Its just us singing about our only real victory against England...however, I suppose its better than some other self-inflating egotistical anthems...

I really like this one.

So do I, it is nice- its also about peace which I think is quite...mature, in terms of international relations.

However, we don't have an official national anthem- so there are two others that sometimes get played on behalf of the nation.

Highland Cathedral

and the hideous Scotland the Brave

How can I fricken know what passion went into these songs unless I know the stories behind them!

Then I'll make a vote.

Or are these just Sing a longs..................sing, sing and we are cool?

Post lyrics and tell the story behind them.

Which Countries national anthem is OLE? I love that anthem

Mexico's and the Star Spangled Banner

God Save the Queen is arguably the worst ever.

At least make it about our country, not some idiot.

France's would be mine.

-AC

America's Of Course.

I always thought Russia's anthem was cool.

I definitely recognize "Scotland the Brave," and I think you guys should really stick with "Flower of Scotland." Much better than those other two.

Well, it is her country...

National Anthem of Liechtenstein.

Either Spain or Turkey. Spain's tune always reminds me of pirates.

The German one has the nicest melody imo.

Can´t stand the US one, smarmy as hell.
The Italian & France one´s are too chaotic.

The unofficial British one, "Rule Brittania" is up there as well, can´t stand "god save the queen"

I hate "The Star Spangled Banner". It's to the tune of a drinking song, and its about one night of a battle, not America. I'd like "America the Beautiful" to be our national anthem. Good lyrics that are about the American landscape, and an original tune. But because the word "god" is in the song, it will never be the anthem.

Ode To Joy is pretty good, because it was wrote by Beethoven.

I think you mean 'written' by Beethoven. Interesting how you always pick apart other (better) poster's posts, looking for errors, yet you make them too.

Canada Russia Germany and USA are the Coolest ones, I also liked East Germany's, for the Music.

I just listened to India's, and I was quite impressed. If you haven't heard it yet, then go do so. But if you want something spooky, listen to Turkey's or Morocco's.
