As a retired Marine, I must admit Kendall's version brought tears to my eyes. The purity and almost haunting clarity of her voice evokes a visceral response which highlights the true essence of this anthem. The SSB is not a platform for "performers" to defile in their endeavors to brand it as their own, rather it is a stark reminder of the true cost of freedom. Kudo's to you Kendall, for your beautiful rendition; it is for people like you whom I humbly, and proudly served...
Perfect performance imo. As a 4 time combat vet she has me standing at attention with this performance. Beautiful voice and performance. I hope she has the success she deserves in life going forward. She is a very impressive young woman.
@@bettywallace3375Whitney Houston is the goat, but go listen to her version of this. She holds the notes too long and tries to make her own version of it. Instead of respecting the song how it was meant to be done.
WOW! Probably the most beautiful rendition of Our National Anthem that I've ever heard! It literally brought me to tears! Thank you Kendall! Thank you Mel for sharing with us.
Wowzy!! What a beautiful angel she is. I was mesmerized by Kendall's voice. Kendall absolutely knows where she needs to be in this world - I can see it in her eyes - and hear it in her voice. I watched it twice - had to put it on full volume. I cried - happy tears - I'm not even American! Keep sharing that beautiful voice - special angel. Thank you for sharing, Kendall and Mel!
Definite chills both times & I’m from Australia!! What a beautiful voice with such natural authenticity & grace when singing her own national anthem! One of the best I’ve heard👏🏻
Absolutely beautiful!!!! The only other artist that sang our Anthem Acapella wonderfully was Whitney Houston at the super Bowl prior to the start of the 1st Afghan war. Seriously I love our Anthem and your daughter brought tears to my eyes!! Thank you for sharing...I know you and Chris are so very proud!!!!🇱🇷💫❣️
That is one of the best song versions of our anthem I've ever heard. She sang it with feeling and pride!❤ Ward's can't describe how inspiring that is❤❤❤.
OMG Mel, you must have been bursting with pride. What a stunning young woman with a beautiful, beautiful voice. I would never be able to be so composed in front of that huge crowd. Clearly, you have done something right regarding your family, despite your self deprecating remarks. I would love to meet them one day. However, meeting you is at the top of my list. Hoping that one day the universe will bring us together.❤

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing, Mel. Kendall, as a music major it is hard for me to get goosebumps from the National Anthem. I had them listening to this! Congratulations on your amazing weekend!
Wow. Just WOW! Not an easy melody....and yet she made it seem that way - beautiful restraint, control, nuance, you name it.....but you guys have had a front row seat to that level of skill her whole life. Thank you for posting this. You and Chris must be beyond proud.... 🤩
