The french national anthem,is about the revolution,very stirring, all about the people rising up and slitting the throats of the rich... Think some of the posters on here would quite like that.blinkblue said:I don't know many, I like the French one although I don't know what's being said.
Ours is terrible, I don't give a fuck about the Queen. And what if someone doesn't believe in God?

It's about the revolutionary wars, not the revolution - the enemies it refers to are those of the invading Austrian army and German City states.
My mistake, had to try to learn the words in school many years ago, knew there was some throat slitting, and watering the fields with blood in it somewhere.GazC said:garymj said:The french national anthem,is about the revolution,very stirring, all about the people rising up and slitting the throats of the rich...

Regardless, it's an awesome anthem!

The Haka should be banned.

French or Italian anthems - above the British one as well. They're just so 'old Europe'.
