It is a pretty song, but most of us can't hit those high notes. I think we need a better song.
The National Anthem (The Star Spangled Banner) should follow the Pledge of Allegiance. If it does not, then no musical score/hymn should follow.
No, because usually the song has it's own name which doesn't contain the words "national anthem". For example, 'The children sang the American national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner", so beautifully at this wonderful international event.' However, '"National Anthem" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey for her second studio album, Born to Die (2012).' - from Wikipedia
Mostly, they like "America, The Beautiful" or "God Bless America" better. The SSB is very difficult to sing, too. Some ultra-libs who believe the world would love us if we would play nicely think we shouldn't be singing about defending our country with real guns.
The Pledge of Allegiance of the United States is an oath of loyalty to the national flag and the republic of the United States of America, originally composed by Francis Bellamy in 1892. "The Star-Spangled Banner" is the national anthem of the United States of America. This song was written as a poem by 1814. It tooks some years to come for the music but it is older than the Pledge.
It was written to celebrate the victory of US forces over the British- there were were two conflicts with Britain over who should govern the USA, the first between 1775 - 83 and the second between 1812 - 15. The anthem was written to commemorate the second, and final, victory. Britain continued to hold Governorship over a few States after Independence, including Virginia, but these were gradually ceded to the US by peaceful mutually agreed treaty throughout the rest of the 19th Century as US - British relationships stabilised and became more co-operative following the war.

"""The Man in the Mirror"" is a wonderful poem that Winston Churchill wrote that every American should know. If song lyrics count as poems, then the Star-Spangled Banner should also definitely be known."
And where is that band who so vauntingly sworeThat the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,A home and a country should leave us no more!Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.No refuge could save the hireling and slaveFrom the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
