The global warming scenario is pretty grim. I'm not sure I like the idea of polar bears under a palm

One of the best for sure.

The Russian one for me is the best for me though. Such as gloriously, stirring piece of music!

I love the Welsh one, especially at a packed home Welsh rugby game.


I dislike the Welsh team, but I love their anthem.

Flower of Scotland, great to see Princess Ann at the rugby sing about her ancestor getting his ass kicked, great Scottish Rebel song.

Wonderful and my favourite.
Only time I switch to a rubby programme is to hear "My hen wlad..." being blasted out.
I change channels immediately then of course :D

+1, Flower of Scotland before their Football/ Rugby games is one of the best things I've ever seen, unreal.

I think it's a bit embarrassing now considering their recent voting habits!

German and italian anthem, with schmi on the top step, love both :)

The rugby ones are ok (except Ireland's call).
France's one was belted out during the attacks last weekend - that was impressive
The South African one isn't bad

Yes - I agree. Makes a bit of a mockery of it.
