Best National Anthem?

[Nebuchadnezzar]

Not the best i've heard, but more befuddling than anything. Was there live for this, and it was sang by Jimmy Cliff, England v Jamaica at the shithole in 2006.

Russian national anthem is good

The Italian anthem is quality. Especially because they sing it so passionately.

There is not an anthem on earth to touch this, even the translated words work.

O land of my fathers, so precious to me
Proud mother of minstrels high home of the free
The tales of her heros her annals shall tell
For freedom they fought and they fell

Wales

Wales

Ever my heart is in Wales......

When I hear the USSR one all I see in my head is a big painting of Ivan Drago appearing in the background. Like this:

Have to admit was visiting cardiff some years back and went to watch Wales v Russia when Mark Huges was the Manager. The way the welsh sung that anthem made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and I am not welsh.. Every one of them was belting it out and all were in tune.
