I once read a profound epithet on a gravestone in Middle England. Its sentiment was from an old veteran when talking of the English, Welsh, Scottish and Irish. It reads, “In the streets and in the taverns they’d mock each other till they were blue in the face, but in the fields of victory and, sadly, under them, they would die hand in hand, forever bound by what their fair isles stood proudly for. Freedom, Peace and brotherhood for all. Indeed somewhere under the grounds of Normandy there lies Irishmen with Englishmen and Scotsmen with welshmen, all facing the same way, in the direction of hatred and evil. Never be in any doubt that when confronted with a monstrous evil, our blessed isles in the north of Europe shall rise as one”.
From the Highlands of Scotland to the rolling hills of Wales, from the Glens of Antrim to the English shires. Two Islands, four peoples, one nation under one crown. God save the Queen and God save my little homeland.
First Delivery that’s an ignorant thing to say, well over a million served in combat roles in the Soviet Union. Tens of millions more across all Allied nations contributed so that able bodied men could go to war
First Delivery Total British combat deaths are below a million, in fact, around half a million, so I am not sure which millions of men you are talking about in WW1. You really should care about the Soviets, without them, millions more British would have perished.
@First Delivery if it wasn't for the Soviets losing millions of men to neutralize the Nazis from the East, we all would be speaking German by now and saying "Heil Hitler". The Allied nations could not resist against the strength of the German army, that's why they begged the US to enter the war. Who came in 1944 - just as the war was basically done and disgracefully took all the credit for the victory. When in reality we should thank the Soviets for the freedom we have today and for your stupid little anthem.
First Delivery Of course, I don't deny that. It could have happen. But you can take that same argument and apply it to all the conflicts that happened in human history. There has been worse countries than the Soviet Union and the UK is definitely up there as one of the cruelest countries in the history of the world. The reality is that nearly 20 million soviets souls were lost in WW2 fighting for a common cause. I really doubt we would have any kind of freedom if Germany had won. And that's where ignorance comes
@First Delivery just be thankful to everyone who gave service in and outside of combat and dont cherry pick it because you're trying to make a shitty point
I’m now playing this piece of music again in the aftermath of our dear Queen’s passing, feeling very morose indeed. It’s particularly apt given the fact she did indeed vow to her country at the tender age of 25. She saw her commitment through. A more stoic women never existed. Good bless her and may her eternal rest be peaceful.

I am Dutch and every year in september I am in Arnhem and its vicinities and pay hommage to the brave men of H.M. forces who fought, bled and died in Arnhem en Oosterbeek. At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, I will remember them.
Such a wonderful sentiment. My father and uncles fought in WW II and it is the only foreign engagement in which I, an American, can express unqualified pride.

There are lyrics to this music and no country in particular is mentioned. Therefore I feel it belongs to everyone who values freedom and who believes in the decency and compassion of most people. Incidentally, the painting depicts a scene from the battle of Jersey in 1783 and is the work of Anglo-American artist John Singleton Copley. It's to be seen at the Tate Britain gallery in London.🇺🇸🇬🇧
I am irish but i have respect for the brits, I have no ill will to them. And I admire their legends whom stood their ground and never surrendered. Despite all that has happened between us, I just want the 2 island sisters to live in peace, a beautiful emerald guarded by a mighy lion.
very good tom ! our grandfathers and many before perhaps did indded stand firm , however we can give thanks to the never far away regiments if not leading , the irish - scottish and welsh relied on never yielding brothers .
+Doy Virginia We've always been together like brothers. We have had the odd fight, just like brothers. We don't always agree, like brothers. But we have one another's backs akin to brothers. So I see no reason why this music should not affect an American such as yourself in the same way it may effect a Brit.
+Robert Henderson-Rhodes i love america lol, but lets be honest, they were reluctant to help us in ww2 and Obama is hoping to high hell to get this TTIP agreement sorted, how things have changed
Americans are not our 'cousin's'. They're very racist towards the English calling us 'Limeys' and other names which are very derogatory terms. It's a very unequal one sided relationship. Obama was no friend of Great Britain, quite the contrary we were to go to the 'back of the line' in his infamous pre-Brexit speech. However half-British Donald Trump will be a great friend and ally. Most Americans don't like the English, unless you're in the original 13 states.
As a proud New Zealander, I am very honored to be a commonwealth nation under Her Majesty. My great-great grandfather fought for the Empire during the First World War and then fought under King Albert in the Second. Every time I listen to this song I think of him even though I never met him. I think of the sacrifices he made. God Save the Queen
As one not born English, I beg to differ. I wouldnt want to be born a Saxon in any way - I'm proud of my heritage, and feel I am the "winner" for the lucky chance of my birth. Go to blazes Rhodes.
English ancestry... my family arrived from England in the American colonies in 1740. According to some cursory research, I have relatives in the East Anglia region. DNA report indicates 97 percent European ancestry. I'd like to visit the UK someday.
I pray every day that the strong national bond that the US and Great Britain share shall never grow weak. How much I admire the Empire's soldiers in the trenches of the Western Front during the First World War and the outstanding aviators of the Battle of Britain amongst the other great warriors and defenders of freedom that have served through the ages. I dream of the day I get to visit the UK and experience the country and people for myself. Long live Great Britain and long live the United States.
God bless England, this sacred plot. God bless all of her patriots. I don’t care what they put on tv or what laws they write. I’ll remain loyal to England until the day I die. We few, we happy few. We band of brothers.

