      It's a love song to white supremacy

      Amen! I honestly feel more like I should be cuddled up with my special lady on a bitterly cold night, in front of a roaring fire in our fireplace and us enjoying a nice bottle of wine while listening to this rendition, as opposed to standing at attention facing the flag.

      Fergie tried to and failed miserably 😂

    I'm usually against doing "too much" while singing the National Anthem, unless you kill it. Luther killed it.

    Underrated performance..... you hear about a lot of Super Bowl performances but not this one

    At 1:12 we see Reggie White, a class act, defensive end, who sadly died at 43 from a heart attack. RIP Reggie. One of my faves Luther Vandross, gone but never forgotten, with a wonderful version of our national anthem. RIP Luther

    I believe this was one of the only performances where I saw big grown men become emotional.

      Check out when Chris Stapleton sang the anthem last year in 2023 for the Super Bowl. The Eagles coach was in tears.

    Gone too soon… Truly a 1 of 1. I don’t think there’s ever been someone that could sing so perfect and effortlessly while having a smile on their face the whole performance.

    You can tell those guys was trying not to cry to Luther's voice and focus on the game lol

    • @MickyFree-fw3lg

      Back when NFL players would shed a tear out of shear respect and patriotism when they listened to the national anthem. Instead of taking a knee to shit on it and everything it stands for because some thug got shot by a police officer in justifiable circumstances.

      Old school north American TV was on NTSC en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTSC
      NTSC is really interlaced video at 29.97 fps. I deinterlace using YADIF and I double the Frame rate to 59.94 progressive.
