My top three National Anthems
|
Welsh - Land of My Fathers- an absolute belter that makes the hairs of my neck stand up
French - La Marseillaise - pretty much the same
Jamaica - Land We Love - Practically a hymn
God Save the Queen - Absolutely nowhere, get rid and replace with either Jerusalem, Land of Hope and Glory and my favourite - I Vow to Thee My Country
Yours?

Italian national anthem is good, and i like the Irish one too.
Flower of Scotland is probably my favourite though. got some Scottish heritage.
Agree that God save the queen has no place anymore as i would say >50% of the country dont believe in the "christian god" and roughly half the country dont like the royal family.

I agree on the Jerusalem comment - i like that much more than god save the queen personally
I really like the american national anthem, been fortunate to see it belted out at some american sporting events and once on a 4th of july celebration and it always gets the hairs on the back of my neck going

The American is good, tells a story at least.
I just can't put it on my list, maybe because I just heard it a lot more than I ever wanted to.
Was at the beginning of a whole lot of the sports I watched growing up.

As a young man, I was extremely disappointed when I realized that the theme tune to The Mysterious Cities of Gold cartoon was not in actual fact the Mexican national anthem...
