The Star-Spangled Banner - Super Bowl XLIV

Southern Maryland WaterfrontThe Star-Spangled Banner - Super Bowl XLIV  Super Bowl XLIV

"The Star-Spangled Banner" is the national anthem of the United States of America. Star-Spangled Banner was made in Baltimore, Maryland, in July-August 1813 by flag maker Mary Pickersgill .

Carrie Underwood will sing the National Anthem The Star-Spangled Banner  before this year's Super Bowl game between the Colts and Saints, making it the third year in a row that a a former "Idol" contestant will sing. The national anthem, always bring a chill or a tear. Here are some of the top Super Bowl national anthems. I had a hard time deciding who I liked best. I always loved Whitney Houston, especially "I Will Always Love You", and will have to say that among these clips, Whitney Houston is still my favorite. Mariah Carey, at Super Bowl XXXVI was a close second. I look forward to listening to Carrie Underwood, as I have her CD's too.

I hope this post inspires the great pride we have for our troops and our great country. A special thanks to all of you very courageous men and women out there are fighting for our freedom, risking your lives for ours and saving our country - GOD BLESS
