I love MM, maybe because I'm a white male, but I prefer Whitney, and Jennifer Hudson was damn good. Never heard Marvin until now, tears. Blacks sing it with hope, like it should be sung. It was bad idea for Colin to kneel during this, when blacks own it so deeply and completely. Nothing but love from me.
They dont give him enough credit this man is the greatest of them all an still going to me listen to this song he got alot of soul behind him he should be up there the first ehen he hit 28 years old go man go keep doing your stuff for the young an older people .T.L.C.
Ok, thank you to whoever found this video. I thought Whitney and Ga Ga couldn't be topped. I have tears in my eyes listening to how effortlessly Michael McDonald sings the Anthem. Look at the people standing bheind him all shaking their heads feeling the soul. Thank you Michael for not trying to do too much with the notes and keeping it the way Francis Scott Key wrote it.
La Bogne No lie, I seen Michael McDonald 3 times live. He is a BAD SOB. I seen him at the Keswick theater in Glenside PA years ago which holds about 1300 people and this Black Woman stood up behind our row and yelled out, Make iUs CREAM Michael” Everyone heard it and was Laughing their ass off. If u never seen him live, he is a sight to witness !!!
Michael needs to be inducted into the Brothers Hall Of Fame. This man right from the very first note sounds epic. Michael, sing just single note please, maybe a C note. Ahhhhhhhhhhh......Okay sorry, let me get off the floor back onto my feet. Dammmmmmn!

Unbelievable voice....to still sound like that at his age is amazing. Luther and Whitney would have been applauding that performance.
0:22 dude behind him felt that right there
I been feeling him for months.. listened to his book last Spring and his songs have been on repeat ever since. Such a talent.
One of the greatest voices of all time❤
Michael McDonald should sing everything. End of story.
WOW, never saw this before....one of the very best renditions....!! Love this man with his soulful voice and kindness!!
Michael Mac is always buttery smooth!
AWESOME MICHAEL!!!!!!! Best I've heard anyone sing this!!! ox Bless you
Mikes voice was perfect that night.. Top three Whitney, Marvin, and Michael.

Michael Jackson? Michael Bolton was good too.

A voice of an Angel! I wouldn’t have been able to look directly at him if I was there!! Great memories #DontLookDirectly@McSUN!
Love-love-love Michael's voice and sung with his whole heart!

This guy is how old and can still blow like that… that is bloody amazing
Im watching this 2022 november LOVE MMD🌹
One of my favorite artists! A really beautiful and stylish, powerful performance!!!
Now that was a singing of the National Anthem... That was sung beautifully.
What a range and a beautiful rendition v well done Michael 🇺🇸
This is the way it should be sung! Amazing voice and a performance that doesn't take away from the hymn!
I just barely saw this . I LOVE HIS VOICE. ONE OF THE TOP 5 RENDETIONS.
Totally awesome. Thank you for sharing. Wow!
Truly...does it get any better than this? Stunning.
Good to hear him sing the national anthem ❤
Should be mandatory to watch this for any potential anthem singing.
Exactly. Pure, gorgeous, no bullshit singing.
And that’s how you do it. Straight through with no frills. Stl represents.
He did a bit of ornamentation.
Absolutely Monumental.
Bravo Michael bravo I love you so much and you do the best singing ever with age is even better❤❤❤❤❤
WOW...Just Wow!
NOW THAT IS THE WAY THAT SONG SHOULD BE SUNG!!!! AMERICA NEEDS THIS RIGHT NOW - THANK YOU MICHAEL!
Absolute perfection.
He did really good it’s such a hard song to sing and so many have been unsuccessful at singing it.
Mike, you nailed it buddy!
Michael McDonald.
Brought tears to my eyes and reminded me yet again how very lucky I am to be a citizen in this Magnificent Country!😎👍
Excellent ! Love you ,Michael !
I dare anyone to imitate his singing! So unique!
Mrs. Bush was here listening at Michael singing the anthem.
I watched that from the "Katrina Bar" at the IP in Biloxi. Not much else around...but Michael did nail it.
100% in the box. If you don't have tears in your eyes, the singer has not done their job. He did :'(

1:54-1:57 _Now_ we cookin' wit' goose grease!
That sounds nice 😏
I get to see The Doobie Brothers with Mr. McDonald in about 9 days.
×0.5 please

🎶 How's he gonna know what we're sayinnn 🎶 iiiisss he gonna do it for all of ussss
@@mikemihalis8341 Yeah, I hired him for the night, 2:50 an hour ago, so don't skip on the conversa-ha-hastiooooooooooooooooooon!
@@summermcpherson8209 that sounds nice 😄
Family Guy & Rush Hour 3
Peggggg
He ruined the Doobie Brothers
Most amazing part is the people in the back are standing for the national Anthem. A coward move these days. So pathetic.
Man, they could have gotten in two innings of play at that tempo. Way too sloooooooooooooooowwwwww.
