Don't Scream it,Hum it,Strum it,Scat it.
Have the artist perform it beforehand so there is no controversy.Play it.
Sing it. It should be sung to please the whole audience not one segment of the
audience.

In 1968 because of his sucessful RCA recordings which was the same company
as NBC, Feliciano got to sing the Star Spangled Banner for the baseball All
Star game in Detroit, he simply strummed his guitar in a slower, bluesier
version with a bit of scatting at the end that angered many viewers sparking
a controversy that forced cancellation of many scheduled concerts and TV
appearances.
