Whitney Houston's rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Super Bowl XXV is widely considered to be the gold standard by which all other national anthems strive to reach.
Carlos Santana and Cindy Blackman's instrumental version on Sunday night prior to Game 2 of the NBA Finals is as good as any anthem you'll ever hear, though.
