Humour system !? Ahahah u don't have one. Actually there is no such thing. And that guy is not funny. He knows five historical facts and makes a incredibly stupid act with what's that '' offensive'' jokes ? British humor- sarcasm yeah that is true but british jokes are at least a little bit clever, man . All over the world there are dicks like that guy. Wonderful british name ?! Piss off fucking chauvinistic fool . Most of british names are christian like in the other european countries

That's not british humor, that's just humor.

Boyan Kafedzhiyski You've completely missed the point of his act.

Boyan Kafedzhiyski Hmmm, I don't seem to remember someone in the Bible called Albrecht (German) or Adalberto (Italy). So European countries don't really have Christian names. I don't know what kind of humour your country has, but chances are I wouldn't find it funny. This, however, is fucking hysterical.

Boyan Kafedzhiyski Al Murray is actually highly intelligent, he graduated from Oxford with a degree in history.

In 1984 when in London I would walk to "Speakers' Corner" in Hyde Park to listen to the Nuts there. He's no genius there were quite a few like him and they would get the biggest amount of listeners and hecklers.

@@MrJking065 I assume you're American. If so, we kicked yours out of Canada in the war of 1812. Then went to Washington and burned some of it, including the president's house. Then went home for tea and medals.

@@No1sonuk The United States Took on the most powerful Nation in the world with the biggest Navy in the world.Nonetheless, American troops were able to repulse British invasions in New York, Baltimore and New Orleans, boosting national confidence and fostering a new spirit of patriotism.United States celebrated the War of 1812 as a “second war of independence,” beginning an era of partisan agreement and national pride.Now England is just an Island.No more Glory or Power.Without The United States You would be Goose Stepping Today.Listening to Hitler Speeches.

@@MrJking065 It's really funny to the rest of the world how the US thinks they won the war of 1812... You didn't. The US started it by invading Canada. There were territorial gains by both sides (do you remember the part about British troops burning Washington?), At the end, the borders were back were they were before. Technically, as the US invaded and had made no gains at the end, the British won... As for WW2: The invasion of Britain had already been cancelled before the raid on Pearl Harbor, let alone any US forces arriving in the UK. It's not a foregone conclusion that the UK would have lost without US assistance - it would have been different, but not necessarily a loss.

Fuck off.

Lol. :)

DjAlanBarratt it also makes you wonder why so many humourless sensitive twats are watching Al Murray in the first place, and taking it so serious.

+DjAlanBarratt Smooth.

As an Australian I'd also like to point out that we are not entirely girt by sea...there is the Indian Ocean on one side. I guess when we did the anthem the Indian Ocean, the one Gulf and the Bight were a bit of a problem. Yet the worlds most sexiest word "girt" still found its way in.

Almost sounds like it's a reaffirmation for incredulous foreigners.

Really, if you loved the country you’re singing about you wouldn’t need to call the song that says that you love it “yes, we love this country” because again that is what the song should say

That's because you are a bunch of inbred morons (plus a few Ahmeds) up there. Nice.

Poland is Not Yet Lost is pretty damn good. How many other countries created their national anthem while shooting people for Napoleon while their own country didn't exist?

@@noneofyourbusiness9489 And how many other countries view themselves as heroes and victims only while committing crimes against humanity?

The music is great, but the lyrics make it the most ironic anthem, too.

provate @ 1. Why 14 years? The anthem was written during WW2 and between that and 1991 there was about 50 years still. 2. The Soviet Union was not hated. Some people were obviously not happy but the overwhelming majority of people in the USSR loved their homeland and had lived in peace side by side for a centuries. 3. Not sure which line is "Sing to the Motherland, home of the free", maybe it's "Славься отечество наше свободное" which is "Long live our free motherland". Freedom in Soviet/Russian mentality is not the western "freedom" but having a sovereign nation independent from any foreign power. 4. While the things you mention are true, the point of the line is that the Party is the strengh of the nation, which isn't false, as that was the force that drove the USSR through the civil war, the industrialization, through winning WW2 and into winning the space race.

i just waited for the country where i live germany but he forgot germany;) maybe cause the nathem is really boring^^ i love his voice actin when he make jokes about the usa:). for me jokes should connect people from nations,

Same with Australia and most commonwealth countries

Although the same line from the English national anthem "God save the Queen" that he build up so much he used against NZ "God defend New Zealand" basicly making the same joke from completly opposite sides

Racist? Am I missing something here because I haven't heard him say a single racist remark...

