Talk:God Save the Queen

From Conservapedia

It should also be noted that the tune of 'God Save the Queen' was stolen by some American upstart ( Samuel F. Smith, 1808-1895 I believe), and in doing so subjected her revered and glorious majesty Queen Victoria (God bless her and all who sail in her) to the indignities of Listening to a cheapskate version called "My Country 'tis of thee" sung to HER tune. (The very thought of it makes me shudder) --Felix 09:40, 20 April 2007 (EDT) [[1]]

And I think the Germans nicked the same tune for their own national anthem, until the current one was adopted in the 1930s (by guess who?). Dorpfeld 09:43, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

I do think that there ought to be a reference to this version of | God Save the Queen--Felix 09:47, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

Yes, I agree. Do you want to edit the page? Dorpfeld 09:51, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

No I would prefer you to be the one who gets the ban :P --Felix 09:58, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

We could add it as a disgustingly outrageous example of an egregious and unprovoked attack on the establishment. Dorpfeld 10:00, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

Good Thinking. We could also add that after this Sid left the land of clean living and morality, went to live in a country of depravity where he was seduced into a lifesyle of chemical enhancers and fornication and ultimately got his comeuppance.--Felix 10:05, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

I knew it - this very nice article on God Save the Queen is being mangled. The only two references are to Mycountry 'tis of thee GRRRRR!!!! --Felix 10:29, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

Please feel free to add sources to the "God Save the Queen" portion. Nobody is stopping you, certainly not me. In fact the Library of Congress page has got a lot of God Save the Queen material on it, by all means use it. Dpbsmith 10:38, 20 April 2007 (EDT)
