John Brancy, National Anthem GOAT.

[Joe Ranger Fan 1960]

This guy is the best I've ever heard. Great voice. True to the Anthem. Riviting to see. Sings with quick pace. Sublime. Temporal perfection. His presence at MSG is part of the winning formula that only happens in New York. When he pauses, I can almost hear the opposition's nads shrink.

Yeah, this guy rules. I hope he's the full time guy going forward.

 

[Greg02]

I really appreciate that he's so good at singing he doesn't need to showboat at all. His voice just... speaks for itself.

 

[17futurecap]

Awesome pro, hope his work keeps him in NYC, and he's our guy going forward.

 

[GENESISPuck94]

John Amirante was my favorite. But I love John Brancy's performance and I think he should permanently sing the Star Spangled Banner at every Rangers game at MSG. Like John Amirante he has genuine passion when he sings it and doesn't do some stupid pop twist nonsense butchering it.

I still get choked up watching/listening to John Amirante's final performance for the Rangers.

Brancy is the new blood. Fits perfectly.

 

[Joe Ranger Fan 1960]

Sam loved John, so I loved him too.

 

[blue425]

Amirante was the best. He wasn't the best anthem singer, but he was ours and we loved him.

In fact should the Rangers have a chance to...well...you know...I think Amirante should do the anthem that night. We have the technology.

That said John Brancy is the real deal.

 

[Crease]

Brancy is the right replacement for Amirante. Perfect for MSG. Hope they keep him.

From John A to John B. It's a natural progression

My wife and I ran into him during the 1st intermission on the escalators after getting some food, told him he's killing it and to keep it going

@JohnC Hope you've been doing your exercises

I’ve been preparing for this moment all my life

He is the best. What a voice!! He's the kind of singer that is worthy of that great venue known as MSG.

 

[Jabroni]

He has been outstanding, I actually really look forward to his rendition of the national anthem. It's not overdone, has power, vibrato... really great. And he looks sharp with the suit and just a touch of Rangers with the scarf: elegant.

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

He pumps me the f*** up. Love him.

And Adam Lee Decker is fitting for the Canes' building, the name of which I forget.

He was awful!!

 

[Joe Ranger Fan 1960]

He was awful!!

I'm fairly confident he was the reason the Rangers were destined to win game seven. I mean, enough is enough.

 

[TrueBlue9]

John Amirante game 7, 1994. Can't even hear him sing, best of all time!

I like this Brancy guy though

He was awful and the crowd all yelling RED (rockets red glare) was the dumbest thing ever. I think that's why they lost.

Cornell does that too but at least their team name is Big Red.

They stole it from two teams.

The Capitals fans yell RED.

As do NC State fans. At least they play in the same arena.

wrong thread

Maybe there’s a way they can do it together, kind of like Lauren Hart and Kate Smith in Philadelphia.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

John Brancy is only 33 years old. That blows my mind. Lock him down.

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

Maybe this isn't fair, but this is probably my favorite anthem ever sung.
