For me, there is only one version of the National Anthem and every other attempt is compared to that standard. You know what I’m going to say, don’t you? That’s right: Whitney Houston. Whitney Houston delivered the most phenomenal National Anthem I’ve ever heard and what she did to the word “free” is mind boggling. Maybe that’s why I was less than impressed with Fox’ “New Girl’s” Zooey Deschanel’s version
I’m not saying she has a bad voice, I wouldn’t go that far. She definitely has a nostalgic, classic quality that is highly marketable. She’s an Indie voice and there’s plenty of room for her. I just don’t think she should have been singing the National Anthem where it really is do or die. As soon as someone opens their mouth to sing that song, I’m instantly comparing them to Whitney. I can’t help it.
She is the Queen of the Anthem, and when I compare Zooey to Whitney there is simply no competition.
Now, some people are just being mean to Zooey and slamming her singing, saying she can’t sing at all.
What do you think? Did you hear her version? If not, check it out below.
Honestly, I was more impressed with Zooey Deschanel’s eyes than her voice.
I couldn’t leave this post without adding Whitney’s version. Make sure to listen to Whitney’s version of the National Anthem.
R.I.P. Whitney, you left us far too soon.
