British Royalist Song - The King is still in London

- The King is still in London is a British song dating from the Second World War, written by Benjamin Baruch Ambrose. It celebrates King George VI’s decision to stay in London during the Blitz, remaining alongside the people to suffer the consequences of fierce German bombing.

At the height of the Blitz Queen Elizabeth (The Queen
Mother) was advised by the Government about evaluating her daughters to the Dominion of Canada (Where the Dutch Royals spent time) and herself out of the city
She replied
"The children won't go without me. I won't leave the King. And the King will never leave."
Adolf Hitler called her "The most dangerous woman in Europe"
The children won't leave without me, I won't leave without the King, and the King will never leave.
- Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother -
It's true again once more the King is in London.
Unfortunately
Gotta be here when WW3 starts and Charlie hopefully decides to remain in London despite missile strikes... if the Russians will be able to get past NATO anti-missile defences.
@@deaded5040 potato nationalist?🤔🤣
@@angloturbo7137 he's obviously an anti-monarchy type who's looking to stir up trouble in the comments section, but you could've just said Irish nationalist instead of potato nationalist
@@JamesSmith-sc9buA joke but good point
He was 'not only still in London', He stood firm by His people, when London was bombarded by German V1 and V2 missiles and Buckingham Palace was heavily damaged during the raids.
King George VI for me is one of the best kings that the United Kingdom has ever had, he lived through everything, the First World War, The abdication of his brother, the Second World War. And he always stood firm before everything... Too bad he died very young, he could have done more for the country
God save The King!
George 4, 5, 3, 1? Which one. Cause I agreee.
VI probably
@@OP-O1 George IV will not be missed and George I was meh, the minute he arrived in England the power of the king diminished and passed to the Prime Minister
George V is the best in my opinion, brought our empire to its peak 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@Scribbles_Real i wouldnt say the best, but he's definitely up there, handled ww1 like a champ
I've never heard this song before. Nice find, and good video as always!
Thank you very much, means a tremendous amount!
Actually that song from a show called the dads army.
@@isyraf9989 It was reused in Dad’s Army but dates from WW2.
i knew i would find you on a channel like this
@@MonarchistMusic That George VI stayed in London during the Blitz reinvigorated people's faith in the British Monarchy, and with King Charles III, it seems that the monarchy isn't going anywhere.
His eldest daughter made him proud!! Now they rest together at Windsor. Well-deserved. God Save the (new) King!!
George VI was a good man, and he could have done so much more for his country had he not died so early...
Absolutely, his death was tragic and too soon. One of Britain’s truly great kings
Or he was just lucky to live during 2nd WW
@@kaiserjager2754 what?
@@MonarchistMusic But his daughter was even greater. She became not only Britain's most-beloved monarch (take that, Queen Victoria), not only Britain's longest-reigning monarch, but the world's longest-reigning female monarch, longest-reigning adult monarch, and the second-longest-reigning monarch in history (Louis XIV reigned for 72 years, she ruled for only 70). She had some of the heaviest burdens to bear (Britain joined the EU and left the EU during her reign). Now, her son, who is unloved by the people, has the burden to bear in order to regain what his mother had lost. Nobody loved Charles III. The good news is, he's very old, and his reign will be short. Everybody loves Prince William. He has no popularity problems. So when he becomes King William V, he will be the greatest King Britain has ever had since George VI.
@@mikeor- I am great full to Charlies the third because he founded the Duchy collage in my native West country
Oh God Save our Noble Monarchy, let the drums play and sing with the trumpets in the name of the Glorious Nation!
POV: the king is still in London
Long live the King George VI!!!!!🏰🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧👑
God save the King
God bless the Empire 🇫🇮❤️🇬🇧🇧🇲🇳🇿🇳🇿
For King and Country!!!! 🇬🇧
This is a really old song, Classic music. God Bless the UK
First heard this on Dad's Army
Love it. His sacrifice to duty is one we all need(thankfully have in his daughter)
God save king George VI! He was a good man👑👑🇬🇧🇬🇧
Indeed, God save the King!
God Save The King. Long Live The King.
For Majesty and Country.
also a freemason btw
He's a good man now too
one of the greatest monarchs in modern history
God bless George VI. in heaven. And god bless all british and all monarchists.
As an American, this feels like a British version of the "Every Man A King" song for Huey Long. Both give me this weird but wistful feeling, as if peering into an another timeline, wondering what could have been...
요즘 같은 시대에 더 많은 군주주의자들이 필요합니다!
More are becoming so day by day, maybe not in UK but many people all over the world view it as a legitimate and reasonable form of government that may be better for some places than a full on republic.
The right man in the wrong place can make a huge difference , that describes George VI perfectly.
The Republican group in ,UK should see this and understand that it was King and the Monarchy that saved Britain and the free world today amd how important Monarchies are than pathetic republics , love and salute from India 🇮🇳🇬🇧
How did the Saxe-Coburg-Gotha clan save Britain???
@@hughzapretti-boyden9187 rebranding for one thing. They disassociated with their German heritage for their love for Britain, under the House of Windsor.
@@nicoville20 you're an american, you know nothing about British history, only the revisionist history america constantly rewrites. Rebranding, don't make me laugh. I would enlighten you to British historical facts but being an american I'd only be wasting my time.
@@hughzapretti-boyden9187 God save the King
@@nicoville20it wasn't for that. It was just because of the war going on at the time
HES BACK!
Long live the king
God bless British Royal Family
AMEN!!!!!
Nice one. Good old times.
God save the King
Long live King George VI!
Long live future King Charles III!
Future King Charles III...
Hehehe.. nice joke)
@Ignem Veni Mittere are you serious....
What is really your point
@Ignem Veni Mittere, are you loyal to the Scots or something? That bollocks is only said by maddened Scotsmen!
@@glasscardproductions4736 ya know there weren’t non-Scottish Jacobites?
@@globe0147, and what's your point with that statement, assuming you did write exactly what you meant.
How much I love this song! I remember playing and singing it so many times when I was in the capital of United Kingdom. One moment was especially memorable - when I went to see the Buckingham Palace. But despite the fact that the sentries were dressed in red, Union Jack was waving and it was during the reign of Elisabeth II, I found the song fitting perfectly for the moment. Now whenever I listen, I remember these great days
Do you know more songs like this? Songs which gives this nice tune of England and London :)
That's a really well made video!
And his eldest daughter has done a splendid job carrying on the work! Long live Britain and the Crown!!
Nice Video 👍
Thank you!
If WW3 happened would it be the Queen is still in London?
Well if she remained in London yes, hopefully such a song won’t be necessary though
@@MonarchistMusic And maybe even change By Order of the King to By Order of the Queen
@@MonarchistMusic Maybe make it just incase
I think that Chuck 3 would remain in London.
God save the King!
Interesting timing
Fun fact: Today is Sultan Hasanal Bolkiah of #brunei Birthday! #daulattuanku ! Daulat Kebawah Duli Tuan Patik
Happy birthday to the Sultan!
There's not much fun about the Sultan's rule.
God save King Charles III 🇬🇧
as king of italy i say ITALIA LOVES U ENGLITERRA 🏴🇮🇹
Very nice mate! Never came across this one
Aye, it’s a brilliant little gem from the war
Brilliant ❤
What a brilliant song.
If this wasn’t part of the Dad’s Army soundtrack,it should’ve been
*GOD SAVE THE KING!*
#CharlesIII
visited Windsor Castle last year with my dad
Try to Imagine the mess Edward would have made of it!
Seems fitting once again now in 2022 after King Charles 3rd just returned to London from Balmoral after the death of the Queen 😁🇬🇧
He can barely be called a king he is a disgrace to our glorious country and parliamentary monarchy.
(^Forgetting the fact parliament nor the monarch have a legitimate say in the running of the country which isn't all that much of a bad thing.)
@@britainman3459 based my dude

