My Great Grandfather was killed by the Germans in North Africa, leaving my grandmother and her brother without a father as small children. I was mostly raised by my grandparents due to family issues, so I grew up with a very passionate hatred for Germany and for Japan... Especially Japan, actually. I visited Germany in 2019 and had my world views turned upside down. Germany is a beautiful country with beautiful people, some of the kindest people I have yet seen on my travels. Lovely hospitality and a fascinating nation. I felt embarrassed for my prior views on the German people, for I now see that a people can make amends for their mistakes in the past. I have not yet been to Japan, and I admit that I do still feel a deep anger towards Japan, but I know that if I am to overcome this I must visit the country and see the people. Update: I don't know how I ended up back here again, I forgot that I even made this comment, but now I'm dating a Japanese girl and have been to Japan. I really liked it, so, I'm on a redemption arc I guess
The Germans at that time were 90% evil people. The Germans today are 10% evil people. That we are the way we are today, we have to thank the USA, Britain and France.
All the best to Germany - studying German in Köln at the university as part of a year abroad for my languages degree (1983) after many school trips to Krefeld and Düsseldorf, and working at a fruit and veg factory in Sesen in the Harz mountains for Sonnen-Bassermann to earn summer money in 1979 - I have loved Germany and all things German for many many years. I’m so sad we lost our connection with Brexit but I’ll always be loyal to my European roots and experiences. God bless from England
A spiritually moving sound that rises above human tragedies with the impetus of the greatest of human compassion. Thank you Hayden for your music . Thank you Germany for being the motherland of great people that added so much to the wealth of European culture.We share the sadness of the many tragedies that have fallen on the people this great nation.

Europe will not forget and will not forgive that Germany did not want to help Ukraine and wanted to have buisnesses with Russia. You are ugly. All you wanted was blood of ukrainian children in your Nord Stream pipe lines from Russia. At the begining of the war Germans told Ukrainian Ambasador that Germany will not help Ukraine. Ukraine will exist maybe hours and thats the end of this country. I am European. I wanted to forgive Germany Hitler's crimes but what you did in 2022... hahaha. While Poland was giving to Ukraine 250 tanks you wanted to give 5000 helmets. I hate you. But dont worry. Eastern Europe knows now that we can count on each other and not on Germany. You lost everything Germany. Nobody will accept no more your hegemony in Europe. You are traitors.
Und die Melodie unserer Nationalhymne war mal die Melodie der österreichischen Kaiserhymne (Gott erhalte, Gott beschütze...) und stammt von Österreichs großem Komponisten Joseph Hayden. Tja, tausend Jahre gemeinsame Geschichte hinterlassen Spuren.

Always reminds me of my childhood when I watched F1 with my dad. Michael Schumacher if you read this, I wish you all the best and thanks for the memories ❤️ Br, A young (now old) Mika Häkkinen fan from Finland
Hyden composed with angels at he's side! It & this unique orchestral version represents so well a beautyful Germany..free,open & together..mindful of this country & it's people who has been through so much toil ,& dam hard work!!..this is a masterpiece of a national anthem.Warm wishes Germany.John Ireland.
Only someone who was fortunate enough to have lived consciously during his reign can truly appreciate what a great politician we have lost in this man. The best German head of government of the 20th century. He will be missed forever and we should all measure by him who come after...
I was a teen back then, today I know whom we have lost. Having understood to some extent what it meant to have survived the war and having to build a new society and a new country I now see what men of high calibre many of them were whether it be Helmut Schmidt, Franz-Josef Strauß, Hans-Dietrich Genscher etc.
The melody was composed by Haydn, and used by him twice: first, as a hymn to the Emperor and second, as the principal melody in his Emperor string quartet, No 62, and both in 1797.
A hymn sort of, but really it was conceived as a national anthem. Haydn spent much of the period 1791/92 and 1794/95 in England and heard God Save the King often and had noted the impact, so on his return, he wrote Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser for his own country (the Habsburg Empire or Austria if you like); it’s appropriation by Germany came later. The new Emperor’s song was an immediate hit, so as you say, he used it as the theme for a lovely set of variations in the string quartet Opus 76 No 3.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 an excellent comment, and thank you for it. a Canadian, I think of 'God Save the Queen' as a hymn more than as an anthem, for example (we have 'O Canada' for the latter purpose). given Haydn's bi-national purposes, perhaps he conceived it the same way. again, thanks
@@charlesbarber8166 Not sure I’ve understood your point: God Save the King is clearly a national anthem, as is Gott erhalte and the national anthem every other nation - they are not hymns.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 Hi Elaine. Thank you for yours. To me, a hymn honours a person or a god, and an anthem a nation or a trans-national entity. When I was growing up, we sang two such songs, in this order: God Save The Queen (Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada), immediately followed by O Canada, an apostrophe to the nation as a whole. I'm sure others see the matter differently, and fair enough. Best wishes.
The music comes from the second movement of that Emperor Quartet. It's actually a theme and variations movement, and this is the main theme. Haydn originally wrote it in G Major, but it is most often sung in Eb Major.
Sung so beautifully, the German national anthem is more like a hymn than some of the cankerous worlds national anthems… 🇩🇪 heart❤

