Help me win this contest. Part of the judging is popularity on youtube so please click on the video link and pass it on to friends.

I know I am being a super cheese in this video. But I had to act like a spaz cause thats what you have to do to stand out. LOL.

If I win I get to sing the national anthem at the natural history museum and for an Orioles game.

YouTube - Nick Conrad sings The National Anthem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StrnzISsylI)


Thanks! :)

To stand there and belt out what is really an awkward tune to sing takes one hell of a set of balls, particularly if unaccompanied. Good for you, Nick. Best of luck with the contest.

Hah well done Yo.

I have to say though that there are better national anthems, I think the French one is maybe the best track.

If you look at the feature for "sites linking this video", oddly enough the army does not show up. You might wish to look into it, Nick. ;)

Not sure who I would contact about that. Would that be Sarge? :)

I was thinking of Youtube. Beware, there customer affairs department is largely indifferent to user needs. :(

This should be the answer.

Hey barblee,

The Statistics & Data section is dynamic, but also takes a while to
update and reflect on our site. Seems like the video that's been added
about a week ago doesn't reflect this data yet. However, the video
that's about three weeks old does show a particular site that's
linking to it.


Hope this helps,
YouTube Anna

OK so I definitely need to check the button for "Enable delayed cookies" right? I dont want to do anything that is going to piss off youtube or make them think I am trying to cheat getting free views.
