Every morning in first, second, and third grades the teacher would take attendance; she would lead us in "The Pledge of Allegiance", and then we would all sing this song. Nixon was president. The culture and the country were aflame (sometimes literally). My mother would have us watch the TV as the American POW's were returned home from Vietnam, as well as Nixon's resignation speech. My father was working 70 hours a week to keep our family happy and thriving. I was too young to absorb the true gravity of all these things, but I was made aware of them. I knew that bad things were happening, yet I still felt that I was a part of something greater, something good. I was made to feel warm and safe, not just within my family, but within the American culture itself. Starting off each school day with these rituals was comforting and inclusive. We were being taught to be individuals, definitely, yet we felt a loose, but strong connection to a collective whole. The civil rights era was hitting its' stride, and a bright future looked probable. We were imbued with a sense of unity, without the sternness of conformity. I fear that young people now are deprived of this. I am alarmed about them being taught to be jaded and cynical, to view their country as something to lash out against. They are not given a balanced frame of reference by which to view their country. They know nothing of The Marshall Plan, or the rebuilding of Japanese industry after the war, for instance. They are deprived of a sense of pride and hopefulness for a country that has made horrible mistakes, yet still strives to be and do better. I love my country and my fellow citizens, warts and all. This song fills me with grateful pride, and I feel privileged to have been a part of it.

@@295g295 The Star Spangled Banner spans a wider vocal range than a lot of other songs, from very low notes to very high notes. It's considered a difficult song because people who have the vocal range to hit the low notes at the beginning of the song may not have the vocal range to hit the high notes later in the song, and vice versa.
