I Vow To Thee My Country, I am proud of my Country unashamedly, England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, otherwise known as Great Britain. What Briton cannot be proud of all that has been acomplished in this World in the name of Brittania?
@TheRanhyn Don't mean to be pedantic but i'm going to anyway, Northern Ireland isn't part of Great Britain It's part of The United Kingdom. Take a look at the front of your passport.
everytime I hear this song reminds me of the oval test where we lost the Ashes to England, it was playing each morning before the start of play. awesome to hear in that atmosphere. this is the best version I've ever heard, beautifully sang
Imma set this straight right now. We have God Save the Queen as our anthem for a reason. That reason being the queen represents everything that England and the Irish and the Welsh and the Scottish stand for. Which is strong protestant values, and everything that the United Kingdom herself has stood for. Before people get into rash decisions think about why it is there in the first fucking place!
Quote:We have God Save the Queen as our anthem for a reason.
What about those of us that are proud to be English but are both atheists and republicans? I love this song and Jerusalem (despite the religious connotations) but I'll be damned if I'll sing God Save the Queen.
I'm a Communist for not believing in a god? LOL. I have to do what the majority wants? Silly child, that's not democracy, that's theocracy! And for the love of whatever god you have, learn some grammar! Why is country in caps? And more importantly why is the minority not allowed an opinion?
Your idea of democracy sounds very much like my definition of fascism!
you fucking moron go and look what a democracy is, its what the majority want. The minority can a opinion its everyone's right to have one. But to try and out that opinion into practicality without being a majority is not democracy. Go and learn about something before you make a a bigger goof of yourself.
don't and try and call me a fascist as a way to splinter the argument, and PS - im pretty sure no-one says PS
are you aware that my little brother may use this Youtube account, thought not. I seem to have hit a sore spot due to taking the argument off at a tangent due to you being unable to reply on topic. Go and climb back into that Shit hole that you came from, your presence is repulsive.
I always thought Jerusalem would be a perfect anthem but when you hear this, it says and has everything an anthem should have. Let's get rid of God Save The Queen! And use this! (or Jerusalem)
Thanks to all the folks from "the other side' who have responded to my message. I love my country (the U.S.A.) but am descended partly from English ancestors. I bet there are a lot of women today in England named Anne Bowen! Happy Holidays and world peace to us all!
Isn't it strange how every country can be patriotic but as soon as England is it's deemed to be racist. A complete country losing its identity thanks to political correctness.
@AlishmcMalish yeah i agree with you on that its a shame. but jeeze people can over-do the patriotism to the point where you dont even recognise the love of your own country anymore
@djbungo i completelu agree with you. im not against a multicultural society, but when they come over here and start imposing their religions etc on us then complaining when we try to express are religion and other things like Remembrance, they call us racist. Im mainly against Muslims, they always seem to be the centre of political quarrels over subjects of religion etc. I hate the way they look-its quite scary not cing their faces, and they speek really loudly and its a really piercing noise.
@djbungo why cant we have more africans and jamaicans for example? their much nicer and have a more interesting and pleasant culture than fucking muslims.
if you dont have anything good to say, fuck off. this is a place for us patriots to honor the greatness of our country. no for you to judge and take the mickey on us. Rule Britannia
As one who remembers when Prince Andrew served in 1982; and all the changes which have taken place in the House of Windsor and the world over the past Thirty years, I believe the time Prince William spends in the Falklands will help to make him a better King. A Monarch more understanding of the lives of those he will serve. This was his Mother's favorite hymn; and on this Remembrance Day I believe she would be very proud of both her sons.
I still remember the awful sense of losing something forever and the saddnes that swept my country. Im 58 years old now and i still feel it and feel so grateful to that great man .
@manaorlando15. It's the 'Union Flag', not 'Union Jack'. It only becomes a 'Union Jack' when it is on a ships mast. Like the ships that fucking wiped the floor with you in 1982. Peace out Argie cunt.
i am a patriot to imperial britain not fucked up britain of today i love this song the bit that is missed out shouldnt tbh thumbs up if you share my views
@TheAndrewNorrie1 that was said during world war 1 and directed specifically at general Douglas Haig which was nearly a hundred years ago now. im not sure if thats relevant now
Amazing! There is no rejection of Britishness! I am half British (half not but have lived in Britain more than half my life). Britain is a wonderful place to come from, I am proud! Love it! xx
So is it common knowledge in England that this is taken from Gustav Holst's The Planets? (from the chorale of opus 32, Jupiter...the bringer of Jollity {honesty don't know why the names have to be so fucking long}) I mean Holst was English.. if I'm not mistaken. Just curious how many know the song's origins
@superdan1875 Uhh,i think you'l find "Blood is thicker than water" is a German proverb (originally: Blut ist dicker als Wasser.), which is also common in English speaking countries. It generally means that the bonds of family and common ancestry are stronger than those bonds between unrelated people (such as friendship).
i laughed so hard when i saw the argentinians complain about prince harry being in falklands and a MP said ' whats more provocative is invading the falklands' hahahaha so true
@Teddykinso that is correct. I remember when I was at school in London (1977) my English teacher told me she was annoyed that "foreign" British citizens call themselves British, adding, that if asked, she is English. I told her I totally agree and as a foreigner, commented that she has every right to be proud of such a country.
There is no other country as GREAT as Great Britain !!!
