Back in 1983, while I was still in kindergarten watching the TV show Emergency and eating Spaghetti-O’s, Marvin Gaye was performing the National Anthem in his own style at the NBA All-Star game at the Forum in Los Angeles.

Additionally, Coach K, the head coach of Duke University and Team USA Basketball, picked this song as the anthem for this years team and also to visually inspire them before they began their quest for gold.

    What a refreshing version. I hate it when people butcher this, to try and make themselves look good!
