The Russian anthem is superb, so evocative of the toils of the Great Patriotic War.

The Star Spangled Banner always makes me stand up and cheer.

La Marsaillase also works.

The worst by far = the Canadian Anthem, because it is so damn wimpy, just like the "country". I can't wait for Alberta to secede and join the US.

The Star Spangled Banner was inspired by a British Drinking song that Francis Scott Key heard when he was in prison. I think that's hilarious...

I personally love La Marsiellaise (French), the Soviet National Anthem (Communist version), and L'Inno di Mameli (Italy).

You Easterners should be grateful to Harper because he's the only thing keeping Alberta in. Getting rid of Kyoto was an act of common sense and honesty. Now Alberta has less reason to fear for its very existence. But we're waiting for the next act of madness pursued by those stupid Toronto people who have more money than brains.

If there is a repeat of the 1980 National Energy Policy, we'll leave. No negotiations, no waiting. The Liebrals almost did that with Kyoto.

I kinda like it with trumpets and all ...mainly because it sounds so much like my school's alma mater.

Russia's national anthem.

The Belgian anthem sucks. Too pompous. And the lines are about unity and allegiance to the king.

I like the Canadian national anthem because Ralph Wiggum sang it once.
The New Zealand one sucks. 'God Defend New Zealand' - yeah fucken right. Maori version gives it a bit of pep, but it's still pretty crap, and anyone who sings it sounds like a retard. "Eh HI o RA AA TOO AAAHH! oh NGA iWI Ma-a TOU-u Raa!"
Crap, crap and crap.

Edit: Our flag sucks too.

Agreed, the New Zealand one is rubbish. Not only do I dislike both versions (English and Maori) but I have to be put through the pain of listening to both of them every time they are sung.

The English one has grown on me whilst I've been living over here.
