      She did sing it beautifully but I think sometimes 'artists' take a little too much liberty with our anthem. People come to watch the game and players come to play...nobody came to watch someone's version of the anthem. She sang it well, though.

    With the monotonic beat backing like that it is VERY easy to miss a beat or a phrase and she would've been destroyed and shamed for life. That's some talent! I can see why she asked the camera to back off.

      I'm hijacking this comment. Cyndi Lauper killed this, but many in this thread are unaware that this is a cover. This is not her interpretation of 'the Star Spangled Banner', it's her cover of Marvin Gaye's interpretation of 'the Star Spangled Banner'. She follows the exact same beats, and hits every note he hit and she KILLS IT!
      Mad props to her for doing it, but let's give ol' Marvin some credit here as well. I think Cyndi Lauper sang this less as a rendition of the National Anthem, and more as a tribute to Marvin Gaye.
      here's Marvin's version - ua-cam.com/video/QNydcwDriuU/v-deo.html

      @@coreyjudd4676 You're probably right about the tribute. And she did one beautiful job of it. Seemed like she decided not to try and hit the high notes as much as she usually does but I have a feeling she didn't want to take any chance of her voice cracking for this one. I'm just guessing because I know she can hit those high notes with unbelievable ease. And for the person commenting on the spelling of her name, lol. She spells it Cyndi Lauper, yes indeed.

They went crazy for Cher but the vocals were what you expect, and it was more about her costumes and stories. It felt like she was on a farewell tour but she's still going strong, ha. Cyndi should've been the headliner, because I could've listened to another hour, with I Drove All Night, Hole In My Heart, Goonies, When You Were Mine, What's Going On, and I'm Gonna Be Strong!

      Why does it matter what nationality you are? Does it make your comment have more or less value, because of your country of origin? Just asking...as I would like to know,” lol.

    She's So Unusual. She's So Gifted, and works damn hard, prepares a very special performance, and does it like absolutely nobody else in the history of music. Incredible. I feel lucky to have lived in a time when such an Artist painted her canvas in a way nobody ever dreamed of. Cyndi Lauper is a Lighthouse Beacon to every Muzo {Australian Music Lover} who follows her, showing the way. "Don't do it Like Me. Find your own special music in your heart and your soul. Then do it like You." Thank you for what you have done, and for all the heartfelt music, the soundtrack to my life. I appreciate you. Nemo. NTF:ed

    Of course she did, she's an incredible talent :) It's also gotta be the most unique, beautiful, and understated renditions I've heard. Most singers use the opportunity to have "big" moments and show off their technical capabilities. Cyndi is always about singing from the heart, and interpreting the words in an honest and sincere way.

  • @m.e.c.1007

    Certain singers will get out there and just run up and down the scales with your voice which absolutely butchers the song.
    Been along comes Cindy who breaks it down into its simplest form and takes us on a journey to that night. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

    It’s a shame that she didn’t get the credit for that song. It was the best rendition of the national anthem I’ve ever heard. She is known to be different in to do things her way not to be disrespectful but to just do it her way which is the American way.

    With all do respect...
    Believe me...
    I am Guatemalan, and as far as I know, a national anthem, should be singed following a pathern.
    I believe, the respect and formal way to sing it, should be one that everyone should be able to be followed by the people who will sing it.
    This particular way of doing it, by professional singers, Hollywood stars, etc, is something I consider just a show ...
    Again, with all do respect.
    By the way, no hard feelings on Cindy...
    She is one of my favorite female singers, I love her voice, and have loved her songs since the 80's...
    In fact, she showed respect.
    I have never said that respect is not shown by these singers.
    As I said, just a comment.
    Blessings to you all...
    And God bless the U.S.A.
