Hey guys! Just wanted to make a few points after reviewing comments: 1) There’s no need to bring politics into this. We all have our own opinions, but let’s keep them to ourselves & just enjoy the performance! You can never change someone else’s politics, especially by fighting in UA-cam comments haha. So just be nice! 2) Her & Whitney Houston are two different artists with different styles; no need for comparisons. They were fans of each other. 3) It may not seem like it, however comparing this to her inauguration performance is irrelevant & insulting. Two different performances, 5 years apart, of course there’s differences! 4) Lastly, a little side note. Stop being a conspiracy theorist & get the vaccine. Let’s eradicate this virus like we did polio.
People were very surprised at Kesha being able to sing as well, I think it's because they both used to sing these overproduced party songs that didn't show their abilities
Really interestingly, that was Marlee Matlin. She's a famous actor--she was one of the first (if not the first) deaf actor in US television. I saw her and was like, "How they get Marlee Matlin out here?" But I forgot she still will do sign language interpretation for major events to keep spotlight on the deaf and hearing impaired communities. She's a gem. Have loved her forEVER 💜
Cherie Johnson Whitney’s version sets the bar of what to do when singing the National Anthem, however I feel Lady Gaga did an awesome job as well. Two powerful women with equally powerful voices making people proud to be American
I feel it important to note here, Lady Gaga doesn't lip sync because she considers it disrespectful to her audience. This is her singing live, and she f*cking nailed it.
@@Babigh0ulll Yes, and even on television programs that normally expect artists to lip synch a pre-recorded vocal, she is know to always still sing live. She doesn’t consider her show to be legitimate and valid unless the live element is present.
@@Babigh0ulll not so! Where she drunkenly fell off her piano bench. Loved it. You are a fukn puppet. Go away you shitweasels. Go censor real artist's for playing at republican events. HYPOCRITES DESTROYING AMERICA.

@eatlocalhoney "The Star-Spangled Banner" is one of The most poetic songs ever written through the mist of a American-conquering War against British Troops. This version and Mormon Tabernacle Choir/Orchestra rendition is what we ALL need to hear at EVERY Superbowl Game. No Mess Ups, No Slacks, No BUTCHERING!
Right?! Gaga was good, but Whitney still holds the #1 spot for me. Nothing against Gaga, because she did a great job, but Whitney was just better for me.
Lady Gaga, YOU REPPED ♥! I am a 50 year old, Combat Veteran and this is one of the BEST RENDITIONS I have ever heard. From my red-blooded American serviceman's heart, I say THANK YOU! #tearsofjoy
She sang this intelligently, like for example, the first phrase is an actual question. She sang it elegantly, and she sang it powerfully with soul. She made it her own. Well done!
Lady Gaga’s voice gives me goosebumps. Besides Whitney, I have never heard a more beautiful and stunning rendition of our National Anthem in my 64 years. Not an easy song to perform. She nailed it! 🥳🥳🥳🥳. But, I was just as moved by the emotions she showed, and respect.
@@introgauge Maybe you should go look at her live acoustic performances that are diamonds most have not seen... Just try this one Perfect Illusion Sukkiri... Her pipes are out of this world
My family would dread having to hear someone overdo the national anthem, but Lady Gaga was the first and only performance that made my grandpa do a double take and not mute the TV. That's what I like this performance: she didn't go over the top or try too hard, she sang it reverently.
She did a phenomenal job singing the anthem. She didn't try and upstage the anthem by adding in some whoa-whoah-ooh-scadilydat She was dressed nicely but more conservative and sang beautifully. This is the sign of a true artist; when the performance is not about her but about the anthem itself. Well done Lady Gaga!
@kahuna3901 honestly it’s awesome to listen to but really hard to perform unlike the British anthem which is simple and can be sung by anyone, which is a good thing to have in your anthem that ours really doesn’t that much. And I’m an American so yeah but both anthems are good.
@kahuna3901 Bruh, the tune/music came from YOU GUYS. It came from a song written by John Stafford Smith for the Anacreontic Society, a men's social club in London in 1773. So thank YOU............
After hearing this, who could say she is not a great singer. She is a great, great singer. Hers is over weening talent. I get chills when I hear her sing.
Viper Phenom there are more singers out there who can blow low notes and belt high whistles and give riffs and runs, Ariana, Jhud, and so many, that Gaga cannot do. Admit that! Yet she performs with such ownership. Thats why i applaud her delivery here. Ok?!

