Your favourite national anthem

[york away to this!]

Sorry. Lichtenstein, not Lithuania.
Lichtenstein is where it's at for anthems...

Russia best
US and UK worst

The Netherlands. Quiet summer for me this year.

Legoland's 'Everything is Awesome' is quite catchy.*

One thing I don't get is fans booing the opposition's national anthem before kick off. Not only do you make yourself look like a tit but you may as well be giving the opposing team a pep-talk.

I remember a rugby club from Norn Iron played at Thomond Park, one time and - whilst the rest of his team mates behaved impeccably, it should be said - one particular gobshite of a winger decided to launch into a series of sprints and stretches during the playing of the Irish National Anthem. His coach should have taken him off, there and then, I remember thinking - and I was right. He was carted off about five minutes in.

My favourite is the Czech national anthem 'Kde domov můj?'.

Where is my home? (I'm guessing)

I think Spain have the right idea by having an anthem with no words. It means their players don't look like goldfish pretending know the words unlike England.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau; that was magnificent!

Kazakhstan: very nice place

 

[EalingBlue2]

Mae hen wlad fy nhadau; that was magnificent!

It's my favourite but I'm biased, have to say when sung at the millennium by 75000 it's spine tingling , failing that France's is superb -

The worst has to be the Australian one with NZ close behind , need to cancel and start again there.
