i'm canadian but i gotta admit, the u.s. national anthem kicks ass on all others. it's just so perfect at bringing out that feeling of national pride. got any memories to share? any versions that brought out the most emotion in you? i remember back in the 80's, the flames were playing the oilers (nhl) in the playoffs and the oilers coach brought in these two young sisters from california to sing the anthems and the girl who did the us one blew me away, i'll never forget it. i do love the canadian anthem too though. singing it along with 18,000 other hockey fans at a playoff game is quite the experience.

They're both great songs, although I will never be a nationalist of any sort. I know plenty of Americans who like oh canada

When someone tells me they get chills when they hear the US national anthem I tell them they're out of their mind. I think its a total bore. But at least it gives me time to take a leak or buy a beer before a the game starts.

I think that when you're in your country you hear you national anthem a good deal and feel its sub par compared to other countries. For example ive been watching the Euro tournament and I thought Romania's anthem was kick ass( I live in the US)
