Hey..I'm Canadian but your Anthem is a terrific piece of music.
Have you heard ours??....."yawn"
The best rendition I've heard to date was vy Melba Moore. The lady has got the extremes in range, both ways.
Venessa Williams has also done her go at it, but I honestly haven't heard anyone match Melba.
If you can locate an old track entitled "Lean on Me", no this is not the Lean on Me you're thinking of, give it a listen. She'll blow you away...I promise.
