Dude still got it…so smooth and unique.
Shout to babyface… he has been doing this for years… the 🐐 goat
Babyface is so amazingly talented. Classy as always. And the epitome that black do not crack. The man is 65 years old.
Simple yet stunning performance I luvvvvvv me some BABYFACE ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Picked the right artist to do this❤️
This is definitely a top 10 performance
Very good rendition. So glad it wasn't overdone.
Excellent rendition.
Baby Face national anthem was so nice , reminded me of his whip appeal song !
Very nicely done..
One of the best renditions I've ever heard... 'Face is, and always has been, unbelievable.
Loved it!❤
This is so beautiful!!!! This was the best part of the broadcast!!!! Outstanding
This was insanely good!
Smooth as butter
Amazing ! Beautiful. version babyface ..
God bless him and America 🇺🇸
Simply beautiful performance!❤
that was sweet 🔥
Babyface is the goat, man did that sound amazing
Beautiful ❤
Damn so smooth with it love it
Right up there with Whitney. Great job, BabyFace.
Up there with Whitney🤔 She was the best to ever do it. Babyface's rendition was ok at best. I would say Celine's or Chris Stapleton comes a close second. His version puts me in mind of Marvin Gay's version.
@@blackhornet25 Oh absolutely Chris Stapleton on top. Didn't hear Celine Dion but she's awesome so I'm sure she was great. I like the calmness of babybface.
@dianejohnson2644 babyface style continued with his rendition. He is very talented and it was better than a lot of artists but nowhere close to Whitney. Imo.
You forgot Fergie
@Em4gdn1m No I didn't.
Best anthem I've ever heard
Listen to Chris Stapleton’s rendition
@bonakidgaming1861 YEP his wad great too.
That was so smooth❤ love u baby face. Fan 4 life
Perfect ❤️🤍💙
Is it me but, he's playing the guitar upside down?...
GENIUS!!!!
Just Saying
Just loved it ALL ❤
Love love love it!
Mr. Smooth ❤
Baby Face cant do no wrong. He knew this song can either make you or break you. He kept it simple and it was a powerful rendition 💯💪🏼👏🏼🤎
Whitney, Chris, Marvin, Babyface..........👏
That was absolutely beautiful. Thank you babyface
1:37 🤩
It's that tune that unites us. Performed beautifully.
Beautiful Nice guitar too
I adore baby face …
Very well done. And only the 2nd person I've ever seen play with an upside-down right-handed guitar lefty like that.
edit: oh wait... the cutout. Yeah so it is a left-handed guitar, he just has his strings upside-down.
Beautiful
Awesome!
Wow. Beautiful
All these kids too young to know about that! And it makes me sad that I was single digits when he was wrecking the charts. As a late 80s baby, we were spoiled with lots of musical legends in their prime.
Beautiful.
Love this rendition!
Simply ❤ Beautiful 🇺🇲
That was beautiful
Awesome
Very nice 😊
GOOD JOB BABYFACE.
❤🎉
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Awesome performance!!!!!
✊🏿
Babyface is the man!!!
Fingerstyle in front of 40 thousand. What a monster.
One of the greatest to ever to do it
Babyface did a great job know extra 👏 👍 👌 😊
Marvin Gaye 83 nba all star star spangle performance unmatched but this was pretty nice same kind of feel.
Phenomenal job 👏🏽👏🏽🫡🇺🇸
"Wow" he is so amazing in a class by him self yes that my FACE Never disappoints ❤
excellent with some jimi hendrix upside down guitar thrown in
Difference is Jimi played with the heavy string on top, though it was an upside-down right-handed guitar that he plays lefty.. Babyface is playing with the heavy string on bottom. Only other person I've seen do this is The Flashbulb (Benn Jordan)
what agreat performance
Everyone else in the NBA was talking about it like he did a bad job but this is way better than Fergie's doing
Really? Players said thsa? Who could possibly say this was bad? Absolutely incredible performance.
His voice maybe decline a lil, the guys is 64. But he kept it relatively smooth and respectful
Yes
Just here to see the full performance the IG of Spike Lee 😂😂😂😂
Aaron Neville vibes ❤
Is he playing the guitar upside down?!?
It's a lefty guitar
@@lojickse7enI’m not sure about that. Look at the strings
@@lojickse7en It is strung for a right hand player but he is playing it left handed, so the strings are reverse from a normal left handed guitar. It is somewhat common for a left handed musician whose primary instrument is not the guitar. He did the same thing last year for America the Beautiful at the Super Bowl.
Fair point... Just to be clear the guitar is still made for a left-handed person. I play guitar and actually have the exact Taylor guitar he is playing but in a different color. Definitely lefty guitar.
But yes, checking out the gauges of the strings, it does look like they are in reverse order. Good observation on that. Jimi Hendrix I believe (who's also a lefty) does something similar.
@@lojickse7en Thanks for pointing that out. I never even noticed the cutaway. Guess I was too busy looking at his chord shapes trying to figure out if he was in standard tuning.
Way better than what was done at the super bowl
😂😂😂😂😂 IDK I’m with Spike.
Luke 8:18
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.
The fact that you guys sing your anthem 100 different ways as a pop song ...... 😅😅😅
What country are you from?
an upgrade from.... Fergie lol
Go west
To see nobody kneeling was awesome. Even see Crybaby James even stand was ok.
One Nation Under God
WHO ELSE THOUGHT THEY MEANT BABYFACE RAY ? 😂
Where’s the black national
Anthem?
In your mother's bedroom
Huh?
BRO STOP
I don't even watch football and I know that's the NFL.
I dont even now what that is
They talked like this was comparable to Whitney Houston's National Anthem...Not even close, not in my top twenty
Dude wasn’t playing guitar live
You’re weird
He played it live, his guitar is strung upside down with the small E up above and the low E on the bottom. So it looks weird as if he’s not playing it because the strum looks reversed from what is actually being picked.
Uhh YES HE WAS! he is one of the greatest guitarist from the Midwest ever
He also plays the guitar upside down because he's left handed
Lol, you must not know who Babyface is 😂
Desafinado
You know this is eating LJ up. He wants to sit so bad during this anthem? 😮😮😮😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😮😮😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Got the lyrics wrong. Sorry bud
No that was word for word
all due respect to a successful artist but that rendition does not exude the strength and prideful grit of the American spirit. That was an absolute snowflake version of the national anthem
Cry baby
Prideful grit lol....this guy 😂
Your mom likes it
Better than your fave
then go watch Kid Rock's version hillbilly.
This sucked and sounded nothing like the national anthem
So awful, his guitar skills just aren't there.
Loved the performance fuck the nba however
Still did not match whitney houstons. No.
Beautiful.
