Hit Or Miss

The Star-Spangled Banner, the National Anthem of The United States of America is a poem written by 35-year-old poet Francis Scott Key inspired by the Battle of Baltimore, fought on September 12-14, 1814.

With a range of one and a half octaves, this patriotic hymn is being performed by prominent vocalists in America. With countless live stadium performances witnessed by tens of thousands spectators, sometimes their renditions came out phenomenal, sometimes a disappointment.
