I was there, back in 2006, and it was impressive. I am italian, and much respect for the US. No hater here in Italy, also full respect to everybody in the military. God bless the USA and Italy.
Spontaneously? This is what we do at soccer games lol.. which is why it makes it the best sport in the world.. what other sport do you hear fans singing or chanting? Only thing that comes close is a "defense" chant in basketball. lame
Hey Danny, that´s absolut my opinion. I hate this "pop" versions of the anthems. They ruin this anthems. The anthems are military marchs and not a itzi-bitzi pop song.
Man this anthem brings me to tears. Having lived in the US for 17 years, it greatly affects me, even tho I am a German citizen. German anthem i also like don't get me wrong, and also the Russian.
and all you do is criticize other countries that are proud and come together like you've never seen and have spirt for soccer even though baseball football(dont get pissed) and basketball is what they really grew up to. and we dont love war do u not remember 9-11 u do what u do for your country.
no actually im right you were critizing and Americans are proud i have no idea what your talking about sense you dont live here and sounds like you've never been here i think my opinion is more accurate.
damn right we are good at war, thanks stevie29878 we take pride in knowing that our military is the best in the world, and i love australia too, just so you know that, ive been there 4 times, great place great people, and when 9/11 happens in sydney or melbourne then australians will truly understand what it means, it wont be an excuse then will it?
wow, I'm just here trolling for chants for College football CD I'm putting together. Gotta admit Soccer fans are passionate.. just like me and my college football! Love it!!
dude i was right near you! look at my video "World Cup 06: US vs. Italy" and you'll see my view of the field. it's pretty much exactly where you're standing except i was above and to the left of that glass thing.
We should seriously have this every sporting event... no pro singers, just the fans and their passion. Though this would probably work better on the internAtional level, with the patriotism and all
wrong man. did you listen to that video? thats 100,000 screaming passionate american soccer fans. the world cup held in america boasted the highest attendance numbers in world cup history. a more accurate statement would be that not many americans watch MLS soccer because it isn't up to par with some of the other leagues around the world. soccer is big in america and it's getting bigger.
I dissagree its not big in the Usa, I love it 2 death i played it since preschool played varsity my sophomre year and won state but it is not big right now people much rather watch soccer and american football or even tennis. Dont get me wrong I think in about 10-15 years it will take the top 1 or 2 spots.
it probably depends on where you live. soccer is the biggest sport kids play around here and i see more soccer jerseys walking around my campus than every sport combined. thats not an exaggeration. like i said, the world cup with the highest attendance numbers was the one in the united states. i don't know how you can argue with that.
this is fucking brilliant. this is how the national anthem should be sung everytime, not some dumb cunt from gay ass American idol who butchers the song. GO USA in Confederations Cup 09 and 2010 world cup!!
@DannyDZG Are you sure this is how it should be "singed"? These fans are awful feel free to take a look at some English fans , or dare I say it , any European fans! Your going to be thrashed at the World Cup ! Face it!
@jshoup that isnt what i meant at all. I meant that these fans are rubbish , infact there not even fans , their tourists. USA have rubbish fans and cant even name the sport right... its called Football , not soccer!
@jshoup Jozy cut up Carragher and his strike deflected feebly off of Robert Green and struck the post [so close!] you were almost spot on. @wallabyjim [prlck] probably was face palming like the rest of his country when USA won the group. AMERICA F YEAH
Some people wonder why the World Cup draws so much attention... This is the reason right there, it is not just a competition of sport teams or clubs, it is about national pride!!
Go USA! I think they did their best, hope to see them again in South Africa!!
I was there at the game as volunteer and fan and all I can say is that this anthem wasn't only sung by americans, nearly everyone in the stadium joined in (except for theses f*** italians).
the fans didnt spontaneously decide to sing the anthem, that is custom in football, its what makes the world cup the greatest sport event in the world along with the rugby world cup, no professional singers for anthems and it gets players so much more fired up for the game when its sung by all the supporters, the super bowl should be takin notes and spot hiring multi platnium recording artists to so over the top rendition of a national anythem instead incourage the supporters to sing the anthem
World Cup 2006 in Germany was the best ever! By the way... Nearby Kaiserslauters are some bis US Army installations . I guess those were americans. The US and Germany are stronng Partners an even friends
I am from Romania,but I must say,I am deeply impressed on the great number of americans that came to Germany and cheared for their team and sang their anthem,though they do not enjoy our beloved european football or how they call it,soccer,bravo to you all
well thats not hard, because there are already 65000 US-Soldiers stationed in Germany, so not all of them have to travell there directly from the US ^^
You have nice national-anthem =) but i never sing to goverment,president i sing anthem for land,people and ideology of my country..But everyone has their own way of singing.
We all DO sing the anthem. We have a different tradition due to what it means to us. The anthem, flag, our government, people, land...it is all one word: freedom. The veterans and their families sing it softly, while the rest of us choke back tears of appreciation for freedom...thus kind of hard to sing loudly and belligerently.
yeah soccer isnt the most popular sport in the usa but if you look at the bright side its growing rapidly and look how many people traveled to germany.
ya i wish it was man. Imagine MLS games being like Premier league games and when the US team plays there is 60,000 fans, not just when we play Mexico. that will be the day.
