@@OdessiasOddeseys This is the old one tho (It was sang from 1995-1997) It still has the full afrikaans part which was sang during apartheid and wozy moyza part
It was the right decision to make a new anthem from extracts of the former "black" and "white" anthem instead of stringing together these anthems, as it was done in the first few years after the end of apartheid
This man and this game brought our country together. I was a young Afrikaner girl in matric and a waiter at Ellispark for a catering company that day. How honored was I to have seen this. And to boast...Joost van der Westhuizen was in our school just before my time. Magic Moments.
I was there for that WC following England. Had bought my tix in a package that included the final in Jo'burg hoping England would reach it. Alas, we were steamrolled by Lomu at Newlands. I attended the showpiece final and what an atmospheres. Never in a month of Sundays did I think a largely Afrikaner crowd at the home of SA rugby would be chanting Nelson, Nelson when Mandela strolled onto the pitch and then sing along with a black choir the united national anthem. Honoured to have been there, RIP Madiba, manager Kitch Christie, Joost vd Westhuizen, Ruben Kruger, Chester Williams, James Small, and from the NZ side, Jonah Lomu!
Yes I watched this like everyone else in South Africa. Mr Mandela brought tears to my eyes when I knew he was watching this game. But everyone what has happened to our Country since this Victory?
Rest In Peace-Rise In Power To Jonah Lomu, Joost van der Westhuizen, Ruben Kruger, Chester Williams, James Small, Kitch Christie and Nelson Mandela❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I remember our class watched “Cry Freedom” At the end of the film, the original form of this anthem plays and beautifully sung by a choir while the names of prisoners killed in prison were shown with no explanation for their deaths.
Change can be difficult but I thing many knew that change was coming. The National Party had already begun to move toward change in policy in the late 70s.
In the 80s most whites were against apartheid already, in 1989 they voted the candidate that promised to end it (Frederik de Klerk) and in 1992 they voted in a referendum asking for apartheid to end too.
@British Pride not true, before the british there were some 16000 imported slaves, after the british took office, the rights of slaves were greatly increased however the most slaves were imported during british occupation.
Immense act of courage on his part to not eliminate the song and the symbols of the Springboks (including its name) despite enormous pressure from the ANC. Prime example of a politician putting national interest before party.
Nelson Mandela was such a special man, I just watched the movie invictus brought me too tears, I’m white british and we barely learnt much history about apartheid in school I couldn’t believe it when I realised it ended in 1994 my birth year. I watched a movie called recently Mandela, and skin 2008. It blows my mind, I have half black children who are Jamaican and I feel like I need to be knowledgeable on all these parts of history. That we didn’t learn in school, I’ve watched a few American ones Selma about Martin Luther King. And there was a recent U.K. series about Jamaica called the “long song” I’ve also been educating myself on other black history like the black kings and queens in Africa and the pyramids they built ect so my children don’t just see the negativity about their black African history. I’m trying x
Mandela, such an awesome man. Imprisoned for 27 years and when free without lust for blood and vengeance. I myself is not South African. I am European and actuallly feel affection for Apartheid. Does not change anything. I liked Nelson Mandela the great statesman.
Hardcore national anthem this one of South Africa. This Die Stem had it translated jus " To Live Or Die At Thy Will South Africa" wow did not know South Africans were such nationalists.
Well that section actually only means "we will live, we will strive, for you South Africa" in direct translation. I am a Boer and yes we were a very proud people, we held our ancestors and the nation they built in the highest regard; my people also had a deep belief in the old testament and thought the land we had was given to our ancestors by god. I can't really say that now though, a Boer without pride in his nation is like a turtle without a shell, I am that turtle.
If you're unwilling to risk your life for your country you simply don't deserve it and it's a matter of time before someone who does takes over, it doesn't take to be nationalistic, what it takes is the love of your own family and whole-heartedness to your next door neighbour ;)
Not only those two languages. The new national anthem is 2 lines Xhosa, 2 lines Zulu, 4 lines Sesotho (Southern Sotho), 4 lines Afrikaans and 4 lines English.
Judging by his facial expression and how other commenters here stated about his mental history. I think He was depressed...and suffered anxiety. His future health record and attempted suicide indicates that this man's had an extensive anxiety problems rooted from his teenage years. He may have been energetic but deep down...He fears his future which caused him even greater sorrow. I kinda felt sorry for him, especially after the Rugby years...It does felt like he was abandoned by virtually everyone that even Mandella himself had to comfort him.
I think the current version is way better, this I can't hear what they singing except nkosi sikelela part and die stem which makes part of the current one, and I hear those two parts because I know them, if I didn't then I would know what they're singing, maybe the quality of the sound ain't helping as well. Either the African version of Nkosi Sikelela (pre 1994 struggle prayer/song) or the current national anthem, that's just my opinion.
Most beautiful Anthem in the World, even if the situation is never as rose as it should be. Greetings to south Africa, from France 🇿🇦🇨🇵
Howzit
The French national anthem is great to listen to, from New Zealand.
South Africa! I m from France too (a part of France, near SA)
Proud Afrikaner and South African!

