Does anyone else find it odd?

That a Canadian was singing God Bless America at the Superbowl? She did a fantastic job, but was still weird nonetheless. I thought the National Anthem was GREAT- very understated and respectful and no big fake hoopla. Discuss...

America can also mean North America.

 

[Quiet_Cool]

Sorry guys...

But Canada has its own anthem...
And the NFL is National, so it applies to our Nation. But, hey, if it's sung well...

America can also mean North America.

You have a point... I stand corrected... still thought it was odd!

she obviously agreed to do it...would it be any different if the dixie chicks sung the canadian national anthem at a hockey game ....prolly not

"God Bless America" does not mean North America.

But I think that it is an honor to have a Canadian sing our anthem.

America can also mean North America.

But that's a little different- there aren't any Canadian teams in the NFL. If there were, that would make more sense.

Don't get me wrong....

I'm not saying it's a BAD thing- just odd. Different....

 

[QuickDuck]

seems odd to me.

yes it is an honour to be asked to sing at something like that, but surely they could have found an american national to do it.

so who actually sung it?
