Best national anthem?

[Bull]

Flower of Scotland
Irelands Call

Die Stem (not that 'Nkosi ****) sung at a full stadium. Goosebumps.

 

[Karthago]

Australian Fair ! nice one

I'm also a big fan of Flower of Scotland, it's an amazing anthem.

f*** off.

God bless Africa is an amazing anthem.

Here's the entire song in english if anyone ever wonderred what it all meant (*since it's sung in atleast 4 different languages*)



God bless Africa
May her glory be lifted high
Hear our petitions
God bless us, Your children

God we ask You to protect our nation
Intervene and end all conflicts
Protect us, protect our nation
Nation of South Africa, South Africa

Ringing out from our blue heavens,
From our deep seas breaking round,
Over everlasting mountains,
Where the echoing crags resound,

Sounds the call to come together,
And united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom,
In South Africa our land.


I'm assuming most of you knew that last part anyway

Ek sal dit waardeer as jy nie meer met my probeer strui nie, want ek raak moeg vir jou kak opmerkings elke keer.



Bepaal jou by jou eie sake en as jy nie like wat ek se nie hoef jy nie kommentaar daaroor te lewer nie.

It was a conversation(argument) between me and Boggle.

 

[shazbooger]

Keep talkin gobbledigook and you'll just kill the thread. Use your pm's lads and take it offline.

 

[Prestwick]

Yes, I'm watching this thread now with interest.

One more peep out of the pair of you that isn't on the topic of polite conversation about national anthems and not only will I delete the offending post, I'll close the thread as well.

Consider yourselves warned. Prolonged ***** fighting in any language, English, French, Swahili, Afrikaans, Inca, I don't care what it is, it will not be tolerated.

France by a mile

'God Save the Queen' and 'Swing Low' sung by the Twicker's crowd, blimey, its bloody marvelous.

 

[Museite]

'Advance Australia Fair' is amazing when they have a decent backing track and proper singer performing it. Neck hair raising stuff. The quicker England switches to 'Land Of Hope And Glory' the better.

 

[stormmaster1]

flower of Scotland is the best anthem when playing against one particular nation.

ireland's call i'd rate as overall best. what could be a better anthem than standing shouting out your country's name repeatedly at the top of your lungs?

 

[thom]

La marseillaise and irish's called

is that what happens when prince charles becomes king?

i've always wondered this.... do england still sing god save the queen, if a king takes the throne?

 

[Prestwick]

Yes, the word "Queen" just turns into "King".

I'm surprised that they don't teach that in the UK, let alone in any of the Commonwealth nations.

Unless the name is followed each time by the phrase, "... you f***ers".

 

[knuble]

Flower of Scotland for sure

 

[Substitute]

Irelands Call when you think about it is pretty crappy but it's a bloody good national anthem.

God save the Queen really p**sses me off. It's slow uninspiring and I believe it's fully to blame for englands poor performances. Why when every other commonwealth country gets it's own do we get that ile of tosh.

And to be honest I see no need to pray to God to save Charles, if it happens.

As for the best, Le Marseillaise (sic?)
