DRUNK Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Sorry Canadians, but you guys have the worst, most long drawn out, uninspiring national anthem. A torture to listen to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliet Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Good Evening/Bon Soir DrunK: Are you refering to the English or French version?

I just know if was awful to listen to. I think Canada is a great country, although I've never been there. I've heard and read enough to know a bit. But yeah, the anthem is mightily bad.

DRUNK Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Once again shut up No really Babs, your national anthem is horrible. Don't remain in denial. I can help you through this, if it means so much to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babs Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I had edited my post because I don't want to get into it with you but what the fuck are you trying to stir up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRUNK Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I'm not trying to stir anything up. Yeah, everyone has an opinion, right? Most people's opinions are retarded, brainwashed, bullshit. I am not saying that you or the Canadian people's opinions are like that. However, I have very good taste. The anthem, in my mind, is what I have previously described. Sorry.

Babs Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Do you like your anthem DRUNK? If I told you your anthem was horrible and dragged on and on and on and on.....fffttt..would you be pissed .You've served your country.You're patriotic. Nationalistic. How would you feel.I find our anthem kinda catchy.Understated with a quiet dignity. Just like us. I also like your's although it's more like a Vegas review.A bit on the violent side though.

Juliet Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 (edited) Felix Lavalee wrote O Canada.... An interesting story about Felix.. He like many Canadian musicians didn't have much success until he left the country.. Juliet PS I've always seen Felix on the sheet music for O Canada but after doing a Google search on him it turns out his real name is Calixa... PSS There's alot of info about O Canada from the HERITAGE CANADA website. It has both English and French versions as well as more history about the tune... PSSS BABS....I'M PROUD OF YA!!!!!

Back in the days when good Ol' Calixa wrote the Anthem, It was meant as a Patriotic song for the French Canada, but someone stole it from us... So, each time you're singing it, just remember you're singing a Quebecois patriotic song! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliet Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 (edited) Hello: I stayed at home over the weekend and decided to try and watch the hockey game. The Leafs played against the Washington Capitals..SCORE LEAFS 3 CAPITALS 1 Juliet PS I'm trying to educate myself on hockey and how the teams progress to the finals. It's unlikely the Leafs will be in the finals because they are not in the top eight for their division..They are part of the Eastern Division... PSS For their remaining games.......GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!

Juliet Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Hi I: I know the Leafs' days are numbered....you don't have to remind me.. I can still edit my earlier post because I found an error...they are not in the WEST DIVSION...They are part of the EAST.... Juliet PS GO LEAFS GO......NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!
