'National Anthem ... was written in English' ... no it was not, it was written in french, the lyrics are not even translated, later quite different english lyrics were made to fit the tune

'should be sung word for word the way it was written' - hah, good luck doing that, you'll be singing about the cross and the sword wif a frog in yer froat, lol

Haven't we been through this ... yes - Message 24091894

If you want an anthem originated in english, try God Save the Queen, The Maple Leaf Forever, or Oi've Got A Luvverly Bunch O' Coconuts
