Micky Mangun Criticized 4 singing of Natl. Anthem - Page 2

I thought they were very disrespectful- they could have stated their opinion without being ugly. someone is definitley bitter towards Pentecostals.You think maybe they are a member of ExPentecostals.com?

Of course! You can say: "I think that could have been done differently" or "I wish she had stuck to the more traditional version" without being mean.

Vocally speaking, MM is definitely not perfect, but I still love to hear her sing, mistakes and all!!!

Also, some vocalists do not record well (live), but when you are actually present it may sound a lot different--and feel a lot different.

I went to great lengths to encode video here so we would not have to dig around in buckets of vomit. Many comments of YouTube videos are unclean at best.

Seems some enjoy throwing muck around more than others. ...

I think You tube needs to disable comments on thier video to keep garbage comments out.
Sad that some people have to resort to vulgar language to comment on a video on you tube.

That being said, I ain't American so I could care less how you guys sing it.

I am old fashioned though, I personally dislike changingin the wording (repeating) or style
of national Anthems.

Mickey still is a great singer!

Stress,age,hormonal changes,health issues,will take an entire step(or more!)off your range.It's hard to lower the key in the National A. simply because it starts so low.

So this is what happened to my voice!?

HOw am i suppose to know??? post a before an after video

I don't think it was controversial...rather than people think she "butchered" it. Granted...the finale was less to be desired, but that does not take away from the person she is OR the song deemed to be controversial. Hardly controversial.

No need to get huffy about it

That's Terri!!!

I am only commenting that I don't think it was controversial

Hmmm Now I am thru page 2 and still dont see nothing

Dude Jr person... this isnt that other forum.. everyone here is not out to get someone else... we all pretty much said we liked or loved her singing and that it wasnt necessary what was said in the comments on youtube.. think you need to get a new set of glasses or something... get over it! We are all on the same page

Well, I see that a couple of folks were criticizing, and mostly she is being defended.

The comments read more like "Jealous, Bitter & Washed Up needlessly criticizes more successful singer" than anything else. And there are way more defenses than criticism.

I wouldn't say it has stirred up controversy. Just one little, tiny person spewing forth the vomit that comprises his/her heart. What's down in the well comes up in the bucket.

I agree... many things can factor into throwing off your range. M.M. is a great singer... too bad people are so mean.

I sang the National Anthem at Indiana Republican State Convention back in the 90's... and it was extremely nerve wracking to me...

I was 9 months pregnant w/ my youngest child... and had the national guard marching in front of me and the 10K plus delegates.... and every stinkin' Indiana politician behind me...

I had a lot of people come up to me with compliments and MUCH admiration for singing it while that huge/prego... lol I will say being pregnant does effect breathing.

MissB
I like your wit and wisdom! You are way beyond your years and a more than worthy opponent to any pseudo-intellectual.
