List of national anthem performers at the Super Bowl - wikipedia List of national anthem performers at the Super Bowl Jump to : navigation , search Jennifer Hudson sings the national anthem at Super Bowl XLIII . This article is a list of national anthem performers at the Super Bowl . The U.S. national anthem ( `` The Star - Spangled Banner '' ) has been performed at all but one Super Bowl since its first year in 1967 ; Vikki Carr sang `` America the Beautiful '' in place of the anthem at Super Bowl XI in 1977 . Since Super Bowl XVI in 1982 , famous singers or music groups have performed the anthem at the vast majority of Super Bowl games . Beginning with Super Bowl XLIII in 2009 , `` America the Beautiful '' is sung before the national anthem every year . Some early Super Bowls featured marching bands performing the anthem , and the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance .

It was released as a single a few weeks later , appeared on the album Whitney : The Greatest Hits , and was re-released as a single in 2001 shortly after the September 11 attacks . The 1992 performance marked the first time American Sign Language was used alongside the lead singer . Faith Hill performed the anthem at Super Bowl XXXIV in 2000 . It became popular in country radio . Following the September 11 attacks , her version entered the country singles chart at number 35 , despite not being released as an official single , and reentered the same chart at number 49 in July 2002 . At Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014 , in an emotional and groundbreaking performance , soprano Renée Fleming became the first opera singer to perform the national anthem , scoring the highest ratings for a Fox Network program in its history , and the second - highest ratings for any television program in history . Controversies ( edit ) Just days after Super Bowl XXV , a report surfaced that Whitney Houston lip synced her performance . It was confirmed that she was actually singing into a dead microphone , but the performance heard in the stadium and on television was prerecorded . Since 1993 , the NFL has required performers to supply a backup track . This came after Garth Brooks walked out of the stadium prior to his XXVII performance . Only 45 minutes before kickoff , he refused to take the stage , due to a dispute with NBC . Brooks requested that the network premiere his new music video `` We Shall Be Free '' during the pregame . The network chose not to air the video , due to content some felt was disturbing imagery . Brooks had also refused to pre-record the anthem , which meant the league had nothing to play if he left . Television producers spotted Jon Bon Jovi in the grandstands , and were prepared to use him as a replacement . After last - minute negotiations , NBC agreed to air a clip of the video during the broadcast of the game , and Brooks was coaxed back into the stadium and sang . Following the `` wardrobe malfunction '' controversy during Super Bowl XXXVIII in 2004 , all scheduled performers for Super Bowl XXXIX were chosen under heavy scrutiny . Game organizers decided not to use a popular music vocalist . The combined choirs of the U.S. Military Academy , the Naval Academy , Air Force Academy , Coast Guard Academy , and the U.S. Army Herald Trumpets were invited to perform . This was the first time since the second inauguration of President Richard Nixon in 1973 that all four service academies sang together . Two days after Super Bowl XLIII , it was revealed that Jennifer Hudson also had lip synced . At the beginning of Super Bowl XLV , Christina Aguilera sang the lyrics incorrectly . Instead of singing `` O'er the ramparts we watched , were so gallantly streaming '' , the pop star sang `` What so proudly we watched at the twilight 's last gleaming '' . According to the New York Times , she also changed `` gleaming '' to `` reaming '' . Other patriotic performances ( edit ) The Sandy Hook Elementary School Chorus performs at Super Bowl XLVII . The following Super Bowls featured other patriotic performances besides the national anthem . Since 2009 , `` America the Beautiful '' is sung before the national anthem .

