Guess what Brazil did that the US has been refusing to do?  Look for oil!  And they found a ton of it.  Well, a lot more than a ton.  Meanwhile, the US is looking for solar powered vehicles (these will be sold in Alaska) and battery powered vehicles too (long extension chords are in massive production as we speak)

Bernice: I use the word broke not to mean monetarily broke, but broken, as in it doesnt work anymore... that our system itself is fine, a blimp on the radar doesnt mean we need any radical changes like socialism will bring.

Subject: Re:
Bernice: i hardly care... someone else mentioned they didnt like it to me, and I thought a bit about it, and just wondered if anyone else had felt like that... then I thought about the canadian anthem, which is the next most familiar to me, and i ddnt recall it ever being anything than the stoic version we all know...

I dont mind change either, but I like the saying " if it isnt broke, dont fix it" the US has come a long way on the back of capitalism and free markets, with many ups and downs along the way, whats the point in changing that? I dont mind a tweak here and there, changing times and technology etc, but socialism isnt a tweak, its a radically different direction... we are not broke even close to that bad, IMO!

the Aussie anthem get sung different ways by different people also at sporting events....let it go Chuck, you are only jealous of their beautiful voices and it also proves you aren't open to change.

Czuch:No I'm not a progressive.  ;)  But when it comes to music, there are certain musical tastes I have that allow for individual expression.  Usually I'm a traditionalist when it comes to most things.  Music is no exception.  But thee is a lot to be said for interpretation and putting emotion into a song.  I'd say that when you sing together, you sing it the traditional way.  When a solo, you sing it your way (ala Frank Sanatra)

Vikings: I see.  Well I think for some that's true.  Sandy Patty certainly could hold the notes.  I've never thought of it as I can't sing either way.  I sound like Paul Stooky.

Artful Dodger: I missed the songs, I was talking in general, as a musician, singing where they slide all over the scale bugs me I think it takes more talent to hold the note

Artful Dodger: I don't, I think songs are sung that way because even tho they have a great voice, they are not capable of holding a note for any amount of time

Is it just me??? When did our national anthem become a pop song, ripe for the interpretation of these pop artists who sing them before events???

Sometimes they sound okay, but if you think about it, really, its our national anthem, there is one way it should be sung, and there should be no changing it with artistic impersonations!

BTW, do ever hear the Canadian anthem or any other anthems done so differently every time??? NO, you dont, and I dont like it being done to my anthem either, am I over reacting???
