Chris Stapleton Sings the National Anthem at Super Bowl LVII 

Right here🇺🇲

Back again and still getting chills every time.. Soo good!!

I do

I do, my good Sir. greetings from Spain!

Me I just did

A defining moment in history, please explain

@@huh88huh it's fairly self-explanatory but since you can't see it I'll oblige. This rendition will be talked about for decades. That alone is what will make it defining.

If this is a defining moment of your history then I'm proud to be European 😂

@@brycewilliams9778 I’m not even American and this made my eyes water. That has never happened before in my 40 years of life so I understand what you mean.

A defining moment in history?🙄😂 your bar is set pretty low

Same.

Same

Hell ya I had to come back and watch how it's really supposed to be done They should have just replayed this tbh lol

Im glad I didn’t see the 2024 version, too many songs in the place of the one REAL anthem

Same

Thank you. I wish it touched all of us but it doesn't 😊

They are the only things our corporate owned government hasn’t ruined for us yet

There is plenty that live here and hate it. The stronger the hate the stronger the love.

Thank you

Yeah. Our national anthem slaps forsure

Yes, sir...me too not even an American, but after hearing this, feels like one...

❤️

I wouldn’t say that was country. He has a soulful style of singing.

I agree, that wasn't country...that was soul.

Thank you that means a lot to me

Congratulations on obtaining your citizenship 😊 Welcome to the the USA 🇺🇸

Welcome to the greatest country my friend!!

Welcome Home..

Hell yeah brother, welcome to the greatest country on earth!

Welcome!! We love you! 🇺🇸

Delusional😂

@@cornellcornell1no one asked you Andy

@@Scot-tare you confused as to how the comment section works boomer?

every time i watch this video im like Nick cause i was in the USMC for ten years

Un patriota💪🇺🇸❤️

Welcome to the USA 🇺🇸 ❤

and we're glad to have you

You’re a Canadian, buddy… you’ve always been American… just not from the US. Lol

There’s no anthem more beautiful than the Canadian National anthem (from an American).

@@bedminstereric I would love to hear Chris sing it!

A little louder for the people in the back row Ms. Elizabeth!

Okay calm down Becky

AMEN!🙏🇺🇸

He sounded good it all comes from listening to older soulful Black artist soul. Nothing new so it's a big deal to people whenever Caucasians do it. It's just Black singing in whiteface... period

@@mrrice1433 🤡

They still stamped a rainbow flag of humans right in the military presence for some reason

@@BilbosaurGaming I double dog dare you to do an ounce of research into why the crew of an aircraft carrier might be wearing those colors.

And not 2 mins. after the game's end, there was hate, division, chiefs vs. eagles fans, and people who were outraged, and some who cried... in some parts of the country....

it sucked

@@BilbosaurGaming Actually I’m worried you won’t research it, so I’ll fill you in anyway to keep you from blindly spreading your stupidity and bigotry anywhere else. There are countless hands on deck conducting flight operations, with the different bright-colored shirts signifying different roles. This helps everyone on deck to quickly differentiate between them in a busy and crowded space. They stood tall in their uniforms, proudly representing their profession and country. No agenda pushing here, quit reaching.

100%

He needs to perform the halftime show also!

Everything in moderation. However, a Stapleton halftime show would actually be legendary. No Bs, no lip syncing, no choreographed nonsense, no fireworks. Just a man and a guitar with the pipes of an angel.

Yeah, I almost cried too, trying to listen to that mess!!

@@stevecarmichael7000 I know your father very well - he's not who you think he is.

It was so nice to not hear someone butcher the Anthem. And to have Chris Stapleton singing it on top of that is a WIN WIN

@@stevecarmichael7000not enough rainbows in it for you Mary ?

Man I just cried listening to this. Our American lineage runs deep. Land of the free home of the brave. 🇺🇸

to true

Never heard of him but great performance

The only time in history flower of Scotland was in a shadow ❤

“Tennessee whiskey” is what he’s known for most

This is my brothers uncle

You will NOT sit down! His voice LIVE will run through you!!!!

