What's wrong with it? Here's my two cents: There's too much of it and it's pretty much doggrel. Add that to the fact that this lower quality portion is obscuring the music and the fans are annoyed, particularly as it seems like theres really strong brass and percussion this year. There's also the 'if we don't tell you what the show's about, you won't get it' factor. Actually I 'get' Crown, PR, Glassmen, etc just fine because the emotion comes through in the music. As a matter of fact the narration gets in the way of the Cadets doing exactly that. Lastly, the music seems to have no connection to the narration. Add to that the fact that the Cadets staff seemed happy with this, I think, stirred more fan unease. To be fair, the mere fact that they've chopped and changed it seems to indicate that they realise that it doesn't work. I'm a bit worried by Simple Gifts appearing at the start though. Seems a bit cynical. Why not go the whole hog and play the anthem at the end and recite the Pledge too?
