[WUDJABEABLE]

@bussikuski177 and they love themselves because of theur history.

[TheDannyboy55]

hahah these comments crack me the fuck up. If you understand portuguese like myself, you would see the same kind of hatred between Portugal and Brazil. Mother countries and former colonies seem to always have some reason to hate each other. Am i wrong?

[Renegamers]

@thenenaceanish the only reason America won was because the had Spain giving them food and supplies and if we tarted a war on you this year we would probably win anyway, the English army one of the most hard fighting and toughest armies in the world and we have much better equipment because America's equipment and vehicles are all very massed produced using the cheapest materials possible whereas we use high grade metal and other materials for equipment. America's army is bigger but there just

[epicx666]

@REZOWNO UK= USA's pet

[TBirdFirster]

I would like to take this moment to apologize, as an American, for stealing the melody for "My Country, 'Tis of Thee". That being said, "God save the President"!!!!!!!!!!

[111Nikki222]

always quite overpowering to listen to isn't it?

[dario2015]

England colonized several countries like South Africa, Canada, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, Bahamas, Honduras, Newfoundland .. ect ....

The symbol remains clear is that monarchy .. (kings) -..

[littleladytomboy]

So what happens when the queen dies and her son becomes king? do you change the lyrics? I don't mean to insult anyone just asking.

[ThorTGoT]

@littleladytomboy Yeah, change 'queen' to 'king' and her to him ect :)

[nrharrington]

Respect from a colonial

[SUNSET7900]

Long live the queen ! thumbs up if you don't want prince Charles to be king !

[JayyOneill]

@SUNSET7900 Its Very Unlikely For Charles Too Become King, Tbh Its More Likely Prince William Would Become King! And I Find It Really Strange To Think About Him Being King LOL I Mean Ive Danced In A Club 5 Feet From Him Before, He's To Normal LOL Would Be Interesting Tho To See Wither He'd Turn Into What The Snobs Want Or Stay Being Him And Carry On His Mothers Message :D

[BrennanDora]

How dare you people insult others about their home countries and what gives you the right to call them names???? seriously disgusting. you should be ashamed....

[Bac8ardi]

Shave the Queen ???

RESPONDED A MI COMENTARIO, ODIO HABLAR EN UN IDIOMA PATETICO.

[TheChickeneddies]

Damn I love having two brilliant national anthems. 'God save the Queen' and 'Hen wlad fy nhadau' !!!

[themenaceanish]

UK = little bitch of America

[ImAMentalPatient]

@themenaceanish If anything America is Britains bitch as America basically origionated from Britain as from when we colonised it.

Britain also has the best poltical system/Judiciary, being the house of commons, the house of lords and the royal assent (The Queen)

Why search the british national anthem and then troll.

[themenaceanish]

The so called self proclaimed 'native' Brits are the most xenophobic people in the world by the looks of it. But I can see why they're somewhat angry though considering how shitty their country is and how it's become entirely owned by foreigners looooool!

[ImAMentalPatient]

@themenaceanish Britain is not owned by forigners, only around 11-18% of Britain are foreigners.

Don't post things which you don't understand yourself.

[Sexy11Princess]

God Fucking kill the queen more like the fucking orange bastards

[MsLankyman]

well she not really tha poorly so y save her she perfectly fit and well

[TheDUDEDOOOD]

@ThejoshcaldeR

I believe the song your thinking of is "My Country, 'Tis of Thee", which is not our national anthem. "The Star Spangled Banner" was written by Francis Scott Key, an American lawyer, while the British were bombarding Fort McHenry, which is on American Soil. Very American Song.

[Delta5FlyD]

God Save the Queen!

[ThejoshcaldeR]

Now I know where the Americans stole their national anthem from. XP

[valerianschally]

@ThejoshcaldeR They didnt steal it, it was composed by Francis Scott Key, an american

[themenaceanish]

UK = little bitch of America

Hey Brits, come send your armies now and see what happens to you. We kicked your asses with a couple of pitchforks all those centuries ago. Come try it again and we'll annihalate you XD

God Bless America, land of the free and home of the brave!

[angelsandafterlives]

@themenaceanish Wow you are a douche bag. Did you come on here just to start a fight?

[optimatus]

@themenaceanish Why do you still speak English? If you hate England, stop speaking English and choose another language.

[RoyalMarineSniper]

@themenaceanish Clearly you know nothing about history or about the UK

[ImAMentalPatient]

@themenaceanish Your country origionated from Britain so as you are trolling Britain, you are trolling yourself.

