I doubt it, because the tune for Maamme was somposed by a German. The origin of God Save The King/Queen is unknown but it's also used as the royal (not national) anthem in Norway...the royalty there are also descended from Queen Victoria.Originally posted by Quincey:Hmm, Finland and Estonia being Blatic State prob share a common heritage, thus the similar anthemn. As for England, prob Charles' great great grand aunt or some relative of his was the wife of the Duke of Liecheteinstein. Haha, these European royals, they're all inter-related someway or another. -

Isn't China's anthem "March of the Volunteers" or something like that.Originally posted by Texcoco II:Anyone here appreciate this kind of music? I like UK "God save the queen", China's "long march" ,Italy's "Fratelli d'Italia" and finally Soviet Union's "Gimn Sovetskogo Soyuza"
What impressed me about China's anthem was during Athens Olympics Closing Ceremony, when they handover each country sing their anthems.
Greek's anthem was like slow and soft... when it came to china.... they sang it with pride and gusto, full of energy... makes ppl wake up.
just like their first words of the anthem. haha. -
The military band version of Majullah Singapura is damn nice, easier to sing somemore.Originally posted by Quincey:I don't see Majullah Singapura mentioned! I thought the rendition played two SEA games ago was the best I've heard. -
The ARRahman's one is commercialised remake. But only that song Vande Mataram is in it.. The rest of the songs in the CD are ARRahman's original compositions.Ya, he just remaked the Vande Mataram... Not bad that one.Originally posted by Kuali Baba:Tagore's original is still better.
