The Worst National Anthem?
8 Answers
Just watching the start of the England-Iceland game at Wembley as there is sweet f-all on any other channel - and heard the Icelandic dirge that sounded like six coffins were about to appear. Or maybe it was our rendition of it this evening?

The tune of the French National Anthem is rousing - but the lyrics are pretty gruesome.
Arise, children of the Fatherland
Our day of glory has arrived
Against us the bloody flag of tyranny
is raised; the bloody flag is raised.
Do you hear, in the countryside
The roar of those ferocious soldiers?
They’re coming right into your arms
To cut the throats of your sons, your comrades!
To arms, citizens!
Form your battalions
Let’s march, let’s march
That their impure blood
Should water our fields.
The UK anthem is a bit of a dirge truth be told.Why dont we just use it for stuff like the Olympics.The England team can use Jerusalem,the Welsh can use Land Of My Fathers,the Northern Irish can use Danny Boy,us Scots can use any Scottish song apart from that awful Flower of Scotland.Scots Wha Hae or Scotland the Brave instead?
