I am so proud to be born in this Great country. Al Murray: Britain's famous " Historian " quoted that "born in England: is like WINNING the LOTTERY of LIFE ...

This is one of my very favorite songs to sing and to listen to. I sang this with the Cathedral Choral Society of Washington, D.C.under Dr. J. Reilly Lewis - in the Washington Cathedral at a United Nations Day concert in October, 1993. Great setting! 220 voices in that venue! Very uplifting! And Lesley Garrett is a fantastic diva. Opera, oratorio, concert, you name it. What a way to start the day!

wow she is spectacular. this version is most definitely the best ❤️🤍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I never tire of this anthem esp when sung by Lesley Garrett.

Those drums are amazing!

I have one of Ms Garrett's albums, and it has given me joy when I listen to it. A beautiful voice, God Bless her.

I love this song. I saw this singer on a TV show. She mentioned that lots of people tell her that singers in musical theatre are not as revered as opera singers. Apparently they are not proper singers. I thought that was a sad comment to make.

פורים יותר קדוש מיום כיפורים זה החג היחיד שקיים כיום😊

Es realmente asombrosa la voz desde de Leslie Garret, y más con esta interpretación!

Magnifique interprétation de ce chef d'œuvre composé par Hubert Parry en 1916. Le second hymne Britannique.

Really GREAT interpretation of that song.....,

a very pure soprano voice She is well known in Italy. We know that sho lost her voice at some time due to a disease but out of determination she regained in full. A real soprano, never a "prima Donna"

It is a fantastic version of the song.

חודש אדר שמיח פורים יום יום😊

What a beautiful voice

Maravilhosa

@chazsmateII True Yorkshire Grit. And truly fabulous.... Voice.

They should play this everytime the players are running out at Twickenham. Imagine the buzz and adrenaline they'd get! Brilliance.

just great.

lovely song and lovely lesley

i sang in thisss! :D didnt hear the final product for ages tho!!

I had a dream where all the great woman singers of the world were crowding into my room. And you didn't.

@ 02.26 - That countenance divine....!

Bruce Dickinson did a cover of this song. Great to hear this and that version of it.

Magnificant; sung by a talented and lovely Diva- Brava!

Como vuela el tiempo :')

Estoy buscando, The Innocent Sleep, de Lesley Garrett, si alguien me puede ayudar con eso, se lo agradeceré mucho. .

There has been no-one like her since Jeanette MacDonald.

However, its unlikely that she'd accept your gift as magnificent as you might believe it is.

+blacklegend89 this song reminds me of Vulcan XH558 because she's at retirement

@ 00.50 - DING-DONG!

great

This song makes me so sad!

yeh i like this. x

Great lungs....

She should be created a Dame of the British Empire!

My mum trained as a soprano with her at the RAM, and apparently she was pretty rubbish back then.

Useless