Craig Anderson While we do love that version , also, and watch it often , this is my son’s favorite. At 18 years old, his favorite tv shows /movies are Thomas the Train and Elmo from Sesame Street, but he LOVES The Pledge of Allegiance and our National Anthem🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is arguably the best live performance of the US anthem. Before, I thought it was Whitney's, but my bubble was burst just now after learning that it was mimed to a pre-recorded track - see the Wings of Pegasus video on the matter.

It's not just the vocals, it's the emotion thst reslly gets me. It's about so much more than just singing and Gaga put her heart and soul into it. After Whitney, she and Demi this year are my faves.

@@Cthulhoop No kidding huh? She's gorgeous. Looks like she's from the Hunter Games here lol, still hot! Even saw her in A Star Is Born & still, her au natural look, i'd still take her in a heartbeat! No doubt, the BEST anthem I've ever heard! Took me by total surprise not being familiar w/ any of her music prior.
This performance, along with her "Sound of Music" performance at the oscars really showcased what an elite vocalist she is, and even though I'm mainly into rock and metal, I have to really respect the skill of Lady Gaga, and a couple of other high skill singers with mainstream success.That last note was incredible. Perfect control and resonance throughout the entire performance, and that final belt was insane. Any fellow singer out there who can't at least respect her level of ability is hopelessly delusional. She can sing pop, rock, metal, opera, and any genre she decides to challenge herself to. Serious respect.
Take away the crazy costumes, the dancers, and fancy stage lighting. And you've still got a professional musician with one hell of a voice! WOW! Way to go, Lady Gaga! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Makes me tear up every time. She absolutely NAILED it. The Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl no less!! She has nerves of steel. She is always respectful, passionate and a STAR!
She KILLED IT! And she knew it!! She knew when those planes were gonna fly over and waited, then hit that last note right on time! GOOSEBUMPS MAN. Damn I’m British and I feel patriotic listening to this lmfao
Now THAT'S how you sing the fucken national anthem. Take note Christina: You don't have to googly noogly it all over the place to "make it your own" - you do it like this - in small parts - and you STICK TO THE MELODY without wandering off into Wanktown. And you do it with this powerful voice and this talent and this respect. And I love Lady Gaga and thank christ she did it so well.
I had never been a Lady Gaga fan before, associating her with the silly meat costume etc. For that matter, I'm not a Superbowl fan. But I happened to be at a burger place with the game on its screens and couldn't believe what I was hearing. No gimmick, this lady. A phenomenal voice and interpretation. Since then, of course, we've all had a chance to see how hugely talented she is in many ways, including as an actress. Never judge a book by its meat cover, I guess.
this shit was so good ill never forget it. my dad says "omg..i didnt know she could actually sing like that" to this day, die hard Gaga fan. can't love anything more than that.
I love the diversity in her voice and what she can express in a song. Here she sings to evoke remembrance and passion for what HAS been fought for, but at President Biden’s inauguration she sings more to show what we HAVE still to fight for. They are sung differently for different purposes, and I just love that.
She is a good singer but this pales in comparison to Whitney Houston singing the anthem. I think everyone who singe this after Whitney tries to do as good a job but it does not work.
I am amazed at this performance. I love it and listen to it now and then, but only after I listen to Whitney Houston's first. An amazing job on our national anthem, Lady Gaga, but you come in second to Whitney. I suspect you really don't mind that though.
Let's not forget that she didn't punk out because she was very sick with a horrible flu. I have a lot of respect for her to be able to rock it like a boss.

Everyone comes around sooner or later. Even I did. For me it was a video of her singing before she was famous. She was just Stefani Germanotta. She sang two songs for a contest. She won second place. I don't think anybody remembers who won first.
I am foreigner from Sweden with a Lebanese descent that is now a a US citizen. And I have to say, what a great country we live in. God bless every inch of America. Amen 🙏🏼
She is a good singer but this pales in comparison to Whitney Houston singing the anthem. I think everyone who singe this after Whitney tries to do as good a job but it does not work.
Well, I knew she was good, even great.....but this rendition is simply masterful....both musically, vocally and performance-wise. She pulls you in with every note, every word, every inflection of her seemingly limitless voice. I loved her Inauguration version...daring cross rhythms and deliberate variations of beats in the bar...accentuating the lyrics here and there. What a ride! But this version here is in a league of its own!
