    I would have liked to have seen the expression on the kids' faces when they realized he was singing the American national anthem!

    An irony that the melody they base their anthem on is a British gentlemen's club which effectively encapsulates the very people they sought to escape from

    Bit creepy singing a song that speaks of entwining Bacchus vine in the myrtle of Venus to children.

    John Stafford Smith wrote that melody, and it was reused for the American National Anthem The Star-Spangled Banner.

      Thanks very much for mentioning that Carly. I forgot to credit Mr. Smith when I spoke, and when I posted this.

      To Entwine: in the asymmetric sense, one thing wrapped around another, such as a vine wrapped around a tree
      "A tree with a vine entwined"
