I love her straight-forward rendition of our National Anthem. Every word is crystal clear. Her voice is an enhancement of the text, not a distraction from it.
This was probably the best done National Anthem I have ever seen. Her voice is great but the way she sang it was Perfect. I hope she enjoys a long life & a great singing career. Good for her.
This girl is beyond more talented than any of the professionals that tried to sing it and she knew all the words, she gave me chills. I think she should sing the National anthem for every event 👏👏👏
The best ever, WITHOUT, was Marvin Gaye's SOULFUL, spirit-moving rendition at the 1983 NBA All Star Game -- to which someone/something (SME) has denied us access, claiming copyrights.
J43K L3DDY actually winning 8 Grammies has nothing to do with her failed anthem song. Fergie is talented. She failed the anthem because she gave it a different style even she was not prepared to handle. But if she sang it like everybody else, I’m sure it would sound great.
That's pretty incredible. Hopefully her voice continues to sound so good as she matures. She might have a singing career ahead of her she can keep her voice up.
Awesome!!!!!!! I am still crying like a baby. She did this country proud and without one, single fail. God Bless, little girl. I am proud to be an American. With little girls like this, how can we fail?
If you had ears, her diction is terrible (the way you sing), her pronunciation of every word was off when it comes to singing. And she messed up a lot of notes (she went down instead of up and vice versa).
She is very talented. I hate to hear people this young belting out notes near the top of their vocal range with that much power though. That is how one develops nodules on ones vocal chords. She needs to take care of her instrument so she can sing to her children and grandchildren.
Brilliant, just brilliant! The part that starts at 1:11 is breathtaking and I actually got tears in my eyes, "And the rockets' red GLARE.." Absolutely brilliant!

Michelle Wolken I know thank you for mentioning god because he gave her the gift. I know because I am a recording artist " Tiana shalom" and my new cd just came out called "heart of shalom"
Full respect for the little girl's performance. I wish people would stop doing that double note on the ending word free. I'm not blaming the girl, she has seen everyone do it. I dislike it. It's vocal gymnastics. I much prefer keeping the integrity of the melody of the song. Sing the correct note long and strong, but please don't jump up to that weird note.
onelove Agreed, though not her flaw at all. Come to find out, for me anyway as I didn't remember, Whitney Houston started that. Even when she did it, she sang the right note strong for about 3 seconds then went to the other note only for a split second. Now people hold the weird note for more than half of the word. I think that only female performers of the National Anthem do it. As I've seen males perform it more recently and they do not do the weird jump.
Congratulations for your Boss Day today USA ;) I think its great tradition and is able to initiate interesting discussions Wish All american people only the best for the future from your friends in Germany

brat!! your calling *her* a BRAT I bet your friend Amalyn is much older and more experienced and wasn't singing infront of more then 1 000 000 people, screw off
Alexa Chavez she was good and kept it simple. Even on her face no strain on those really high notes. A child has an easier time when it comes to reaching high notes as their voice has a higher pitch compared to an adult's voice.
blackiesun people didn’t understand that I truly didn’t strain my voice. My voice was naturally very high at the time. So when people told me I needed to “not scream” the notes, I wasn’t. They were easy for me to hit.
Thank god. A kid who will sing a beautiful song with a beautiful voice without modifying it or adding quirky changes in the songs tune. I hate when people sing songs like that.
Beautiful job. Please always sing it with heart like you did. Do not let other entertainers convince you to change the words. As the original words are beautiful and you have the voice to get people to feel the true meaning of this anthem.
@@fiammanerapatrick3215 I'm honestly done with the "Mexican racism", no one is actually finding what's actually happening, people are spreading rumours about keeping all Mexicans out. The wall was built for saftey and lowering illegal immigration; not to keep all Mexicans out. You can say otherwise but, even still, it's not an act of racism.
She has such a beautiful voice and she is a good singer I love her singing I know she will make it to Hollywood one day that sing of hers had me in tears 😂🤣🤣😂😂
Alec Shroyer my dad was I swear he was doing work and stopped and did it while I was playing it he asked what I was doing but he did it it was amazing I have the best dad ever lol
😂 How did I end up here? I was searching up 'Star Spangled Banner Alto Part' cuz my choir is going to sing at the Angel Stadium and I'm an Alto... Anyway, OMG!! SHE SINGS SO GOOD!!!
when she hit the "free" high note not even lying chills i got chills soooo amazing

Yasss
+Sierrah Anderson i can do it. I think.......
I know
almost dropped a tear when she hit the "free" high note. God bless that girl, God bless America.

yes..crystal clear..nicely done.