If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England. There shall be In that rich earth a richer dust concealed; A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam, A body of England's, breathing English air, Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home. And think, this heart, all evil shed away, A pulse in the eternal mind, no less Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given; Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day; And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness, In hearts at peace, under an English heaven. Rupert Brooke, 'The Soldier'

thomas cochrane He was dismissed from the Royal Navy in 1814 following a controversial conviction for fraud on the Stock Exchange. He helped organise and lead the rebel navies of Chile and Brazil during their respective successful wars of independence through the 1820s. While in charge of the Chilean Navy, Cochrane also contributed to Peruvian Independence through the Freedom Expedition of Perú. He was also asked to help the Greek Navy but was prevented by events from having much impact. In 1832, he was pardoned by the Crown and reinstated in the Royal Navy with the rank of Rear Admiral of the Blue. After several more promotions, he died in 1860 with the rank of Admiral of the Red, and the honorary title of Rear-Admiral of the United Kingdom. His life and exploits inspired the naval fiction of 19th- and 20th-century novelists, particularly the figures of C. S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower and Patrick O'Brian's protagonist Jack Aubrey.

My Wife's Great Great Great Grandfather held General Wolfe in his arms as he lay dying on the plains of Abraham at the battle of Quebec. He is in a famous painting of this event. He was a Colonel in a highland regiment that fought there.
Wolfe was beloved by the Highlanders because whilst serving in the British Army he'd refused to murder a wounded Highland soldier after the Battle of Cullodon. His punishment was to be sent to the Highlands, but word of his decency got there before him and he was treated well.

Brits, true Brits never forget their devotion to their country. It is always there in the background. The patriotism hangs in silence, much like the mist upon a green English hill on a British autumnal afternoon. We will always remember our love for our country no matter what evil forces happen to be at play to distract us from this. When the time comes for strength, power and defence of Britain and her ideals we will always be there, ready and waiting to fight and defend the cause. That is what it means to be British, and in the modern era this can get lost in the distance, much like a small flame on a matchstick. But it is still a flame that is still alight, no matter how dim it may seem. All it requires is a tinderbox and once again British people will rise in defence of our nation, and we will defend her against whatever force threatens her. Remember this and remember it always and we will always have a country we recognise and a country we can call Great Britain. Each and everyone one of us has this duty and it is between us and within us that the fabric of this nation exists, and it will exist for generations to come as long as we galvanise the spirit of being in love with ones country and owing to defend her at every opportunity. May god protect us and our country, forever and always.
No matter our race, no matter our ethnicity, no matter our gender, no matter who we are, we are all one people in this country. One country under the Union Jack and the King. We are either part of its history or we plan to be, but we are all its future. We must unite. We must not be divided. We must keep the traitors shut up and we must be bold. The enemy is close outside and deep within. Yet we must be resolute. We must be like Britain herself. Britannia paves the way for how we should act. We must stand against the invaders time and again, like Britain withered under the Blitz. Britain won in the end. We will win in the end. We will win. Because we have our country close to our hearts. May God Save our Gracious King, my fellow citizen 👑
By the Grace of God, our People and our Country, whom he has continued to bless, help and preserve for thousands of years, will stand firm again through our prayers and His Presence, in the current Storm of evil we face ahead. Our Lord and Our God! They have no power over Him. They will not prevail! God Wins! ✝️🏴🏴🏴🇬🇧⚔️🛡️✝️