Germany is a beautiful country
hi from France 🇫🇷 ❤ 🇩🇪
The violins are amazing in this performance.
My Great Grandfather was killed by the Germans in North Africa, leaving my grandmother and her brother without a father as small children. I was mostly raised by my grandparents due to family issues, so I grew up with a very passionate hatred for Germany and for Japan... Especially Japan, actually.
I visited Germany in 2019 and had my world views turned upside down. Germany is a beautiful country with beautiful people, some of the kindest people I have yet seen on my travels. Lovely hospitality and a fascinating nation. I felt embarrassed for my prior views on the German people, for I now see that a people can make amends for their mistakes in the past.
I have not yet been to Japan, and I admit that I do still feel a deep anger towards Japan, but I know that if I am to overcome this I must visit the country and see the people.
Update: I don't know how I ended up back here again, I forgot that I even made this comment, but now I'm dating a Japanese girl and have been to Japan. I really liked it, so, I'm on a redemption arc I guess
Many germans were also killed by american soldiers. It was a war. So it is normal that people die in wars...
@@Sommmerblond The yanks didn't start it though, that's where I was coming from.
The Germans at that time were 90% evil people. The Germans today are 10% evil people. That we are the way we are today, we have to thank the USA, Britain and France.
I feel you man. It's not the people, it's fascist dictators like H*tler who ruined the image of the beautiful country of Germany.
Now extrapolate your tendency to everyone, and you get a sense of why human history has played out as it has.
Beautiful anthem, beautiful people, beautiful country ❤️
Glory to Germany from Ukraine 🇩🇪🇺🇦
Glory to Ukraine from Germany
thx man
All the best to Germany - studying German in Köln at the university as part of a year abroad for my languages degree (1983) after many school trips to Krefeld and Düsseldorf, and working at a fruit and veg factory in Sesen in the Harz mountains for Sonnen-Bassermann to earn summer money in 1979 - I have loved Germany and all things German for many many years. I’m so sad we lost our connection with Brexit but I’ll always be loyal to my European roots and experiences. God bless from England
The Brexit was very odd to us, but we are so close when it comes to the people, that there will always be a connection.
Möge Helmut in Frieden bei unserem Schöpfer ruhen🙏❤️ Für Gott, Familie und Vaterland☝️☦️
Long live Germany 🇩🇪 love from UK 🇬🇧

A spiritually moving sound that rises above human tragedies with the impetus of the greatest of human compassion. Thank you Hayden for your music . Thank you Germany for being the motherland of great people that added so much to the wealth of European culture.We share the sadness of the many tragedies that have fallen on the people this great nation. From Italy, with respect and LOVE ❤
Most countries in Europe share so much history. Good or bad, it connects us all and should be cherished.
@@StrongKickMan Fully agree with you. We share all in miseries and greatness. We have millenniums of shared experience. We are travellers on a common boat going through calm and at times troubled waters. We share the same destiny and we must work together to make that boat travel safely and peacefully toward our common destiny,
Ach was ein wunderschönes Gefühl. Vielen Dank.
Brings tears to my eyes. My maternal family is from the Black Forest area. I have a Daughter-in-law from Heilbronn. Germany is a wonderful country!

