Like literally, "Fucking Haydn wrote our national anthem."

The United States national anthem was stolen from drunken Englishmen.

Jimi Hendrix perfected the whole thing anyway.

OMF.. I agree with you all the way.
Yes, the tune was borrowed from a folk song.
Which is alright.

But I do agree 100% Jimi's version is probably the most honest interpretation I've ever heard.
He actually captures the violence of the song...No else ever tries.

If had to pick a proper song for the US anthem it would probably be: Woody Guthrie's, This Land Is Your Land.

I feel it does a much better job of encompassing the American promise.
