You answered your own question. It is PATRIOTIC, hence inadmissible. Like the drive to remove "The Star-Spangled Banner" as the American national anthem.

When I hear this march, I think of the legendary Slovak soprano Patricia Janeckova, who passed away in October of last year after a heroic battle with cancer. I pray that all future performances of "Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1" by the BBC will be dedicated to Maestra Janeckova's memory. Patricia lived in the Czech Republic, and there should be a great many Czech and Slovak flags flying in the Albert Hall. ..

I'm 15, but I take it for granted how great my country actually is. My great uncle was among the first off the landing crafts at Normandy in 1944. We alone (with a bit of help from the Americans (when they eventually helped us out)) defeated the Germans and liberated Europe! We owe our past generations all the respect in the world for keeping our country safe. It's now down to us to keep Britain British, and not give it away to every nationality, or Tom, Dick or Mohamed that wants to take us over!

I think this is THE best version of H&G I have ever heard. Not only is the music flawless but the emotion and audience participation is palpable, and it's gorgeously filmed! I get chills watching/listening. Can I assume it's the UK equivalent of Stars and Stripes forever, for your cousins across the pond? We like (love) to call ourselves "patriotics" here, but I guarantee that 90% of those who say it couldn't tell you the history and meaning of our most popular "patriotic" songs they cheer and flag - wave every July 4th 😢 Very sad, we don't know our own history... what's worse, younger Americans can't even find the USA on a MAP. In 2021, 75m adults define being a patriot as violently invading the seat of gov't in a blind devotion to an autocratic con-man who knows even less about our country's history than they do. 😞

[@L._Titus]

Well said! As a fellow American, I agree that a lot of the people who call themselves “patriotic” or “conservative” don’t actually know much about real American history or traditions, just what talking heads on TV tell them America is about. There are some young people who try to educate ourselves about history though (I’m 22).

[@justonecornetto80]

Back in the day of the Nokia 3310 I used to have it as my ringtone and an American work colleague said exactly the same thing.

[@Langstrath]

Indeed. It was a patriotic tune in Britain composed in 1901 and with lyrics added in 1902, some years before Americans chose to appropriate it after playing it at Yale University in honour of its composer Sir Edward Elgar when awarding him an honorary doctorate in 1905. Most Americans only know the trio (slower) section that they play ad infinitum without the lyrics at their graduations

ETERNAL ENGLAND My heart is in the hills of home, And in the winds of March, It sings within Tintagel’s foam And Gloucester’s soaring arch. It floats amid the rain-wet trees And golden fields of corn, O’er silent heights and marshy leas By fog-bound shores forlorn. It races o’er the sun-swept Fells, And walks the secret lanes, It runs upon the open Downs Where Saxons fought with Danes. It laughs along the pebbled brooks By ancient timber’d inns, It dances with the wind-blown rooks And daffodils of spring. It lives within the knotted oak And burrows with the mole, To ‘list the mystic charms and spells Of England’s wond’rous soul: ‘Tis lore that only her children know; The Chosen Ones so fair, And they alone can understand Her invocations rare. But while these live we, too, shall live In high, immortal skies; For if her songs such life can give Can England ever die? By Thurstan Bassett