There is a lesson here. How to know if the performer has true talent. They sing the National Anthem like this, with respect. Lady Gaga kept the focus on the anthem and didn't have to try to prove anything.
I'm Canadian and when I saw her sing this at the halftime show it inspired me to learn your national anthem. America has been a very turbulent place this last decade, but the beauty of this song inspires hope. I hope to see America make changes.
This is the best since Whitney. I still think about this performance sometimes. Is it stupid that I was so proud when the crowd started cheering her so hard?? Cause damn was I.
bubbles no. And I am not proud of how we are treating the world now. We were better just 2 years ago. We will get there again...just wait. I have faith.
@colt 1911 are u ok? I love Gaga but america is shit. All the absolutely unnecessary wars, the lies from the government, the pressure on foreigners. America is the devil in person, only Israel is worse! There is nothing to be proud of
man I still say this is the best anthem performance that Ive ever heard. perfect amount of both respect, and some personal flair. and some REAL talent!! just great!!
To think that she went from: "Academy award nominee, and six time Grammy winner" to "Academy award winner, and 11 time Grammy winner" in four years... A queen.
Two highlights: 1. The way she says “see”, she really gets us to listen to the words and their meaning “oh say, can you see?” 2. Transitioning from her mix to that thunderous deep chest voice in proudLY WE HELD”. A wispy tender mix followed immediately by a perfectly resonant chest. Wow
I was more than skeptical when I heard she was singing the National Anthem. I said, "Oh jeezuz, here we go again. After fergie, Rosanne Barr, etc, when will the NFL ever learn." Then she started... I was like wait, what?? from the first note she got it perfect and seemed to understand exactly what to do whereas many other performers see it as a platform to increase their narcissism, she set out to be respectful. I got tears in my eyes, holy sheet. What was I hearing? To sing it this way, so respectfully and proud. I was floored. While I am not a fan of her music, I am fan of hers now.
I remember watching this live... I knew she could sing but I didn't know she was capable of this. I turned to my step dad and said with a tear in my eye, "I believe that's the best rendition I've ever heard." I literally gave her a standing ovation in my living room.
@@brianrhoades5842 Aww don’t say that. I think when she planned that performance, perhaps she has the best intention. I’d blamed people around her that should have told her it wasn’t a good idea, and they didn’t.

I don't know why everyone is so shocked about her voice....She has always been able to sing like this. LOL!
I think because of the many celebrities like Fergie that can't sing and give the really talented celebrities a bad name.
People were very surprised at Kesha being able to sing as well, I think it's because they both used to sing these overproduced party songs that didn't show their abilities
I mean, watch her sing The Sound of Music.

I like this version better from her instead of the Inauguration version
I think they made the arrangement simple so the masses can sing in unison. Yet, oh boy, this Queen ATE that.
She did it traditionally, in purpose
She did it according to the occasion, she knows exactly what she is doing
I agree. But this version is so magnificent, i don't know why she wouldn't have replicated if the vocal cords still cord. Her inauguration version was not traditional - it had 5/4 bars amongst the 3/4
Compare the 2 videos, it’s a different person.
It's not just the vocals, it's the emotion thst reslly gets me. It's about so much more than just singing and Gaga put her heart and soul into it. After Whitney, she and Demi this year are my faves.
When you can sing, play instruments AND you're drop dead gorgeous... 😒
John Doe she is explain about lady Gaga...
Unbelieveble Lady Gaga
sing, play, gorgeous AND writes her own songs. It's rare. Just saying.
Ongie Nicholson GAGA is a multi talented legend. She's capable to sing any Genre. She can Dance, Can Act well, (Well Best Actress in Golden Globes) She wrote her songs, Play lots of Instruments, She's a writer and director. (She Directed Marry The Night, Judas, Guy and she / Written Telephone MV), Producer. Etc.
SOME OF THE ARTIST NOW CAN SING BUT CANNOT WRITE THEIR OWN SONGS, CAN WRITE A SONG BUT CANNOT SING PROPERLY. CAN PERFORM BUT CANNOT ACT. BUT GAGA IS THE COMPLETE ARTIST. WE BEEN KNEW.
And dance. And act.