Question: who sang the american anthem at the super bowl


Isotopes of hydrogen - wikipedia Isotopes of hydrogen Jump to : navigation , search The three most stable isotopes of hydrogen : protium ( A = 1 ) , deuterium ( A = 2 ) , and tritium ( A = 3 ) . Main isotopes of hydrogen Isotope Decay abundance half - life ( t ) mode product 99.98 % stable 0.02 % stable trace 12.32 y β He Standard atomic weight ( A ) ( 7000100784000000000 ♠ 1.007 84 , 7000100811000000000 ♠ 1.008 11 ) Conventional : 1.008 view talk Hydrogen ( H ) has three naturally occurring isotopes , sometimes denoted H , H , and H. The first two of these are stable while H has a half - life of 12.32 years . All heavier isotopes are synthetic and have a half - life less than one zeptosecond ( 10 second ) . Of these , H is the most stable , and H is the least . Hydrogen is the only element whose isotopes have different names that are in common use today . The H ( or hydrogen - 2 ) isotope is usually called deuterium , while the H ( or hydrogen - 3 ) isotope is usually called tritium . The symbols D and T ( instead of H and H ) are sometimes used for deuterium and tritium . The IUPAC states in the 2005 Red Book that while the use of D and T is common , it is not preferred because it can cause problems in the alphabetic sorting of chemical formulas . The ordinary isotope of hydrogen , with no neutrons , is sometimes called `` protium '' . ( During the early study of radioactivity , some other heavy radioactive isotopes were given names , but such names are rarely used today . ) Contents ( hide ) 1 Hydrogen - 1 ( protium ) 2 Hydrogen - 2 ( deuterium ) 3 Hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) 4 Hydrogen - 4 5 Hydrogen - 5 6 Hydrogen - 6 7 Hydrogen - 7 8 List of isotopes 8.1 Notes 9 Decay chains 10 See also 11 References 12 Further reading Hydrogen - 1 ( protium ) ( edit ) Protium , the most common isotope of hydrogen , consists of one proton and one electron . Unique among all stable isotopes , it has no neutrons . ( see diproton for a discussion of why others do not exist ) For more details on this topic , see hydrogen atom . H ( atomic mass 7000100782503224100 ♠ 1.007 825 032 241 ( 94 ) u ) is the most common hydrogen isotope with an abundance of more than 99.98 % . Because the nucleus of this isotope consists of only a single proton , it is given the formal name protium . The proton has never been observed to decay , and hydrogen - 1 is therefore considered a stable isotope . Some grand unified theories proposed in the 1970s predict that proton decay can occur with a half - life between 10 and 10 years . If this prediction is found to be true , then hydrogen - 1 ( and indeed all nuclei now believed to be stable ) are only observationally stable . To date , however , experiments have shown that the minimum proton half - life is in excess of 10 years . Hydrogen - 2 ( deuterium ) ( edit ) For more details on this topic , see deuterium . A deuterium atom contains one proton , one neutron , and one electron H ( atomic mass 7000201410177811000 ♠ 2.014 101 778 11 ( 12 ) u ) , the other stable hydrogen isotope , is known as deuterium and contains one proton and one neutron in its nucleus . The nucleus of deuterium is called a deuteron . Deuterium comprises 0.0026 -- 0.0184 % ( by population , not by mass ) of hydrogen samples on Earth , with the lower number tending to be found in samples of hydrogen gas and the higher enrichment ( 0.015 % or 150 ppm ) typical of ocean water . Deuterium on Earth has been enriched with respect to its initial concentration in the Big Bang and the outer solar system ( about 27 ppm , by atom fraction ) and its concentration in older parts of the Milky Way galaxy ( about 23 ppm ) . Presumably the differential concentration of deuterium in the inner solar system is due to the lower volatility of deuterium gas and compounds , enriching deuterium fractions in comets and planets exposed to significant heat from the Sun over billions of years of solar system evolution . Deuterium is not radioactive , and does not represent a significant toxicity hazard . Water enriched in molecules that include deuterium instead of protium is called heavy water . Deuterium and its compounds are used as a non-radioactive label in chemical experiments and in solvents for H - NMR spectroscopy . Heavy water is used as a neutron moderator and coolant for nuclear reactors . Deuterium is also a potential fuel