to me given I’m a black American…knowing the painstaking battle it took for us to experience equality. But it happened. It happened…. Long live this American experiment. 🇺🇸 Whitney Houston was my favorite cover….but this…has taken it. 🙌🏽🏆

As an American growing up in Germany during the cold war I ( fck Im tearing up now) I learned our flag meant sanctuary, safety and home. I cry everytime out national anthem is played . 🇺🇸

The most majestic and ethereal version I have ever heard....

I know that other countries just play their national anthem when the national team is playing or at the start or end of a broadcasting day unlike the US, but it says a lot when we sing it just because. The US has an anthem to be proud of, it sets the point across of what led to us being here, and its willpower. I got to visit the place where the anthem was written at Fort McHenry in Baltimore when I was a kid. We made it in time for a flag changing ceremony, and me being the last in line, I was given the folded flag and had the opportunity to walk it over from one park ranger to another. A moment I'll never forget. I also got to sing the anthem at an Islanders game as part of a middle school chorus. Was I nervous? A little. Is the anthem famously difficult to perfect? Yes. But it isn't about that, it's about unity. Sing it with your heart, and unleash that spirit.

This is a tradition going all the way back to 1958 for the All-State Choirs of Kentucky. Each year the best Choral students in the State audition and are chosen. They gather in Louisville Ky every February for a performance at the Kentucky International Convention Center. All the participants stay at the Hyatt Regency downtown which was built in 1978. The tradition is to come out and stand outside your rooms and sing the National Anthem each night of the convention. I was blessed to have participated in this all 4 years in High School back in the 90's. It is truly amazing and the people who work and are visiting in the hotel stop and stand still to listen. I'm so thrilled to see the tradition is living on!!!

I'm not from the USA but to be brutally honest, this is the best national anthem of all the national anthems in the whole wide world! Goosebumps every time you hear it!
