Not sure it‘s the best singing ever, but it‘s very virile and martial. Kind of what you what you want to hear as a last solace, the moment before Russian nukes hit London and Paris.
The “Doomsday video” at CNN – meant for this occasion, in the Cold War, ended with Nearer my God, to Thee, performed by US military musicians.
Why, do you have plans to attack Russia? Russia has no first-strike nuclear policy, unlike the US.
Well, no. Uniformly loud, beaty, unphrased.
It seemed to be sung with respect, which is really the most important thing. And the whole idea of singing the words is rather respectful, given France ditched their monarchy — just as easy to have offered an instrumental version. I think Sir Keir was rather caught off guard.
Followed by a viola player….Strangling a cat……
Putain, ils sont meilleurs que les Britanniques !
