It’s been more than 30 years since the World Cup took place on U.S. soil, and Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney helped kick off the memorable event in front of a crowd of 70,000+.

Dan + Shay shared a video from their performance on Instagram and were met with a flood of comments from fans.

“Perfect vocals!! 🇺🇸❤️💙I sent this to my mom and she said ‘they could probably sing the dictionary and it would sound fabulous!’ 🤣” one fan wrote. Another declared it the “Best Star Spangled Banner ever” and one commenter wrote, “This is in my top five. They did an amazing job singing our country’s song 🙏🇺🇸” Michael Bublé chimed in with “Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️” and country singer Ernest left heart and flag emojis.
