GUEST,An English Patriot A national anthem for England (174* d) A national anthem for England 23 Mar 04

With St George's Day looming on the horizon and English identity being on the agenda, isn't it about time that we started thinking about a national anthem? My own choice would be Blake's Jerusalem. It gives both a positive view of our past (a tad romantic and not quite accurate-Did Jesus really walk on England's soil?)and a hopeful view of the future. It also has a nice tune. I like it better than Flower of Scotland, and that's a damn fine song.
