Rule Britannia - BBC Symphony Orchestra

[axltrauts]

like a sir

[DarKnightsFall]

its terrible to think the uk might break up if scotland chooses to leave the union, if this happens then istanbul should return to the greeks and rightfully renamed constantinople lol

[TheMostSlyFox]

I like the song, anyone else?

[idol44bgt]

I adore Great Britain and the Union Flag is one of the greatest flags in the world. Greetings from Mongolia...

[truefalse]

@idol44bgt The Union flag and Great Britain will be getting butchered in Autumn 2014 by Scottish Nationalists.

[Leeenin]

@truefalse Rule Britannia!!. Alex Salmond you're fucked :)

[truefalse]

@Leeenin Alex Salmond is currently winning, the retarded fake nation of the "UK" is going down, in history as a failed state.

[trumpetplayer444]

@truefalse Lol, right, the failed state that was at one time the largest empire in human history, an empire that ruled approximately one-quarter of the world's land and dominated its seas.

[truefalse]

@trumpetplayer444 I live in the UK/Britain, it's not a failed state, but a fake state, it's a country of countries pretending to be another country. Scotland, England & Wales should be three separate countries, not one. There is also no such thing as British, your either English, Welsh or Scottish, nor British.

[trumpetplayer444]

@truefalse You didn't catch the sarcasm because you didn't read the comment I was responding to. ;D

[dylanthecanuck]

@trumpetplayer444 Just because it is not the most powerful country in the world anymore doesn't mean it failed. It still (rightfully) holds a seat on the UN security council and it has the 6th largest economy in the world. Every country (including the US) goes through ups and downs.

[trumpetplayer444]

I am an American (not Caucasian or Anglo-Saxon however) but I am proud to have been a product of the Empire.  I salute to Her Majesty and her great empire.

[SantaFe19484]

I am American, and the United States is without question my favorite country, and favorite foreign countries are Great Britain and Canada; America's two best friends!

[TheRantingCynic]

@unfukkkmee As somebody has already says, I think considering Greece's current economic climate, these 'monuments' as you call them are safer with us. Pride doesn't give you an excuse to drag other things down with you.

Scotland is already planning a referendum in 2014, so we'll see how that goes then; Wales doesn't want independence; the people of the Falkland Islands want to remain British, as do the people of Gibraltar; Cornwall doesn't have a viable claim for independence.

[TheRantingCynic]

@unfukkkmee And the ISLE of Mann is a Crown Dependency, and is content to remain so. So yes, try researching these things before you spout nonsense. Good day.

[unfukkkmee]

THE BRITAIN MUST TO REURN ALL THE GREEK MONUMENTS BACK IN GREECE.

[Tornado15555]

@unfukkkmee Isnt everything Greek to you? You think my brain is greek mate? Fact zee factz that everything is different, and unless you can unite people under the Greek flag willingly and under SANE purpose, I'm afraid you are just blowing black smoke!

[Fartsurmonde]

@unfukkkmee -Don't you think they are safer in the UK considering all the upheaval in your country (when as there not been upheaval!)

[unfukkkmee]

@Fartsurmonde STOP THE PROPAGANDA AGAINST THE GREEK PEOPLE

[Fartsurmonde]

@unfukkkmee -Why?- have you lost your Marbles?

[unfukkkmee]

@Fartsurmonde THE BRITONS HAD STEAL THE GREEK MONUMENTS

[Fartsurmonde]

@unfukkkmee -Oh no we just looking after them till you stop rioting

[unfukkkmee]

@Fartsurmonde BRITON ANIMAL ONE DAY YOU WILL PAY

[Fartsurmonde]

@unfukkkmee -No we have already paid for Ireland because they too went in that stupid EU currency :)

[TheRonin666]

Vive Brittania, from Canada ;)

[Tornado15555]

But very effective, eh? (:annex-faice)

[unfukkkmee]

THE BRITONS WAS SLAVES OF ROMANS FOR 400 YEARS.

[VoRlC]

@unfukkkmee no

[unfukkkmee]

@VoRlC SHUT UP

[VoRlC]

@unfukkkmee fuck off

[STPSDARKNESS]

I'm from America, but there's not a day that goes by that I dont wish I was either British or at least have a British Accent!

Britain Rules!

[Tornado15555]

@winstonchurchill95 Snortsnortsnort! :D

[Mickekzon]

Long live the Victroian era, the 1900s europe, when this continent was the master of the world. Austro-Hungarian Empire, German Empire, Russian Empire, United Kingdom forever :)

It looked then, that this continent will be aleays the true center of the world.

