O canada sucks.
Actually, in the original French, O Canada is quite moving.
Here are the French lyrics for reference:
What's that "oora", "ooraaaaaaaaaaaa" thing in the beginning?
The Star Spangled Banner is fine, of course, when it's lively, but not when sung by those Mariah Carreys, Whitney Houstons and Christina Aguileras and their likes... and I'm having a hard time finding a good dynamic version of it.
it reminds me of my childhood in oman... the little dude on the right is sultan qaboos (kah-boos), the ruler. he's gay but you can't say he's gay or the cops will come to your house. regardless, it was common knowledge that he would **** young guys a single time and then - after furnishing them with beautiful houses and a mercedes and some cashmoney$$$ - move onto the next
To each his own. Whitney Houston 1991 was, IMHO, the most emotionally compelling rendition ever. That said, The Star Spangled banner is objectively a pretty poor anthem. Nearly impossible to sing and doesn't even talk about the country!
Japan's is very soft, quiet, and subdued; basically the opposite of the bombastic US or Russian one. And the words are rather strange.
