Hey guys, just wondering what you think is the best national anthem? Could be a country that doesn't exist anymore, anything goes.
Just to be fair, let's not choose your country's anthem, alright?

I vote for USSR anthem, such a magnificent piece of art. No wonder russian soldiers had so much heart

USSR is pretty nice. I remember hearing it in Rocky IV. Way too long though.

AMURRRRRICA

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Guys, have you ever listened to that live? It's glorious, even if there isn't a lot of russian people in the stands.
It really gives you chills, especially if you heard it for the first time.

If that doesn't inspire some national pride then you really are a hippy.

Watching international football, you hear so many anthems and there are some real belters out there.

But my top 3 in no order would be

England - God save our gracious queen :cry:

France - La Marseillaise is fckin awesome. Allons Enfants de la Patrie, Le jour de gloire est arrive!

Argentina - Dat instrumental. Sounds like a circus theme but is awesome regardless.
