They did as a call for help.. the date sept 11 = 911= like the phone # when we call for help.. Would we have gone to the middle east if this did not happen? I gave thought that the New York attack was not against us here in the us. But to think it was and supply an army to fight the one who what to bring Israel down

[seanmahon101]

[aYankee102587]

Yeah, same here.

[marti606]

It's about freedom..Saying what you want to say in the way you feel it should be said..Many wonderful people laid their lives down so we can continue have this wonderful freedom of speech.

[PJohnny76]

The UK sings about being oppressed by an old demonic whore, and the US sings about freedom. I'll take the US version any day, and I'm an Aussie.

[MrCheeser124]

God bless America.

[CrayzeJoyze]

America can sing make up any song and steal ur jingle if we want. As much as the Brits hate us, America is the outcome of Brits turning on their own and kickin some french ass up to canada in the mean time. Basically we are Brits that evolved, and we updated ur precious anthem too. Ur welcome.

[marti606]

let freedom ring

[89murph]

Brits don't hate you, we Brits hate the €uropeans.

[matthew3165]

The American's didn't fight the French dumbass.

[bigmike00831]

@matthew3165 actually they kind of did when they were the colonies it was called the freach indean war and before you say it was not the us greoge Washington did fight in that war so..... idk i have no point lol

[Catholicism777]

Evolved? You mean like George Bush?

Please.

Cant we just all unite under hatred for the French? They are the only people unevolved.

[bigmike00831]

@Catholicism777 they must all died lol jk

[uniden999]

@CrayzeJoyze you are an idiot

[bigmike00831]

@CrayzeJoyze yeah i guess you can say that but remeber some of the colonies were dutch at some point so we were not just britsh people but a mix of different cultures under british law

[shoelase17]

@CrayzeJoyze no your not updated Brits infact 40% of the American population decended from black slaves and sry no you are not the updated Brits you guys dont think like us btw if your countrie is soo evolved why when we went there all you were was tribes and nothing else.

[dazzzdelux]

@CrayzeJoyze more evolved? would a more evolved people elect George Bush? a retard voted for by retards.

your slaves to a country scared of its corrupt leaders. thats why you get robbed by the drug companies, and your health care is a joke to the rest of the developed world. infact your whole country is a joke thanks to morons like you. i feel sorry for the normal Americans who have to live amongst you

[oJKBo]

@dazzzdelux lol didnt you elect tony blair--a retard voted for by retards? let's be honest here....the american lyrics are WAY better than the British lyrics. Song about the beauty of a country and those who built it--vs song about an old hag who never had to do a day of hard work her whole fucking life

[dazzzdelux]

@oJKBo i agree with what you say about the queen. and where did those people who built your country come from?

[oJKBo]

@dazzzdelux they came from england, some were indentured servants, others criminals. And of course some came from africa but the majority of those slaves went to south america and europe. Then the brits that colonized (yes, with a z as the ending comes from the latin "izer" from an older greek root) this land thought it was bullshit that they werent repped in parliament and were bein taxed and shit and were like--we want to be our own country

[dazzzdelux]

@oJKBo and now ironically pay more tax lol

[oJKBo]

@dazzzdelux lol thats wrong. we didnt even have a federal income tax until 1913

[dazzzdelux]

@oJKBo is it 1913 now?

[T3hArTisT]

@CrayzeJoyze lol, "basically" as you call it, you're german. a huuuuuge part of your ancestors are german, and by huge, i mean huge. Thats a thing to be proud of.

[MrXorHomer]

@CrayzeJoyze It doesn't look like your English has evolved much though.

[XenonMan1]

@MrXorHomer

not to poke fun at gov't and stuff of Britain but, when it comes to politics the House of Commons is funny, yet interesting to watch and the House of Lords is a riot for goodness sake.

[ihatethefalc]

You Brits arent that smart. We didnt just randomly pick the tune. It was meant to be a slap in the face to the British. Our version, instead of singing to a king or queen, is sung to Democracy. The last line is God my king or God my *only* king.

[Palkin1000]

Then why did Prussia use a very similar song

{for any one that doesnt know Prussia was one of the countries that founded Germany Look it up if you want}

[AmericanPatriot92]

We are actually a Republic.

[soccerruben1]

@ihatethefalc u know that during the "God save the queen" tune has been famous for 1600's to 1700's its now liechenstein's anthem,norway's royal anthem,switzerland's ex anthem,and usa's ex anthem

[oJKBo]

@soccerruben1 lol it was never the ex anthem of the us. the star spangled banner became the first national anthem of the US in 1931

[soccerruben1]

@oJKBo but are there a anthem during the time of the american revolution?

[oJKBo]

@soccerruben1 there was no congressionally appointed song anthem until 1931. before that people sung various tunes like hail columbia. chester, and hail columbia

[soccerruben1]

@oJKBo oh,now i get the point

[hazo28]

God save our gracious Queen, Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen: Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen. O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall. Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On thee out hopes we fix, God save us all.

[marti606]

Thank you Themanwho11.. Thank you

[themanwho11]

Get a grip OleYanks! I'm just being patriotic!  Like what SO MANY Americans are like....yet we dont tell you to fuck off!

[OleYanks]

Ok So I will look up your anthem on YouTube and put the lyrics to My Country Tis Of Thee. I just think it's disrespectful...

[themanwho11]

How is it disrespectful?

[OleYanks]

Because it's an American song, not the British anthem, just because it has the same tune. Simple.

[themanwho11]

So? I'm not being disrespectful to the american version of the song! There's more countries than just Great Britain and america that use the same song! And I can put the British anthem up here whether you fucking like it or not!

Like you say "who gives a fucking shit!"

[OleYanks]

Tell me is this a British song? NO!

[themanwho11]

Did I say it was a British song? NO!

[thuggie1]

shut up the music is God save the King\Queen it was published on the 15 October 1745

[bigmike00831]

@thuggie1 it was actlly meant to be adaptation of a German adaptation of the brit song at they time the writer did not know it was britsh and plus the music it self was ripped off by Symphony No. 3

[IamLisaYo]

@thuggie1 1745 SO GET THE FUCK OVER IT.

[IamLisaYo]

@thuggie1 Oh and just so you know. The WORDS were published than. NOT the music. Lmao.

[thuggie1]

@IamLisaYo who gives a flying fuck you Irish speaking potato wog

[IamLisaYo]

@thuggie1 Irish speaking? So you mean English. Same as you? Lmao.

[thuggie1]

@IamLisaYo ho your wit is so sharp i cut myself fuck tard

[thuggie1]

it was written to calibrate the crushing of the Jacobite uprising of the same year

[themanwho11]

God save our gracious Queen, Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen: Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us: God save the Queen. O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall. Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On thee out hopes we fix, God save us all.

[OleYanks]

the queen has nothing to do with america! quite putting your fucking anthem on here nobody fucking cares! this is an american song with your tune! who fucking gives a shit!!

[ailsakitty]

Well maybe thats there way of showing loyalty to there country i bet you would to the same fucking thing to

[themanwho11]

Thy choicest gifts in store,

On her be pleased to pour;

Long may she reign:

May she defend our laws,

And ever give us cause

Too sing with heart and voice

God save the Queen.

[marti606]

It is what it is... That's what Tis means

[yourgaysnarfsnarf]

wtf is this shit??!!

[marti606]

1. Samuel Francis Smith wrote the words for "America" in 1832. He was translating some songs from German into English for an organist friend, Lowell Mason. One of the songs, a German patriotic song called "God Bless Our Native Land," caught Smith's interest. He liked the melody, and he thought that the United States needed a patriotic song like that, so he wrote the words to the song we know as "America."
