Luke Bryan was given the honor of singing the National Anthem at the Baseball All-Star game. So today you would think that everyone would be saying how great his rendition was, but all people are talking about is how he wrote some of the lyrics on his hand. The singer took to Twitter to explain himself by saying, “Morning everyone. I really wanna explain the national anthem performance from last night. I had a few keys words written down to insure myself that I wouldn’t mess up. I just wanted to do my best. I promise it was from the heart. If I offended anyone with my approach I sincerely apologize. Anytime I sing the anthem it is an honor and my heart beats out of my chest. I did check my watch because I knew the stealth bomber would fly over 2 minutes in and I knew a started a little late. Being a part of the all star game was amazing and I look forward to the next time I can perform the anthem. Thanks y’all. Love ya”
You know what, I don’t think he did anything wrong. How many of you know every word of that song off the top of your head. Now imagine doing it all by yourself with millions of people watching. You would do the same thing that he did to make sure you get every word right. I am surprised more people who are given that opportunity don’t do the same thing. If I did it I would need a huge teleprompter with every word listed to make sure I don’t screw it up. And I bet you I would still miss a word or two.
Now when it comes to Bryan, I am not a fan of his for being real and not taking such an honor for granted.
XOXO DQ!!!
