    Thank you Sir for not making me cringe screeching like a Banshee, and making my ears bleed. I have heard the National Anthem sung so many times in my life but never like this. I love that you didn't see how loud you could scream like so many do. Bless you young Man. You did Francis Scott Key and your parents proud. Such respect. God bless and keep you and yours always.

The story behind the song is an amazing one and your performance best exemplifies it. Thank you for not adding any woo-woo-woo-woo-woo garbage that modern singers do. This is my favorite performance of this song out of millions of attempts by others that got rich being singers. You are a special young man, I hope you kept your patriotism over the last few years.

      You probably are the only one who tears up up when you hear it, but lots of people tear up when they hear it. I sometimes do when I hear it. I can't say I tear uo when you hear it, though, because I don't even know when you hear it. It would odd to be walking down the street and suddenly start crying and think, "oh, that commenter on UA-cam must be listening to the national anthem".