for commercial nuclear fusion . Hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) ( edit ) For more details on this topic , see tritium . A tritium atom contains one proton , two neutrons , and one electron H ( atomic mass 7000301604928199000 ♠ 3.016 049 281 99 ( 23 ) u ) is known as tritium and contains one proton and two neutrons in its nucleus . It is radioactive , decaying into helium - 3 through β − decay with a half - life of 12.32 years . Trace amounts of tritium occur naturally because of the interaction of cosmic rays with atmospheric gases . Tritium has also been released during nuclear weapons tests . It is used in thermonuclear fusion weapons , as a tracer in isotope geochemistry , and specialized in self - powered lighting devices . The most common method of producing tritium is by bombarding a natural isotope of lithium , lithium - 6 , with neutrons in a nuclear reactor . Tritium was once used routinely in chemical and biological labeling experiments as a radiolabel , which has become less common in recent times . D-T nuclear fusion uses tritium as its main reactant , along with deuterium , liberating energy through the loss of mass when the two nuclei collide and fuse at high temperatures . Hydrogen - 4 ( edit ) H ( atomic mass is 7000402643000000000 ♠ 4.026 43 ( 11 ) u ) contains one proton and three neutrons in its nucleus . It is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen . It has been synthesised in the laboratory by bombarding tritium with fast - moving deuterium nuclei . In this experiment , the tritium nucleus captured a neutron from the fast - moving deuterium nucleus . The presence of the hydrogen - 4 was deduced by detecting the emitted protons . It decays through neutron emission into hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) with a half - life of about 139 ± 10 yoctoseconds , or ( 1.39 ± 0.10 ) × 10 seconds . In the 1955 satirical novel The Mouse That Roared , the name quadium was given to the hydrogen - 4 isotope that powered the Q - bomb that the Duchy of Grand Fenwick captured from the United States . Hydrogen - 5 ( edit ) H is a highly unstable isotope of hydrogen . The nucleus consists of a proton and four neutrons . It has been synthesised in the laboratory by bombarding tritium with fast - moving tritium nuclei . In this experiment , one tritium nucleus captures two neutrons from the other , becoming a nucleus with one proton and four neutrons . The remaining proton may be detected , and the existence of hydrogen - 5 deduced . It decays through double neutron emission into hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) and has a half - life of at least 910 yoctoseconds ( 9.1 × 10 seconds ) . Hydrogen - 6 ( edit ) H decays either through triple neutron emission into hydrogen - 3 ( tritium ) or quadruple neutron emission into hydrogen - 2 ( deuterium ) and has a half - life of 290 yoctoseconds ( 2.9 × 10 seconds ) . Hydrogen - 7 ( edit ) H consists of a proton and six neutrons . It was first synthesised in 2003 by a group of Russian , Japanese and French scientists at RIKEN 's Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory by bombarding hydrogen with helium - 8 atoms . In the resulting reaction , all six of the helium - 8 's neutrons were donated to the hydrogen 's nucleus . The two remaining protons were detected by the `` RIKEN telescope '' , a device composed of several layers of sensors , positioned behind the target of the RI Beam cyclotron . Hydrogen - 7 has a half life of 23 yoctoseconds ( 2.3 × 10 seconds ) .

As the story begins ( `` Prologue '' ) , Pierre , a wealthy aristocrat , is having an existential crisis , living a slothful life of wine , philosophy , and inaction ( `` Pierre '' ) . He is best friends with Prince Andrey Bolkonsky , who has left to go to war . Andrey has recently become engaged to the young , beautiful countess Natasha Rostova . Natasha and her cousin Sonya arrive in Moscow to stay the winter with Natasha 's godmother , Marya D. , while Natasha waits for Andrey to return from the war . Marya D. is an old friend of Pierre 's ( `` Moscow '' ) . Marya D. advises Natasha that she must visit her future in - laws , the demented old Prince Bolkonsky and his pitiable spinster daughter Mary ( `` The Private and Intimate Life of the House '' ) , to win their affection in advance of the marriage , which is critical to the status and fortune of the Rostov family . However , Natasha 's visit with Mary and Bolkonsky ends in disaster ( `` Natasha & Bolkonskys '' ) , as Mary finds Natasha vain , Natasha finds Mary cold , and Bolkonsky behaves bizarrely . Natasha leaves their home missing Andrey more than ever ( `` No One Else '' ) . The next night Natasha is introduced to decadent Moscow society after an extravagant performance at `` The Opera '' . There she meets Prince Anatole Kuragin , a young and handsome man and , it turns out , a notorious rogue ( `` Natasha & Anatole '' ) ; their interaction leaves them both feeling confused . Anatole , his friend Dolokhov , and Pierre go out drinking ; they are met by Pierre 's unpleasant wife , Hélène ( Anatole 's sister ) , who taunts Pierre and flirts with Dolokhov . Anatole plots with Dolokhov and Hélène to have the young woman he just met , although he is already married . Pierre finds his wife 's familiarity with Dolokhov offensive and drunkenly challenges him to a duel , accidentally wounding Dolokhov . When it is Dolokhov 's turn to shoot , Pierre stands openly in front of the bullet , but Dolokhov miraculously misses him ( `` The Duel '' ) . Alone , Pierre reflects on his near - death experience and realizes that despite wasting his life , he wishes to live ( `` Dust and Ashes '' ) . Natasha and her family go to church ( `` Sunday Morning '' ) . Hélène finds it amusing to encourage her brother Anatole 's conquest of the young countess Natasha , which she knows would lead to Natasha 's ruin . Hélène visits Natasha and invites her to the ball that night ( `` Charming '' ) . That night , Natasha is scared of what she feels for Anatole , Anatole tells her he loves her . He then kisses Natasha , leading her to fall in love with him in return ( `` The Ball '' ) . Act 2 ( edit ) Anatole and Natasha make plans to elope ( she still does not know that he is married ) , and Natasha tearfully breaks off her engagement with Andrey ( `` Letters '' ) . Sonya finds out about the plan and realizes it will mean Natasha 's ruin ( `` Sonya & Natasha '' ) ; Sonya determines to save Natasha from herself even if it means she will lose her closest friend ( `` Sonya Alone '' ) . That evening Anatole and Dolokhov plan for the elopement ( `` Preparations '' ) , and Dolokhov tries to change Anatole 's mind with no success . Balaga , their trusted troika driver ( `` Balaga '' ) , soon arrives to take them to Natasha 's house and a wild party ensues as Anatole bids farewell to his friends . However , they are thwarted at the last moment by Marya D . ( `` The Abduction '' ) . Marya D. scolds Natasha but then tries to comfort her with Sonya 's help . Natasha screams at them , breaks down and waits for Anatole to come back for her all night ( `` In My House '' ) . Marya D. calls on Pierre in the middle of the night ( `` A Call to Pierre '' ) , begging him to handle the crisis , and Pierre finally learns that the object of Anatole 's conquest is Natasha . Marya D. finds out that Anatole is married and tells a grief - stricken Natasha . Pierre , outraged , searches for Anatole ( `` Find Anatole '' ) . When Pierre finds Anatole , he comes close to attacking him in rage , but instead gives him money and orders him to leave Moscow ( '' Pierre & Anatole '' ) . Natasha poisons herself with arsenic ( `` Natasha Very Ill '' ) but lives . The next day Andrey returns . Pierre explains the scandal to him and asks him to be compassionate , but Andrey is unable to forgive Natasha and will not ask for her hand in marriage again ( `` Pierre & Andrey '' ) . Finally , Pierre visits Natasha ( `` Pierre & Natasha '' ) and he comforts the distraught girl , giving her hope . After their meeting , Pierre experiences a moment of enlightenment himself while seeing The Great Comet of 1812 in the night sky . Music ( edit ) Malloy 's original score ( orchestrated by the composer ) merges Russian folk and classical music with indie rock and EDM influences . The piece is described by the composer as an `` electropop opera '' and is through - composed , with just one line of spoken dialogue , in Pierre and Natasha 's only scene together . On stage , nearly all of the actors play musical instruments augmenting the show 's orchestra . Groban plays the accordion briefly , and plays large sections of the score on the orchestra 's piano . The libretto contains many passages taken word - for - word from Aylmer and Louise Maude 's 1922 translation of Tolstoy 's novel .