[Ultradalek7]

@SuperBravda You are an arrogant little bitch who likes to do nothing but disgrace his own country by trolling about other nations. I will celebrate the day you die in your putrid hole in the ground with your computer.

[SuperBradva]

Britania rules shit !!!

You will always be french slaves !!!

Long live France !!!

Fuck Britain !!!

[unfukkkmee]

@SuperBradva THE BRITON IS CANCER OF EARTH

[Warchild1950]

Nothing like nationalistic pride being displayed with a mighty voice GOD bless our mother country and our Republic.

[ha757224]

Wonderful! Given BHO, the utter failures of American government at every level, I think it is time we simply requested of the Queen that we rejorn Her as Her loyal Subjects.

Without Obama.

No need for traitors. We have on in our President.

[wendepic]

I think really that its wrong that Britain is so wealthy country because they just robbed so many countries and made their people slaves :P If you have any kind of sympathy against those countries you will put thumbs up to this so that everyone can see this really worthy opinion. If you dislike this comment you dont admit the real things.

[Dealortruth]

@wendepic No, I'm disliking this comment because you're a self-righteous git.

[WolfytheWolf5667]

@wendepic

yeah, like uh, we SAVED India. without us, India would be in South Ossetia's position.

[wendepic]

@WolfytheWolf5667 what do you mean about saving?!?! You made there a huge difference between high classes and poor people. Thats why there is slums. You didnt save it. You just made some peoples life more miserable.

[chinonn1]

england shit, bitch Princess Diana's good that he died, he dies Queen Elizabeth Alexandra Mary nasty old bitch, get rich making war on other countries, I'm Mexican, up mexico

[TheJplay22]

[aniusia331]

I live in UK and i love this anthem. Rule Britannia :)

[HomoHElDELBERGensis]

I am a German and I think it`s a great anthem.

[RCProductionable]

@HomoHElDELBERGensis Thanks man!

[UlysseXXI]

@HomoHElDELBERGensis I am Spanish and when we played against you in final of Eurocup and first heard ¨Deutshland über Alles¨ the radio journalist said: when you hear this you think if it would be a better idea to surrender already. And I agreed. German anthem its even better than this song. Lucky us , we won anyway. :)

[HomoHElDELBERGensis]

@UlysseXXI Thank you for your nice comment. You won deserved. But our national anthem isn´t "Deutschland über alles". Thats the first verse of the "Deutschlandlied". The national anthem is the third verse. Some thought that this verse is too nationalist. You know the history of my country so you know why we don´t sing this.

[antred11]

@HomoHElDELBERGensis Me too, on both counts. :-)

[eltopocubicar]

4 people live in former colonies

[rastamanky1]

@eltopocubicar I'm from a former colony and let me say-I appreciate all that the Brits left us with. Great schools, traditions everything. Polls reveal most folks in former colonies believe that their countries would be better off as colonies (Nigeria, Jamaica, India, Zimbabwe, Pakistan all even worse off today than in 1962)

[MiTm4x]

i have dual british/american citizenship so fuck ALL of you. Oohhh say can you seee BRITANNIA!

[TheRitaSkeeter1]

July Fourth facebook post?

[libertyordeath90]

Three Cheers from an American cowboy who is currently in the magnificent city of London!! What a testament to human civilization!!

[BasilFawlty4444]

Is he singing in Welsh after 2:33?

[bennie128]

@BasilFawlty4444 yes, surprised someone noticed :P. The Singer is from Wales which is why he sings a part in Welsh (as well as other languages)

[hejsAu]

Haha, me to :) Japanese version better, they would rock with that anthem!

[holmesbinton]

Cheers from the US! ;-)

[Antralian]

4 Pakis dislikes this video.

[qounqer]

BRITISH PEOPLE USE BREAD FOR TAMPONS CUZ THEY ALLE HAVE LEAK VAJAYS

[bandkjams]

British chicks are ausome..

[sanktmikael]

Even I wish Britannia was still an empire.

I'm finnish. Never even been to Britannia. Still, it's be awesome.

[Homersimaes]

Вобщем, Слава Российской Империи! Боже, храни Царя!

[Blanqueador]

only Brits:

Do you feel proud of the British Empire?

[jakeshortj]

@Blanqueador I think so, obviously after slavery was made illegal.

