This should be our national anthem

What about Manchester's version?

Genuine question ... how long has GSTQ actually been the Anthem and what happens when Lizzie eventually passes away ??
Do they just stick King in there instead or was this written especially for her reign, meaning a shiny new one will be required once the next monarch takes the throne ?

When she goes, it goes with her. We will then be able to have God Save our Glorious Blair.

As a patriot who is also an atheist and a republican I detest "God Save the Queen" and never sing it.
I owe my loyalty to this country not some head of state who is there through hereditary privilege.

One of the many reasons I can't stand Roy Hodgson was his insistence that the team sang this song.
Somebody ought to tell the twat that although we don't, unfortunately, live in a republic we do live
in a democracy and not North Korea.

In terms of a replacement "I Vow to Thee" would be a great alternative although the "Birdie Song"
would be better than the current anthem. If I've offended anyone tough; we fought for generations
against hereditary privilege and for free speech. That's one of the things that makes me proud to be
English.

Right on the money, this. Never been able to respect the anthem for these reasons and we should change it to something more inclusive and uplifting.

Did you see those Chilean players and fans the other night ? Their passionate rendition of their anthem was almost the highlight of a great evening,
 
The worst national anthem in the world.

Every other country pisses themselves at us.

They all have a national anthem that is, as it says on the tin, an anthem about their nations.

We have a fucking dirge that is about one old woman and has absolutely fuck all to do with the nation itself.

A total embarrassment.
