My Linh reacts to criticism for singing the National Anthem 'lacking heroism'
The singer shared that she "sings with a message of peacetime, with a spirit of healing and sharing love."
In response to mixed opinions on social media about the way she sang the National Anthem in front of the US President, the female singer shared on her personal page: "The time of war and bombs is over, so I sing the national anthem with a message of peacetime, with the spirit of healing and sharing love."
Many people praised My Linh for singing well, showing off her beautiful voice without an orchestra and singing alone. But many others said that her singing style was slow and "lacking in heroism". "If anyone wants to say anything, that's up to them. That's my choice, peace is always good. I don't sing for the crowd, but sing with all my heart to close the past and look to the future. And when I sing, I miss my father dearly" - the female singer also shared with a friend on her personal page.
