singmesweet & s1owhand, thank you for being the voices of reason. Each human has talents, yet none of us are perfect every time we practice our own specific gifts. People who are so eager to condemn christina aguilera for her mistakes, obviously did not learn from their own personal errors. I don't believe anyone enjoys making mistakes and I seriously doubt that those criticizing christina aguilera, would appreciate anyone running their errors into the ground (public figures or not). Harsh judgment of mistakes serves no purpose...Compassion is a admirable alternative.

if you get your car serviced, do you expect the mechanic to add some oil, check three out of four tires for correct pressure, or do you expect perfection. this was a big event that lots of people paid to see, and she SEEMED unprepared.(she did make sure the show went on and sang beautifully)

I would like perfection, BUT I fully understand that humans are not perfect. I've been to vast number of venues, where I payed for entertainment and I have, yet to attend any that raised to the level of perfection, nor would I ever "expect" perfection. I paid for entertainment, not for perfection.

its easy to research

superbowl performers are not compensated beyond their traveling expenses and room and board

as to the rest, even professionals can have a bad day, as long as its not the NORM, ID chalk it up to them being human


as far as the 'right' way to sing a song, a song consists of lyrics and notes, HOWEVER, each singer has their own tone and their own style when they deliver those notes

the RIGHT way to sing is the way that transmits the story and mood of the song

Its not that she sang poorly.

Its not even that she messed up the words.


My rant is that some of these "professionals" have to make the national anthem about them, and their singing. Therefore they have to put their own "style" into it.

The national anthem is about our country, and what it means to be a part of it.
