Popular Post Gurn Posted July 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2023 Who ever they pick, I hope they just sing the anthem, not their version of it. don't want to listen to elongated 'runs' and 'vibrato', nor do I want to listen to someone push their voice into almost cracking. Sing it, sing it as written and timed, sing it quick; and get off the ice. 7 2 9 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nucker 67 Posted July 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2023 Canucks need an anthem singer that's going to pump up the fans for the game, like the singers in Chicago and Boston, etc. Really miss opera man actually. he got the building going. Marie Hui is a good singer and she certainly looks nice, but she doesn't make me want to destroy the other team in our building. IMO, George Canyon has got to be the worst, with that fake southern accent. Guy's from Nova Scotia. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our anthem is not a country song despite the best efforts of that inbred sheepshagger. 2 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pears Posted July 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2023 The full time singer needs to be Elizabeth Irving. She doesn’t screw around with the anthem and just sings it like it’s supposed to be sung. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNeil Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 It would be nice to have a singer the crowd can sing along with. Which was the whole point of the anthems at games to begin with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, you don’t like his rendition of the national anthem or his music in general, but it’s a stretch to call him a disgrace to the country. We’re not talking about Justin Bieber here. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
