Well, I did until they started always taking that stupid high note in the next-to-last line. I really hate that.


I'm with you on that high note. I like singers to stick to the script. I admire scat but I don't enjoy it at all, if that makes any sense. I've never liked the Star Spangled Banner much. I'd prefer America the Beautiful as the National Anthem. But a marching band playing John Phillip Souza brings me to tears.

I'm a bit uncomfortable talking music with someone who can earn money from her singing. My vocal range is something less than an octave, although I can carry a tune, mostly.

Speaking of national anthems, did you hear that Russia is adopting the old Soviet national anthem? Now *that* one brings tears to my eyes. I really missed it at the latest Olympics.
