Her backing track did not start. After several uncomfortable minutes, she sang it a cappella.
It was billed as a live band. Obviously it was not - it was a recording that failed to start. |

| I thought this was going to say she dropped out. |

| No going to compliment someone who sang for this President, sorry. I'm in the music world and appreciate most last-minute saves. |

| Is that what happened? I liked it and that the audience sang along. |

Respect the office. Singing for the president is a respectful and respectable thing to do. |

What did she sing?
I really hope it was "Before He Cheats" or "Jesus Take The Wheel". |

| Idk why people are shocked. She's always been a republican and even sang at the RNC years ago. |

No one is shocked. Mostly bilious. |

It was beautiful. She was powerful and invited the audience to join her if they wanted. It showed her resilience in the moment. It showed America. 🇺🇸 |

OP. I am too. I wasn’t making a political comment with this post. It was simply noteworthy that in this giant moment, immediately following Trump’s rousing speech, she walked out, stood ready to perform after she and the military band were announced, and then…nothing. Silence. Her face looking expectant, then tense as the beginning of the backing track played for one second, then cut out, and then…she looked resolved. Sort of. She nervously told the crowd, “You know the words, help me out here.” And they did - the whole room, including President Biden, joined her. I thought it was pretty remarkable. |

What about singing for a convicted felon? |

It showed that she wasn’t really going to sing live… |
