Just read a discussion of this performance. They were chatting about how it's difficult to sing higher notes on an "e" vowel because of the way the muscles etc are arranged to create that sound. BUT Adam actually sings a High C note during the word "free" in this performance. This means he is not human.

Just unbelievable!! This is the hardest song on earth to sing and when it's done right, wow, it sends shivers up your spine. What a statement! We can all be different, we can all have different opinions, but we are all Americans and proud... stay brave Adam.

IMO Lambert is already the greatest vocalist of all time, Whitney, Aretha, Freddie, MJ you name them all of them. Their are singers who can hit 5 octaves like Adam, Freddie and Whitney but his ability to maintain resonance and to articulate the lyrics with emotion, and his low to high range is especially is just phenominal. Cannot think of an pop star alive today who comes anywhere near Lambert, with time he well become the biggest male solo star on the planet.

Adam was my mother's favorite. She died exactly two weeks ago in a car accident. I'm sure this one would have been in her favorites tab. One of her 'daily' viewers. Lol.

Surprise guest adamlambert slaying the audience with his version of the National Anthem! #bwaybares2013 http://instagram.com/p/a8_nzwvgbr/
"I personally only got the last half as most people probably did because the whole show was just broadway people doing normal pop songs and I think it took a lot of us a second in that huge location to realize who it was and that he was actually singing live and not some broadway dancer/singer lipsyncing to it. Also the song was only about a minute or so long, he didn't do the whole thing if I remember correctly.
"Perfect. Period. The song is written for a "diva skills" voice - one of the most difficult songs to sing ever written. And his version perfectly fits into the context of the rest of the show. It was an amazing moment."
"I agree totally with jrmartine. Think about how difficult a song it is to sing even in its original version. Add to that the fact that this was a theatrical/Broadway crowd, now multiply the intensity of a "cold walk on" to a Broadway-like stage and factor in an acapella rendition of THE most well-known, beloved patriotic song in the United States. It was a Herculean feat that would have left many (most?) performers quaking and in shambles. Lambert is ridiculously talented! Bravo! Standing O!"
"I don't know if people who post here are truly idiots or just work hard at pretending to be. The show is an outrageous over the top tour de force. It's for a good cause and is every definition of the word theatrical. People should really research before they open their mouths and show just how stupid they are. This was a fund raiser. The theme of the night was the military hence the star spangled banner. How Adam sang it was not only appropriate but necessary and no one could have pulled it off like he did."

@devenlane Well he was introducing the next act, so it still makes sense going straight for the bombast

@adamlambert @ZacharyJaydon @PopWrapped little preview of the vocal mastery we'll see this weekend #SoExcited #GonnaPartyTilTheyTakeUsAway
"The stance, the eyes, the pride, and the voice were all Adam needed to unleash on a tough, unsuspecting crowd a national anthem in unbelievable event. No backup, no net, not even the whole song,and yet this stands out as the most enthralling and patriotic SSB ever. An Adam statement, nevertheless, the attitude was a nod to the theater that denied his brilliance, and the salute to an antiquated Boy Scout institution. Adam does not suffer fools lightly, but schools with mind blowing flair."
