  • @rva
    Fergie no where to be seen
  • Who else is watching this after Ingrid Andress to check what it can also sound like?
  • @sugaboop7893
    Her delivery of the national anthem was so Disney/ Magic Kingdom coded if that makes sense 😂
  • @m.clarabf02
    she sang like a disney sound track from a princess who fights for her destiny

    I love her approach to this specific opportunity to sing the anthem. Beyoncé is a SMART SINGER. She’s always aware of who’s in the space. She knows how to read a room. She gels with the music perfectly. It was very presidential, classic & it felt timeless. You don’t have to be a fan to give credit where credit is due for SHEER PROFESSIONALISM- even in the cold and with in-ear sound challenges she nailed the performance. And the Obamas just love her. I loved to see the connection she had with them during their reign. Job well done.🏆🥇🎖️

    She had no idea that the future President of the United States was standing right behind her. November 07, 2020

    Even though I love when singers sing national anthem in a very high key to show off their range and make it super powerful, I loved how she sang it in a normal key and just in a heartwarming way. And she still added a high falsetto at the end and some belts. Loved it! The vibrato was also magical.
  • @user-ht1ec1lx6c
    I think Beyonce should sing the national anthem forever. 🥺💙♥️🤍
  • After hearing Fergie, I needed this. Thank you Beyonce. God Bless You
  • @Howlingburd19
    Never forget just how difficult this song is to sing, so it’s always super impressive when someone nails it like this. Nothing will ever stop me from loving my country 🇺🇸
  • @U2BER2012
    The music compliments her beautiful singing.