@@Cthulhoop No kidding huh? She's gorgeous. Looks like she's from the Hunter Games here lol, still hot! Even saw her in A Star Is Born & still, her au natural look, i'd still take her in a heartbeat! No doubt, the BEST anthem I've ever heard! Took me by total surprise not being familiar w/ any of her music prior.
Lady Gaga is a force of nature in this.... She played the pop charts for fools and came out on top.
Well played Gaga.
I use to love her piano version of Poker Face. I remember loving how great she was at singing.
Word.
Fabulous rendition. Lady Gaga can certainly hit those high notes and genuinely sing in a heart felt way.
This performance, along with her "Sound of Music" performance at the oscars really showcased what an elite vocalist she is, and even though I'm mainly into rock and metal, I have to really respect the skill of Lady Gaga, and a couple of other high skill singers with mainstream success.That last note was incredible. Perfect control and resonance throughout the entire performance, and that final belt was insane. Any fellow singer out there who can't at least respect her level of ability is hopelessly delusional. She can sing pop, rock, metal, opera, and any genre she decides to challenge herself to. Serious respect.
LAND OF THE FREE
HOME OF THE BRAVE
ALWAYS GETS ME
Absolutely!
Of course she’s amazing she went to Juilliard
I recommend you to watch her recent performance with The Rolling Stones and U2 at Las Vegas Sphere
Take away the crazy costumes, the dancers, and fancy stage lighting. And you've still got a professional musician with one hell of a voice! WOW! Way to go, Lady Gaga!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes. I just said something to my hubby abt that. Have u heard her sing The Lady is A Tramp w Tony Bennett??!! OMG!! And she is really smart too.
My name is Christy BTW. Mary is my kid. I gotta fix this
The Official Andy Saenz and beautiful and professional and not one L kneeling so that’s respect
I'm probably gonna be late for work cause I'm sitting here watching Gaga videos instead of getting ready but I can't stop it.
😅😆
Makes me tear up every time. She absolutely NAILED it. The Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl no less!! She has nerves of steel. She is always respectful, passionate and a STAR!
Im here bcs of Fergie... Need to hear it... You know why..
Same
Ryky lmao
OMG same!!
Ryky hahahaha YES!!!!!
😂😂 same!
She KILLED IT! And she knew it!! She knew when those planes were gonna fly over and waited, then hit that last note right on time! GOOSEBUMPS MAN. Damn I’m British and I feel patriotic listening to this lmfao
Brexit now. You can have your independence, too.
Long Live our British Cousins
Bewilderbeasts lmaoooo
she sang that absolutely perfect.. and I'm not even an American, but yet feel so proud for you all... beautiful
my feelings indeed
thank u for ur kindness
Now THAT'S how you sing the fucken national anthem. Take note Christina: You don't have to googly noogly it all over the place to "make it your own" - you do it like this - in small parts - and you STICK TO THE MELODY without wandering off into Wanktown. And you do it with this powerful voice and this talent and this respect. And I love Lady Gaga and thank christ she did it so well.
Stealing your googly noogly.
🤣...Google noogly is almost as good as Sgadilydat!
wanktown lol..too many singers go there.
rosanne, fergie, chaka khan..eee-gads. Lady Gaga sung it right.
Googly snoogly 🤣🤣🤣😂😅 this has me rolling
GOOGLY NOOGLY BAHAHA
I’m British and I teared up...
Go Gaga! 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
There WAS that war of 1812 thing! But, love to our British cousins Mate.
@@free322001 dormez-vous?
Her voice in the beginning was a shock to me, this is fucking amazing
Yup!
Wow I had no clue Gaga had such vocals. You can tell that she’s had proper vocal training. So talented.
You should watch her Imagine cover at the Baku games. You'll be amazed.
Ya she is classically trained
EcoR1 or her Stevie Wonder cover ua-cam.com/video/ytw8GQsBChA/v-deo.html
You should of seen her at the Oscars with the Sound of Music medley.
She's serving since her debut era, y'all are just shookt to her performance and not focus on her live vocals
I had never been a Lady Gaga fan before, associating her with the silly meat costume etc. For that matter, I'm not a Superbowl fan. But I happened to be at a burger place with the game on its screens and couldn't believe what I was hearing. No gimmick, this lady. A phenomenal voice and interpretation. Since then, of course, we've all had a chance to see how hugely talented she is in many ways, including as an actress. Never judge a book by its meat cover, I guess.
this shit was so good ill never forget it. my dad says "omg..i didnt know she could actually sing like that" to this day, die hard Gaga fan. can't love anything more than that.
