Favourite national anthem?

Hate the Yanks but have to hand it to them. Their anthem certainly gets them going.
Ours is like listening to a Leonard Cohen EP.

La Marseillaise is fantastic and the Deutschlandlied is pretty good.
The Star Spangled Banner is a cracking bit of writing too

The Scots sing it with proper PASSION.
It's time to get rid of a whole nation singing about saving one person and get us a decent anthem that unites the country.

The unofficial Italian anthem Va Pensiero, otherwise known as the chorus of the hebrew slaves from Nabucco by Verdi.

Played in it's entirety, ours is recognised as one of the best, as are the French and German anthems.
Guess you need to like classical music and their origins to appreciate them.
