11. I didn't know that either.
But we've also seen in recent decades how "Americans" react to anything questioning their "patriotism". That's probably why I tend to like the different to be different versions and satirical ones :)

12. Same here.
Not everything is sacred. It's a song and should change with the times.

13. Talk about smooth!
:D

I tried to see if there was any Portsmouth Sinfonia version but there's not much out there. Just Classical Muddley ending with 1812, so close enough

15. Rosanne Barr
She showed that piece of shit of a song what it was worth...

No way that should be our National Anthem

I like "This Land is your Land" personally