Lucky you! We didn't get tickets 😢

He is amazing in concert. My best friend of 35+ years took me to his concert in June 2023 in Seattle! Amazing!!!!

You're so lucky, I hope you have a wonderful time.🙂

My boyfriend and I saw him in 2015 at the historic Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa, OK and we were "on the rail", and only paid $15 per ticket.

I came here like you did, and I concur ,tearyeyed scouser. 😢

LOL, me too.

Me too❤

same here 😂 watching from Australia. Love Chris 👏🏻

Haha :) Pink brought me here, too. Peace 😊

Same

❤️🤍💙

This man's voice is like NO other

Same here, just gorgeous....

Just listened to it again and cried..again 😭❤️

It's the anthem of our time. It's subdued, contemplative, and yes, humble. The country is in decline, but there is even more at stake than just a country and her borders.

No no, Whitney Houston is still #1, BUT this is an AMAZING #2.

A studio version would just be enhanced, tuned, and digitally mastered. This right here came directly from the soul and the heart and will remain on my playlist for good.

This was a studio version

you said it, we know him personally

this sounded like a studio version. best performance of the night easily.

he a hick

was thinking just about Whitney as I was reading the comments...

I couldn't agree more!

Jennifer Hudson craps all over this

She lip synced so it ruins it for me.

​@@HughJorgan1 as a performance, Whitney was still amazing, probably the best lip sync ever

Whitney, 1991. That is the gold standard.

Ain't no doubt about it.

​@@alexanderlavoie5461no. She lip synched that, this was real from Chris Stapleton

@@johnspinelli9396no she didn’t

You wish it was. I love it but... No

Those runs...they make you believe in God if you don't already hahah! Absolutely incredible.

Me either. It sounds so simple and eloquent. But, if you’re a musician you know how there’s nothing simple about it. I think someone counted the notes he sang in that one run, and It was like 74 notes!! As an American, I was so proud of him!! 🇺🇸💪💪🏾💪🏿💪🏼🇺🇸

@@stevenwilson4910 🇺🇸👍

It's such an inspiring and beautiful rendition of the song. It's simultaneously somber and uplifting and his vocals are not gratuitous, which is the mistake so many people who perform it make.

Amen

Ew you people are so racist

You're right it did. Much better with the volume up and the picture down. Wth does it have to be highlighted with rainbow colors through our military shown and announced that it was an all woman flyover? Still pushing BS instead of being able to enjoy one commonality, us as AMERICANS.

It was perfect!

This country needs healthcare and better wages. But yeah a song.

@@yoyo-jr5ho 🤡

100%. Chris set the bar… sorry to those who follow in his footsteps.

Yeah Reba was very underwhelming

Kinda didn’t like her version

Unpopular opinion but while I recognize Reba is quite talented, I don't care for her voice and did not enjoy her version.

I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT!!!

That’s the coach

There was players shown too crying. But yes the coach as well.

God bless AMERICA 🇺🇸

WELL DONE ❤️❤️❤️❤️

He did that!!

He DESTROYED this song and dishonered it with this horrible broken-voice "jive" version. DISGUSTING

@@jimbritttn hater spotted

@@jimbritttn How many times you going to repeat yourself troll.

@@jimbritttn It was country, not jive. Are you okay?

@@danielhoward4566 Country is "Hank Williams" and other greats, not this noise

Take a visit. Just make sure to plan. It's a huge country.

This comment right here is as good as the singing. Very well put

Thank you for this comment. So many people sing the songs with no true idea of where this country stood when it was written. A young country that was facing another attack by the British wanting their colonies back. Nothing was guaranteed at that time due to the strength of the British empire and could we prevail in the War of 1812. Our White House had been burned down, harbors and borders crossed. When the lyrics “oh say does that star spangled banner still wave” has meaning behind it. People too often sing it with a sense of arrogance and often over the top singing completely missing the mark behind the significance of the words in those lyrics. There was a sense of fear and trepidation. My favorite rendition is Marvin Gaye singing the song in 1983 at the NBA all star game.

