To Americans, the Star Spangled Banner sounds like home, baseball and apple pie — unless these guys are singing it.
In honor of the national anthem’s 200th anniversary, TIME has found the worst renditions of our beloved Banner and combined them into the most god-awful performance of the national anthem ever heard by human ears.
Voices crack, lyrics are forgotten, vocal runs go horribly, horribly wrong.
Enjoy!
