    My two favorite National Anthem performances of all time are from Whitney Houston, and now Chris Stapleton. To compare the two is apples to oranges, but I've never been so moved as I was by this version. Truly stunning. How do you guys feel about this performance?

    • @Firelightly
      @Firelightly Рік тому +41

      Whitney sang it with precision, innocence and exuberance of youth. Chris sang it as a man who has lived, with reverence, gravity, and the solemnity of one who has loved and lost. Both great, but Chris moved me like no other.

    • @_kass3939
      @_kass3939 Рік тому +18

      I absolutely agree with you. Whitney’s voice and range is impeccable, but hearing Chris sing this just moved me in such a way that I balled. I felt it deep as if he had just sang it after battle and was bringing the troops home. ❤

      I too felt that Whitney's version was #1, until I heard Stapleton's version. He's #1 now in my book. Whitneys' version while stellar in its own right, was more of a performance (big backup marching band and so on), while Stapleton's is an experience. He brings this Americana sound to it that I've never heard before. One thing that also stands out is it never feels like it's about him, not once. He's singing it like he's telling a story about America and everything America stands for (even if we miss the bar from time to time). It's authentic and honest. Your point regarding how he's doing this dynamic back and forth dance with his guitar is a great observation. I didn't notice that until you pointed it out.
      Stapleton captured lightning in a bottle with this performance.

    It’s hard to believe he considered not singing his own songs. Thank GOD for his wife Morgane convincing him it was HIS voice people needed to hear. Fun fact: he was valedictorian of his high school class and had an academic scholarship to Vanderbilt to study chemical engineering then dropped out because music is his passion. There are few words to describe how he makes you FEEL when he sings. He’s just got it.

  • @danivanriper4061

    This one got me. We are a military family, and when you live on base, you hear the Star-Spangled Banner every day at 0800, and I get choked up almost every time ... still after all these years. When it's played, everyone on base must stop, salute if in uniform, and attention if you're military, hats off, no movement. Even our dogs got used to sitting at attention if we were walking them around that time. Even the kids at the on-base academy all stop and face the flag. It's the most poignant thing, I swear. I digressed a bit, but the point is, Chris's version is the only one I've ever heard that really captures the reverence of this song without overdoing it, not to mention it is technically amazing, too. Now I wish they would start piping this version out for colors each morning. It would make my day every day. Loved the way he interpreted the lyrics, like it was his own story to tell almost. It was undeniably perfect artistically, technically, emotionally, all of it. Thanks for your reaction.

    Absolutely the best since Whitney. Not just rote words, not about vocal pyrotechnics--when Chris sings this, you FEEL it. "Perfect" is right. His pitch-bending and that signature dynamic range get me every time--I really liked how you framed that as simultaneous vulnerability and commitment. And I always appreciate when a singer with the skill to riff as effortlessly as Chris does also has the wisdom to use that skill judiciously. Well done, thank you!

    Great breakdown! Chris brought himself to it, but let the song shine. He didn't make it about himself, it was a show of respect, taste and reverence. And the way he ended sounded so gospel to me. He has so many influences and that little run he ended on screamed, "church!" at me. Chris IS America and his embodiment of so many different styles is perfect to honor the diverse nation we are. ❤️

    You highlight what I noticed first. That "duet" with him and his guitar. He gets the most of his instrument with such little effort...no overkill at all. It complements his voice as no one else can perform. Each would have been amazing by itself, but together it's just utterly golden, bluesy, southern rock and a hint of country!

    My favorite singer. My favorite National Anthem. It is truly one of life's most sublime pleasures to listen to the strength, beauty, richness, and emotion of Mr. Stapleton's voice. He brings tears to my eyes EVERY time. (And he also happens to be a kind, compassionate person.) Ask me how happy I am that he didn't become an engineer, as he was slated to when he began college). THANK YOU, PETER, FOR ANALYZING THIS MAN'S OUTRAGEOUSLY GORGEOUS VOICE! And thank you for crying with me! : ) Anyone else cry?

    With everything that has happened in our country and in this world over the last 6 years, the emotion and the pride in the United States comes through in his voice. This was the most spectacular rendition of the national anthem ever. This man is a musical genius. And the ending was almost gospel like. It was just breathtaking. And his control and range is spectacular and with such a little effort. Chris is the most talented performer of today!! Just the tone in his voice alone brings you to a place of wanting to cry. He can sing anything and bring your heart into your throat. His tone is so moving, That with just one note he makes your heart race. Spectacular in everything he does. This was by far the best national anthem ever. 🇺🇸

    The understated excellence of his performance makes the SONG the focus rather than the artist. It brought more to the lyrics and made it feel very personal/emotional than a performance by someone who is clearly trying to impress an audience with their chops.

    Alright Peter, you got another subscriber. That casual, incredibly complicated, toss-off, emotion-packed "gallantly streaming" riff -- wow. The way he throws in this performance like it's nothing -- that's what the greats do. No showing off -- and that too exemplifies the best of the American spirit. Just unforgettable.

    Peter - You have a special knack of putting words to the technique of a singer's voice without complicating your meaning - that is a hard thing to do when listening live to a song.
    Spot on analysis.
    Despite all the accolades that Stapleton receives I would still venture to say that his blues guitar style is severely underatted - the guy is a savant.

    I am from Kentucky and started listening to Chris Stapleton music back in 2010I. I have always loved his voice and the soul that he brings to his songs. I was so touched by the way he sang the National Anthem, I cried the entire performance. Growing up in Southeastern Kentucky, this is the type of soulful music that I always loved.
