National Anthems Sung By Our Favorites

Last night in front of millions watching game seven of the NBA Finals, Aloe Blacc sang the national anthem. There have been a few unusual artists and moments when the national anthem and sports spectaculars collide. Here are a few that come to mind…

Billy Joel performed the Anthem at game three of last year’s MLB world series. He’s always a big hit in New York and it sounded wonderful.

Whitney Houston’s 1991 Super Bowl XXV performance is considered one of the finest moments in music-sport history. This rendition became the gold standard of Anthems.

Jennifer Hudson sang at the Super Bowl XLIII in 2009 and did a fine job.

Marvin Gaye sang the National Anthem at the 1983 NBA All-Star Game and it melted every girl’s heart.
