I vow to thee my country demands such emotion, it's a very heartfelt song.

Rule Britannia

Love his voice !!!

S

So very true

He does indeed.

Absolutely amazing the way he sings it but you can get better and that's just dumb to think it can't be..Lols

It's on the national BBC channel... Every once a while, it is broadcasted on the sunday services. And yes, you can sing along to hymns as you go along on a Sunday even if you cannot go to church, or whatever. So... Songs of Praise is still on. I have this one in my bookmark...

😁👍👏👏👏👏🇬🇧

What beautiful sentiments❤️

Same here. Growing up in British Hong Kong and moved to Australia. She was our Queen forever. Thankyou for your service Your Royal Highest Majesty. QE 2

In my country the British monarchy was/is the symbol of those who stood against Hitler and our liberation from Nazi tyranny. I know it is today the fashion to bash the British past but we should be brave enough to speak out for the possitive things the Brits gave the world. We own it to those who gave their today for freedom. Like the fight to abolish slavery and for sacrificing their empire to stop the Nazis and fascists. The Battle of Britain was more than a victory for one but for all of us. And be assured they could have made a deal with Hitler to safe the empire, he was willing to talk as he feared his Krieg Marine would not be able to defeat the Royal Navy.

The British people still won't like you 😂😂😂

It's the best version I've heard.

Andy McCullough its a British hymn

@@ruthkenyon1723 It was an excellent choice. Canadian or not, Ramin sings it with a passion that is deeply moving. I doubt Alfie Boe would be capable of projecting anything like as much emotion.

I really appreciate learning that Ramin has has had no formal training . That was my impression. But wow, he is a LION! Judith’s

@@ruthkenyon1723, Ramin has lived in England all his adult life, is married to an English woman and his sons were born and bred in England... oh, and he has the best voice.

Reading this comment while listening made my cry and weap.

Thank you for bringing us the light and hope?? What light and hope we are all DOOMED and out countries of we don't wake up and smell the coffee and I'm absolutely serious..

The red poppies are gorgeous, even if you don’t know what they symbol8ze

This song made chapel bearable as a schoolboy. As a medieval fanatic suddenly singing about armies and fortresses really got my attention.

Me neither

Me three ☺️

I've had this on Loop all night and my goodness, his voice is really stunning for this song!!!

I was waiting for the major applause at the end 😅😅😅

Unfortunately all muzzled, "staying home", cowering behind the sofa, terrorised by state TV. What a disappointment to my grandfather's generation who fought for freedom.

@@portsmouth1781 if your grandfather fought then he put others safety before his own, he put his discomfort aside to help others - I can’t imagine he would whine about wearing a simple mask or staying at home to help others!

@@portsmouth1781 sir. Your grandfathers generation and the generation before, the one that fought in world war 1 went through the spanish flu. Another global pandemic. Many at the time considered wearing a mask a civic duty to their nation and their fellow countrymen as they knew that the safety of the lives of their fellow country men outweighed their comfort. Your grandfathers and your great grandfathers would be ashamed of your selfish actions.

@@obscureoccultist9158 No, they had a thing called "backbone" and "stiff upper lip". We don't all scare as easily as you.

You watch this ten times per day?

Amen to that my brother..As ex officer SF met the great lady…She wills missed by millions both civil and military…Although this is an English song it resonates for us in Scotland where my boss died….

Grow up

@@sanktalucia4959 Again?

@@josephlambe2796 I'm not even British

should be the National Anthemn

The best voice I have ever heard,I have listened to you countless times, keep safe.

​@Pride of Durham I have hearing difficulties and am very grateful to the poster for the lyrics-

Thank you for writing the lyrics.

Beautiful! Beautiful! Powerful Lyrics!!

I heard my country calling from far across the sea Across the waste of waters she calls and calls to me Her sword was girded at her side her helmet on her head And lying all around her, the dying and the dead I heard the noise of battle and the thunder of her guns I haste to thee my country, a son among thy sons. Final verse that was sadly never set to music.

We can't get PATRIOTIC about our country anymore we keep getting told by the WOKE LIBERALS that we should be as ashamed of it.And i absolutely agree what some guy replied to them on SOCIAL MEDIA he told them to go and *FXXK YOURSELF* we are PATRIOTIC of this great country and we are LOUD & PROUD of it.And if you don't like it then FXXK OFF and go and live in somewhere else preferably in ANTARCTICA or ,NORTH KOREA because we don't want your lot here if you hate it and i wholeheartedly agree with him 100%..😂

If you ever make it to England please try and go to Strattford-Upon-Avon. The Royal Shakespeare Theatre is where you will hear English spoken. Any play will do.

