Probably the most pressure that any singer will ever be under is singing the National Anthem. Don't mess up, don't elaborate too much vocally and whatever you do, DO NOT FORGET THE WORDS! And the best advice? START LOW! LOL...Trace Adkins didn't have a problem with THAT at least when he was asked to sing it at the Daytona 500 this year. AND MAN DID HE NAIL IT! He added just enough of his own flavor to it to make it his own, but not too much that people cringed. AND he did it ALL acapella and just NAILED IT!
