[QUOTE="Lardinho, post: 153104"] Being half Welsh, half English, I love the Welsh national anthem, when you hear "Gwlad, gwlad" sung at the Millenium stadium in full swing, it brings a tear to your eye. I love Land of Hope and Glory and Bread of Heaven too, but aside from your own nation, which the original post mentioned, I would say the South African national anthem is the one I love. 4 different languages and so much feeling. If you see the British and Irish Lions DVD where we've won the first 2 tests then when going for the 3rd, get trounced by a proud and powerful Bok team, its replayed on the DVD in almost silence just with a few native South African children singing the anthem and it makes my hairs stand on end. The Lions were magnificent, but the pride the Boks showed in the 3rd test just underlined how tough and passionate they are/were. [/QUOTE]
