http://www.countryreports.org/anthems/
with the world cup being on, I've heard a lot of anthems and I gotta say, theey all sound fairly similar and generally dull, but for some reason i love these two anthems >
Italy..> Happy, triumphant Russia..> This is my favourite, really stirs the emotions like a half-litre of Vodka
The British anthem sounds a bit funereal for my liking and the lyrics are a bit poncy. Anyone else got any views ?

"Russia..> This is my favourite, really stirs the emotions like a half-litre of Vodka"
yeah, I love this too. a few years ago I played this into my phone cos I thought no one else would have it but I was in a shop and it rang on someone else phone
...though I don't use themed ring tones now

Anthems are bollocks. They dont represent the public at all. How the hell can you generalise a nation of people with one song?
SHITE. utter SHITE!

yeah weakling child , they're all nonsense but I'm talking about the music itself rather than the concept of nationhood. But the Russian one almost makes me want to BE Russian despite the 7 million reasons why being Russian would be a potentially fatal decision , its a great tune.

I don't like the Canadian anthem... I do like the US national anthem though... it's very inspiring I think just the way it sounds and all...

I just like the melody, the music... I don't really pay much attention to words in anthems like these, but the music for your national anthem is very nice... O Canada is boring imo...