That's awesome haha. Gaga is incredible.
She is a trained opera singer too!
The way is should be sung..every time. She never ceases to amaze. Perfect!
She's living the American Dream: To succeed on your own talents and ability, and giving back when you do. Thank you, Lady Gaga.
Who’s here after Lady Gaga has been announced to sing at Biden’s inauguration?
🤚🏾
Right here
Right here
Me
here
That is the best delivery of that song that I have heard in awhile...tremendous job Lady GaGa...
I've watched this countless of times and I'm not even American but she makes me feel patriotic. 🤣🤣
Same XD
Me too. ❣️
call it imperialism
Me too hahah
You are all now honorary Americans, Welcome aboard brothers and sisters!
Now, we can correct the emcee
It's now Academy Award *Winner* and 11 times Grammy Winner
And counting
I love the diversity in her voice and what she can express in a song. Here she sings to evoke remembrance and passion for what HAS been fought for, but at President Biden’s inauguration she sings more to show what we HAVE still to fight for. They are sung differently for different purposes, and I just love that.
She is a good singer but this pales in comparison to Whitney Houston singing the anthem. I think everyone who singe this after Whitney tries to do as good a job but it does not work.
Whitney Houston..and who would've ever thought....Lady Gaga! Dear Lord that was absolutely beautiful!
Stunning. She NAILED it.
Gaga said Whitney is her inspiration and thank Whitney for her grammy so we all know gaga learned from the best!
I am amazed at this performance. I love it and listen to it now and then, but only after I listen to Whitney Houston's first. An amazing job on our national anthem, Lady Gaga, but you come in second to Whitney. I suspect you really don't mind that though.
Anyone else get choked up every. single. time. you hear this song? Just me?
I am sitting here with tears running ... The song always chokes me up but man...she killed it
Yip, just you.
Every time, my friend. Every time.
I can listen to this 50 times in a row and never run out of tears, best ever.
Good job. I was never a fan until hearing this. Be proud of your talent
I agree with you
Let's not forget that she didn't punk out because she was very sick with a horrible flu. I have a lot of respect for her to be able to rock it like a boss.
Al Schwartz GAGA is a multi talented legend. She's capable to sing any Genre.

My brother wasn't either until he saw A Star Is Born.
Everyone comes around sooner or later. Even I did. For me it was a video of her singing before she was famous. She was just Stefani Germanotta. She sang two songs for a contest. She won second place. I don't think anybody remembers who won first.
I am foreigner from Sweden with a Lebanese descent that is now a a US citizen. And I have to say, what a great country we live in. God bless every inch of America. Amen 🙏🏼
She is a good singer but this pales in comparison to Whitney Houston singing the anthem. I think everyone who singe this after Whitney tries to do as good a job but it does not work.
As a veteran all I can say to you Lady GaGa is THANK YOU
@MOTH ....you have something to say? Well, say it.
I'm an Aussie... my word that was special!
dominic k it’s terrible. So bad in fact you should never, ever come here.
dominic k ...you feeling ok mate? Little stressed out
She nailed it. Sing to express not to impress. It came from the heart.
Well, I knew she was good, even great.....but this rendition is simply masterful....both musically, vocally and performance-wise. She pulls you in with every note, every word, every inflection of her seemingly limitless voice. I loved her Inauguration version...daring cross rhythms and deliberate variations of beats in the bar...accentuating the lyrics here and there. What a ride! But this version here is in a league of its own!
THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
I'm crying so much, 2:40 - DAMN THAT HIGHNOTE. I'm so proud of her.
Dang Girl! You gave me goosebumps!
art kane me to, very different but brilliant
Same and made me cry!
One of the most beautiful renditions of the National Anthem I have ever heard! Thank you Lady Gaga!
This woman is just the best! Voice, talent, beauty, she brought such grace to this performance, she just sang and I love her so much x x
There is a lesson here. How to know if the performer has true talent. They sing the National Anthem like this, with respect. Lady Gaga kept the focus on the anthem and didn't have to try to prove anything.
Who’s here after watching Demi’s national anthem
😂😂😂😂
Me.haha
BEST VERSION AFTER WHITNEY
Demi was the best after whitney
Minahil Kausar. Hell no
Demi cant even pass through Lady Gaga. Whitney is untouchable!