One of the most beautiful anthems in the world. Superb rendition.
Fantastic version of a fantastic anthem! Let our friendship live on forever.
Greeting from your small western neighbor 🇳🇱❤️🇩🇪
Europe will not forget and will not forgive that Germany did not want to help Ukraine and wanted to have buisnesses with Russia.
You are ugly. All you wanted was blood of ukrainian children in your Nord Stream pipe lines from Russia.
At the begining of the war Germans told Ukrainian Ambasador that Germany will not help Ukraine. Ukraine will exist maybe hours and thats the end of this country. I am European. I wanted to forgive Germany Hitler's crimes but what you did in 2022... hahaha. While Poland was giving to Ukraine 250 tanks you wanted to give 5000 helmets. I hate you. But dont worry. Eastern Europe knows now that we can count on each other and not on Germany. You lost everything Germany. Nobody will accept no more your hegemony in Europe. You are traitors.
Your country may be small, but you are GREAT (and tall), our dear swamp brothers! 🇩🇪❤️🇳🇱
@@hape3862 Brüder für immer. 🇳🇱❤🇩🇪

This is really the best version. Impressive performance! I want to say hello to all my friends with German background in Scotland.

It & this unique orchestral version represents so well a beautyful Germany..free,open & together..mindful of this country & it's people who has been through so much toil ,& dam hard work!!..this is a masterpiece of a national anthem.Warm wishes Germany.John Ireland.
Words are different - BUT - It is in fact the same tune as "God Save the Queen" - Listen carefully. Cheers, Colonel Jack
Only someone who was fortunate enough to have lived consciously during his reign can truly appreciate what a great politician we have lost in this man. The best German head of government of the 20th century. He will be missed forever and we should all measure by him who come after...
@@markvms4377 no
@@hannovonbahrenfeld5986 yes
I was a teen back then, today I know whom we have lost. Having understood to some extent what it meant to have survived the war and having to build a new society and a new country I now see what men of high calibre many of them were whether it be Helmut Schmidt, Franz-Josef Strauß, Hans-Dietrich Genscher etc.
@@markvms4377 I'm sorry ....??!?
@@theoderich1168 you dont know who adolf h is? Google lol
The melody was composed by Haydn, and used by him twice: first, as a hymn to the Emperor and second, as the principal melody in his Emperor string quartet, No 62, and both in 1797.
A hymn sort of, but really it was conceived as a national anthem.
Haydn spent much of the period 1791/92 and 1794/95 in England and heard God Save the King often and had noted the impact, so on his return, he wrote Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser for his own country (the Habsburg Empire or Austria if you like); it’s appropriation by Germany came later.
The new Emperor’s song was an immediate hit, so as you say, he used it as the theme for a lovely set of variations in the string quartet Opus 76 No 3.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 an excellent comment, and thank you for it. a Canadian, I think of 'God Save the Queen' as a hymn more than as an anthem, for example (we have 'O Canada' for the latter purpose). given Haydn's bi-national purposes, perhaps he conceived it the same way. again, thanks
@@charlesbarber8166
Not sure I’ve understood your point: God Save the King is clearly a national anthem, as is Gott erhalte and the national anthem every other nation - they are not hymns.
@@elaineblackhurst1509 Hi Elaine. Thank you for yours. To me, a hymn honours a person or a god, and an anthem a nation or a trans-national entity. When I was growing up, we sang two such songs, in this order: God Save The Queen (Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada), immediately followed by O Canada, an apostrophe to the nation as a whole. I'm sure others see the matter differently, and fair enough. Best wishes.
The music comes from the second movement of that Emperor Quartet. It's actually a theme and variations movement, and this is the main theme. Haydn originally wrote it in G Major, but it is most often sung in Eb Major.
Beautiful anthem preformed.
Liebe aus Russland! 🇷🇺
German made anything is great, let alone their anthem. So moving, this music. Nothing short of perfection.
Blüh' im Glanze dieses Glückes,
blühe, deutsches Vaterland!
