    During this game, Taylor was 18 years old and had already made 2 country albums (writing all the songs). Thirteen years later and she has sold over 200 million records globally. She has done all of the above with an independent streak. It is no surprise she sang the National Anthem as she did, as she chose, and she will do again.

This was far better than the loud, obnoxious screeching we usually hear; from people over doing it, and trying too hard. This was believable and honest.

    I've always been a Swift fan, but this performance was NOT up to her standards. The biggest problem was her guitar accompaniment. She simply SKIPPED many of the small/quick chord-changes which made the song sound... awkward/not-whole at several moments. She's always had very high standards, and good sense, musically. So, I'm kind of surprised she would have given such an amaturish guitar performance.

    It would have been 'the sweetest and calmest rendition' if she'd have played the proper guitar chords. She flat-out MISSED many of the quick transition chords, which made the song sound awkward. You actually thought it sounded 'sweet'? At times, the notes she sang and the notes she played CLASHED. I've always been a fan of hers, but this was NOT one of her best efforts.

Did Jimi Hendrix need a guitar to play the National Anthem, or should he have just walked on stage and sang it? He didn't have to, but he did anyway, because he wanted to, and he was a great guitar player. Taylor played the guitar because she wanted to.

    @@danielhkhk7283 I wouldn't say it's "aweful", but she DID play such a simplified, amaturish guitar accompaniment... skipped all the key-changes that make the song sound 'whole' and 'complete'. I actually love and respect T.S., which is why I'm a bit shocked that she would do such a thing. Did she think it was 'stylistically unique'? Or does she simply lack the finger-talent to make those little chord-changes? It's hard for me to call anything she does "aweful", but compared to her STANDARDS, it's kind of aweful.

    This is one of the best versions of the national anthem ever. Taylor was 18 at the time. As well as Having over 300 award nomination and over 200 wins, including; 7 Grammys, 6th place on All time wins list for American Music Awards, Most Billboard Awards, most Writer/artist awards from the Nashville Songwriters Association. She Is the only artist in history with 3 million plus album sales weeks. Dozens of music hall of fame artists including, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, Dolly Parton, Vince Gill, Lionel Ritchie, Steven Tyler, Stephen Stills, Stevie Nicks, etc. have praised her. So unless you have gotten this kind of recognition stop criticizing her.

It isn’t too powerful, it’s just so sweet and heartwarming, it’s more like a lullaby and don’t forget she writes gorgeous lyrics, she was just about 17 or something like this, she was also playing the guitar and she DIDN’t sing out of tune.

    I don’t get why everyone says she isn’t a strong vocalist. She just normally chooses to sing softer, especially in her older music. She has a pretty good range (listen to New Romantics and Out of the Woods and you’ll hear it). She was young so cut her some slack. She has a clear voice and can hold notes and doesn’t glide in any of her songs.

    Because she's pitchy and shrill. She's improved a lot. But she would not have been a famous artist prior to the auto-tune era. There are plenty of high schoolers that sing better than her both then and now. I'm not denying that she hasn't worked hard and continues to work hard. She also happened to have a lucky break that many more talented than her didn't get. It wasn't just talent. Again, she's improved a lot. She's worked hard. I'm car you think I'm a hater, I listen to her a lot--I like her lyrics. I just don't listen to her live performances, especially her early ones because they are pitchy and shrill. (And in my music, I usually prefer live performances of songs because they have more energy and authenticity.) I think a lot of haters don't give her credit for how hard she has worked to improve her vocal technique. But I can like her music and still say that she's not the most talented vocalist out there. (I've studied music longer than she's been alive.) Her arrangement of this song is nice though. (Like the chords and stuff.) Simple. But nice.

    humble beginnings 🥰 not her fan but she totally worked hard for what she has now. and to be fair, she never even claimed to be the best singer nor the best performer so people should stop comparing her to the other main pop girlies. she's successful 'cause she's relatable. she may not be my favorite but i totally respect the hardwork, talent, and dedication

    Very nice rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. She is very talented. I wonder if she continued her music career.

    The visuals just remind me of You Belong With Me MV for some reason
