Alicia Keys National Anthem Over/Under 2:15: This is one of the awesome props on the board and is one to keep a very close eye on. Just naturally, one would think that this is the Super Bowl and that the performers get all amped up and hold some notes and words out a bit longer than normal. However, even as the performances have gotten more and more elaborate, the song is still designed to be sung in roughly 1:35. Over the course of the last several years, the Super Bowl National Anthem times have been 2:07, 1:54, 1:56, 1:33, 1:55, 1:40, 2:08, 2:10, 1:35, and 1:56, and the 1:56 was the Whitney Houston Super Bowl National Anthem. Going beyond that 2:15 mark is going to be a hefty order.
Will Alicia Keys Be Booed During or After the National Anthem?: There is only a “yes” option at Bovada, which really doesn’t do us a heck of a lot of good. If Christina Aguilera didn’t get booed when she left words out of the National Anthem, there’s very little chance that Keys is going to get booed unless she just totally screws the pooch.
Will Alicia Keys Forget or Omit at Least One Word of the Official National Anthem?: Thanks, Christina. If she didn’t blow an entire verse of the anthem, perhaps we wouldn’t be in this position where we would be talking about performers taking words out of the song. Of course, there’s something to be said about the fact that Keys is promising some sort of special rendition, the likes of which we have never heard before, and that might at least make this prop worth watching, though we have to think that there is a significantly better chance that she puts all the words in than leaves some of the words out.
Will Alicia Keys Add at Least One New Word to the Official National Anthem?: Here’s something that’s a little more interesting. Keys is a heck of a performer, and she has been known to cross the line every now and again to do some very interesting renditions of songs. We’re not all that sure where Keys would be adding a word, but who the heck knows with her?
