Not sure how to link this. Always does an awesome job on the anthem and thought it was an interesting read.

When she sings it, you know it is going to be done right.

She is the best. Sings the song the way it is meant to be sung.

My wife and I listened to Katie sing the anthem for the first time at this year's 360 Nationals and we were impressed. I get really upset when I hear other singers drastically alter the original version. The anthem may have more meaning to me than most because I am a vet and a patriotic slob so whenever I hear a version that I feel detracts form it I make a point of contacting the event organizers and let them know how I feel about that. I encourage others to do the same.

No argument that she does a very good job.
But really? Its originally a poem, it wasn't "meant to be sung." If she did perform it in "the way it was meant to be sung," then she would include all four verses and not include God Bless America in the very begining.
Just because you prefer a way, doesnt mean it is truly the correct version.