Another dumb fucking american.

[easy77146]

@themenaceanish fuck you we only lost because we had to send are men across the alantic wich took 3 months for any reinforcements you also had fracnce and spain giveing you weapons food and men to fight with, it was almost inposible for us to win 3 vs 1 and even then you still lost more men then us.

[easy77146]

@themenaceanish after that war we ruled the world for hundereds of years being the number 1 power the us will only be the number 1 power for 50 years at max after winning the cold war in the 90s after your very short time on top you will be the bitch of asia.

[REZOWNO]

@themenaceanish UK = USA's mother and just so you know the UK invented the TV, the internet, the light bulb (Edison took the credit), the language you are currently speaking etc. imagine your life without such things us Brits have provided

[IRememberTheOldDays]

@REZOWNO actually, CERN in Switzerland invented the internet (with assistance form individuals the world over) so no, we cant take credit where it isnt due Im afraid.

[REZOWNO]

@IRememberTheOldDays CERN was the place where "Tim Berners-Lee" worked and invented the World Wide Web, and Tim was born in britain

[DracoGreenburg]

American National Anthem America, FUCK YEAH! Coming again, to save the mother fucking day yeah, America, FUCK YEAH! Freedom is the only way yeah, Terrorist your game is through cause now you have to answer too, America, FUCK YEAH! So lick my butt, and suck on my balls, America, FUCK YEAH! What you going to do when we come for you now, it’s the dream that we all share; it’s the hope for tomorrow FUCK YEAH!

[sierra087]

@DracoGreenburg -- That song is more appropriate is a battle-song, IMHO. :P Though some of the other verses can be used as a national anthem.

[DracoGreenburg]

@sierra087 It was just a joke anyways and i didnt make it up southpark did.

[jsf926]

@DracoGreenburg Sounds like a Bush supporter from Texas. Another reason I'll never vote Republican.

[Grenadier1866]

GOD SHAVE THE QUEEN :D :D :D

[huzayfahLOL]

LOL i love this anthem

[Rfshdohxi]

fu.cking british fu.cking song

[michkay1]

I'm from America and I love this. I love the words and the music. So beautiful. God bless Britain and the USA!

[jman22009]

@MrMaor100 That is offensive, so have you know I'm 1/4 British and 1/4 German. I'm proud of my British heritage and if you don't like us your a fucking racist. And by the way, us Brits are not gay. Bloody wanker

[ZarosTemplar]

@Thallod Go fuck yourself with a cactus you stupid American prick.

[olddrunkbastard]

I don't know why I'm American & I find an undying sense of loyalty to the queen and whenever I hear this song I find myself putting my hand to my chest and saying it out loud. Its such a beautiful national anthem.

[JohnMacDonald1]

The most beautiful and gracious country on the planet. God save the Queen.

[Thallod]

God Bless America!

[SlyFox70100]

@Thallod fuck america! USA sucks Canada's long floppy dick

[youngfeniansofeire]

the real bitch is thatcher

[benjie164]

I am a very patriotic man and i love Britain, but i will admit we make some bad choices

[POTATOESLOL]

God save the queen!

Love, USA

[presidentofawesome3]

@garthy55 I'm not sure you know your history mate Russia didn't train the Americans they were out of the war by then because of the rise in communism. Our troops were exhausted and the Americans brought a freshness to the entante. ww1 would have been a lost cause if not for them. Also we begged them to come in 1914 but they denied because it was a European conflict they joined cause we were losing.

[midas2099]

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!

From Korea

[stecaulfield]

British cunts..

[slovenlyfrogbasher]

@stecaulfield Is paddy upset because he had to borrow some sterling to pay the gas bill?

[DungivenBoy]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaawn. Oh I'm sorry, but all the needless comments are turning this lively and passionate tune into a lulaby.

[Mee551able]

I know the Queen but who that God guy? Iv never seen him have you?

[benjaminhs]

NO FUTURE! NO FUTURE! NO FUTURE FOR YOU!

[geeg84]

@benjaminhs Chile? What's that famous for? A few retards getting trapped in mine.. Don't give a damn about you

[turner2123]

[britainisbetathanyou]

@turner2123 you sir can get fucked u little paki virgin

[turner2123]

@britainisbetathanyou paki, im not going to fuck your sister

[BasilFawlty4444]

@turner2123 We MADE this world.