Love hearing this tune! Who performed it?
*His Majesty King George VI the last king of British Raj(India,Pakistan and Bangladesh)*

I believe it may well be yes
Should it be
"The Queen is still in London"
This was in WW2 so no it was the king back then
Oh my bad
@@MarshallRedmon01 we don't want a "queen is still in London" again, right?
Coz the song is a war song
*Now* this song can be played
Take that, Lord haha! 😉

King George 6 was the best king of all time
Please write lyrics.
Me after I played a Heavy Metal song with the name long live the king
Where did you get this recording?
Rule Britannia.
That's Not very kind of you!!

Thanks.
Winston wasn’t
I’ve been presented with two options, Catholic socialists or Protestant monarchists.
I'll take Orthodox Tzar
I'd prefer the Catholic option. Better socialist than a heretic
Don't know where you are but I am a Catholic monarchist .
Seems awfully relevant to 2020 (though I do not know whether the Queen stayed in London).
There was nothing that happened in 2020 even halfway close to WWII
The government demanded she live in Buckingham palace instead of her home with Philip, which she really couldn’t say no to. Nowadays the British let the King live where he wants, he just has his offices in the palace. I think that’s better to be fair, who on earth would want to live in that grey rectangle surrounded by gates that caters mostly to tourists.
From the days when our leaders knew how to lead.
ah yes, those were the days, eh, what!
Hello
That music sounds like Tom & Jerry BGM 😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Because it's supposed to raise morale and bring enjoyment.
Christian X was the best wartime monarch
Yeah. And now look at London. A shame...
He was better than Lizzie II. Go on, it's true. Just admit it

Ha,ha,i can't wait to be king at anytime now who is gonna support me??
As someone from the west country I must say it's fine if the bugger stays in London as long as he doesn't leave the vile place and minds his own business
@EatCommunists Well I think everyone outside of somerset would agree on that one
I don't see that this is a particularly "royalist" tune, other than in the general context at that time, people were usually royalist.
This song was a direct response to Nazi propaganda during the Blitz: you poor Brits have to suffer the bombs while your king is living it up somewhere out in the country.
The king certainly appeared in London from time to time, but whether he spent all his time there, who knows?

2024. King is still in Londonistan.
The King is still in London is what people were lead to believe but documents now show that the Royal Family left London every evening for the safety of Windsor and returned the next morning.
Do you have any idea of the geography of the London area? Windsor is just up the Thames and was bombed. Probably in error or by German bombers dropping their payload before returning to France. And anyway, it was important that Hitler did not score a major propaganda victory by killing members of the Royal Family
Isn't Windsor still in greater london though? I feel like it is.
long live a british republic
GOD SAVE THE KING
Cringe Republican.
God save the King!
