The American national anthem was written by Francis Scott Key and perfected by Jimi Hendrix
Jimi Hendrix's rendition of the star spangled banner at woodstock is beautiful

Quite simply, it's the national anthem of the United States of America. It was written by Francis Scott Key during the bombardment of Fort McHenry in the War of 1812. The melody was taken from a British pub song and new lyrics were added. The song is EXTREMELY difficult to sing, and even though many famous people have sung it at sporting events, VERY few have ever got it right.
I was watching the 2004 Summer Olympics on TV. They were being broadcast (taped) from Greece. The U.S. womens soccer team had won the Gold medal in the game finals. When they received their medals in a ceremony most of them joined in a vocal rendition of the star spangled banner . It was the most wretched, lousy and downright godawful version of that anthem I ever heard in my life, and I've heard plenty of horrible renditions. This was the famous 15 minutes for the ladies, since the networks, the press (and the general public pretty much too) don't really give a rat's ass about womens sports, let alone soccer as much as they do about football, baseball and basketball - especially as played by men. A moment of national pride for the U.S.A., forgotten in a flash. And so it goes.

the modern star spangled banner
Oh say can you fucking see
The missiles fall like rain
Bloody mountains majesty
Dead bodies on the plain
By the bombing's eerie light
See the crimsons waves of red
What so proudly they all fell
The twilight of the dead

This is a form of the Sparkle Shot but with 1 slight difference.
After you blow your load on a girl's face, you throw red, white and blue glitter on the slowly cooling and hardening baby batter.
Hey James, I tried that Sparkle Shot last night and ended up a Star Spangled Banner. I am doing this kindergarten teacher in her classroom right, I get up explode on her face and then tripped fell back onto a small table with red, white and blue glitter on it--it flew through the air and hit her face. She looked so beautiful! I immediately saluted her (being a former marine and all).
