Best national anthem

[savo]

The Irish Rugby team has 2 National Anthems.

Most people over here dont know all the words to the Irish anthem in Gaelic I hate to say it but I dont know it.

I do, and I'd say most of my mates do too.

Leighton, i'm guessing you're from the east?

our anthem is the only one that's about a person rather than a country. if people are anti-royal, they aren't going to sing it. this doesn't mean they're not patriotic.

Wilhelmus?!

I like the Irish anthem, when the team all turn and face the flag. Always catches the cameramen out does that.

I also like the Russian one, the Italian one and the Brazil one. I'm ashamed to say I like the French too.

This thread was done a couple of weeks back....

regardless of qualifications and reults etc I still have the Marseillaise and Hen Wlad Fyn Nadau (Land of my Fathers) as the outstanding 'hairs on the neck' songs

Can't do links but check em out

A national anthem should be about the country it represents. Not some woman who lives in a castle.

I'd much rather we had Land of Hope and Glory.
