I'd like "Star-Spangled Banner." Beside that, I think Israel and Russia's anthems are pretty good.

France... it is poetic.
Ye sons of France, awake to glory,
Hark, hark, what myriads bid you rise:
Your children, wives and grandsires aging,
See their tears and hear their cries,
See their tears and hear their cries!
Shall hateful tyrants mischief breeding
With hireling Hosts, a ruffian band
Affright and desolate the land,
While peace and liberty lie bleeding?
CHORUS
To arms, to arms, ye brave!
ThMarch on! march on!
All hearts resolved on victory or death.
O sacred love of Francy, undying,
ThThy defenders, death defying,
Fight with Freedom at their side.
Soon they sons shall be victorious
When the banner high is raised;
And they dying enemies, amazed,
Shall behold they triumph, great and glorious.

I really like the Star-Spangled Banner, just because it's really difficult to perform vocally compared to some other anthems. It also has a very stirring message. It's a very fun song to sing, especially for a soprano like me!

I agree with everybody who said France. "La jour de gloire est arrive." The day of glory has arrived! It speaks of pride in the here and now, not bombs bursting in air in 1812 or a flag flying over Ft. McHenry National Monument. The Marine Corps Hym is more inspiring than the national anthem. (So is the William Tell Overture)

Of course as an American I would say "The Star Spangled Banner". In second place is "O Canada".

Probably Borat's version of Khazakhstan's national anthem.

I think that depends on which country they are from. England's anthem is also the tune to our "My Country, tis of Thee." I think most countries anthems are beautiful because they represent their love and devotion toward their country.
