    Yes and yes ! If we're talking about Croatian anthem.
    If we're talkin' bout the Bosnian one, I don't think there are even lyrics....Just music.

    Well the "lyrics" of Britain's so-called "National Anthem" just epitomise what a bullshit place Britain is in some ways.

    When its playing at a football match and people stand up, I just sit down.
    What the fuck that German ho has got to do with Britain is beyond me...:mad:
    Fucking garbage....:mad:

    Who wrote it?
    A Tosser?

    OK, I know the first verse and chorus of mine, and I forget who wrote it.

    I did know and I'll kick myself when I look it up.

    I know the first verse, parts of the second, but not the third.
    I do know who wrote it though.

    I actually meant your homeland, but now that you mention it, I do know the Thai national anthem, cos we sing it every morning at assembly before school.

    I've got no idea who wrote it though.

    I think it was probably written by Robert Burns, but the particular song I'm not sure. Wasn't it changed a few years ago, it used to be Flower of Scotland, but they changed it to that Caledonia song.

    *refers to google to check*

    I think the english national anthem was written by the Sex Pistols.

    i know probably about half the lyrics.

    i think i know who wrote it (or at least who is credited with writing it), but there's also a chance i'm thinking of a different song.
