Maybe because I live so close to Fort McHenry and know the story so well, there were so many factual errors there that I had to stop listening.

And just to refresh my memory of a BEAUTIFUL version of OUR NATIONAI ANTHEM, I played Whitney Houston's performance version from the (yr??) Super Bowl. The VOICE, the WORDS, the PERFORMANCE, the ARTIST did tribute.

PS: FC, even if there may have been some "artistic license" , the story was interesting.

No need to remove; it just bothers me that with a story so compelling told straight, someone would embellish it so.