Oh my God! I haven't teared up during the national anthem in decades. She is awesome!!
I'm Canadian and when I saw her sing this at the halftime show it inspired me to learn your national anthem. America has been a very turbulent place this last decade, but the beauty of this song inspires hope. I hope to see America make changes.
This is the best since Whitney. I still think about this performance sometimes. Is it stupid that I was so proud when the crowd started cheering her so hard?? Cause damn was I.
bubbles no. And I am not proud of how we are treating the world now. We were better just 2 years ago. We will get there again...just wait. I have faith.
@colt 1911 are u ok? I love Gaga but america is shit. All the absolutely unnecessary wars, the lies from the government, the pressure on foreigners. America is the devil in person, only Israel is worse! There is nothing to be proud of
Leroy Sané could not have put it better myself ❤️👍🏽
@@sadiomane7720 Okay creep...Have fun in Pakistan or Somali
@@kristab8124 😅😅😅😅😅
man I still say this is the best anthem performance that Ive ever heard. perfect amount of both respect, and some personal flair. and some REAL talent!! just great!!
To think that she went from: "Academy award nominee, and six time Grammy winner" to "Academy award winner, and 11 time Grammy winner" in four years... A queen.
Two highlights: 1. The way she says “see”, she really gets us to listen to the words and their meaning “oh say, can you see?” 2. Transitioning from her mix to that thunderous deep chest voice in proudLY WE HELD”. A wispy tender mix followed immediately by a perfectly resonant chest. Wow
Even 5 Jets can't cover her voice
6 jets darling
I guess you didn't know what the Air Force Thunderbirds consisted of right??? Lmaooooo
Plubyproductions.. you know those are the blue angels, right?
Yes. Yes yes lol
No. Gaga was the highlight!! Not the jets my friend
I was more than skeptical when I heard she was singing the National Anthem. I said, "Oh jeezuz, here we go again. After fergie, Rosanne Barr, etc, when will the NFL ever learn." Then she started... I was like wait, what?? from the first note she got it perfect and seemed to understand exactly what to do whereas many other performers see it as a platform to increase their narcissism, she set out to be respectful. I got tears in my eyes, holy sheet. What was I hearing? To sing it this way, so respectfully and proud. I was floored. While I am not a fan of her music, I am fan of hers now.
Well she’s a very good vocalist indeed! People just criticize the message of her songs
she sang before Fergie did
@@jegocalderone yes but I saw this video after. I don’t really watch American football very much so this was the first time I watched it.
I remember watching this live... I knew she could sing but I didn't know she was capable of this. I turned to my step dad and said with a tear in my eye, "I believe that's the best rendition I've ever heard." I literally gave her a standing ovation in my living room.
She put her own spin on it and it is amazing and Marlee Maitlin doing the sign language is just brilliant!
I love how you can see the emotion in her eyes and how the crowds was so focus and emotional and proud
One of the best National Anthems ever done, great job Lady Gaga
Watch Whitney Houston version. Geez it made it to billboard top 10
@@YouAREyoubeYou
Its Good ,but Gaga much better, Makes me Blown away
She is the only artist that I want to listen her Rendition of S.S.B
im crying so hard and proud to be little monster since 2008!!! god bless america, love from indonesia! my country :,)

Lahh di Indonesia penyanyi terkenal aja salah nyanyiin Indonesia raya 😂 (if you know what i mean)
Goosebumps for days! Can’t wait to hear it on Inauguration Day!
This is the most beautiful rendition I have ever heard and have probably listened to it 200 times. So heartfelt and moving. God Bless America.
Pitch Perfect and respectfully done...
Yu adesten l am now tim is done yu wrong polejay hoax
Absolutely nailed it. Gives me chills, I really felt the meaning. Amazing.
This is by far the best national anthem spirit I've ever felt. Girl you are the face of freedom
She was telling a story not just singing! The flag was still there!!!!!
Oh my God, lady gaga has that phenomenal voice, powerfu, clear, beautiful. A true artist and singer
I was never a big Lady GaGa fan. But I have to say her performance here
changed that.
I really liked how she showed so much respect to the national anthem.
Unlike Fergie
@@brianrhoades5842 Aww don’t say that. I think when she planned that performance, perhaps she has the best intention. I’d blamed people around her that should have told her it wasn’t a good idea, and they didn’t.
