Long live England. Love from New Zealand. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇳🇿

Watching this is so strange. I don't recognise my country anymore. Instead, I feel nostalgic for a time I never knew. This is still my England.

You, English people, have such a beautiful culture, such beautiful people... Never forget that.

You were loved Vera. An icon of a lost age. You’ll never be forgotten.

My mother was proud of her British heritage and often sang this song at the dinner table. Hearing it brings back such memories.

Long live England from an Serb 🇷🇸❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I am so proud to be born an Englishman! Long live England!

I live in the states and was just about to turn in when a friend of mine in England gave me the news. Now I can't sleep because I'm listening to Dame Vera's music on repeat. RIP and God save the Queen.

I am aU.S. citizen and proudly so. However I dearly love England! She is our "Mother Country" and so great a nation! Hail to the Empire too! Roger Howlett

Long live England ! God save the queen! Greetings from Croatia!!

After hearing of the passing of my gracious Queen, it felt only fitting to play some Vera Lynn - somebody beloved by the queen in many ways. Now she has passed.. God, save the Queen and long live the king ❤️🙏

This patriotic song needs to get played everywhere including Radio 1 to remind Britain's of it's once greatness.

Love this standing side by side with our English brethren Rule Britannia from your friends in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth II, you will always be the epitome of England

I'm an American but I can appreciate the patriotism in this song. More people should be listening to music like this and take pride in their home countries.

I am Canadian and of English descent. I love England. My heritage is in Cornwall. Now more than ever we must fight for our home and people. England is not free right now, neither is Canada ( a British Colony!). Let's fight for freedom!

Happy 100th birthday, Vera!

There will be. Protect her heritage.

Great song for a great country. Regards from Belgium.

I was. Born in ‘36 the war was over in ‘45 The songs were great but the fighting fierce. Glad the was a Vera Lynn to booster spirts. She had a marvelous way with a song.

Tea drinking intensifies

May respect be due, we have definitely had our difficulties, but atleast our friends across the sea are free. Respect from Ireland

If the English ever feel the need to change their anthem this would be a good thing to change it to

Yes there will always be an England...all the best in this days of suffering...no surrender....with love from Germany your Anglosaxon counterparts

Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth II, thanks you for your service. A woman full of dignity someone to look up to. Reunited you are with your beloved Philips, Queen mother, your sister and your good friend Dame Vera Lynn. And ofcourse with all the other people of your generation and the onces before! Rest in peace 1926-2022. Fly high, We will meet again some sunny day.

RIP to the Greatest singer in Britain

Hope to see England rise again! No surrender! 🇩🇰🇬🇧

Rest In Peace Vera. Lifting our spirits for 80 years.

United England Moment

I live in the North of England. It still looks like this. People drink in the same pubs their grandads did. There's poverty, but there're no acid attacks, no moped thefts, no grooming gangs. You might get a punch up outside the local on a friday night, that's about it. But it absolutely infuriates me that London has become so utterly detached from the rest of the country that to most young lads where I'm from the idea of living or working in London is completely unthinkable. We've got virtually nothing in common with our own capital city now - how can that possibly be right? It should be the place we feel most safe and most welcome of all.

🇬🇧 🇮🇪 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇦🇺 🇳🇿 God bless the English Speaking World! God rest Vera Lynn’s soul.

Proud to be British. Despite being a small island, it was us that laid down the foundations of the world we live in. Even if its not perfect, there will always be and England

Fascinating footage. What amazes me is that after 6 long years of war and real hardship, the people still dress well. They have a pride in their appearance and standards. We are so much wealthier than they ever were and yet we moan and blame others for our deficiencies. What people! As Churchill said when Goebbels said of us, 'we will wring the chickens neck', 'some chicken, some neck!'

Should be played on the radio on St George's Day

VE DAY JAN 31ST 2020 BROUGHT ME HERE, YOUR WORDS STILL HAVE STANDING VERA

Rest in peace Dame Lynn "There will always be an England and England shall be free, if England means as much to you as England means to me!"

Dear Dame Vera, Thank You for the immeasurable boost you gave to the lads in their many hours of need. Off you go to the NAAFI and have a tipple with the boys - you've earnt it. Rest In Peace lovely lady x

Never has there been a time since the war that this song became so relevant.

The British Reunification TNO

"If I should die, think only this of me: That there’s some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England." Indeed, there'll always be an England.

New Zealand born with UK citizenship through my Mum, I have the best of both worlds indeed THERE'LL ALWAYS BE AN ENGLAND ,AND THERE'LL ALWAYS BE A NEW ZEALAND AND A COMMONWEALTH AS WELL !!

Long Live England 🇬🇧 From an American

We need music like this now.

I pray to our old gods that it is true that there'll always be an England...unfortunately the chances are slim if this current trajectory into madness continues.

Greetings From Germany! May The UK Live forever,May there Always be an England! May The Empire Comeback one day.

