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?

Yes I am a Dub. Dont forget the West of Ireland has more Gaelic schools were the kids go off to Connamarra just to speak Irish.

italy have the best anthem sung with real passion..why doesnt the overhyped scouse fecker sing...hopefully crouch and defoe will start v slovenia.

His football is just a little better than his singing. Thankful he keeps quiet.

Fratelli D'Italia, by miles.

Absolutely, Johnny. Best by light years. Love the bit at the end where they have that little race to finish first.

our anthem is the only one that's about a person rather than a country.

Not so. Japan's anthem is pretty much the same as ours - it calls for the Emperor to have a 1000 year reign - the Dutch sing about William of Orange from their War of Independence, the Serbs sing about God as do the South Africans, and Spain's national anthem is distinctly pro-royal.
