In the beginning she was like “Ya’ll bouta be blessed”
Lmaoo ikr
hahahaha.
lol
+Solar Chase HAHAHAHAHA
Kill💀💀💀💀💀💀
Fergie no where to be seen
Rebecca Vocal Athlete thanks god!!!
LMAO I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THAT
Is Beyonce singing live here or is it lip synch?… I’d be honored if some fans of the classics would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of Maurice White’s SEPTEMBER, Tom Petty’s INTO THE GREAT WIDE OPEN, and Prince’s MONEY DON’T MATTER 2 NIGHT on my channel in tribute to 3 of the greatest musical artists that the USA has ever produced. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital enhancements. Thanks and RESPECT to the legends.
Will Ritter she is singing live, just with a pre recorded track to back her up because she was practicing for the super bowl and didn’t feel prepared enough to sing 100 percent live
💀💀💀💀
Fergie is probably watching this with us now…
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I had never really pay attention to US’ national anthem, but after Fergie’s controversy I’m curious with the other singers’ rendition of the anthem.
GarageStudio LMFAOO
LMAOOO
After hearing Fergie, I needed this. Thank you Beyonce. God Bless You
Maximum Blaze MEEE TOOOO HAHAHAHHAHAHA
SAME LMAO
Maximum Blaze LMBO!!!
LMAO, yes! like i had to find this video just so that I wouldn’t have Fergie’s voice in my head.
S A M E
Lmao they did a presidential inauguration at a Beyoncé concert.
Liberal or Republican? Bitcoin Slot Machine you mean you like trump
FaKe ItsEndy Yes because hes done a whole lot more in 3 years than obama did in 8.
If trump had to kill 50% of the world to make America better he would do it, while Obama would’ve been more thoughtful and wouldn’t do it
Donald trumps water stare , There are a lot of bad things Donald Trump has done too. A lot in 2018 alone. Please try and pay attention to the cons as well as the pros, and see which side weighs out the most. My personal opinion is that I don’t like my president, and I’m not about to get hostile.
I have a few reason I just…don’t like him.
1. He is a bit of a sexist, which sometimes I see him come off to be.
2. He posts toxic tweets that encourage others to possibly send hate to the people mentioned in them.
3. He takes credit for some of the things Obama actually accomplished.
Thank you for reading this through. If you wish for further evidence, I’d be happy to comply. I don not wish to get into a heated argument, but if you will, please pay attention to the other sides of things as well.
Thank you, Venturous.
Venturous Hope Im not attempting to get into a heated argument either, But i appreciate you educating me on some of these things & being kind about it. The person i replied to just made an accusation & didnt back it up, but i applaud you for at least replying with something that isnt an opinion. Have a great day!
Who had to cleansed their ears with Beyonce after watching Fergie
Me , totally me
Roseanna Bar
Just now
Me 😂
Me 😭🤣🤣
Michelle Obama looking like “you better sang it girl” 🤣
😁
Yup. Sang “past tense” recorded and played.
nEpheLim oh really? Sounds live to me
Its pre recorded.
@@nephelim9491 Gurl shut the hell up! She sang live with the backup track. Nice try
joe biden’s looking like “that’s beyoncé infront of me”
If i was biden at that moment i would die on live tv lolll
Logan Formagus a sniff never hurt nobody
ATS_ it looks real bad though
Coloboard Almost as bad as Trumps 25 accusers
Antonio Iniguez They never claimed anything against him and it isn’t even illegal, it’s just weird. Trump has had affairs with porn stars multiple times while he was married to the First Lady and he claims he’s Christian 🤣
she sang like a disney sound track from a princess who fights for her destiny
💪🏻🇺🇸💪🏿
That literally came in to my mind
So true xx
Her destiny’s child? 👀
Sounded better than that. Lol
She had no idea that the future President of the United States was standing right behind her. November 07, 2020
It would be iconic if she sang for his inauguration
OMG just noticed Biden was standing behind Beyoncè
Making America Great Again, like in real sense…
@@AP-mb8cu I think it’s gonna be Lady Gaga since she has been a huge supporter and even campaigned along side him
@@simon_9613 Love it! What a moment ahead to look at for 2021
Such a beautiful tune. Got goose bumps. One of the most beautiful national anthems.
The music compliments her beautiful singing.
10 years later, this is still iconic!
Indeed 🇺🇸🇺🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸
Iconic the lip syncing?
Wow hahaha
@@greenlantern9577 she sang along to a backing track.
@@thebadassbxtch she even confess, why her fans still want to believe she did this Live?
@@thisp666why her detractors want to act as if she can’t sing?
She owned it without making it about her. Iconic! It take a true artist to do that with this song. Loved her performance here!
Beautiful. Classy. Not over done. Bravo, Beyonce 👏👏👏 Always a class act.
Even though I love when singers sing national anthem in a very high key to show off their range and make it super powerful, I loved how she sang it in a normal key and just in a heartwarming way. And she still added a high falsetto at the end and some belts. Loved it! The vibrato was also magical.
What did he love? First Presidential time: “Why Cage 🦜 Sings ” Youtube moment… “Whitney Houston error live shots fired… Tho, extremely dusappointing
“Natasha Miriam Sasha Obama.”
Took our legacy with such low Nobel Peace…( hopefully my Consumer Rights Litigation violated on General Blood Brother Pentagon DD-214 orders) consideration regard…
“Beyonce Nobel appreciation with Regard to customs as well as Constitution Laws changes… Timeless Class…

yeah! i feel like her national anthem performance for the NFL was more of what you described, showing off her range and a bit more “playful” with it, but at this inauguration i think she really tried to stay as classy as she could as it was a more “serious” matter imo!
What a peaceful, calm and beautiful voice.
I agree. Very peaceful. Her delivery was strong and soothing.
Never forget just how difficult this song is to sing, so it’s always super impressive when someone nails it like this. Nothing will ever stop me from loving my country 🇺🇸
I love her approach to this specific opportunity to sing the anthem. Beyoncé is a SMART SINGER. She’s always aware of who’s in the space. She knows how to read a room. She gels with the music perfectly. It was very presidential, classic & it felt timeless. You don’t have to be a fan to give credit where credit is due for SHEER PROFESSIONALISM- even in the cold and with in-ear sound challenges she nailed the performance. And the Obamas just love her. I loved to see the connection she had with them during their reign. Job well done.🏆🥇🎖️
This was pre-recorded lol
@@therealvlad505 Then she was prepared lol…she didn’t have time to prepare with the live band.
I am a Ghanaian but I am addicted to the American anthem ❤❤
@@therealvlad505 and she performed (sang) along to the pre-recording.
Her delivery of the national anthem was so Disney/ Magic Kingdom coded if that makes sense 😂
Bro that’s literally what I was thinking about!
This might seem random… but I wish America was more like Disney. Just think of the iconic Disney intro that plays at the beginning of every movie. Imagine America being like that. It could’ve been such a great country. “The New World” offered an opportunity to start from scratch and fill the land with glory and beauty. Of course, I’m not saying that it was right to take the land from its indigenous peoples, but that’s another matter. Instead, we built garbage, particularly during the post-WWII period. Imagine America matching the inspiring and magical vibe of Beyoncé singing The Star-Spangled Banner. If I was in charge, I would let Disney’s Imagineers, the people who design Disney’s projects, create a vision for America’s future. I would let them plan this country and create awesome designs. Unlike most planners and architects, they are truly creative people that know how to create beautiful places.
@@Daniel-jv1ku What your describing is what communists think their country is about to be before well…communism. Grass is always greener.