Yeah, he is a master storyteller. Jim Croce was also one, but with a very different style.

@@gametime2473 I’ve never heard his rendition. Thank you for letting me know so I can check it out.

Bingo! It's the first time I feel the war and battle behind the Anthem.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯

was whitney's not pre recorded ?

I agree

I thought the same thing!!!!!

Agreed 👍🏾

Whitney's is, and may always be, the best (so far, without competition). But this was good.

👍

Nyc

♥️♥️

👍

👍

Amen

Yes!

As an American, and re-watching this like 20 times, I'm about literally sobbing every time....

Well said! I agree

Facts

He’s a Soulful singer.Awesome raspy voice.

He is definitely more blues than country, at least in how he sang the anthem.

He is one of kind

From a military mama I thank you and your son for your service 🇺🇸

@@dorae4379 ❤️❤️❤️

US Army veteran here.... Sending gratitude and prayers to you and your son 🤍🙏🤍

@@Klutch_Undercover thank you as well.

Sending you a great big hug, Thank you for your sons service.

This one was better imo, as this one was live!

💯 this absolutely was the best one since her iconic performance

I said the same thing!!!

maybe ur exaggerating just a bit, nothing could beat whitney

Nothing was special about his voice or singing your exaggeration is much

This 💯☝️ perfectly said. I wish it was that way again. Not so tense all of the time like it is now.

Agreed

You need to believe in that America now.

Feel the same way man. We still have that same America! We just need to be reminded of who we are as a country

@@andrewchavez7310 no we don’t! What world do you live in! Mexico? Not this America that I grew up in! My kids don’t and won’t have the American dream that was available to me or their dad growing up! Facts don’t care about your feeling! Inflation, government corruption, racist nfl is real boy - get a pair

I swear those 2 did it with such ease but put so much heart and power into it

This, Whitney, boys 2 men top 3 greatest national anthem performances of all time in my opinion. They make me emotional and I’m not even American

SURE !!!

Whitney number one and he’s definitely number 2

No topping Whitney, she had unmatched power. But this was amazing.

The poem that later became the U.S. national anthem was written about the famous Battle of Baltimore during the British-American War of 1812. At one point during this battle, Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Maryland, was bombed for 25 hours straight. I like the fact that you enjoy the American national anthem even though it’s written about the battle between your country and our newly formed country at the time. Pretty ironic but my hats off to you gingerbubbles8. ❤

We love our British brothers and sisters

@@johnguarino8603 it’s true. It’s about Francis Scott Key being a captive on a British boat during the War of 1812. He did write it while GB was bombing. Lol

Thank you 😊 That means a lot

@@johnguarino8603it didn’t become the national anthem until 1931 though. That’s always fascinated me

Listen to tenesse whisky by him it will blow your sox off❤

I hope youve heard more of him by now! Hes incredible.

This isn't even my national anthem and I got tears 😭 What an performance!

U certainly have not heard whitney houston sing it

@@Me-fy8uethat’s why he said “one of the greatest” not “the greatest”, nobody will ever compare to her

@@Me-fy8uehers was pre recorded so it ain’t better than this version

This was one of my favorite renditions of the National Anthem. But I am sure Chris Stapleton respects the "over the top" performances with "flashy notes" just as much as his own. They are artists. Artists are not supposed to sound alike. MOST people like to experience different entertainment. Whitney and Jennifer Hudson's rendition with the flashy notes was just as beautiful as Chris with the humble voice and a guitar. 🇺🇲

AMEN

Amen.

