The National Anthem (my acapella cover).
🔼 click on the link…
Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Tyna. I’m a homemaker/ Mom and Gram from Phoenix AZ. I play keyboard and sing for fun. Above, is the topic of my first post on this Blog. After it has been much talked about and laughed at, I decided that I wanted to know first hand what it was to sing the Star Spangled Banner. As an adult, I have rarely had an occasion to sing it. I know by hearing others sing it that it’s difficult… Now, I have sung the song and I’ve posted it on my SoundCloud channel. My upload is raw. No enhancements, recorded with my iPhone. Not because my rendition is great, but just because. I think anyone attempting to sing this song acapella in front of people, brave! I can imagine the thick skin you would have to have to stand before so many people and belt out a “national treasure” that is beyond difficult. The crowd and players all amped up ready for a game. The energy and testosterone in the room/stadium itself, would be huge to overcome… Anyway, it may be a silly thing to do but posting my acapella rendition is my way of being brave. I suppose that Fergie knows that any press, is good, even bad. Still, it has to hurt and I’m betting that she’s glad the past few days are over. Today, it’s old news! Who knows, maybe Christina Aguilera called Fergie to commiserate… Brave, both of them!
I think it would be cool to start a thing… we should challenge each other to sing the National Anthem and then post it to social media. It’s patriotic and so brave! If you decide to try it, send me a link, I want to hear it!
