The British national anthem, is IMO pants, but of these three more tuneful ones, which do the people of Blondepoker prefer?

France by a country mile. A lovely passionate tune that inspires.
And you can't beat the irony of the French having an anthem that calls for their citizens to pick up arms.

Italy or France, usually blaring out from the Ice cream van/baguette truck as they skidaddle form the scene of any conflict....

Absolutely right that it's pants. A song that is wrong for a whole plethora of reasons. Why can't we have an anthem that is about the country and its people? Land of Hope and Glory still has some 'issues', but it's a far better choice. |

GSTQ is totally naff.
I blame it for the appalling performances of the England football and rugby teams.
Basically, playing that dirge before an international brings the team down a couple of levels before a ball has even been kicked.

Coupla months ago in 'The Times' I think there was a great article about the uniting effect of the Black Nationalist anthem for the Boks rugby world cup winning team. Agree it's a top one.
I love the French anthem, inspiring. I love Flower of Scotland - fae my fatha.
Embarrassingly perhaps, I love the Star Spangled Banner when it isn't Star Mangled

Why does a nation as patriotic as the Americans allow their anthem to be so badly sung before sporting events.
