yeah, I seriously doubt even half the Dutch parliament and cabinet know the Wilhelmus... But the EU themesong they can all sing along to of course, the traitors.
Not “their” blood but that of the people, actually, this has to do with the origins of the anthem: a revolution of the people against the elites, it’s a way of saying that the people is ready to commit sacrifice for the sake of the community (feed the soil to fertilize it).
More precisely: "Let an impure blood water our furrows". BTW: Nobles were supposed to be of pure blood, unlike the vast majority of the people who had to fight 8 countries right after the Revolution started - hence the reference to the 'impure' when speaking of the very French citizens going to war.
Le Marseillaise is one of the most powerful anthems. They were singing so somberly, and it sounds reverential. When its sung heartily, it sounds triumphant.
The french anthem is actually pretty special. It was never composed to be an anthem. But a war song. It bears a heavy History and symbolism. That is why one of the top song for supporters during World Cups is... the national anthem, which ehoes all throughout the stadium during games.

Second the person who started it is actually doing something in line with what happens in military ceremonies were the minute of silence or the specific tune played for the dead in the French army is always ended by the national anthem (maybe as a note of hope, looking at the future).
Every time I watch this my heart beats faster.
True. Watched it a couple of times now and it's still great. The meaning of the text fits perfectly in the context
That not quite the minute of silence, but beautiful anyway.
Amazing. Love from 🇵🇹❤️
