Yup, too much warbling. It would bother me if someone did that with our anthem. Actually I'd laugh myself the sick if someone did a Whitney/ Mariah style version of God Save the Queen!

Don't you ever have opera singers do it? We have some wonderful home grown talent at our big events (Kathryn Jenkins is a current fave). Don't let them loose on foreign anthems though.

From the BBC:
Quote:
Tony Henry belted out a version of the Croat anthem before the 80,000 crowd, but made a blunder at the end.

He should have sung 'Mila kuda si planina' (which roughly means 'You know my dear how we love your mountains').

But he instead sang 'Mila kura si planina' which can be interpreted as 'My dear, my penis is a mountain'.