​@Ms. Griffin I completely agree 👍🏿

@@ervin9821 Thanks! 😁

It's been a long time since I've felt proud of this nation. But chris definately made me feel it again

And this one wasnt even lip sang. But i still loved whitney

infused it with down home chicken fried in lard soul! baby, those were Soul riffs!

@@seansimpkins668 Same man. With all the bullshit thats been going on for so long, this re-instilled that good ole feeling of patriotism. Its the greatest song in the land ❤🤍💙

ok

Whitney topped it

@@Broccoli_32 he topped hers*

@@Luke101 no lol

@@Broccoli_32 yes lol

@@Luke101 no

i agree mate

Stapleton...

Nice way to butcher the name it's even in the title. Aussie education smfh no wonder your government took away your guns

He could sing the intro to the Jetsons and I would still probably cry.

Should have done the halftime show

Absolutely!!🙏❤️🇺🇸

I know that's right. He Did that

I agree. I loved it ❤

Did the same.

I did also. I feel many will view it again today. ❤️🙏

Absolutely

That's exactly why. Because the man has respect for his country and it's anthem.

You are right. You DON'T wear a hat while singing this. God bless.

Anybody who's reaction is to judge Chris for his long-haired appearance without the hat is probably not that interesting of a person.

@@sotthapana who are you again?

It’s a shame it was ruined with the “black” anthem afterwards. Guess America’s anthem is for all Americans, except them.

Thank You Sir

@@cherylhamilton4936 thx alot

Thank you for your service

@@2tx215 thanks a lot for replying to me

❤❤❤❤❤😂😂

I agree I’m an Aussie NFL fan and while we have a fair bit of national pride, I am envious for how patriotic the yanks are and they are not afraid to show it. I feel we don’t come close.

Always glad to hear it as the song is about you lot 😂

Me too!

crzy how this websyte deletes evry negative comit.

Same

Me too man

Reba is obviously talented but the anthem should be sung with soul. It shouldn't be a performance. It needs to be genuine and from the heart. This will forever be the best performance

Welcome!

He is amazing. Welcome home, American! ❤

Welcome, friend! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🤝🏽

Welcome welcome welcome! 🇺🇲💯❤️🙏

Hey man, please view Jose Feliciano's performance at the 1968 world series, another magical performance.

❤️

It's our country! 🇺🇸

You’re American too brother

Welcome!

Same here. I have been living in this country for 16 years and I LOVE THIS COUNTRY WITH ALL MY HEART! I think the American Anthem is the most beautiful Anthem in the world. Goosebumps!

As an American I can honestly say you need to come visit. Thanks for the kind words. ❤

Dawg we wouldn’t even be here if not for yall getting our backs back in the 1700s appreciate yall ✊🏾

Don't praise america too much. This country is one of the most evil countries in the world nowadays. Its still freer then some other countries but if things don't change ittl be another communist country. A darn shame.

I think you're being a bit melodramatic, but it was a hearty rendition of the anthem. Chris did it justice.

🤣🤣🤣 People really can't tell acting from singing with feeling and this comment section makes that abundantly clear.

Absolutely well said agree 100%

history? wtf dude its just another countries anthem that was sung.

Not sure if they’re being melodramatic. Honestly, I don’t care about football and I’m not watching the Superbowl, but I did check out this rendition and of the national anthem, and it was truly amazing.

Whitney is right there also.

Whitney Houston

Except for Whitney Houston

@@japhialynne 🎯

It was great but no one holds a candle to Whitney Houston's rendition.

@@japhialynne agree to disagree lol

@@japhialynne yeah everyone has different opinions but i like this rendition more personally but i can still see how whitney houston’s performance is seen as the greatest bc she really did sing her whole heart out but from a technical standpoint i think chris did it better.

Unfortunately, there's a far left faction trying to tear down this tradition in our country. It's sad to see.

Except we ruin it by dividing our own country by singing two anthems.

Come join us. Everyone else is!

