This Could Be Rotterdam Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Land of hope and glory and Jerusalem on last night of the proms. Give me goose bumps everytime. Either of those would be hands down a better national anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, though really more or less any piece of music ever made would be a better anthem than the one we use. Jerusalem would be a better option for me, politically speaking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume there was a big fight over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerusalem would be a better option for me, politically speaking. Jerusalem always struck me as a slightly odd choice for an anthem. It's point is basically England used to be fantastic and now it's shit. It's a fantastic poem and works usually well as a song (allowing for Blake's God thing) but... I don't think an anthem should be declaring things have gone to shit. ...I mean it's accurate but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is basically that the current anthem is in a bracket of shitness that it shares only with The Blobby Song and the Crazy Frog ringtone, so more or less anything else would be better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted September 11, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 11, 2017 I've just noticed in the above video that the band are standing on an English flag. Given the Muslim tradition that showing someone the dirty sole of your shoe is a dire insult, I wonder if the awful rendition of GSTQ was part of some subtle pisstake?

I think they will start there and help other shops out I suppose. They even took it (The stock) all home in their cars to dry it all out I presume. The dubbing of the lips on the news cast is using that new software to match the words / mouth. Really impresive technology anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
