Best version of the National Anthem?

[cjjtulsa]

Most any version that hasn't been Southern gospelized, R&Bed, or flogged into several twisted, winding octaves.

I heard the National Anthem done by a barbershop quartet at an OSU wrestling match years ago that just sent chills down my spine. I'm a sucker for well-done a capella harmonies, though.

I totally agree with this.

I tend to agree, and on that note, this may be my favorite so far.

Most of the time people seem to drag it out - I like the up-beat versions like Dolly's :

There is a local country station that plays one acapella every morning, I love it, no butchery either. I'm not sure what station it is or group. The station is in Tulsa, Ft Smith, or Muskogee. Sorry I listen to alot of different stations.