You can listen to some very high quality version of this song too. One of the most beautiful CD is done by a lovely Welsh lady called "Katherine Jenkins".... You can buy her CD. Whereas I have this version that I love more bookmarked.... It's a little bit more folky... and it was covered in a local BBC drama.. which I thought was cute. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z8ekp9B3tcqUhnU.html It's very folky and I love it. I've not listened to such songs since school days...

its a hymn, it is sung in church

YES.

Yes I have literally just watched phantom with him in lead part. Beautiful voice and singer.

It was actually in 2011 at The Royal Albert Hall...I was there too, an unforgettable evening.

In the UK, it is "celebrated" on both the 11th (Remembrance Day), and the closest Sunday to the 11th (Remembrance Sunday). On both these day, cannons will fire at 11am for a minute silence around the nation. This is coupled with poppies being worn by almost everyone, where the money donated from their sale goes to the Royal British Legion, supporting both those who have served, and the families of those currently serving.

dianne lavoie its a hymn

@@emilyrosecook1561 The Royal BrItish Legion supports far more

I thought it was a fiver 😂

Oh he can sing. He has played Jean Valjean in Les Miserables on Broadway, the Phantom on West End with Sierra Boggess as Christine(maybe Broadway too) , He was Glen Vagonov from Anastasia on Broadway, I don’t remember who but he was in Chess on either Broadway or the West End, he did the off Broadway production of Secret Garden with Sierra Boggess, and he and Sierra originated the roles of Phantom and Christine in the Phantom sequel Love Never Dies on West End as well as other gigs. And he also has his own little Broadgrass(Broadway & Bluegrass) band he tours with as well as some albums and EPs. The man has some definite singing chops and it’s how he met his wife Mandy.

Oh gosh darn he can sing. Like no other.

@@kimtaylor762 he did chess in Japan but yes he’s a musical theatre legend

@@kimtaylor762 he was also Marius and enjolras in les mis on the west end and enjolras in the les mis 25th concert and he also played Raoul before the phantom on the west end and he was also in prince of broadway

@@kimtaylor762 ramin has never been the phantom on broadway he had sung the phantom quartet on broadway though

Probably because of COVID

Is that the same invisible mystical bearded sky wizard who will send you to HELL for you to BURN, SUFFER,CHOKE for ETERNITY 🔥.....But "GOD" still loves you even when he's TORTURING you to death so don't forget that so thank you "invisible man" 🤡

"I Vow to Thee, My Country" is a British patriotic hymn, created in 1921 when music by Gustav Holst had a poem by Sir Cecil Spring Rice set to it. The music originated as a wordless melody, which Holst later named "Thaxted", taken from the "Jupiter" movement of Holst's 1917 suite The Planets. So credit for the music goes to the British composer Gustav Holst. This was probably first performed in 1921 and became a common element at Armistice memorial ceremonies, especially after it was published as a hymn in 1926. Holst adapted the music from a section of Jupiter from his suite The Planets to create a setting for the poem. The music was extended slightly to fit the final two lines of the first verse. At the request of the publisher Curwen, Holst made a version as a unison song with orchestra (Curwen also published Sir Hubert Parry's unison song with orchestra, "Jerusalem").

😂😂😂😂

👍👍👍👍

Not only a good Phantom, but the best one.

He’s the Best Phantom! Totally love his voice

Listen to him sing 'til I hear you sing' from 'Love Never Dies'

He has that passion with every song he sings.

Asha Kennerly he's an actor

@@lsmith9249, with Ramin, it is more than simply acting.

@@hils9508 it is acting

@@lsmith9249 It’s actually called singing with expression. Acting is when one plays a character.

100%

Yeah we humans are poisoning this planet and mother nature wouldn't be very happy about it i bet..

@Ramin Karimloo i am your biggest fan!

Me here in 25/01/2024

No not really and i don't really care but don't get me wrong i had a bit of respect for the QUEEN but the other ROYALS are just a bunch of useless money grabbing leeches. *ABOLISH THE MONARCY* and take this HYMN as our new *NATIONAL ANTHEM* because that "GOD SAVE THE BLAH BLAH" is absolutely horrendously boring and way out of date so we'll take this as our new *NATIONAL ANTHEM* thank you very much *ABOLISH THE MONARCY* 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Yeah a British composer put words to it..

Same I just ran across him by accident but I'm happy I did what a stunning voice WOW😱

It should be England's national anthem, as it's about everybody not just the monarchy

A truly stunningly beautiful Voice , I’ve Seen Ramin Perform on stage a number of times and his voice gets better (if possible) every time I hear him !! Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

@@vaughanwilliams761 definitely, everytime, that last note 😮 he filled the Royal Albert Hall with that note! Beautiful
