To each his own! I've long said that Whitney Houston's version was among the best things and the worst things to happen to the song. The best, because not only was it an amazing rendition, but given the timing of it, as we were preparing for a ground offensive and who knew what was to come, it was the right rendition of the right song at the right time. The worst, because everyone since has been trying to top it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 While Whitney Houston's rendition was clean and well done, this offering by Meatloaf was sung from the heart with pride, feeling, and a joy in being American!! The song is meant to be sung with pride and gusto!! It's meant to have a bit of a martial feel with kind of a chest pounding, "standing with your compatriots and facing the world with pride" bravado about it!! The man captured all of that!! He's that guy standing behind the third base dugout, so proud of his flag and country, singing at the top of his lungs for the whole world to see and hear!!!