[RocknRollClown5150]

The Beatles should have covered this.

[NottinghamForest22]

@RocknRollClown5150 as if them hippies would have ever covered this.

[RocknRollClown5150]

@NottinghamForest22 Aren't they just so Great.

[ModellMeister]

Whats the problem with islams? What. 9-11? Well wouldnt YOU do the same thing if some random country butted in and built an Airforce base in one of your most holiest cities? Or is it over immigration to Europe? Because a bit of history shows that the British infested the world and after giving freedom to their colonies left its natives starving and broke. Oh, did the muslims do that to you brits?

[TheGrandImperialist]

@hexagonmoose thats why i dont pay attention to my american history class. My damn teacher thought waterloo was in spain for fucks sakes. I do independent research and can outmatch the teacher easily.

[twobellz]

Why are muslims even associated with this Rule Britannia you tube video?

[DerAnstifter]

@RMSLusitania1 That's why. You're missing my point, but what the hell...

[rytterytter]

the flag is wrong look at the way the diagonal lines meet up with center cross. LOLOLOLOLOLOL BRIT FAGS (germany rules)

[Ross4916]

@rytterytter No cross on the German flag any more so are you jealous Dänischer Junge? Schleswig-Holstein used to be in Dänemark; but what happened? The rest of Dänemark will be swallowed up next. German flag = fat boring stripes. Is it the Belgian flag or the German flag, I forget. Freund.

[danishpride1]

"Stool, Britannia! Britannia, stool you crave; Britons ever shall deprave."

[kaesich0070]

@danishpride1 shut the fuck up

[danishpride1]

@kaesich0070 haha

[thorpeman]

Should be played Prior to the ten o'clock news every night and at 7am across all radio stations to send everyone to work in the right mood

[WoWzersworld]

Brits and Americans arguing is like Italy and Rome getting into a fight.

[DerAnstifter]

@WoWzersworld nope... like Rome and Italy, to be more precise...

[UlysseXXI]

@WoWzersworld hahahahahahhhaha. or a fighing between cousins...yes.hahahaha. greets from Spain.

[Doodledude9001]

@WoWzersworld WHOA BUDDY LET'S NOT GO THERE...ok you have a point XD

[Sewblon]

@WoWzersworld Rome got into several fights with the rest of Italy back when it first established its empire.

[DickCabezaLtd]

@Sewblon You sir, are an idiot. Rome (the empire) ceased to exist for over 1,00 years before Italy (the country) existed.

[Sewblon]

@DickCabezaLtd I am sorry. I should have said that Rome fought against other civilizations that resided on part of the geographic area that Italy would eventually occupy.

[Superprincezzz]

Was this from PROMS some years ago? And the singer was an afro-american or something? I recignize it when I listen to it...

(I'm sorry for my bad English but I hope you understand what I mean)

[Masalaras]

i think ALL HAIL BRITAINNIA is way better, i wish it were my country's anthem... im not even brittish! but i suppose the americas were meant to be the"britainnia" in code geass... heh kinda better than oh canada anyways

[cumbriankase]

UK UK ALL THE WAY GSTQ

[Dyl2k7]

It really does annoy me, America make a 12bn nuclear warship, Britain make 2 ships with the combined net value of 26 million. Get rid of PM's and have the queen ruling, then Britain and America could rule the world. No terrorists or anything

[amerikanerfreund]

I have alot of English and Scottish blood so..

[mkadams99]

Support World Peace. Nuke Israel.

[IrelandForever11]

Rule Erin

Erin Rule teh Waves!

[MoonstompingMike1985]

this anthem should be our national anthem instead of 'god save the queen'

[Musiclover7851]

@MoonstompingMike1985 Islam will be your ruler soon and you will not need to worry which one to choose.

[TheGrandImperialist]

@Musiclover7851 yes until america screws its head on straight and destroys you abominations

[ajjcj]

@MoonstompingMike1985 Ignore Musiclover7851 he is a pathetic little Irish slag muffin. He serves no purpose in this world than to attempt to wind us up because he knows what a pathetic nation Ireland is and how much abuse it took from Britain. It's understandable why they hate us - i would too if my country's women were fucked up their asses, if my people were made slaves and made to suck British cock day and night for a small potato to feed their ugly, freckled children.

Ireland=Slaves of UK!

[ChadWardenTV]

GOD BLESS  ENGLAND!

