People, you're talking about my friend Christina here. For goodness sake, she has one of the best voices I have ever heard. Her range is astounding. Her talent to entertain is amazing.

Here was a young woman singing from her heart. A professional, of course, but singing from her heart. She put her soul into it and tried to sing to her country. Singing, no less, without musical accompaniment.

Singing in front of maybe a hundred million people.

So she missed a line, and quite honestly I didn't catch that flub. My head must have filled it in. I was listening and thinking of what she meant, her version of a patriotic song. One of the most difficult songs that anybody, professional or amateur, can sing.

She missed a line in front of a hundred million people, without musical backup, and one very difficult song. She did just fine.

Now, let me hear from all those of you who have never made a mistake in your specialty under the sharp eyes of many who were sure that you should not have flubbed something so important.
