Our national anthem is not the blues or rap, a ballad or a torch song. I would suggest that Christina Aguilera and the other pop stars who insist on putting their own slant on the anthem go to YouTube.
Punch in the name Sara Kahan and listen to a beautiful young lady from Queens with a wonderful voice as she sings at a Met game at Citi Field, respectful and proper. Well done, Sara.