@DrTheKay No it's just he said that Murray wouldn't be allowed up on stage if he was an actual racist, so I assumed Al Murray has said some possible racist remarks at some point because otherwise the OP wouldn't have the need to put it in his comment in the first place.

Most of us could tell the satirical edge in his humour; playing off the British yobbo..

(rolls eyes) Well thanks ever so much for helpfully pointing that out. You must think that everyone else here is as thick as pigshit.

@@allsoover You speak the truth.

MA in History from Oxford University. Its one huge act and terrific live.

Some jokes; beautiful British name ! work on repetiton, but he mostly doesnt repeat many of his jokes, he doesnt need to, his genius is: this stuff is endless.

Any comedian usualy does so all audiences can have a go

well half of his act is speaking to the audience and finding humour from them so some stuff will repeat and then jokes written for the show most are new as it depends on the current state of the uk but some will repeat as it hasn't changed.

Bill Bailey remixed the British national anthem. It was a thing of beauty

Just watch CNN. Those fuckers get a laugh outta pissing on our anthem.

The rhythm of it was, not the lyrical parts so

TheMarineGamer IGGHQ The lyrical portion was about how dare these black people try and fight so that they aren't enslaved. Let's go laugh at how we're bombing the shit out of em and making them bleed to death all over the place. The star spangled banner really is just a nasty song.

Khajitxi what the fuck are you talking about?

Khajitxi WRONG!!

The tune to the American national anthem was a London drinking and whoring song called ‘To Anacreon in Heaven’, it’s about getting drunk and grabbing p*ssy.

So they can comment on how 'offensive' or 'rude' or 'incorrect' the satire is. It must make them feel superior. At least I hope that's how it makes them feel, because it makes them sound like fecless twats that need to get a life, or at the very least a personality.....

dokirb Yep, it's called virtue signalling and is one of the SJW crowd's favorite types of ammunition.

Because we're waiting for the comedy and not some guy rehashing other peoples jokes. The "girt by see" joke has been done to death by way better comics.

Poem writing before

Poem writing 1814. Anacreontic Song written 1773 as done so by the anacreontic society. Marsh says 1773, Stevens says 1777. The USA took it as an anthem in 1931 but it had been played by the US Navy since 1880 ish.

This comment was made 10 years ago. Congrats

@@motokid1492 this comment was made 1 year ago, congrats

JoshJuice92 I’m fucking late replying to this, but then the lyrics should really be then “Our Nation girt by sea”

There's only 48 landlocked countries tho

So the vast majority do border the ocean (sorry 4 the late answer)

hey Josh ,, I agree that most countries don't boarder any water ... that's why they don't have stupid lines in their anthems .. talk about stating the fucking obvious ..

He actually said land is girt by sea. So with the likes of Austria which is part of the European continent, that is surrounded by sea. It doesn't have to be landlocked to qualify for being surrounded by sea. Because it is all one big piece of land which is surrounded by sea

A fine British song.

I hope most people from what I will can call the commonwealth countries understand sarcasm and irony and we all seem to be happy doing it to each other because we understand the intrinsic nuances that bind us together rather than keep us apart, and please don't jump at me for using the word commonwealth, I can't think of any other accumulative word to use.

Does it really matter?

The American anthem is a modified version of the British song "Anacreon in Heaven".

He's playing a role of a xenophobic, alcoholic pub landlord. These are not his actual views. He's not doing a TED Talk analysing the historical context of national anthems. It's stand-up comedy.

Why does New Zealand need an anthem? Do other Australian states have anthems too?

@@legojenn are you serious?

The Irish do the same with their entire national anthem except for the three last words that they all know. And I was told by a native Irish speaker from a 'Gaeltacht' that those who do know the words aren't pronouncing half of them right at all because schools don't teach the correct sounds for the language!

Silly people who gave more culture to all the rest of u ungreatfull pricks than all the Others euro cultures combined.

LJY08 Maori version is about defending Aotearoa which is (at least originally) only the North Island

Jan Sten Adámek I understand that the North Island is the home of Maoridom not the South, yes?

LJY08 Maori settled both islands around the same time. But the most powerful settlements were indeed on the North Island, and also European colonization started from the north and most resistance (including New Zealand Wars) was on the North Island as well.

Jan Sten Adámek Visited a couple of years ago...very interesting.

+LJY08 It's pretty much the same thing, asking God to defend the country, but a bit more gentle and poetic. It doesn't have strife and war in it.
