Thanks for posting, Nancy. One lyric correction: It's not "Brittania's sons" but "Brittania's Huns."

The British in WWI referred to the Germans as Huns, so the lyric here contains special derision and scorn.

@bubbadog220 the word huns has also been kept in use due to anglo saxon connections of the english in culture and language..even though to be fair genetically majority of DNA is much older from celtic/pre celtic times . I am a geneticist btw lol

@bubbadog220 lol, I think the editing was for any English who might look in. It was obvious he sang Huns, and rightly so.

@realnetprofits Huns referes to aggresors from the east. Like the english called the germans in the first/second world war for huns.

I dont get whats so ironicall whit british having celtic/germanic ancestry..
