I thought Richard did an excellent job! I L❤ved it! 🎉 He hit excellent notes just when needing emphasis …what a Beautiful rendition. I do not think any of that was screaming, was blended lovely and lovingly! ❤❤❤❤❤
If you replaced Richard with Steve Perry then I bet 90% of the criticism would be replaced with something like “THAT’S how a rock legend sings the national anthem “, but bc people don’t know Richard’s singing style, it doesn’t sound right to them. I don’t blame anyone, I think that if I didn’t follow him for the past year then I wouldn’t have known what to think of this performance. I did follow him though, and I loved it!
Because he sang it out with wholehearted Mind n soul n God heard his voice, it does explained who is he n how desperate he was To do the best he could.God made it possible for him what we.think may be impossible Oh! Well God sees the inside of his heart.
Lord, have mercy. He sure did mess that up BIG time. What a disgrace to our country's beautiful Anthem and Flag. People should not be allowed to alter that beautiful song. Very, very few can sing that song correctly and with honor these days, so it seems. So very sad that our country's sorry leaders allow our National Anthem to be altered.
Recently AGT celebrities on the show along with the viewing audience who votes are tending to support the underdogs that have a good background story rather than those that are most talented. Hence, when such winners perform in the real world, the audiences are often disappointed. That’s why I have stopped watching AGT.
This guy can sing. He just needs to practice more. When I first saw him on AGT. He sang the hardest song and gave it justice. I actually like this guy. Not too much people can belt when they sing and his high notes are gorgeous! In time, he is gonna get much better. He is still new….relax. How many people can say they won the title on AGT and a million dollars?
I believe that Richard has a good singing voice. I rooted for him the whole time on AGT. He just needs to get with a voice trainer to help him with his pitch but he can clearly sing and he sings with passion. People can be so mean and nasty with the negative comments. If you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all is my motto
The best singing ever of the national anthem that I have heard in quite a while happens to be none other than Chris Stapleton. I know a lot of people don’t like him, but he did an amazing job on the national anthem.
Here’s my take and I sing and play piano. You couldn’t pay me a million to sing the national anthem for a crowd that size with accompaniment, let alone acapella. That is a hard song. No it wasn’t perfect, no it wasn’t close to the best, but it was better than a lot I’ve heard, and there were cheers in the audience, not boos. So imma shut up and show respect. Unless you’d like to go do that and know you’ll do better you should consider doing the same instead of spewing vitriol on here.
I don’t get why some people are so quick to criticize. For goodness’ sake, he was singing a cappella! I’m willing to bet most of you couldn’t pull off what he did on AGT!!!!
Richard is amazing. Like him or not he has made his mark showing that a hard working motivated person can achieve the American dream of success and prosperity. Way to go Richard!

He sounded better than most that I have heard over the years. He tried
Does he not know the tune to the great song?

Omg he sounds horrific. And he won what????
Loved him on AGT he deserved to win- but what on earth makes ppl think anyone can sing the National Anthem. This was painful to listen to!
I love him! I think he has a beautiful and powerful voice but… I was really disappointed in the way he sang the anthem. It made me cringe.
Because he sang it out with wholehearted
Mind n soul n God heard his voice, it does explained who is he n how desperate he was
To do the best he could.God made it possible for him what we.think may be impossible

Sad this man is getting so much notoriety. He has been given a false sense of his talent!
Some parts were painful
Good lord can’t anyone sing it normally anymore ??????
Richard is awesome!!!! Great voice. Amazing. Cheering for him changed my life
Truthfully there have been much worse stars singing the anthem so stop complaining.. unless maybe you want to give it a go??

I think Richard did the Star Spangled Banner better than most other big names. He emphasized the REAL story of the song.
Fergie did better than this…
Doing it a capella takes some balls.

What was that in the end?
He did waaaay better than Fergie! It was nice and simple. This song doesn’t need a lot of runs. I think he did well.
Wonderful job ❤🎉
He shouted and not sang your national anthem! What on earth happened to his voice? And the way he interpreted it is something else. 😮
Why was he screaming and not singing? That was awful.
He does a great job with his singing.
But the National Anthem shouldn't ever be butchered like that its disrespectful.
When you vote with emotions, you get this.😮😂
Was a little disappointing.off key and not up to his age talent.
It sounded like a hog calling contest!
I thought that it was said that he had died not long after winning on AGT ?? Was murdered?? Does anyone know the real truth about that??
Well good buddie..anthem is not your cup of tea. If you want to hear
Someone sing it the way it was
meant to be sung
UTUBE..ANGIE LEEDHOLM

🤍🤍🤍🤍
He can only sing journey, elton john or high-pitched songs. Please dont ever do this again..
He has a head that looks like he should be skinny. And when he got loud near the end, that was torture

Singing the national anthem is the hardest song to sing in my opinion. It has so much significance and you definitely don't want to mess it up.
That was a terrible rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. Yikes! That was NOT good.
I don’t get why some people are so quick to criticize. For goodness’ sake, he was singing a cappella! I’m willing to bet most of you couldn’t pull off what he did on AGT!!!!
And he won AGT? 😅
Not the best voice at all lol
So Very Great Richard Goodall!
Absolutely beautiful Richard ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love to see this astonishing voice and truly decent man honoring the national anthem!
Great to see you again, Richard!! You’ll always have a fan in Northeast Texas❣️❣️🤠🇺🇸
Richard is amazing. Like him or not he has made his mark showing that a hard working motivated person can achieve the American dream of success and prosperity. Way to go Richard!
Ok for Richard. 😊
