Thank you Sir for not making me cringe screeching like a Banshee, and making my ears bleed. I have heard the National Anthem sung so many times in my life but never like this. I love that you didn't see how loud you could scream like so many do. Bless you young Man. You did Francis Scott Key and your parents proud. Such respect. God bless and keep you and yours always.

[@TheSean7564]

Sam, you keep doing you! I love your voice and, more importantly, the fact that as a 15 yr old young man, you had the sack to stand in front of your school, peers, etc. and sing our National Anthem (or anything else for that matter!). If you keep doing your best to be your best you are going to have a bright future, young man, Thank you very much for lifting my spirits.

[@jermainamburayan580]

Well done, Samuel, Thank you.....You sang it just the way the great men of the past would have sung. No frills and dragging and ooohhhs but just the way a true patriot will sing it. God bless you, Samuel.

As a Irishman I believe this young man did his country proud he sang his national anthem with out any showboating the sound of the words. He sang it straight and strong, well done young Sir🇮🇪🇺🇲

Sam Keith: Beautiful rendering of our National Anthem. Keep up your singing. You have a terrific voice.

[@stevewilliams4999]

Wow!!!! Brought chills and tears to the eyes of this veteran and professional musician who accompanied fantastic Ohio high school music groups and was also a military musician... THANK YOU YOUNG MAN for performing our National Anthem as it SHOULD BE: with dignity, honor, respect and pride. Your pitch is perfect. Most beautiful presentation I have ever been privileged to see and hear. Thank you.

Hats off to this young man for 1) actually knowing our national anthem 2) performing it admirably.

Wow!!! How can a 16 year kid sound like a seasoned professional. Such a magnificent voice, and of course rendition of our National Anthem.

This young man is amazing. First, to do this in front of his peers, outside, and without accompaniment, it’s very special. Professionals routinely tear up the national anthem. This was so respectfully performed. Congratulations to him and his parents.

As a high school senior, who is a varsity football player, and plans on majoring in musical theatre in college, this means so much to me. I was asked to sing the national anthem at my schools homecoming game this year and was looking around on KZbin when I stumbled upon this. Amazing talent! Getting into CCM is a HUGE honor, and it’s awesome to see other people who are like me out there. Thank you!

Samuel... the best thing about your performance is that you sang it the way that one of the great men of that time would have sung it. The story behind the song is an amazing one and your performance best exemplifies it. Thank you for not adding any woo-woo-woo-woo-woo garbage that modern singers do. This is my favorite performance of this song out of millions of attempts by others that got rich being singers. You are a special young man, I hope you kept your patriotism over the last few years.

[@markh9875]

You probably are the only one who tears up up when you hear it, but lots of people tear up when they hear it. I sometimes do when I hear it. I can't say I tear uo when you hear it, though, because I don't even know when you hear it. It would odd to be walking down the street and suddenly start crying and think, "oh, that commenter on KZbin must be listening to the national anthem".

It's unbelievable that a so-called president and government would purposely want to destroy a country.
