Rachel Platten breaks silence after controversial national anthem ahead of Vikings-Rams game left NFL fans split Singer Rachel Platten has broken her silence after her performances ahead of the Los Angeles' playoff matchup against the Minnesota Vikings drew backlash.
After seven days of turmoil and tragedy, Platten performed her 2015 hit, 'Fight Song,' as a form of rallying call to the Los Angelenos before the playoff matchup.
The Rams earned an emotional Wild Card victory following a devastating week in Los Angeles, where thousands of homes have been destroyed and 24 lives lost amid the ongoing wildfires.
However, Platten had changed a lyric in the first verse - 'I might only have one match/ But I can make an explosion' - to a more appropriate choice given the circumstances: 'We might have been knocked down/ But I know we'll keep going.
The singer has spoken out on her rendition of her hit 'Fight Song' and the national anthem.
