WITH LYRICS!
Coronation Anthem No. 1 by George Frideric Handel
Chapions League Theme Song

Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet
anointed Solomon king.
And all the people rejoic'd, rejoiced and said:
God save the king! Long live the king!
May the king live for ever!
Amen! Amen! Alleluia!

Zadok der Priester und Nathan der seher
erhöh'ten Salomos Thron.
Und alles Volk rings frohlockt, frohlocket und rief:
Gott sei dein Schild, Heil sei mit dir!
Heil dem König auf ewig!
Amen! Amen! Alleluia!

  • it looks like the Champions League Theme

  • @burrico85 I believe it is.

  • Good lord...they're playing it at half time! It drags too much and loses the sense of expectation that Handel intended with this unusually long instrumental introduction....played at the right speed it is sublime.

  • @shababgeg Thou, cultural barbarian!

  • @Gspijkenisse Hes making a point though. It is a wee bit too slow, and it sounds as if a regular recording has been reduced in speed.

  • @LutzDerLurch Which isn't true of course... Why would i do that? If anything, i'd change the tempo to faster.

    Becouse It's archer of Champions League Theme!

  • @burrico85 Yeah, I think Handel jacked it from UEFA! :D

  • @burrico85 The Champions League Theme looks like Zadok the Priest by Handel...

  • @Gspijkenisse That's because the champions league theme is inspired by this :)

  • i disagree this is the best version - it's too frilly and light, the passion is missing. This is Handel not Mozart's Eine Kleine Nacht Musik

  • @burrico85 The UEFA Champions League theme song is an arrangement by Tony Britten of Georg Frideric Handel's "Zadok the Priest" from the Coronation Anthems!

  • @shababgeg Not the forst time I hear it like this, but I completely agree: it would be much better with a faster tempo.

  • @lordhoot1

    No MBE of course, but he is interred in Westminster Abbey. Counts as a big award too ;)
