God save the Queen...............should it still be our national anthem

At least it is very short.

Have heard 'You'll never walk alone' (spits) mentioned by some bellends.

With this government it would have to be 'You always walk alone'

Watching the teams get involved in their respective anthems last night is any wonder why ours never get that buzz, lets change it one way or the other

GSTQ is three verses so its not that short and no one knows the third verse anyway.

Like being back in Big banana disco in Magaluf with sweaty birds and my best mates.

Seconds in the sand hills

No one knows the second!

But the version we have at matches and that is short. Which unless you have an anthem like the Welsh, Italians, or French, has to be a good thing.

Is it really a Christian hymn?

I know they use it in church and IMO would make a splendid anthem but as I understand it, Blake meant it as a satire on the conditions the working poor found themselves living in.......the dark satanic mills reflecting the reality of life for most in England's green and pleasant land.

But certainly a stirring tune.

Based on an apophrycal story that Jesus had once visited England with Joseph of Arimethea, used to put in the poem an idea that if it had happened ( without actually stating that it had) it would have been a sort of blessing/good thing a sort of brief heaven on earth moment in contrast to the dark satanic mills. = Mixture of remembering story from my late mum and wiki.

The National Anthem as the national anthem

Ouch! Don't think they actually stayed though! Better not mention the Holy Family being refugees then!

Don't know about the third verse, but watching the England players mumble through the national anthem is dead funny.

Couldn't agree more, its as though they've been offered a plate full of cold porridge with raw kale, other teams, in particularly French, Welsh Icelandic and Portuguese all sang out loud proud to be representing their respective nations while ours appeared to not give one and it reflected in those performances