such a shame what this country has become brother, too much corruption and killings of farmers, there goes the country's food source
BTL_ReaperLu hang in there lads
Idk about proud but yeah. Tbh I only remember the Afrikaans words, like these okes 😹😹
I still get goosebumps when the anthem plays and the stadium erupts when Die Stem comes on.
It's like a calm verse before an epic drop!
Yup, even in 2024 minority still prefer the Dutch version

Small was immense that day.
Probably like Pienaar, he was so moved he did not want to cry because of how emotional he was.
Mandela wasn’t singing either

How about the voice on that choir? When they hit the "ons sal sterwe" part I get goosebumps and I'm not even from the RSA.

South African and New Zealand anthems are the most favourite anthems of mine
“The Call of South Africa” is amazing!
I am an indian but along with ours this national anthem is very heart touching one
This is the most beautiful version of the National Anthem sung by the late Sibongile Khumalo.

This anthem sounds different yet somewhat similar than the current one
Saul Levy this was early in the post arpathid era so the final arrangement of the new anthem was still being worked out
There was a time that the anthem was simply playing Nkosi sikelel i'Afrika and Die Stem one after another, until in 1997 a new anthem was readapted.
Fredrik Chang wow, that's really interesting
It is. :) Personally I prefer the one we are singing nowadays.
@@fredrikrugby They need to speed the anthem up a notch...sounds like it drags in places

The way the bases ends it ,is just amazing...
Go the springboks 🙂
May the soul of Ma Sibongile Khumalo rest in perfect peace.
I wonder what the white South-African players were thinking deep down, especially with some of their parents supporting the Apartheid regime...
Change can be difficult but I thing many knew that change was coming. The National Party had already begun to move toward change in policy in the late 70s.
Maybe because they realised that their country is Blessed with love and not hate
@British Pride You mean the wealth your British empire stole and enslaved our people?
In the 80s most whites were against apartheid already, in 1989 they voted the candidate that promised to end it (Frederik de Klerk) and in 1992 they voted in a referendum asking for apartheid to end too.
@British Pride not true, before the british there were some 16000 imported slaves, after the british took office, the rights of slaves were greatly increased however the most slaves were imported during british occupation.
I've never felt more proud when I see white people sing the black hymn, and black choir sing die Stem with passion.
Ons sal staande bly!
Nelson Mandela looks like he’s strict on whether the choir had learnt to pronounce die stem Afrikaans lyrics properly lmao
Immense act of courage on his part to not eliminate the song and the symbols of the Springboks (including its name) despite enormous pressure from the ANC. Prime example of a politician putting national interest before party.
Happy that our anthem has updated from alpha

First time we United in this game and last was in 2010 now we are against each other
Its sad man. This is such a beautiful country with beautiful people, yet we hate each other.
Not anymore😂
I especially like this. Version before they merged the national anthems
Love this ! Nelson Mandela is great . Long live the rainbow nation .
4 years later and Africa is in the final again go south Africa!!!!!!
Appropriate name i am restless and stressed about tomorrow
maak ons trots dankie Madiba
Why do you speak Afrikaans as a Chinese person who isn't from South Africa?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did the black guy sing Die Stem?
The black guy is actually a Cape Coloured. Afrikaans speaking. So not unusual for him to sing die Stem.
Why wouldn't he, it's his country's anthem and continues to be
So were they singing in Xhosa and Afrikaans? This was mentioned in the ebook I was listening to on neuroscience
