Just seen on the NEWS an article about England having its own National Anthem, at the mo we have as you know God Save The Queen but thats not English its British, the Scots have Flower of Scotland, the Welsh have Land of My Fathers, and we groan through GSTQ.
Its been suggested we adopt Land of Hope and Glory, or Jerusalem or even Bowies Heroe's.
Im going to throw Olivers Army into the mix :D 
Whats YOUR suggestion ?























 

Don't start me talking

I could talk all night
My mind goes sleepwalking
While I'm putting the world to right
Called careers information
Have you got yourself an occupation?

[Chorus:]
Oliver's army is here to stay
Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But here today

There was a checkpoint Charlie
He didn't crack a smile
But it's no laughing party
When you've been on the murder mile

Only takes one itchy trigger
One more widow, one less white nigger

[Chorus]

Hong Kong is up for grabs
London is full of Arabs
We could be in Palestine
Overrun by a Chinese line
With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne

But there's no danger
It's a professional career
Though it could be arranged
With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear

If you're out of luck or out of work
We could send you to Johannesburg

Could you imagine all of Wembley singing this :D:D:D

Suggest something simple and catchy :D

Or how about Come Together

Prince William at the FA cup final singing

He wear no shoe shine, he got toe-jam football  :P





Here come old flattop, he come grooving up slowly

He got joo-joo eyeball, he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine, he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger, he shoot Coca-Cola
He say, "I know you, you know me."
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Come together right now over me

He bag production, he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard, he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease

Come together right now over me

(Right!
Come, oh, come, come, come.)

He roller-coaster, he got early warning
He got muddy water, he one mojo filter
He say, "One and one, and one is three."
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see

Come together right now over me

Oh
Come together
Yeah, come together
Yeah, come together
Yeah, come together
Yeah, come together
Yeah, come together
Yeah, come togethe

i think this would suit us good

God save the Queen is a truly awful national anthem, it's one of, if not the slowest anthems out there


As a Scot I have bias towards our national anthem, especially at the football

very apt for us considering our record in tournaments ;) :P

Jerusalem would be a great national anthem in my opinion...God save the queen is just dull and none of our sportsmen/sportswomen seem that into it.

Correct me if i'm wrong here, but as far as I knew, Jerusalem was the unofficial national anthem of the English?, at least i'm sure I heard that somewhere?, there is every chance I imagined it tho :P
