Our Star Spangled Banner
Last Sunday I was watching the NASCAR race and this guy that was unknown to me sang the National Anthem. Excuse my language but I just about through up. He was adding to the song like I had never heard before. A few months ago, in this Blog, I posted about a group named the Cactus Cuties. They sing our National Anthem the way it should be. I just felt like you should hear an oncore.
This is a video of the Cactus Cuties, very talented young ladies ranging in age from 8 to 13 singing The Star Spangled Banner. The performance was at the Texas Tech vs Texas basketball game January 20, 2008 in front of over 11,000 people. The Cuties are Andi, Baylee, Blaire, Madeline and Tatum.
