“Lift Every Voice” (Black National Anthem)

[FAUlty Gator]

Nothing to say about it other than, how was it possible to find a song that’s actually worse than the original National Anthem. I mean damn man…pick a few chords and stick with them. Holy rambling hell. How on earth is anyone supposed to remember that bullshit? There’s not two repeated notes in the entire thing. At least they’ve disproven another stereotype. And that’s good…I guess.

That is all.

Maybe I'm old school, but there should be only one national anthem at an event like this, the Star-Spangled Banner. If they want something else, could sing America the Beautiful before it. But that's it, keep it simple.

That's a lot of words for "nothing to say about it"

Really no reason for any anthem at a football game.

Im “old school” and I think evert football games should include “Script Ohio” instead of the national anthem.

I want to see one of those videos where someone walks around on the street and asks black people to name the black national anthem. I'm genuinely curious to know how many could name it.

Read an article the other day that some people are pissed at others for not standing or otherwise being dismissive of Lift Every Voice.

I get a little pissed everyone doesn’t stand for “Script Ohio”! I may go but a firearm to ease my anger!
