   What is your favorite patriotic song, and who sang it best?
   
   I once attended a Presidential rally and heard a gospel choir sing the Star Spangled Banner, it was an amazing experience. Especially considering that I am not by any definition a very patriotic person. Wondering on this day of our great country's birth what were your favorite patriotic songs?

      I remember that one too! I honestly can't think of a singer who has done it more justice.

      Me either. And the Country being so United over the war made it even more special.

      Thanks for your answer, I love the sound of a choir in unison. It seems to add power to the song.

      I'd never heard this version before you mentioned it, but after listening I agree it's amazing. Thanks for your answer.
