[@EJmayzie]

Still the best version imo. And still listening in 2024

[@cumbriatreesurgeons8943]

Patriotism is not evil, it's joyous and life affirming. We should not grovel and constantly apologise - we are demonstrably better than the vast majority of other countries in so many ways, be proud of it for God' sake.......

[@timolewine991]

Nothing like it. The best of a society.. England is like not other.

These lands gave shelter to my mother's ancestors and welcomed my father and his father. They gave sanctuary and care for the mother of my son The people's of this land died so that I could exist Yes. I would die for this land and it's people.

[@Apotheism]

Being Australian born, but of British descent, I have to say that I am PROUD of Australia's historical ties to Britain. May we have an everlasting relationship, Britain! God save the Queen!

this is the old europe we loooooooove sooo much !

[@AlanJohnRoberts]

Despite the negative connotations attributed to the British Empire it cannot be denied the Empire succeeded in developing and nurturing every nation under it's control, establishing a legacy that is cherished and grudgingly admired even today All 54 sovereign states that were once part of the British Empire, or under it's influence have chosen to retain their links with Britain as members of the British Commonwealth of Nations. A very unique and telling achievement in world history .

[@MPHstep]

Any song which send shivers down the spine of a 20 year old lad who mostly listens to electronic and rap music etc. is worthy of national anthem status ;)

Ich liebe die Briten dafür! Für mich steht es für Zusammenhalt und Einigkeit einer tollen Nation

[@ichauch8963]

It´s good to have two anthems - one for the queen and one for the people ...

[@possummay]

I've travelled extensively, and I know of no other with a song as patriotic as this, and as well loved as this. Even young people, as they get older, come to love this song.

[@leland61]

Great song for a great Kingdom - Kingdom that despite issues and problems brought more good to the Earth than any other Empire in the history of the world. GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.

[@christopherandrews2594]

Bloody marvelous.

[@jerseyscampi]

If this does not want to make you stand up and throw your arms wide open and sing out loud...you are not human!!!

[@johnuhr-henry9508]

What a great venue to listen to this great hymn played by a fantastic Orchestra

[@aranokchildofarkan]

Always puts a little tear in the corner of my eye. I love you Britain.

[@jsky21]

I love seeing this last night at Proms again. Long before Utube I saw a concert on American television which was this Elger piece being played and sung. As I always love the music which is Elgers, now I also have the words and the video. Thanks to RJ who uploaded it for all. I think all people should be as patriotic as English are-- unafraid to show it.

[@williamwoolhouse3702]

Audrey dear,it is Elgar not Elgers.

[@alphonsevanderveer2200]

What a fantastic music. Each time i hear it on you tube i get goosebumps.

[@CHRISDABAHIA]

You're not the only one to get goose pimples on your goose pimples, I'm sure!!

[@mattyswift]

Filled my heart with joy after all that has happened in our wonderful country. Let's fight back Britain we won't take this off these idiots! Reclaim our streets once and for all !!!! UNITED WE STAND... DIVIDED WE FALL

[@herbivorethecarnivore8447]

What the hell was this guy on about

[@Annika94]

I really love this since I saw it the first time in school during music class. It's just amazing to see how the Britains show their patriotism. Iit's sad that you can't see a patriotism like this in Germany because of things that happened over 60 years ago. I don't want to say that these things were right. Actually, they were as wrong as something could be. But we're a new generation, it's not our fault what happened. I think people should be proud of our country. ♥ly greetings from Germany! :)

[@frederikiversen7437]

The most beautiful song in the World

[@johnuhr-henry9508]

Great rendition of this great hymn played and sung at the great hall of the people in London...The Albert Hall.

[@rafaelkafka]

Land of hope and glory, mother of the free / How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee? / Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set / God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet…

[@TimSmith-rk8qg]

Lovely. Thank You 👍

"This is a nation built on TEA!"

[@PJProducer]

That, my friend, is a tradition when Pomp & Circumstance is performed at the Proms. It goes back to the early 1900s. Tantamount to flicking a Bic lighter at a rock concert.

[@Mikephx]

One thing that makes Britain Great is simply this: They know who they are!

[@mcarlus]

I don't know if that really applies now, after Brexit... it seems to me they do NOT have the slightest idea who they really ARE... they think they still live in the 1890s when they had an Empire.

[@johnlawrence7386]

We do know who we are and it is not as slaves to the EU.

[@marvinc999]

Carlus Maximus - "when they had an Empire." WE still DO, Old Chap ! Unlike Lesser Breeds, however, we British ADAPT - as you would expect of a people who MADE the Modern World ! Must be tough being a Foreigner, though (Yanks, Kiwis, Aussies, Canuks NOT included in that term, of course) !!!! Chin chin.

[@panzerl1ed]

We know exactly who we are. A free and independent nation with a vast commonwealth

[@odiejonesukrules7447]

[@valeriejones9277]

This should be our National Anthem, I would then be the first on my feet,bring us up to date with others

[@JackoJ15]

Think i'd prefer Jerusalem. Just. Mainly because there's more singing. And that's what the anthem is all about at Twickenham or Wembley!

[@zenjr1004]

JackoJ15 is there an worse idea them "build Jerusalem here"? Maybe thats why the muslim keep coming.

[@brianmaley971]

Er.! isn't Jerusalem something to do with Christianity ?

We have football, we have Crumpets, Double Decker buses, the best darn sweets in the whole world, we have the best Tea in the world and most importantly we have the Union Jack. We are the Scottish, the Irish , The Welsh , The English and most importantly we are The British. Stand united Britain and we will take home many medals this Olympic game.