In addition , `` Dust and Ashes '' was added for the Broadway production . Productions ( edit ) Off - Broadway ( edit ) Ars Nova ( edit ) The musical premiered on October 16 , 2012 , at Ars Nova ; directed by Rachel Chavkin the show was staged as an immersive production , with action happening around and among the audience . The set designed by Mimi Lien and lights by Bradley King transformed Ars Nova into a Russian supper club . The creative team was completed by Paloma Young as costume designer , Matt Hubbs as sound designer , and Dave Malloy as musical director . The cast included Malloy as Pierre , Phillipa Soo as Natasha , Lucas Steele as Anatole , Amber Gray as Hélène , Brittain Ashford as Sonya , Nick Choksi as Dolokhov , Shaina Taub as Mary , Blake DeLong as Andrey / Prince Bolkonsky , Amelia Workman as Marya D. and Paul Pinto ( who also served as associate music director ) as Balaga . The show was the first production of Ars Nova to ever transfer to Broadway . Kazino ( edit ) In May 16 , 2013 , the show opened in the Meatpacking District at Kazino , a temporary structure designed as an opulent Russian club , where the immersive production was staged , again by the same creative team . The cast reprised their roles , except Choksi , now replaced by Ian Lassiter , and Workman , replaced by Grace McLean . David Abeles took over the role of Pierre on July 9 , 2013 . The show closed on September 1 , 2013 . The show opened for a 14 - week limited engagement in September 2013 at the Kazino and moved to the Theater District , with the final cast of the previous production . On December 10 , 2013 , the two - disc cast recording was released . The show was extended and ran until March 2 , 2014 . American Repertory Theater ( A.R.T. ) ( edit ) The team behind the original production remounted the show at the American Repertory Theatre ( A.R.T. ) in Cambridge , Massachusetts , with performances beginning December 1 , 2015 to January 2016 . Now expanded to a proscenium stage , the set put audience onstage , with unique seating options , with banquette and dining tables added . Scott Stangland took over the role of Pierre , Denée Benton starred as Natasha , Lilli Cooper as Hélène , Nicholas Belton as Andrey / Prince Bolkonsky and the rest of the cast reprised their roles . Broadway ( edit ) The Broadway production at the Imperial Theatre began previews on October 18 , 2016 and opened on November 14 , 2016 , starring Josh Groban as Pierre and Denée Benton as Natasha , both making their Broadway debuts , with choreography by Sam Pinkleton , sets by Mimi Lien , costumes by Paloma Young , lights by Bradley King , sound by Nicholas Pope and music direction by Or Matias . With sets similar to the A.R.T. remounting , the production took the proscenium stage , but removed almost 200 seats from the audience to accommodate the design . Again , the options of stage seats , in banquettes or dining tables is available . The Broadway production cost about $14 million to stage . Following Groban 's departure on July 2 , 2017 , Dave Malloy assumed the role of Pierre from July 3 to 9 , 2017 . Okieriete Onaodowan and Ingrid Michaelson assumed the roles of Pierre and Sonya on July 11 through August 13 ; Onaodowan was originally supposed to begin performances on July 3 . Mandy Patinkin was set to replace Onaodowan as Pierre on August 15 through September 3 , 2017 , but withdrew after criticism from Black Twitter . The Broadway production played its final performance on September 3 , 2017 , having played 32 previews and 336 performances . National Tour ( edit ) Plans for a national tour of The Great Comet are underway with an expected launch in 2019 International productions ( edit ) In September 2014 , the show had its South American premiere , at Teatro Parapluie in Quito , Ecuador , in a Spanish language production .

Critical response ( edit ) The piece was very well received by the New York press ; Charles Isherwood in the New York Times called it `` a vibrant , transporting new musical , '' and both Times theater critics included the show on their Best of the Year lists . The Times ' classical critic , Anthony Tommasini , called it `` a breathless , roughish and ravishing quasi-opera . This is a pastiche score of a cavalier sort . Mr. Malloy lifts styles with such abandon , making willful shifts -- from punk riffs to agitated Broadway ballads , mock - pompous recitative to gritty Russian folk songs or drinking choruses with klezmer clarinets -- that you lose track of what is being appropriated and really do n't care .

On February 2 , 1964 , Judy Garland performed the song in a comical performance on the nineteenth episode of her variety television series , The Judy Garland Show . In her performance she sings longingly , sitting at a small table , as the house around her burns down ; firefighters hack down the door behind her as she sits unfazed singing to the camera . A number of firefighters flee up the staircase , for which smoke billows down , in an attempt to douse the fire . When their attempts fail , they proceed to empty the room of its contents , presumably running them to the street . Eventually , after the room has been completely emptied , one man returns to save Garland ; he grabs her by her waist , throwing her over his shoulder . Garland is still clutching the back of the chair she once sat on , now dragging it across the room as the firefighter carries her out . Throughout the scene , she never stops singing . The song was covered by multiple artists in this period including Bryan Ferry , Judy Garland ( left ) , and Ray Conniff ( center ) ; Freddie Mercury ( right ) is rumored to have recorded the song for an unfinished album .