@@williammorley2401todays Britian sadly is only a shadow of its former self. We no longer have the strength to be a global power on our own and leaving the EU and abandoning the european project alongside of brutal and rude mockerys and insults towards Europe on the side of the brexitears felt like a betrayal to many europeans. And brexit has proven to be an evonomical suicide which has destabalised the nation to the edge of splitting up, while the EU is stronger and more united than ever thanks to the war in Ukraine, the corona pandemic and to a limited degree the desaster that brexit proved to be. So there is little to be said about modern Britain except of mockery and jokes, despite all the great things our country has achieved.

She is now with Philip in eternal glory and will always be remembered for what she was: a Queen, a lady, and above all, a mother to us all. R.I.P Queen Elizabeth and long live Charles 3rd!
@Rob ‘Stewart’ Roy not this royal family u silly cunt. Plz tell me what QE2 did to our people u absolute fool, get a history lesson
@Rob ‘Stewart’ Roy yes she gave 5 pounds aid. Ive forgotten more english history today than uve learned in ur entire life, but, again, who the fuck mentioned Queen Victoria?? Im pretty sure QE2 was a different person, unless of course u are someone who believes the son is guilty of the crimes of the father? Honestly, take ur hateful bullshit and get a fucking life.

More than three quarter of the Netherlands was liberated by British and Canadians.

Such a wonderful sentiment. My father and uncles fought in WW II and it is the only foreign engagement in which I, an American, can express unqualified pride.

We are cousins. there is no limitation on patriotism, and pure fucking AWESOMENESS!!
Americans are not our 'cousin's'. They're very racist towards the English calling us 'Limeys' and other names which are very derogatory terms. It's a very unequal one sided relationship. Obama was no friend of Great Britain, quite the contrary we were to go to the 'back of the line' in his infamous pre-Brexit speech.
However half-British Donald Trump will be a great friend and ally.
Most Americans don't like the English, unless you're in the original 13 states.
As a proud New Zealander, I am very honored to be a commonwealth nation under Her Majesty.

English ancestry... my family arrived from England in the American colonies in 1740. According to some cursory research, I have relatives in the East Anglia region. DNA report indicates 97 percent European ancestry. I'd like to visit the UK someday.
I pray every day that the strong national bond that the US and Great Britain share shall never grow weak. How much I admire the Empire's soldiers in the trenches of the Western Front during the First World War and the outstanding aviators of the Battle of Britain amongst the other great warriors and defenders of freedom that have served through the ages. I dream of the day I get to visit the UK and experience the country and people for myself. Long live Great Britain and long live the United States.

That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is for ever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam,
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

Chilean Hussar Nice word
thomas cochrane He was dismissed from the Royal Navy in 1814 following a controversial conviction for fraud on the Stock Exchange. He helped organise and lead the rebel navies of Chile and Brazil during their respective successful wars of independence through the 1820s. While in charge of the Chilean Navy, Cochrane also contributed to Peruvian Independence through the Freedom Expedition of Perú. He was also asked to help the Greek Navy but was prevented by events from having much impact.
In 1832, he was pardoned by the Crown and reinstated in the Royal Navy with the rank of Rear Admiral of the Blue. After several more promotions, he died in 1860 with the rank of Admiral of the Red, and the honorary title of Rear-Admiral of the United Kingdom.
His life and exploits inspired the naval fiction of 19th- and 20th-century novelists, particularly the figures of C. S. Forester's Horatio Hornblower and Patrick O'Brian's protagonist Jack Aubrey.
Hello friend
and a friendship that should be maintained, up to 5% of Chileans have British ancestry, that every 1 in 20 people

My Wife's Great Great Great Grandfather held General Wolfe in his arms as he lay dying on the plains of Abraham at the battle of Quebec. He is in a famous painting of this event. He was a Colonel in a highland regiment that fought there.
Wow! What pedigree!
john jack at least he was not a racist native killing American who call their country the “land of the free”
Wolfe was beloved by the Highlanders because whilst serving in the British Army he'd refused to murder a wounded Highland soldier after the Battle of Cullodon. His punishment was to be sent to the Highlands, but word of his decency got there before him and he was treated well.

