I love this melancholy version so much more than the bursting loud fanfare of trumpets and horns and cymbals. Reminds me of the Revolutionary War era, like soldiers fighting and dying a tragic and heroic death.
Oh say Cant you see? By the dawns early light? What so proudly we hailed At the Twilights's last Gleaming? Who's Broad stripes and bright stars? Though the Perilous fight? Oh the Ramparts we watched? Were so Gallantly Streaming? And the rockets red glare? The Bombs Bursting in air? Gave Proof throught the night That our flag was still there Oh say does that star Spangled Banner yet wave? For the Land of the home free! And the Home of the Brave? On the Shore Dimmely seen Through the Mists of the Deep Where the Foe's haughty host In dread silance reposes? What is that which the Breeze? Top the Towering steep? As it Frittfully Blows Half Conceals half Disposes? Now it catches the Gleaming Of the Mornings First beam In full glory reflected Now shines on the stream! And the Star Spangled Banner In Triumph may wave For the Land of the Home Free! And the Home O'er the brave. And where is that Band? That so Vauntingly Swore That the havoc of war? Ends with Battle's conclusion? A Home and a county Who should leave us no more? Our blood has washed out All actions forgiven Our refuge will save All those Fearful, afraid For the terror of Fight And the Gloom of ones grave And the Star Spangled Banner In Triumph Doth wave! For the Land of victory! And the Home of the brave! When our land is illuminated With Liberty's smile? If a Friend joins within With her Proud standing glory! Rise! Rise! With the Banner! And those fare to retrial And the Flag of her stars? And the Page of her story! For the Millions who've planed! For thier Freedom one's gained! To keep her bright blazon Forever unstained! And the Star Spangled Banner In Glory may wave! For the land of Liberty And the home of the brave! Oh thus be it ever! When freemen shall stand! Beetween ones loved ones And the wars desolation Blessed with Victory and peace! May the Heaven rescued land! Praise the power that Hath made! That preserved us the nation! Then In Conquerer we must! When our cause it is just! And here be are moto! In God is our trust! And the star Spangled Banner In Glory shall wave! For the land O'er the home free! And the home of the Brave!
Beautiful cover of The Star Spangled Banner! I think that this is a nice change from the traditional brass version which tends to get so powerful in some parts of the anthem (not saying I hate the brass version, but that's only an observation), whereas this version makes it more classical, and makes it one of the non-brass versions of the US national anthem I've heard.
O say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
@@emilioalban1234 Maybe it's the nature of America, England used to be known for it's class and deportment and America used to be known for its brash uncouth obnoxious behaviour. strings just sound too classy for America, brass more suits the upbeatness of America
