Yes.  I don't like the pitch intervals mentioned above.  Also the thing with solos.  I get musical creativity, but sometimes something should be played/sung as written.

We should switch to Hail Columbia.  That is a better song.

No, and we should begin using all four verses plus the 5th verse from 1861.
I'm a fan of the other verses but are we really about to have a ten minute national anthem?

I walked right into that one.

Hail Columbia, happy land!
Hail, ye heroes, heav’n-born band,
Who fought and bled in freedom’s cause,
Who fought and bled in freedom’s cause,
And when the storm of war was gone
Enjoy’d the peace your valor won.
Let independence be our boast,
Ever mindful what it cost;
Ever grateful for the prize,
Let its altar reach the skies.
