    I started to cry and I’m not even American and I don’t live in the US. Kendall Robbins sings like an angel.

    As a retired Marine, I must admit Kendall's version brought tears to my eyes. The purity and almost haunting clarity of her voice evokes a visceral response which highlights the true essence of this anthem. The SSB is not a platform for "performers" to defile in their endeavors to brand it as their own, rather it is a stark reminder of the true cost of freedom. Kudo's to you Kendall, for your beautiful rendition; it is for people like you whom I humbly, and proudly served...

    Just amazing! As her mother, Mel, I am imagining how much your heart and emotion was bursting. I was moved to tears by the end.

      Perfect performance imo. As a 4 time combat vet she has me standing at attention with this performance. Beautiful voice and performance. I hope she has the success she deserves in life going forward. She is a very impressive young woman.

      Does'nt take much to give you chills. Whitney Houston is still the GOAT. Chris Stapleton is second.

    • @drappointment4509
      @drappointment4509 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​​@@bettywallace3375Whitney Houston is the goat, but go listen to her version of this. She holds the notes too long and tries to make her own version of it. Instead of respecting the song how it was meant to be done.

    Wowzy!! What a beautiful angel she is. I was mesmerized by Kendall's voice. Kendall absolutely knows where she needs to be in this world - I can see it in her eyes - and hear it in her voice. I watched it twice - had to put it on full volume. I cried - happy tears - I'm not even American! Keep sharing that beautiful voice - special angel. Thank you for sharing, Kendall and Mel!

    OMG Mel, you must have been bursting with pride. What a stunning young woman with a beautiful, beautiful voice. I would never be able to be so composed in front of that huge crowd. Clearly, you have done something right regarding your family, despite your self deprecating remarks. I would love to meet them one day. However, meeting you is at the top of my list. Hoping that one day the universe will bring us together.❤

    Amazing Mel....she has been blessed the voice of an angel. I just heard my 23 year old son sing for the first time about a year ago. I never knew he was hiding his gift. He is an introvert and doesn't like attention. Thank you so much for sharing this. It is a gift as well!

The SSB is not a platform for "performers" to defile in their endeavors to brand it as their own, rather it is a stark reminder of the true cost of freedom."

    Ahh. Refreshing. Sung as written. Decent tempo, good vowels, overall good diction. No embellishments. It is about the anthem...not the singer, and she did the right thing from start to finish, including performing in a key that the crowd could sing along. A+ on so many points. Good for you and good for all.