Greetings From Germany!! :)

[ShadowRSonic]

Stop bringing football into this, you're just annoyed we buttraped you in WWII.

[SeikaiserTV]

[scurgeofthriverdee]

@SeikaiserTV you say england not BRITAIN you WANKER!!!

[Anfield4Ever]

@SeikaiserTV Well done Germany!!! :-)

[motorstvmaster]

@SeikaiserTV I'd like to remind of the two world wars, the one world cup AND the world cup qualifier in which the raped 5:1

[dragongame2]

@SeikaiserTV this song doesnt go about world wars or football, england and french are nothing more in the 20 century they were somthing before but lost their empire

[TheGrandImperialist]

@dragongame2 well if they regrew their sacks the could dominate their empires again. It would involve the blood of millions but it can be done

[dragongame2]

@SeikaiserTV what england this song goes about britain and the writer is a scot

[THOMASBANTON]

@SeikaiserTV Its alright you need to be good at something you fuckin dickhead,get the fuck of this page you german cunt,doesnt this tune shit you up we took your racist fucked up pride and we will take it again again and again and that goes for any1 who fucks with the crown,you got a crown???you got something to be proud of???what you got you got nothing,every fuckin german nee shal bow

[patient0y]

@honk611 He can keep his 4:1 :L You'll be under are control soon Germany i can already see the little Union Jack in the top left hand side of your Flag soon mate ;)

[antred11]

@patient0y Oh, I wouldn't mind that. We can form a joint British-German Commonwealth. Sure would beat the pants off of this stupid EU thing. ;-)

[nigkingoi]

There should be a picture of the British Empire c.1740 when the song was written. More impressive.

[allthings321]

best anthem ever love it in the wolrd cup

[HMSDaring1]

We had the biggest empire, i wish we still had, look at that, gosh, the Americans wouldn't even try challenging us in warfare, they would be sucking up to Britain, but unfortunately we are doing that to the American GOvernment at the moment FUN!

[Ropaire]

@HMSDaring1 What's this "we" business?

[HMSDaring1]

@Ropaire "We" meaning the British, because i write so much, i can't fit long words repeated over and over, so i used Britain once and then just wrote "We", it makes life for me easier and plus, when i used to say Britain, then other people would ask "Which country are you from then?"

[Ropaire]

They say the sun never set on the British Empire. Well it finally did. Good tune though.

[HMSDaring1]

@Ropaire Only because the occupied countries decided to strike when England was at its weakest after WW2, had WW2 not happened not only would 1000,0000's of people be alive, but Britain would still have a massive empire, America was lucky!

[Apachecatdog]

@Ropaire

Actually the sun still always shines on at least one British Overseas Territory even today.

[Ropaire]

@Apachecatdog True but it sets on it too like anywhere else on the planet.

[Apachecatdog]

@Ropaire

No what I'm saying is that of the British Overseas Territories we have left, the sun is always shining on at least one of them, therefore 'the sun never sets on the British Empire'.

[Ropaire]

@Apachecatdog No no! This is not possible.

[Apachecatdog]

@Ropaire

Not only is it possible but it's a fact.

I have the feeling you just don't understand what I'm saying, so look up what British Overseas Territories are and then consult a map to see what I mean.

[Ropaire]

@Apachecatdog No no! It cannot be. The fact that the sun had finally set on the British Empire has sustained me through all sorts of trials and tribulations during my otherwise wretched life. If, as you say, it's not true then I cannot go on. I'll just have to end it all in some kind of appropiate post-colonial manner.

[Apachecatdog]

@Ropaire

Well you'll have to kill yourself or wait until 2016 when the American lease of the British Indian Ocean Territory is up for negotiation, if the lease is not extended then the territory will be ceded to neighbouring countries, and then for a time between the Pitcairn Islands and Saint Helena, the sun will cease to shine on the British Empire.

[Ropaire]

@Apachecatdog Actually for another take on the empire if you hit on my name there it will bring you into my favorites and you can listen to The Captains and the Kings sung by Brendan Behan who also wrote it. Ignore the fact that he appears to be drunk. In all likelihood he was. (He was never sober.) I think it's worth sticking with to the end.

[DrMabuse2006]

Egypt is missing on the map.

[richardmcginty]

History shall see that we boast the largest empire in history! Look at all the wonderful inventions we gave the world, not to mention the industrial revolution itself. Rule Britannia!

[NottinghamForest22]

islam was not a problem when the empire was in their land :)
