Shit anthem written to celebrate Scotlands one and only Battlefield victory over the English, they’ve being paying for it ever since lol!
Anthem? It's a modern folk song!
Yep, got to agree they sing better than us, could be the drugs and whiskey.
Flower of Scotland is a terrific anthem and makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.Our dirge is enough to put anyone to sleep and half our team don't appear to know the words either. Why we don't have our own "English" national anthem I have never understood.

I'll tell you a story about the effect that Land Of Hope And Glory has on people. During the Falklands war, I was the LASER operator at Camelots pub in Wood Street, Doncaster. My duties also included selecting the music, so I suppose you could say DJ, but for the fact that there was no mic for talking to the audience!Anyway, there I was sitting in front of the old organ pipes above the bar, and at the end of each night during the Falklands conflict, I signed off with L.O.H.A.G. Now, bearing in mind how young the clientele was on average in the place, the emotional expression on those young faces, and their vocal contributions to the song was a joy to behold, and the intense emotion the song provided has stuck with me since.The only problem was getting the buggers out after it'd finished!
Should be our anthem seeing as though England didn't want Doncaster back.