[turner2123]

@BasilFawlty4444 Now you fucked this world

ps: made? its why the british does always the oposite of the rest, its why that island is different then the rest of the world

[MrMaor100]

fucking british gays

[geeg84]

@MrMaor100 Fuck u commie sissies, too scared of being independent, you still have mommy and daddy wipe your ass

[MrMaor100]

@geeg84

im not a comie i hate comunism

and i hate antisemitics like the british

[BasilFawlty4444]

@MrMaor100 The British aren't antisemitic.

Where did you get that idea from?

[MrMaor100]

@BasilFawlty4444

they always support the palestinians that killed isreali civilians children and women every day

[jleer1]

@MrMaor100 The British are not antisemitic. Thousends of Jews were rescued from Nazi Germany, and Britain gave them a home and helped them. There are large Jewish communities accross the U.K., especially in the East End of London. I'm British, and we are not communists of antisemitic. Every race and religion lives in the U.K., and only a small minority are racist. Yes of course there are a few, but the majority are not.

[slovenlyfrogbasher]

@MrMaor100 Could be worse mate, could be irish and not have a pot to piss in, you can pay that loan back any time btw.

[schaferhund11]

I feel so sorry for your PM. He tried to get Sarkozy's attention and he just ignored him. He looked so alone that when he gulped his water, I bet he wished it was gin.

[BasilFawlty4444]

@schaferhund11 But we didn't let the Europeans clamp down on our financial industry.

That's a victory in itself.

[schaferhund11]

@BasilFawlty4444 Well, the other countries seem to be really made at his decision. Some others don't agree in your own country. I'm going to watch Prime Minister's Questions and see how the opposition reacts.

[BasilFawlty4444]

@schaferhund11 A lot of the politicians over here were really mad too. Nick Clegg, the Deputy PM, was furious.

Labour will obviously be very upset - they are by nature very supportive of the EU. I support Labour, but if I were in Cameron's position, I don't think I'd have signed either. The line has to be drawn somewhere.

Cameron's decision could either isolate us or turn out well for our finance industry. Let's wait and see.

[schaferhund11]

@BasilFawlty4444 Why does Clegg sit by Cameron. They are of different parties. Do they run the country together?

[BasilFawlty4444]

@schaferhund11 Currently we have a coalition of Liberal Democrats and Conservatives - very precarious indeed!

This is rare with First-Past-the-Post, which almost always returns a majority for one given party. The last time there was a hung parliament was back in 1977. That time, the Lib Dems allied with Labour - the media called it "Lib-Lab." This time it has been dubbed the "Con-Dem" coalition.

[schaferhund11]

@BasilFawlty4444 Oh I see, they run together and the other party has some say to what's going on. I've never heard of this before. Maybe it's like congress here where there are 2 parties. Thanks for the info.

[weehooper]

@youngfeniansofeire fuck u I hope you die you fucking taigy bastard FTP

[francophilebreton]

burrrrk!

[Ticketproductionz]

How did the new formed united states lose their British accent after the revolution was over

[madamcoco4]

I could care less about politics, so I'll say nothing regarding the subject. All I know is what I think, and what I think is this: I wish I had an awesome British accent and that I could someday visit, or better yet, live, in London! Your anthem is beautiful, as well as your country and people. :) British humor is the best, and I want to hug Richard Hammond.

Salutations from "Across the Pond." (America.) :)

[Erlmyh28]

I hope you all know that this anthem was made by the FRENCH back when England was under french rule,but it had a different lyric originally.

"Everything that is courteous ,honorable and elegant in the english culture comes from the french invasion" Walter Scott

[HowDoYouWin99]

@Erlmyh28 England wasn't ruled by the French in the 1600s.

[HowDoYouWin99]

@Erlmyh28 And it also had a different tune.

[Makashi11]

@Erlmyh28 That's bollocks my friend.

[Erlmyh28]

In 1066 William the conqueror lord of France/duke of Normandy conquiers England.This huge french influence from 1066 french language was the official language in England for 300 years.Even today about 35% of english vocabulary comes from french language.God save the queen was the french anthem from 1686 composed by Lully to celebrate Louis XIV.It was a french anthem until 1792 when Handel plagiarised the tune in 1740 in Versailles and became british.I thought that was common knowlege.

[slovenlyfrogbasher]

@Erlmyh28 Still, look on the brightside, despite having that obvius disability of french influence it didn't stop the sons of dear old blighty handing out a proper kicking to the heathen cheese eating surrender monkeys and boxheads when/as required. May you only look upon this dear & blessed land and thank god almighty you don't speak German as your defacto language thanks to British lads being made of tougher stuff than our pansy neighbours. Rule Brittania, and god save her majesty!

