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.





if u like it soooooooooooooo much, ask your contrymen to adopt it.


GSTQ.

But they like Flower of Scotland too much.

Israel's national anthem always brings a tear to my eye, Ha Tikvah by a distance for me.

Star Spangled is actually a very good anthem...if indeed Spangled.

Amhrán na bhFiann
Les Marseilles
Himno Nacional Argentino

Are my top 3!

And althought not a national anthem I love the Barcelona club anthem too. 

El Cant del Barça - for me one of the best songs in football.

Can't beat the rousing rendition of la Marseillaise in Escape to Victory. 



I tried to get this going at an Arsenal game once.  Not quite so rousing to be fair to me.

I have to disagree with you, wader.
It is one of the most important and inspiring performances in my lifetime.
I couldn't listen to it every day but it "paints" far more than a thousand words.

I noticed Kenya's National Anthem the other day was really quite good.
