[@PeterBarber]

My two favorite National Anthem performances of all time are from Whitney Houston, and now Chris Stapleton. To compare the two is apples to oranges, but I've never been so moved as I was by this version. Truly stunning. How do you guys feel about this performance?

[@Firelightly]

Whitney sang it with precision, innocence and exuberance of youth. Chris sang it as a man who has lived, with reverence, gravity, and the solemnity of one who has loved and lost. Both great, but Chris moved me like no other.

[@_kass3939]

I absolutely agree with you. Whitney’s voice and range is impeccable, but hearing Chris sing this just moved me in such a way that I balled. I felt it deep as if he had just sang it after battle and was bringing the troops home. ❤

[@badmama1962]

Check out PTX at the college championship game!!!! So different, but equally amazing!!!!

[@jennifergiacinto8210]

It was so patriotic, heartfelt and powerful. He had so much soul in his voice, such pride for our great country.

[@Boogietized]

I too felt that Whitney's version was #1, until I heard Stapleton's version. He's #1 now in my book. Whitneys' version while stellar in its own right, was more of a performance (big backup marching band and so on), while Stapleton's is an experience. He brings this Americana sound to it that I've never heard before. One thing that also stands out is it never feels like it's about him, not once. He's singing it like he's telling a story about America and everything America stands for (even if we miss the bar from time to time). It's authentic and honest. Your point regarding how he's doing this dynamic back and forth dance with his guitar is a great observation. I didn't notice that until you pointed it out. Stapleton captured lightning in a bottle with this performance.

[@MKWhitney]

It's been a while since I cried for the National Anthem. It wasn't sung as an obligatory reciting, it was sung with absolute love and devotion to our country. Utter perfection.

[@42442LOVE]

I love and appreciate your use of explaining it as `absolute love and devotion to our country'......!!!

[@lismar2378]

It’s hard to believe he considered not singing his own songs. Thank GOD for his wife Morgane convincing him it was HIS voice people needed to hear. Fun fact: he was valedictorian of his high school class and had an academic scholarship to Vanderbilt to study chemical engineering then dropped out because music is his passion. There are few words to describe how he makes you FEEL when he sings. He’s just got it.

[@BrianWilson-zd8sh]

Well said, I can't explain it but During that performance everybody has passion for the national anthem. It shows in everybody's eyes and expressions during his singing of the song. We are passionate about our country. His singing together tore me apart.

[@ccormx]

Tennessee Whiskey is a cover.

[@shanebell9017]

Veteran here. The ebb and flow you referenced along with the runs seem like the waving of a flag. This also feels like a love song to our flag and country. Love it so much.

[@MuZiCf4n78]

Sounds in the song in comparison to a waving flag. I probably would have never made that correlation. But you nailed it, that's exactly what I hear now in my mind. Perfectly said.

[@danivansuperstar]

This one got me. We are a military family, and when you live on base, you hear the Star-Spangled Banner every day at 0800, and I get choked up almost every time ... still after all these years. When it's played, everyone on base must stop, salute if in uniform, and attention if you're military, hats off, no movement. Even our dogs got used to sitting at attention if we were walking them around that time. Even the kids at the on-base academy all stop and face the flag. It's the most poignant thing, I swear. I digressed a bit, but the point is, Chris's version is the only one I've ever heard that really captures the reverence of this song without overdoing it, not to mention it is technically amazing, too. Now I wish they would start piping this version out for colors each morning. It would make my day every day. Loved the way he interpreted the lyrics, like it was his own story to tell almost. It was undeniably perfect artistically, technically, emotionally, all of it. Thanks for your reaction.

[@maryschaffer3918]

My favorite part of being a Navy wife was dropping my husband off on base and seeing it come to a complete standstill every morning.

[@andreadeamon6419]

Thank you for your service and family's dedication to our country

[@Randylogan63]

Hi❤

[@Meg-td3rb]

At the time I was watching it, I thought how peaceful the performance was in a way, and was thinking that we need that peace and mellowness in this country right now. Good for him.

[@quintondees4501]

Amen

[@jdbnomad]

Anguish and Victory. I'd been trying for days to describe the emotions in his performance. I think that's it. He took us collectively to church.

[@raydemoll5542]

I turn 66 years old next month and I must admit that Chris' rendition of the National Anthem is this most heartfelt I have ever heard.

