I think she skipped the words:
" Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming"
I think she went from twilight's last gleaming...to...and the rocket's red glare...

It actually kinda makes me sick how FEW people answered this question. No matter what country your from or what side of the world you claim.... everyone should know these basic things! Have a little fckin pride! Americans esepically god dam I am ashamed right now! Especially in this country so many people whine and cry and ask ask ask with there hands held out, and what do they give in return? People wanna know what the country can do for them? I would say 90% dont even know something as simple as the National Anthem. Makes me wonder sometimes why i even do what i do?! My national anthem was written by a man named Key. He wrote in in the year 1814, based on events taken place in the year 1812 whilst we were at war with of course..... England! Naturally we kicked the sht outta the brits as usual. But for one night at Ft Mchenry the Royal Navy gave us quite a show and thats what inspired Mr Key to write the Star Spangled Banner. O! say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming. Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming. And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream: 'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more! Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.' And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

She couldn't be any worse the Rosanne Barr singing it.
Besides you ever tried to sing it and you have yourself singing through the stadium PA system. There is a like a 5 second delay there. It can rattle your cage
Give the lady a break.
