Do singers have to sing a certain amount of time when singing the "National Anthem"?

I was wondering because you never see one person sing the song without holding notes, or taking long pauses in the song. Or singing the song under 45 seconds. So I was wondering do they have to sing for a certain amount of time while they wait for the planes to cross overhead or no?

Answer #1

just the length that goes along w/ their music

Answer #2

Oh alright thanks

Answer #3

no problem

Answer #4

No a National anthem can be as long or as short as it wants, its just more preferable and common with the pauses and such.

Answer #5

It depends
