Some fans of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs have been watching the hours of TV coverage ahead of Super Bowl LV. Most football fans, however, tune into to the broadcast a few minutes before kickoff, in time to hear The Star-Spangled Banner.
Eric Church and Jazmine Sullivan had the honor or singing the National Anthem from Tampa on Sunday night. Their rendition drew rave reviews on social media.

I would buy an entire duet album of Eric Church and Jazmine Sullivan and would be perfectly fine if every song was the national anthem. that was so, so good.

?? Now THAT is how you do a National Anthem. Different artists. Different genres. Different styles. Blended to together to make one unified patriotic performance.
(Also, REMARKABLY hard to sing as a duet in a stadium with the audio delay. Big props.) @ericchurch @jsullivanmusic
