This is the first track off the soundtrack for The Young Victoria, which gave me tingles when I first heard it in the movie. I added another version on of 'Zadok the Priest' to the end of the song because the original track ended at the first verse. The sound is a little different but it was the only one I could find that I felt really matched. If you want to listen to another awesome version, check out carosaxone's from the Festival International d'Opéra Baroque. Awesome!

Enjoy the video! :D

  • Actually, the verse always says "God save the King" whether a king or queen is being crowned. "Zadok the Priest" by Handel is a reference to the anointing of King Solomon in the Old Testament. Handel takes the words directly from the King James Bible and because of this, they never change or are altered.

  • Really? Thanks for the info! I guess I just assumed that it was something like "God Save the Queen" but I guess I was wrong. I'll go change the description now then. Thanks! ^.^

  • The beginning of the movie is honestly my favorite part, so beautiful and powerful! Queen Victoria is truly amazing!

  • @61mrmusicman wellt he movie, although basd on alot of factual accounts, was heavily dramatised too

  • I too loved the movie so much. Over the years,68, I have seldom seen a movie more than twice. I saw "The Young Victoria" 23 times at the movie theater. It is the most beautiful love story.. (I paid for each performance)

  • @Ennio444 King or Queen regardless.

  • Nice segue to the original Handel.

  • beautiful job...and I certainly loved the movie, the coronation scene brought me back to my teen years when I was at the college choir, and thhis was the very first piece we ever rehearsed, my welcoming to the classics! Love live the King!

  • They always use this song when it comes to crown a king after the Middle Ages.

    Anyway, great song, great score and good film! Thanks for the final missing part!

  • The basic purpose of the movie was to show that Queen Victoria was not all that "Victorian."

  • Queen Victoria is the Grand Mother to all Royal Heads and Peerage of our time
