In particular by those that need to slow it down "and make it their own". If I had my way a military band would aways play it and forget the dang singers... Ok, done ranting, play game! My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Each session a choir group from different schools around the state would sing it to start things off. On this particular session it was a single female soloist from one of the high schools. I don't think she had been prepared to preform in front of 10,000 fans. She got started ok but part way through she froze and went silent. The crowd didn't miss a beet and sang with her at a high volume to finish. It was actually fantastic and one of my fondest memories..