Now she’s 18. This girl deserves to be on America’s Got Talent
that 9 year old just brought this 34 year old to tears. girl.. you are TALENTED. always remember your gift honey. you're a star
It's the best American Anthem song I ever heard! You go girl....God Bless.
My goodness she's an angel from heaven with a voice that will stay blessed and go many places in this life..what a little big girl..
NAILED IT !
Amazing voice.
A true joy to listen to this young lady !
This, Fergie, is how it's done.
Nick Gregory AGAHHAH
Spam the video with links of this of Fergie singing the Star Spangled Banner
hahaha! yes it is, yes it is! nobody will ever forget that !!!
Hahahahahaha 😂
My ears were still hurting
(In reality, I didn’t attend either game)
This was amazing! One of the best renditions by a kid that I have ever seen!
9 years later this is still in my opinion on of the best performances of "Star Spangled Banner". We need an update on this :)
My mom had shown me this a couple years ago and I was amazed the beautiful vocals and I remembers it !!💕
*Standing applause* I'd never heard such a beautiful interpretation of our national anthem by such a young talent.
She's loud because there in a basketball court and it's echoing
It hurt their ears
@Leonard Ferguson
Microphone, speakers, gymnasium. Look at that! You could accomplish making your voice loud!
And there’s a microphone
And using a microphone.
Can't you be happy for a little girl ?? oh yeah liberals hate humanity I forgot carry on.
This gave me such patriotic chills!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Me too! 🇺🇸
Beautiful rendition of our National Anthem.
Great job. If you ask any singer, this is one of the hardest songs to sing.
The best national anthem ever is Whitney Houston. Watch it.
Iveta H Unfortunately it was lip-synched...
Katelyn Rhoads

Iveta H Yeah
that "Free" note almost had me in tears.
Me too
+Rena Payne Im not being funny but I see u in every National Anthem Vid iv bee on so FAR LOL!
Greensmoke 2 Yeah sometimes I get on a binge watch to watch them lol
me too
ikr, she is good but too loud
as soon as i heard her sing my mouth fell open
She even done it better than an 8 time Grammy winner. Y'all know who I mean 😉
J43K L3DDY lmao yes
J43K L3DDY who? Whitney Houston? Fergie?
@@tikitiki2924 Fergie

U could never be talking about whitney
Beautiful... Just Beautiful! That girl is amazingly talented!
That's pretty incredible. Hopefully her voice continues to sound so good as she matures. She might have a singing career ahead of her she can keep her voice up.
Wow... my skin reacts to that angel voice. And to that so glorious Anthem of USA.

Luke Hynes My economy. WTF do u know about me dude?
I actually cried at this God bless America
This was the best! She didn't change it to "make it her own." It is OUR anthem - lets keep it just like this please.
I love her voice, and in the high notes she sounded amazing
Amazing....ABSOLUTELY Amazing....God bless that young Patriot

I love this song
Best national anthem ever
Damn she's good!

+Billy Bates You make no sense at all
Too young to curse?
Her voice is amazing!!! She has so much talent!
talent that God gave to her
agreed. this is the start of something new😊You go girl!
At first to me she sounded kind of like a little kid no offense to her
She is very talented. I hate to hear people this young belting out notes near the top of their vocal range with that much power though. That is how one develops nodules on ones vocal chords.

The Best Anthem !!!
Brilliant, just brilliant!

Absolutely brilliant!
well daaammmn!
Dude, this girl is awesome! I can't believe she's just 9!
Ya she is only 9 OMG

Wonderful. Very talented young lady

darby keegan she is better
darby im a boy and i could hit the notes.
I could hit those notes easily, and hold. I don't get why people like the holds though. It's only supposed to be held at the end verse...
I wish I can sing like that, I probably break every ones ears
Ava Leah Saldana i cqn sing like her XD
This girl is a miracle congrats 👏👏👏
... a voice like an angel . God bless !!!
Agreed!!👏👏
Amen

Wow that little girl is amazing
Now that's how to hit a high-note awesome job Athena

Actually they do it double noted to show that they can sing higher that's why people were cheering at that time
Amelia Mauro I agree. That is why they do it. I just wish they wouldn't.
I fully agree!
Totally agree, and she is praising herself because she posted the video of her singing. Bit awkward don't ya think??
I'm not even from the US, and I'm crying, wtf is this? Is this what freedom feels like?
Well I bet the 15-16 year old girl right now is looking back now just like.. damn ii was dat girl... PROUD TO BE AN AMUURRICAAAAN

not until now lol
yes
Yes
yea
Yes
wow.I can't believe this.nice voice.really osam.

Thank god. A kid who will sing a beautiful song with a beautiful voice without modifying it or adding quirky changes in the songs tune. I hate when people sing songs like that.
I don't know why but in the beginning she reminded me of Annie.
Omg same! That's what I thought the whole time lol
I know right!
who is annie????
Have you ever heard of the movie/musical Annie? The older version. She is the main character in there.
+J Herm yes
Beautiful job. Please always sing it with heart like you did. Do not let other entertainers convince you to change the words. As the original words are beautiful and you have the voice to get people to feel the true meaning of this anthem.
I’m from the uk but this is the best version for this young girl singing the USA nation anthem including that high note on 1:48
she's singing it kind of slow but really good
Lol do we watch the same videos or something?
i agree to
We'll almost everyone sings it slow
not this slow haley davis
She has to do it slow so she can hit the notes in the beginning middle and the end
The people who unlike are probably:
1)jealous
2)no soul
3)and deaf
I aint jealous. Im not deaf either. And i also have a soul. And im not hating but im not liking. Sry...
