To mark US Independence day, a couple of unconventional but brilliant performances of the American National Anthem:
Marvin Gaye - The Star Spangled Banner
Recorded at the 1983 NBA All Star game, just over a year before his tragic death.
Jimi Hendrix - The Star Spangled Banner
Live at Woodstock 1969 (actually starts about 1 minute in)
This is the only video of this performance currently on YouTube. Presumably they get taken down for copyright reasons, so enjoy it while it's there.
