Following two bad renditions of the American and Canadian National Anthem's (performed by me and Bloo respectively), I am asking what you think is the best national anthem.
Being the American trapped in a British body, I will say the Star Spangled Banner. And being american, it is only fitting I put the video of the rendition at Super Bowl 42.

This shits all over Anthems.
But I still love the Australian one as it proves that we are young and free.
No contest (and everyone's going to post this):

Ankh Morpork:
To be sung to Rule Britannia's tune...
"When dragons belch and hippos flee
My thoughts, Ankh-Morpork, are of thee
Let others boast of martial dash
For we have boldly fought with cash
We own all your helmets, we own all your shoes
We own all your generals - touch us and you'll lose.
Morporkia! Morporkia!
Morporkia owns the day!
We can rule you wholesale
Touch us and you'll pay.
We bankrupt all invaders, we sell them souvenirs
We ner ner ner ner ner, hner ner hner by the ears
Er hner we ner ner ner ner ner
Ner ner her ner ner ner hner the ner
Er ner ner hner ner, nher hner ner ner (etc.)
Ner hner ner, your gleaming swords
We mortgaged to the hilt
Morporkia! Morporkia!
Hner ner ner ner ner ner
We can rule you wholesale
Credit where it's due."

Ow yer and Oric not to upset you but the superbowl really is shite 3seconds football and 3mins adverts, takes nearly 4hours to play 1hours football, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and they even forced a slave to sing the anthem, how mean :D
All murray owns

God save the queen by far the best!
The Chinese national anthem, obviously. Nothing can compare in terms of patriotic fervour.
no, that doesn't matter, god save our queen still owns.
You like the Chinese National Anthem Spawn? You seem embarrassingly more English than the rest of us...
Weren't we going to write/choose an ATK anthem (Un Breaking Benjamin related)

There once was a lad called Chalex4, who's sperm count was rather poor... (okay okay... this is going to be censored...)

Go back to digging.
What about trying to make a national anthem with the Punk-o-Matic flash game?
(It's on Newgrounds.)
If you want Chalex I can get the .swf file so you could put it on our arcade.
If you were on the first ATK hike with Chaz, Spawn and I, you would have been part of the discussion.Quote:
