So the unofficial Australian anthem is like "On the Road Again," but you die at the end. I love it.

Britain: *Uses Yankee Doodle to mock America* America: *Uses Yankee Doodle for American pride* Britain: Suprised Pikachu

The unofficial anthem of Italy is the 'Pizza Time' theme song.

You forgot the song that should be Australia’s national anthem: Down Under

Historical Example: The German Empire's national anthem prior to 1919 was "Heil dir im Seigerkranz", but many germans also considered "Deutschlandlied" the Unofficial national anthem, so when the Weimar Republic was established, Deutschlandlied was officially made the national anthem. Maybe we just have to waith for some of these to have their turns.

Rule Britannia gives me the feels.

This was a great video. I didn't expect Norway to be mentioned, but I was hoping for it. Our anthem is so boring compared to other countries. "Sons of Norway"-the historical anthem-is way better. Also, am I the only one who prefers "Hail, Columbia" to "The Star-Spangled Banner"? Your pronunciation sounded more like Gru from Despicable Me trying to speak Swedish tho

I..... forgot that I sponsored your channel. o.O "HOLY CRAP, THERE'S MY NAME! WHAT IS MY NAME DOING THERE?!?" (Especially since I usually use KZfaq logged in with an account with a pseudonym rather than my real name.)

I like how "The Star Spangled Banner"'s tune was taken from The Acreonatic Song, the theme song of a drinking club.

3:42 The best "oversimplified" explanation of waltzing matilda I've heard 🤣

Great job, KhAnubis! 👍

As someone who did choir in High School and had to sing the US National Anthem, I really wish it was changed. It's a nightmare to sing!

You forgot One "'Murica, Fuck yeah!"

As an Australian, you are right about Waltzing Matilda about being full of Australian slang. There are also other Australian anthems such as.. I am, you are, we are Australian I still call Australia, Home. And for those who know their Australian Sport Up there Cazaly (Australian Rules Football) Howzat (Cricket) Simply the Best (Rugby League) I come from the Land Downunder (Soccer and Boat Racing)

I soooo expected Pomp and Circumstance for Britain

I think you deserve more subscribers!

Did you hear? Australians are up in arms about onions on bunnings snags need to be put on the bottom after some bloke slipped on one, right after some bloke put needles in strawberries and the entire fruit industry collapsed.

I'm surprised you didn't mention I Am Australian as an alternative anthem

Country roads Take me home to the place I BELONG *AUS-TRAI-LIA* *EMU HELL*

Anybody going to mention the 1:08 oof

Hello from Norway. Great video

Ima use em

You could make a second vid like this just from polish songs that didn't make the cut when we regained independence, we have: rota, bogurodzica, boże coś polskę and most likely way more that I don't remember

bro have you checked out Oregon’s anthem? it’s epic

You forget Auferstanden aus Ruinen (getting up from Ruins) for germany

I got another one for you: the Dutch national anthem is "het Wilhelmus" ("the William"), but - until somewhere in the 19th century - used to be a song, which first 2 lines roughly translate to: "[He] who has Dutch blood flowing through [his] vains, free of alien (as in outland or from the unknown) impureness", which was later changed to "[He] who (...) [his] vains, whose heart beats proud and free."

You forgot down under for Australia

Don't worry, your Norwegian pronounciation was pretty good. *Definitivly* heavily accented, but good. =) As in anyone would understand what you're saying. ^^ That said, it honestly sounded kind of German rather then Norwegian. But the two languages are so closely related that this isn't really a problem. =) Basically linguistic diversity is kind of a big thing here and pretty much *everyone* will use their local dialect even when talking with language learners and definitivly in official situations, media, politics etc. And since our language is so closely related to the other nordic languages (they're all in a huge dialect continuum) they all just sort of sound like dialects of Norwegian. For instance Danish with a Faeroese accent might even fool Norwegians into thinking it's a Norwegian dialect from some region they're not so familiar with. A mix of Swedish and Norwegian, Svorsk is also close enough to Norwegian that it would probably have been mistaken for a dialect if we wheren't all so familiar with Swedish that we just can't help to notice it, and the same applies to some of the dialects on the Swedish border. Standard Swedish and Danish *is* different enough to be recognized as definitivly not Norwegian although we have very little problem with understanding them due to all the practice we have with our own dialects that's often quite different from eachother. Icelandic and Faeroese while harder to understand for your average east nordic person sounds an awfull lot like some of the more rural and conservative of the western norwegian dialects found hidden deep in some of the valleys and fjords of Norway and people in those regions generally understand Faeroese and Icelandic quite well, and the rest of the norwegian population can generally get the gist of what is being said in Icelandic or Faeroese even if the individual words don't always make sense to us. Heck, even German (northern german dialects) and Dutch makes a lot of sense to us. Ugh, that ended up a lot longer then I planned... But the point (more or less) that I'm trying to make is that we're used to people not talking *exactly* like us so even if some might call you out for not talking Norwegian I'm fairly sure that they'll be good natured and just offer advice on how to do better next time (if you want to) =)

Now I know why the torch lady is called Columbia.

Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong, under the shade of a coolibah tree, and he sang as he watched and waited 'til his billy boiled. "You'll come-a waltzing with me!" Also, Australia has a few other patriotic songs, like I Am Australian, which really should be our anthem instead.

3:27 I sang "Waltzing Matilda" and "Advance Australia Fair" our school here in The Philippines when i was in 4th Grade (gladly i know some of tge anthems in the world) when the (idk if its the Principal?) of the Parkside Primary School (Adelaide, South Australia) came in our school. I was to shy to sing it but i made it💀.

Ireland's unofficial anthem (Ireland's call) is actually used by many sports teams on the national level

How dare you mention alternative Australian anthems without including I Am Australian?

I only know what waltzing Matilda is because we played in band

China, both Chinas, have their secondary national anthem. Republic of China have "National Flag Anthem of Republic of China" (Blue Sky White Sun and Wholly Red Earth), currently used in sporting events as Chinese Taipei. Meanwhile, People's Republic of China has "Ode to the Motherland". It currently counts as patriotic song. In Cultural Revolution times, "the East is Red" is unofficially the national anthem.

1:12 IM PISSING 😂😂😂

Unofficial Anthems of Australia: Waltzing Matilda (Banjo Paddison) Land Down Under (Men At Work) Sounds of then (Gangajang) Smoko (The Chats) Boys light up (Australian Crawl) Any song by AC/DC, INXS, Midnight Oil, Cold Chisel, Black Keys, Powderfinger Australia Street (Sticky Fingers) (Personally also sorta "Covered in Chrome" by Violent Soho's but eh) and finally,

But what about "Land Down Under" ?, Isn't that Australia's unofficial anthem?

Ireland has a anthem called Ireland call

“Parallel universe America” LMAO so true

Here in Ireland the national anthem is Amhrán na bhFiann but lots of people don't know the words. I think more people know the words to Ireland's Call which is sung before rugby matches

Always great when Norway is mentioned...

Some of the state names in the United States did have other names as relating to European countries

Land down under *isn’t* the anthem?

2:00 Is that Monkey Island playing in the background?

I would also put "The battle hymn of the republic" on the list of almost anthems for the USA as it was and is very popular mainly in Christian areas, mostly in non-Confederate Christian parts of the nation (though it is some what popular in very patriotic areas, including secular and southern areas, well at least in my experience)

are you and MrBettsClass like friends in real life?

WHY THE FLIP DID U USE PLAYMOBIL CHARACTERS?

Why "The Internationale" spread throughout the World and also translated in different languages?

You forgot Poland with Rota

Oh

1:09 the kid fall into the fountain

Fun Fact: Song For Kim Il Sung Was Played As Anthem In North Korea And It Was Considered As An Unofficial Anthem In North Korea

If you make a video about unofficial regional anthems then please dont forget germany

I do know that in Bolivia this following song ( in translation -"Long live my motherland Bolivia) is considered there unofficial second national anthem - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/er9pdbiZkpvWYGg.html - You got to admit that it sounds better then there official one - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qcqIftOh3tXYm3U.html

Dude mcdonalds or maccas came from my country australia!

Aside from having the oldest national anthem still used* Het Wilhelmus, The Netherlands also has Nederland Oh Nederland Jij Bent Mijn Kampioen Wij Houden Van Oranje Om zijn Daden En Zijn Doen And Hup Holland Hup Laat De Leeuw Niet In Zijn Hempie Staan Hup Holland Hup Trek Het Versie Geen Pantoffels Aan Hup Holland Hup Laat Je Uit 't Veld Niet Slaan Want De Leeuw Op Voetbalschoenen Durft De Hele Wereld Aan *If you don't count lyrics in isolation later being used as part of a national anthem and just care about when the song was established rather than when it was officially recognised as the anthem. For more details see KhAnubis' video on the topic.

Poland:Zeby polska byla polska

Nobody's going to mention Finland's Finlandia-hymn?

Have you come across this? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9yYYNp2vdzIh2w.html Before anyone says it is racist just know that I am Welsh and it makes fun of the English too.

I like to mention "die waght am rhein" wich had been posed as an athem for the german empire. It whould have replaced "deutch land uber alles" as the souther german states preffered it to uber alles. Mainly because it was already used by the northen german confederation

I wish India's Anthem was Qadam Qadam Badhaye Ja

Australia's is Down Under by Men at Work

uhh in the song matilda is the name of a girl. the jolly old swagger man is her father which drowned be trying to escape troopers ( police ) by jumping in the billa bong ( pond ) and drowing via being caught he lilly pad weeds

Yankee doodle sound like a yankee team member doodle

Australia is also called Upside-down land

I would consider The Pleasure Principle by Janet Jackson to be the unofficial anthem of the US

Let the tendies hit the floor Let the tendies hit the floor Let the tendies hit the floor Let the tendies hit the REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Hi, I'm British. Here is a fun fact. The anthem of England (not great Britain or the UK) is in fact Jerusalem, however this is only for organ accompaniment. If with orchestral accompaniment, the national anthem of Britain is in fact land of hope and glory. And officially, the British (not English) orchestral anthem (without singing) is indeed Rule Britannia, and is played for military or royal parades. YOU SHOULD MAKE A VIDEO EXPLAINING THIS LOL!!

i don't really understand why the country of Canada was at the end of the video. I hope it's to show respect to my country

This video would have been better if you actually played the anthems in question

Wait Yankee Doodle was an anthem?? I'm guessing it didn't say he stuck a feather in his cap and called it macaroni in the original.

Unofficial anthem of turkey is "ceddin deden" its not the anthem because its too empire as they say.

2:24 + Liechtenstein

Society will be really great if Rule Britannia is adapted as national anthem.

You forgot 'Merica Fuck Yeah.

Australia = upside down USA

I'm Australian and I have never heard the "Unofficial Anthem," maybe I'm just weird....

So you didn't talked about Bande Mataram of India?

American symbols when you dont get the joke on 5 differnt levels

Norge! Norge! Norge!

The serbian "Marš na Drinu" just barely missed out in serbian parlament by 1 vote in 2006

Yes, we love this COUNTRY not land, and you pronounced everything incorrect! You sounded more Icelandic than Norwegian :(

Sweden technically doesn't have any anthem, but "Du gamla du fria" is used for official purposes, and laws to make it official have not passed since it's unnecesary to make it official when it de facto works as the anthem

America the beautiful is also a very American song that could be the national Anthem.

Correction: ALL THE ISLANDS not alot ALL THE ISLANDS FOR THE UK

The Maple Leaf Forever

🤔

Good Norwegian pronunciation... for an American that is

Hey, you forgit Down Under, that´s considered an unfficial Australian Anthem. Just type Australian national Anthem in youtube, it is the 4 or 5 result.

What’s on your head

Well Norway's patriotic song is referencing the flag

An example of this: Official US National Anthem: Star-Spangled Banner, Francis Scott Key, 1815 (War of 1812) Unofficial US National Anthem: America the Beautiful, Katharine Lee Bates, 1895 (The Patriotic Climb of America)

Qing Dynasty's anthem: Cup of Solid Gold although managed to be the official anthem of Qing Dynasty of China, well only days after managed to be adopted, the republican revolution occured

Poland had Rota, it didn't make it sadly

Ian Berwick gang where you at?

Many English people consider 'Jerusalem' to be the anthem of England, as distinct from the UK. Bit too religious for my tastes though.

You mention Poles in the video.... and you didn't mention Polish anthem contest? Where the main point of discussion was how much we want to hate on Germans and Russians in it? (The answer is "saying we'll fuck you up with a sabre is fine, but maybe we should hate on both equally and not dedicate most of the song to hating on Germans") I hope you didn't know, cause otherwise not including the fact that country that nowadays is 90% catholic (so back then, it was probably like 99%) had a song about how much God's Mother loves Poland be left far behind by two songs in significant manner about hating your neighbours is unbelievable.

Yeah, Rule Britannia is cool, but we have so many other patriotic songs that aren't God Save the Queen that are also fairly commonly sung: Land of Hope and Glory, Jerusalem, I Vow to Thee My Country...