Gosh.. this brought tears to my eyes. Dame Vera Lynn sadly passed away today, 18th June 2020; we lost a national treasure. Just watching this video made me realise how truly free everyone must have felt on that day.. walking freely in the streets with no fear of being bombed, or an air raid siren going off. Having to rush to do what they needed to get back home ‘just in case’; it must have felt so freeing, especially for the younger generation, to say to their siblings, friends, partners.. ‘grab your coat! Let’s go!’ to join hoards of crowds to dance & celebrate until the small hours that they’re finally free of Hitlers clutches. Seeing those young women & men at the end made my heart swell. Those women likely waited all of the war for their men, crying, praying, begging for their safe return. Enjoying walking in the fountain with no cares in the world before embarking on the next stage of their lives. My father was born on May Day 1945, he sure knew how to make an entrance. My mother was born Jan 1946, & they both remember the ration books, the sense of community that continued post war, & patriotism; something not always experienced these days. Thank you for sharing 💕 x

"I give you a toast, ladies and gentlemen I give you a toast, ladies and gentlemen May this fair land we love so well In dignity and freedom dwell Though worlds may change and go awry While there is still one voice to cry There'll always be an England While there's a country lane Wherever there's a cottage small Beside a field of grain There'll always be an England While there's a busy street Wherever there's a turning wheel A million marching feet Red, white and blue What does it mean to you? Surely you're proud, shout it aloud Britons, awake The empire too, we can depend on you Freedom remains These are the chains Nothing can break There'll always be an England And England shall be free If England means as much to you As England means to me Red, white and blue What does it mean to you? Surely you're proud, shout it aloud Britons, awake The empire too, we can depend on you Freedom remains These are the chains Nothing can break There'll always be an England And England shall be free If England means as much to you As England means to me"

With deepest respect from Czech Republic Rest In Peace Vera Lynn

Happy Platinum Jubilee week from Salt Lake City, Utah, 🇺🇸! Long live the Queen, her remarkable generation, and the greatness of Churchill’s island!

Ladies, and gentlemen! The politicians took this from you! “Reclaim your birthright!!”

I love England with all my heart!

Magnificent lady in her efforts in keeping moral up during England’s darkest days, this song never fails to bring a lump in my throat. RIP Vera Lynn.

Rip our queen 🇬🇧💔 8/9/2022 💔💔💔💔 they will always be an England 🇬🇧 😢

My Dear Mum used to sing this. She was in London during the Blitz just a kid when the doodle bug bombs started to rain down on her home in Poplar. She was alone in the house so she grabbed the cat and went and hid in the outside loo until the raid passed. The following week the house next door was bombed out so she was very lucky. So proud of the British people who even during the darkest moments cried "we will never surrender" Thank you Dame Vera a great lady.

I miss the old England, the days of splendor and glory.

english and proud. there will always be an england 💯🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

My grandmother told me her recollection of when Germany surrendered. She said they heard the news early in the morning (around 03:00) and the whole town came out en masse to sing, dance and celebrate those 6 years of hell being over. She is nearly 94 now and still remembers it all.

RIP Englands sweetheart......VOICE OF AN ANGEL.

R.I.P. Dame Vera you will always be in the hearts of English people , what an iconic figure the Best of British x

Queen Elizabeth brought me here, Vera’s songs never get old.🇬🇧🇬🇧

The awesome lady ,Vera Lynn R.I.P

*MAUDLING TIME BABY!*

I wish i was around to see this england

God bless you Dame Vera Lynn. How could we lose when we had people like you. Europe has a short memory.

May Her Majesty the Queen rest in peace.

We will never surrender.

Not so sure of this sweet truth anymore 😢 God Bless England & all that the honest people of Britain stand for.

Never surrender! 🇺🇸🇬🇧✊

I get goosebumps every time I hear this. Rip legend.

Rest in peace, Vera Lynn, we'll meet again...🌹

England best country in the world I love u

I love my country, I love my brothers and sisters who have built this country from a parts of the commonwealth, they fought and died, heroes all colours. 💪✌️🙏

Ironic that this crops up on my recommended on brexit day. Such a powerful song. Makes you so proud to be English.

I'm born in the Bronx..but I almost tear up when I listen to this!

If only our packed streets still looked like that 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

ОЧЕНЬ КРАСИВАЯ ПАТРИОТИЧЕСКАЯ ПЕСНЯ ! ВЕРА - АНГЛИЙСКАЯ ЛИДИЯ РУСЛАНОВА, МОЛОДЕЦ ВЕРА !!! С ДНЕМ ПОБЕДЫ !!!!

RIP Vera Lynn. There'll always be an England. A Northern Irishman in Sunderland.

A Great Singer with an Outstanding Voice. How Great She is. I am a Lebanese fan of Vera Lynn and her Patriotic Songs ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

FORWARD!!!

Happy St George's Day 🍻😉🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Such a great song 👍

Can't wait to put this on the speakers loudly this Friday for the celebration of the 75th Anniversary of VE Day!!🇬🇧🇬🇧

The tragic thing now is that you would probably get a ticket for the awful crime of releasing ticker tape from your window. 😢

I’m sure Her Majesty the Queen is in good company with Dame Vera Lynn!

I'm not even English, but I love this song so much. I can well imagine, how this beautiful anthem of hope gave people all the endurence and bravery they needed during England's darkest hours. When people were hiding in the bunkers and subway stations, while the Blitz was going on above them, during the long Blackouts and when food and basic supplies were rationed. I've seen some of the old black and white fotographs, that show civilians still smiling and making music while they were hiding underground, people continuing their everyday life like nothing ever happened, while everything around them was laid to waste. That's what I appreciate so much about the British: You never surrender and most important, you never loose your humor, even in the darkest times. People like Winston Churchill and Vera Lynn are the embodiment of that spirit. May she rest in peace. Nowadays, we all need that spirit again. And this song says it all: If you stand together, believe in your country and yourself, then you will withstand every crisis. So come what may, there'll always be an England! I hope this song still encourages you the same way it encourages me. Best wishes from Germany going out to all of you, my English friends!

Solidarity with those in the UK going through the Coronavirus pandemic from New York. We will see through this as did our grandparents during the Second World War!

Dame Vera Lynn was a remarkable woman! God Save the Queen

back when men were men, no one was offended by the smallest thing and there was no hiding behind a computer screen. RIP Ms Lynn