​@@frogprice8869He's probably already here lol

@@floridaman727 You're exactly right

Same. A Canadian citizen living in the US for decades, I'm about to take my U.S. citizenship. In a few months I'll be proud to say, "I am an American" and claim this national anthem as my own.

We Love Canada.

I wish more Americans would have the love for it like you do. Thanks for the positive statement. America needs more Americans like you here. Peace from across the border.

I love the Canadian national anthem.

Lived in Michigan, Ontario, British Columbia and now Nova Scotia.. that Anthem always ignites something but this rendition was beyond explosive.

Thank you Gary!❤

Only when the Dem/Lib tyranny regime is eradicated will America find it's true way.

find her way to where?? wtf are u talkin abt?

For all of South Africa's problems since it's democratic revolution, currently a lack of power due to corruption is head of mind, its new anthem is the only one better than the American anthem.

Fellow South African here...this was proper goosebump stuff! Hope US gets back on track

I thought of Whitney too.

Natalie grant 2022....was very good also

Whitney’s still the best

Who?

I said the same thing, he is in my top 5 . No one is dethroning Whitney Houston ( the Goat) but he was up pretty high for me.

💕

They’re not that tough. Men playing sports, actually use their feminine yin energy because they use their bodies to perform the work.

@@GeorgeSpencer985 bro what

@@jacksonactionyt3886what is bro yappin about?

I feel seen 👀 Guilty as charged. Lol

R&B will always have my heart as well. But I love Chris Stapleton rn, so much soullll 😊

I agree. Very soulful

Hyu ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-im6Yo677cMY.html

RU-vid him singing a man's world. Chris is just a great singer period

We must discard evil and store up good. Those who do not may be reborn into this world.

Marvin Gaye was better.

Gaga’s?

You need to watch Marvin Gaye's version during the NBA Game

I was really gonna say that. It seems people are glossing over how truly extraordinary her rendition was. Perhaps it's simply youth. C.S did amazing though, so much soul.

@@mauriceanderson5780 no it really wasnt.

I agree. Most of the time it's self-serving indulgence. But this was pride and emotion pouring out of a human. He kept an artful pace, and he hit every note. Well done rendition that really had me feeling something.

This song was written to be performed from the heart, which is what you get from Chris.

Totally agreed!!

This was definitely heart felt. Check out when Whitney Houston sang the National Anthem, it was magnificent.

You have to check out his music if you havent. He is amazing. Check out "Tennessee Whiskey" live.

it shouldnt have, but ok

How should it not have been emotional?

@@raphaelverde4571 okay Raphael

@@rinse3x Doesn’t matter if there’s 2……………………………….but there’s ALWAYS 1. 😎

Same, that was incredible.

Chris certainly has power

I've heard too many that were awful renditions too.

He’s voice is powerful

💯

Well said!

Ever

Whitney Houston National Anthem is beautiful. I would say this is just as good.

True: his talent is stunning.

I wouldn't really say he's a country artist. More of a mix of bluegrass and rock.

@@801MOTO3 Definitely a blues artist.

@@801MOTO3 he is a country artist. bluegrass is the music of Kentucky where he was born and raised that combined with it’s mountain music in the east of the state was what eventually made its way to the country music you hear in Nashville. Now combine that with the gospel music he grew up with and some blues progressions. It’s still country. He’s versatile but listen to his actual albums. People don’t like saying he’s country cause they don’t wanna say that they like country music lol but it’s what it is at it’s roots the guy hails from the bluegrass state

that's the difference between a patriot ,and a schill .

Whitney Houston and Stapleton. This was primo dude

@@bobdole1570Whitney lip synced hers, the only difference but yea

@@danhtown1 Whitney’s WAS synced. Though man, that version was just one take. Still, Chris is live action. Respect

Pisses all over Whitney

Nah...this is the best. By a mile. This is something else

Same here. During that day

I’m Italian, that’s the same for me. don’t know why

same here haha.

God bless you all. I don't care what the media says. USA loves you all
