Your Top 3 Favourite National Anthems


Recommended Posts

Gold: :RUS - the Soviet is better.

 

Silver: :KAZ - Epic. When I think of power I think of this anthem.

 

Bronze: :RSA - Beautiful medley of languages. Its "twin anthem" of :ZAM is not as good.

 

 

Special mentions: :NEP :GRE

 

Also, as mentioned above :GDR is fantastic.

Gold - :RUS Definitely a masterpiece

 

Silver - :RSA Switching languages has never been more fun

 

Bronze - :UKR I really love the line "our enemy will vanish like dew under the sun" (I used it as my bio on my social media accounts)

 

Special mentions: :NEP   :TKM

Since I’m not very good with tables, I’m going to wait few days to publish the medal table.

Silver - :NED

Bronze - :JPN

Please choose another Gold Medalist. East Germany does not satisfy the requirements (you can leave as gold, but choose another one as well please)

But why exactly? That's so arbitrary. :wacko:

Gold : Russia 

Silver :Brazil

Bronze : Italia

 

Special mentions :  Algeria , Irak ,France  

 

 

Worst : national anthem  who glorifies something else besides the nation (like the King...)  :ENG :MAR :KSA .....

:ENG doesn't have an official anthem nor does it have an NOC. The closest thing to an anthem is probably "Jerusalem" which is a call for social justice and doesn't glorify anything apart perhaps from the English countryside.

1/ :RUS

 

2/:RSA

 

3/:FRA

 

However, if it were not for the restrictions I would go for :WAL which manages to be both beautiful and stirring and always brings a tear to my eye even though I am not from that country. Like a number of others I also have a soft spot for :GDR despite what it represents.

I’m going to have a commonwealth themed one in 2021 or 2022 to celebrate the games. :WAL can get chosen then. I quite like “Jerusalem” by the way. Scotland’s got an odd song they use too.

Because this is a celebration of Olympic anthems. East Germany doesn’t exist and they don’t have a current NOC. If the anthem is the same as current Germany, I can except it.

    • because of schedule , after 1 month of fasting , Things could be better for africans 2 weeks later 
    • Always a 6 week lull between the end of the full Winter Sports season and the Summer Sports season gets going in early May.  OK, there is stuff going on, but not three or four things a weekend.
    • Only a few Ethiopians, hardly any Kenyans, no Ugandans.....
    • LOL worst results for  Africa  , 2 bronze only  in triple jump men/women ...nothing in middle distances , strange 
    • NHL? European hockey? (it's already playoffs time!) MLB? (and KBO + NPB) March madness? Handball champions league? 2026 soccer world cup last chance playoffs? Fencing world cup? some Golf rather than Motorsports? and I'm sure I'm missing a lot   
    • @Josh Any chance this  team replaces the Tirinzoni/Paetz rink for the next OG? 
    • Honestly, I think you guys have a much better chance of success here than we do. It's already difficult to maintain this sport, and with this ridiculous format this year, things have gotten even worse. Years and years participating in the elite and we haven't been able to evolve; it was just a waste.
    • Ski Cross WC Craigleith     Men Gold- Federico Tomasoni Silver-  Kaleb Barnum Bronze-  Kristofor Mahler   First career WC podium for Barnum!    Women Gold-  Sandra Naeslund Silver-  Marielle Berger Sabbatel Bronze-  Fanny Smith   Full Results
    • Another weak result for our athletics team, which is typical; without Caio or Alisson, our chances of a medal in any high-level tournament are almost zero.   However, Juliana's result in the women's pole vault was a great 7th place. She is improving rapidly and still has a lot of room for growth.