[@mikebeasley9793]

RAY I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH YOUR ASSESSMENT OF CHRIS'S RENDITION! BTW I TURN 66 NEXT MONTH TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ashley54549]

Chris’s performance was spellbinding and amazing. Nick Sirianni also became the most loved coach in America with his emotional response. ❤️🤍💙

[@tubbmen]

Chris was great, Sriani is still a huge douchenozzle. Him crying didn’t change that.

[@LrdSepheroth]

that has nothing to do with a broken link ??? don't know what you were thinking but ok?..... nothing to do with broken link.

[@terrimobley6067]

Exactly right. He won my heart!

[@romarobbins270]

When a performance can bring NFL players to tears, it’s beyond spectacular. Plus he sings it like he knows the story of the song, not just the song.

[@doreathaannhighsmith2808]

Absolutely. This is the best I've ever heard

[@doreathaannhighsmith2808]

I loved loved loved it all plus he is the first I've ever heard sing the Anthem with conviction. He gave me so much visualization. I cried Hard listening to him

[@Randylogan63]

Yes he does it passionately and effortlessly ❤❤❤❤

[@jennyhagemann5159]

As the widow of a combat medic in Vietnam, I was sooo proud of this..Best I have ever heard.and the Eagles coach weeping was powerful and he really got.

[@MizJilly]

I am so sorry for your loss, and thank you for your service as a military wife. I know it could not have been easy. God bless you!

[@jennyhagemann5159]

@@MizJilly Thank you sweetie, mucj love to you ❤❤❤❤

[@CindySmith0718]

Absolutely the best since Whitney. Not just rote words, not about vocal pyrotechnics--when Chris sings this, you FEEL it. "Perfect" is right. His pitch-bending and that signature dynamic range get me every time--I really liked how you framed that as simultaneous vulnerability and commitment. And I always appreciate when a singer with the skill to riff as effortlessly as Chris does also has the wisdom to use that skill judiciously. Well done, thank you!

[@Randylogan63]

Hi dear❤

[@josianeouellet2632]

I am not american, but this is the best National Anthem I have heard in a long time! First time I have had tears during a National Anthem. It gets me every time...!

[@chrisstapleton6551]

Hello how are you doing how long have you been a fan of mine?

[@Randylogan63]

Hi josian ❤ where are you from

[@thomniced]

This is how his concerts are. You can't tell the difference between the studio version and the live version. SUCH a good show.

[@ddbruno]

He made it a gospel song, that's why everyone could feel it. I've had this stuck in my head for days and it's still got me in tears.

[@dorisg.3]

Really one of the best sung national anthems I've ever heard, tears come to my eyes even as a non-American. Chris is incredibly good, he needs so little ❤️💋🙏🙏

[@Randylogan63]

Hi doris ❤

[@dorisg.3]

@@Randylogan63 Hi Randy...

[@MrTaxSeason]

Hearing that for the first time before the game started felt like hearing it for the first time ever. Ive never once in my 30 years of life been brought to tears by that song until Chris crushed it. He made the entire country feel it rather than hear it.

[@starstuff84]

It doesn't sound rehearsed, as if he's singing from what he feels at the moment. It was the moment and if he sang it again thirty minutes later it would be different. I think that's what makes it so powerful.

[@beccaHbell]

Feel so blessed this playoff season- between Pentatonix at the college playoffs and Chris at the Super Bowl, feel that we have been treated to a Master Class

[@CourtneyLiz1220]

This!

[@arlenek8552]

this is my favorite version, touched everyone, even non-Americans, with it's respectful simplicity and sombreness

[@Melly01]

Great breakdown! Chris brought himself to it, but let the song shine. He didn't make it about himself, it was a show of respect, taste and reverence. And the way he ended sounded so gospel to me. He has so many influences and that little run he ended on screamed, "church!" at me. Chris IS America and his embodiment of so many different styles is perfect to honor the diverse nation we are. ❤️

[@normawright3179]

I agree wholeheartedly. So many influences, gospel, R & B, country, soul, rock, the list goes on and on. Absolutely...he embodies our diversity and all the best of our music. Who knew that this kind of quiet guy from Kentucky could bring a nation and a lot of the world to tears?

[@goaliedon]

Chris deserves another Grammy for this performance alone!

[@rubyemes]

@@goaliedon I said the same thing! There ARE best performance awards and this SHOULD win in multiple catrgories

[@dkadkins6545]

This most genuine sentimental expression of the anthem ever.

[@leeanne7169]

A man and his guitar. What more do we need?? This was fantastic...the best!!

[@wwaynemcg]

You highlight what I noticed first. That "duet" with him and his guitar. He gets the most of his instrument with such little effort...no overkill at all. It complements his voice as no one else can perform. Each would have been amazing by itself, but together it's just utterly golden, bluesy, southern rock and a hint of country!

