Romania
Note: I am not Romanian
The lyrics start with something like “Awaken from your graves and kill those barbaric tyrants”.
I get jealous every ANZAC day when they play the New Zealand national anthem. So good.
And they have their Mauri language right there too.
Monaco and Italy both have really good ones
Azerbaijan anthem on lord of the rings.
Mecidiye march on star wars a close second.
Team America. Fuck yeah!
One of the best anthems in one of the best scenes followed by one of the best deadpan jokes In one of the best movies.
The Welsh anthem is wonderful - the Welsh are famed as singers anyway, and it’s a joy hearing them belt it out.
Not Australia’s. Sounds like a fucking dirge. Can we not have something by INXS?
I don’t have a specific favorite national anthem, but I will take this opportunity to recommend the Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra’s renditions of every national anthem (plus a few regional and historical ones), which was one of the main things that started my interest in national anthems. [Youtube] [Invidious]
A few countries have changed their national anthems since it’s release, but it’s mostly up to date.
Unironically, the Soviet Union. I’ve herd that anthem a thousand times as a joke, but you know, it kinda slaps.
Obviously I’m just talking about the arrangement and music because I’ve no idea what the lyrics mean.
I’m sure the lyrics are sane and not at all unhinged
It is used as the Russian anthem too, which is currently unfortunate because it’s amazing.
The tune but not the lyrics, which honestly suck.
France fucks, any anthem about glorious dead and cunting monarchs in to the sun is immediately S tier.
Sincerely, F tier UK.
Qu’un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons !(May impure blood
Water our furrows!)Can’t see anyone misinterpreting that.
Don’t get me wrong, the Marseillaise slaps, but it does have some slighltly problematic aspects.
I’m pretty sure that’s about basting potatoes in too much butter.
No such thing as too much butter
I’ve always liked Canada
It was very welcome at the CNE following the mass booing during the US anthem lmao
I’m a huge fan of O Canada. Always enjoyed catching hockey games where one of the Canadian teams came down and so I’d get to hear it. Also enjoyed seeing games up in Montreal and getting the Francophonian version.

Not Australia. I can assure you
The problem is they are always singing it to the wrong tune
What’s the matter babe, don’t you feel young and free?
You don’t want to be girt by sea?
Whaat? Men at Work is such a good band, though.
I’m glad at least that it’s secular and inclusive. At least, the modern lyrics are - the original are a cringe product of their time.
I vote we move to You’re The Voice by John Farmham.
Are you not fair?
Brazil has a very complicated, beautiful and long national anthem. Its great and all but using such difficult words and being so long means most people here don’t know the full song much less understand its meaning.
Funnily enough, I memorized and can sing the italian hymn because of my middle school, but can’t sing the full national anthem from my own country
I am not sure they still do but back in the day at least some Brazilian text books used to have the national anthem on the back, thats how I learned the words.
France no question
