Which do you prefer?

I'm watching the Indy 500 and they sang both.
I bet the left is really losing their shite over that.

Let all the csa sympathizers downvote away, but America’s national anthem should be the battle hymn of the republic

quote:

I have read His fiery gospel writ in rows of burnished steel!
As ye deal with my condemners, so with you My grace shall deal!
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel,
Since God is marching on.

Ragged old flag by Johnny Cash should be the new anthem.

If the leftists had their own way, the Indy 500 would be raced by mules pulling Conestoga wagons.

Ditch them both, and make it "The Boxer" by Paul Simon.

Oh I totally disagree.

How can you not love a song about the U.S. holding it's ground against the British and relentlessly fighting back against all odds.

I bet you didn't feel this way 10 years ago.

The entire back story and poem is an amazing work written by a alpha who knew America was going to whip some butt. You were just brainwashed into thinking otherwise.

I posted this here years ago. The lyrics are not the problem. It's the music. If you never heard our national anthem before and you heard it for the first time today you'd say 'that kinda sucks.'

Musically, the best anthem is Russia. France is a close second. Canada's is downright cringe worthy.

Agree with this.

The Star Spangled Banner set to the Russian anthem's music would be a dream team.

This right here.

Soviet anthem is great; France is a great sing along anthem.

No crowds sing along to our anthem if they even know the words. They say musically our anthem is the hardest to sing... professional performers struggle to get the pitches right.

W.A.S.P song Animal should be our national anthem..... or at least Trump’s song every time he steps up to the podium!

National Anthem. We had to fight for our independence and fight to maintain it. Our anthem expresses that.

Sorry, but God Bless America is just better, and I would replace the Star Spangled Banner with it. It’s a memorable tune where people get the gist of it whether they speak English or not. You’d have no idea what they were talking about if you just listened to the tune of the Star Spangled Banner. It’s no La Marseillaise or even Soviet National Anthem.

I’m willing to bet that a sizable majority of Americans think that it has something to do with the Revolutionary War.

I mean, it’s definitely a great poem, but I don’t think that qualifies it for our National Anthem. Listen to La Marseillaise and then get back to me.