[Makashi11]

@Makashi11 I was referring to the notion that all good things in English culture are of French origin. You are right in saying that England has a strong French influence, due mostly to the William of Normandy's Invasion. But England is after all a mesh of many cultures, the French only one of them. Above all else the Germanic element is strong in our culture, from the days of Viking Invasions and before that the Celts, also of course the Romans. France biggest influence = disingenuous

[rimfa123]

@Erlmyh28 You say it like you think you are being contraversial. I'm British and I know alot of British culture/heritage is French based. So what? France is a country with a rich heritage and culture, French culture was fused with older British culture and it made an excellant combination. Just like German etc. did. If you a Frenchman trying to show off I suggest you rethink your stratagy. I suggest you look at the last 150 years and realise the French have had to step down somewhat.

[BasilFawlty4444]

@Erlmyh28 Actually the anthem originates from the time of the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion in Scotland. The original lyrics were:

Lord, grant that Marshal Wade,

May by thy mighty aid,

Victory bring.

May he sedition hush,

and like a torrent rush,

Rebellious Scots to crush,

God save the King.

[Frodojo111]

@Erlmyh28

Really? What's the history behind it?

[holly12uk]

@jogwolf god save the queen or god save the king, sorry :)

[holly12uk]

@jogwolf we change the anthem to god save the queen or god save the queen depending on who is reigning we do not change it all together is so our anthem would have been changing all the time. Durimg ww1 it was god save the king, now of course, it is god save the queen. When Prince charles becomes king it will change to god save the king and so on :)

[LamentedGrief]

Will those of you who are bent on demoralising a great nation just quiet down? Britain is a thriving country that we owe our forms of communication and language to. Without them, the world would probably be scattered — no trading, no visiting of other countries, the economies would just fall. Sure, there's Chinese but what would we fall back on if the other person does not converse in Chinese? English. Just appreciate the beauty of this anthem.

[jogwolf]

I wonder if tomoro it's a king will they change the anthem?

[Suitsunova]

Reading a Few Comments By People You need to Grow up. I'm British and Yet I like the Russian anthem? Problem all you "UK Only Exist because of America" Have you ever thought Where as some countries call it "American" Language Came From? Ye Old Britain. Now Let Us English Drink Tea with the Welsh, Scottish and Irish whilst having a great anthem alone?

[typicalviewer2]

Now that's a flag. Our american flag just doesn't look as cool.

[NJatTheDisco]

My country tis of the sweet land of liberty...........

[BasilFawlty4444]

@NJatTheDisco The essential concept of personal liberty and rights originated in England in the 1200s - concepts outlined in the Magna Carta and Habeus Corpus.

The actual US Declaration of Independence was also based almost entirely on the work of the English philosopher John Locke, who argued for "life, health, liberty and possessions" - which the founding fathers changed to "Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."

So it seems that Britain tis the sweet land of liberty.

[Randomowe]

@garthy55

Explain me how? Do you even know where am i from?

[youngfeniansofeire]

fuck the queen i hope  she fucking dies

[tkhockeyman100]

@youngfeniansofeire I will allow you this opinion should you be from a country that doesn't owe its existence to the British royal family. And if you live in the west or out of the west for that matter, that's highly unlikely. Have fun burning you cancer.

[ieshghi]

@youngfeniansofeire God save the queen, She ain't no human being, There is no future, In England's dreaming

The Sex Pistols, God Save The Queen

[outloudproductions11]

God Save the Queen

Three Cheers For HM Queen Elizabeth II 

[diegosandvrs]

God shave the queen!

No future

No future

For you!!

[Hooah777]

Maybe a stupid question, but will they change it to "king" when Charles takes over?

[cody6890]

@Hooah777 yeah

[ieshghi]

@Hooah777 That's actually the original version

[jleer1]

@Hooah777 Yes, they change it according to if the current monarch is male or female. They will change it when Charles becomes the king, but as Elizabeth II is female, it's "God Save the Queen".

[earthwormjj]

@VioletDay3820 no lol

[earthwormjj]

*non-political/ racist comment*

@themenaceanish no we were doing fine britain russia italy and japan yes the french were ruined but we were on the offensive and doing well towards 1917 america joined in the mid 1917 in which the war was well and truly in our favour and over for germany...
