Aretha Franklin sings at Obama's auguration
Why does she sing the British anthem to the colonists? And why do the lyrics start with "I come, three tits on me"?
But it's moving, nonetheless.

Bastardisation
Yup, Americans stole our anthem and bastardised it.
Note; Bastardised is not spelt with a Z (Pronounced "zed", not "zee")
*tantrum over

Bastardize,
like most, is the preferred form in English. It's a popular misconception that the "z" is somehow american.
Partridge says:
"-ize and -ise, verb endings. With very few exceptions, you will be safe if you make every verb, every derivative noun or participal adjective, conform to the -z type, for this suffix comes, whether direct or via Latin or French, from the Greek -izein. To employ -ise is to flout etymology and logic."
So ner.