[@ImaBeliever]

1st time I heard this-I bawled my eyes out-especially when I saw the coach crying-best National Athem Ever!

[@jamiedavis8604]

Your reaction is the "Chris Stapelton" version of reaction videos. Love the musical breakdown. Thank you for sharing your talent so we can appreciate Mr. Stapelton even more. His rendition was a literal MasterClass. I'm still crying after watching it multiple times. Thank you Peter.

[@42442LOVE]

Nobody's using the term.....SINCERITY in his expression of this song, the sincerity of the meaning of the words, the true feeling of its meaning!!! He is exceptional in the feeling of the truth and LOVE!! He deserves recognition and love!!!!!

[@donnaorapallo5216]

Talk about capturing the emotions of this amazing poem that was written by Francis Scott Key. Chris emotionally transports you to the battle at Fort McHenry.

[@steveruddle3228]

One of the most unique versions I've ever heard. Soulful, swampy, blues. It feels relaxed and laid back but has moving phrasing that grabs your heart. Just epic!

[@davidominotto3815]

chris sings the truth it's just unreal his voice could heal any lost soul i love him so much from france with love god bless all my american brothers

[@Froggyh63]

Yessir, hands down, the best version ever. I'm almost 60, and it's by far the best I've heard in my lifetime. I've played blues and gospel harmonica for years and when something musical comes from one soul to another....thats what it's all about. Great reaction Sir Peter!

[@danmcdonagh8924]

The very best. No lip sync here.

[@juliacooper4127]

I'm a classically trained singer, and I loved Chris Stapleton's rendition of this song. I was absolutely in tears

[@kimberlyholloway965]

Best national anthem performance ever! Love Chris Stapleton!

[@michaelloew169]

He just raised the bar and standards for singing the National Anthem, definitely one the top renditions ever sung. He should have this on his next album it's that good. Great reaction too

[@kprepper4975]

This was a great reaction video. Chris sang from his heart. I believe he was singing it for all of us to feel about our country, the way Francis Scott Key felt when he wrote it. #1 rendition by far is from Chris Stapleton. God Bless America!

[@DaisyGray74]

Chris sings from his soul every single time and that’s what makes him so wonderful. There’s not a song he can’t sing and make his own. Hands down my fave cover of the anthem. 🔥 If you didn’t have tears, I’d be shocked. ❤️

[@kellyrouse758]

The best National Anthem performance ever. I love anything Chris Stapleton sings.

[@rubyemes]

Love your unpacking of this performance for the ages. Two additional things he added that I loved...,the simple country double hammer on-s he does on the guitar at the beginning and what he does at the end is go to the 4 chord...very country ending but with a church run. no one like Stapleton, probably ever.

[@barrysmith8329]

Just want to say Chris Stapleton doing the national anthem is awesome. It’s the best day ever heard.

[@lindawarden-burglund9603]

LOVED THIS! Chris Stapleton is spellbinding. His voice is a national treasure and he truly makes you FEEL the music I have to agree with you, Peter. This is now my favorite rendition of our National Anthem. It should be required listening! Thank you, Peter.

Best ever. It was like he was on his back porch just singing around a camp fire. It was so effortless

My favorite singer. My favorite National Anthem. It is truly one of life's most sublime pleasures to listen to the strength, beauty, richness, and emotion of Mr. Stapleton's voice. He brings tears to my eyes EVERY time. (And he also happens to be a kind, compassionate person.) Ask me how happy I am that he didn't become an engineer, as he was slated to when he began college).

With everything that has happened in our country and in this world over the last 6 years, the emotion and the pride in the United States comes through in his voice. This was the most spectacular rendition of the national anthem ever. This man is a musical genius. And the ending was almost gospel like. It was just breathtaking. And his control and range is spectacular and with such a little effort. Chris is the most talented performer of today!! Just the tone in his voice alone brings you to a place of wanting to cry. He can sing anything and bring your heart into your throat. His tone is so moving, That with just one note he makes your heart race. Spectacular in everything he does. This was by far the best national anthem ever. 🇺🇸

[@joycesacks124]

Peter - You have a special knack of putting words to the technique of a singer's voice without complicating your meaning - that is a hard thing to do when listening live to a song. Spot on analysis. Despite all the accolades that Stapleton receives I would still venture to say that his blues guitar style is severely underatted - the guy is a savant.

[@jimreppy8874]

That gospel “Amen” ending was such a great way to finish it off a phenomenal rendition