Brits, true Brits never forget their devotion to their country. It is always there in the background. The patriotism hangs in silence, much like the mist upon a green English hill on a British autumnal afternoon. We will always remember our love for our country no matter what evil forces happen to be at play to distract us from this. When the time comes for strength, power and defence of Britain and her ideals we will always be there, ready and waiting to fight and defend the cause. That is what it means to be British, and in the modern era this can get lost in the distance, much like a small flame on a matchstick. But it is still a flame that is still alight, no matter how dim it may seem. All it requires is a tinderbox and once again British people will rise in defence of our nation, and we will defend her against whatever force threatens her. Remember this and remember it always and we will always have a country we recognise and a country we can call Great Britain. Each and everyone one of us has this duty and it is between us and within us that the fabric of this nation exists, and it will exist for generations to come as long as we galvanise the spirit of being in love with ones country and owing to defend her at every opportunity. May god protect us and our country, forever and always.
No matter our race, no matter our ethnicity, no matter our gender, no matter who we are, we are all one people in this country. One country under the Union Jack and the King. We are either part of its history or we plan to be, but we are all its future. We must unite. We must not be divided. We must keep the traitors shut up and we must be bold. The enemy is close outside and deep within. Yet we must be resolute. We must be like Britain herself. Britannia paves the way for how we should act. We must stand against the invaders time and again, like Britain withered under the Blitz. Britain won in the end. We will win in the end. We will win. Because we have our country close to our hearts.
May God Save our Gracious King, my fellow citizen 👑
By the Grace of God, our People and our Country, whom he has continued to bless, help and preserve for thousands of years, will stand firm again through our prayers and His Presence, in the current Storm of evil we face ahead. Our Lord and Our God! They have no power over Him.
They will not prevail!
God Wins!

And brexit has proven to be an evonomical suicide which has destabalised the nation to the edge of splitting up, while the EU is stronger and more united than ever thanks to the war in Ukraine, the corona pandemic and to a limited degree the desaster that brexit proved to be. So there is little to be said about modern Britain except of mockery and jokes, despite all the great things our country has achieved.

i have never respected someone so much over a comment
God bless the British and Anglo Nations they have contributed so much to the world in technology and innovation and culture they shall not be forgotten until the end of humanity and god will decide our fate.
The negative thinking men and women of our fair nation shall never overtake the men women, and children who wake up in the morning with hope in their hearts, and a duty to serve their Queen. For in their eyes and the eyes of others, there is no place for squabbles over religion, economy, race or politics. Simply a solid and eternal pride, that shall never disappear.
God bless the United Kingdom
She may be gone... but many vow to her country.
*God save the Queen.*
I’ve always valued the special relationship between 🇺🇸 and 🇬🇧. I do feel inspired and moved whenever I hear this and many other British patriotic songs.
South Africa 🇿🇦 needs her mother's rule and leadership again for we are lost without her🇬🇧
This made me cry tears of pride and joy to call myself British South African.
Willie Van Wyk You need to fight Communism and stand up for your independence
My prayers to you and our people in SA, my grandmother lived there decades ago during the period of apartheid and she had to flee her farm to save her baby’s life.
@Anglo Commando They're as worse as each other
I still have that hope in my heart that South Africa will again take her proper and rightful place as a Commonwealth Realm.
I stand with you my sacred friend
RIP Prince Philip and God help the Queen and the royal family
What an enchanting piece of music this is.
It really reminds me of all those young men who never would turn back home.
The mothers, who could never brace their son ever again.
The brothers and sisters of theirs, who would never be able to fool around with them anymore.
Gentlemen, let us never forget these young heroes. They may have fought on different sides but in the end, they became brothers. Unified. Lying side by side in mass graves, taking their last march, together, into eternal life.
As a former British soldier it's the only song I want playing at my funeral, am I a "Looney-Left" "Little Englander ?" No, just a loyal Englishman, proud of our heritage and so very proud of the Armed Forces.
not a veteran, not for lack of will. but a man can be a soldier in his heart. and im with you there. in addition to the poem by rupert brookes.
Respect, your a proud man
@@MrJakeolin same here.
God bless England (and GB)
Such a beautiful country. I admire and love the culture and heritage 🇬🇧
Quite breathtaking. The scenes of Churchill's funeral with this playing are I think the most moving thing I've ever seen
I am a Vietnamese and this song pure my soul
