Live, a capella and hit every single note. That's how to sing a national anthem. This is in the top 3 best anthems in the world, respect from Wales.

I agree. And I am from the United States, and well, I am half Mexican, meaning that most of my family comes from Mexico, and my cousins, me, my older brother, my mom, my friends, and my best friend and I were all born and raised here in America. And well, I do like the national anthem of the United States, which is The Star-Spangled Banner. And well, I can completely understand if you don’t want to listen to it, mostly because it’s all in Spanish and I don’t think that you would understand that the national anthem of Mexico, mostly because it is all sung in Spanish. But if you want to listen to another national anthem from another country, we’ll, I highly recommend listen to the national anthem of Mexico. Just a recommendation.

Nick Afoa you need to sing the anthem every time NZ competes, this is the greatest national anthem in the world and ironic how they are playing against South Africa the second greatest anthem. I'm Australian and the only reason why I watch them play is for the 10 mins of harmonious beauty; and I guess they can kick the ball pretty well.

WhY is it not real anthem material? As long as it makes the people feel patriotic, then I don't see an issue. It encompasses their history and has an English verse and Maori verse. What other country recognises the original heritage of their land, through their anthem better than NZ? I wish Australia would take on a similar approach.
