Star Spangled Banner- A Different Treatment

Sung in a minor key. I had no idea what that meant, but he explained it in the introduction.


It sounds a hell of a lot more "singable" than the standard version.

This needs to be laid over an end-of-American-empire video. So sad. It's already more than I can do to sing "land of the free and home of the brave" unironically.

*or* - for a more hopeful ending he could switch to the major key at the end.

Very nicely done. I was disappointed that there was no underlying harmony, but then he made it more powerful when he added it halfway through.
