![Green Day Crowd Singing Bohemian Rhapsody [Live in Hyde Park 2017]](/img/n.gif)
I was at this game at Wembley when they played the anthem. I'm pretty sure I heard every Englishman try to sing along to the anthem (even with their butchered pronouciation) in support of the French after the Paris attacks. It was a very very surreal moment. I'll never forget it.
To be honest French-speaking Englishmen are about as frequently encountered as Saudi Rabbis.

I was there. As soon as I heard confirmation that the game was still going to go ahead, I bought 2 tickets for my then 11 year old son and I to go. We wore our England tops and bought French scarves outside of the stadium. The score didn't matter, it was all about standing with our French brothers and sisters.
Will never forget singing La Marseillaise with the rest of the stadium. Goosebumps each time I see the footage now.
Every French face around us belted that anthem out to announce they will never be defeated by the evil that was visited upon them that week in Paris. The emotion had the tears falling down my face as my son looked up at me, piecing it all together.
As an Englishman, it was an honour to be there that day. Vive La France!
That is such a heartwarming comment. We're the same after all. United for peace.
This is why our relationship is so special. God bless your soul, mon ami.
Thank you and i think this was a great move for your 11 son !

Speaking as an Englishman I really love the French! They are the annoying brother in a dysfunctional family. We squabble over trivial issues and convince ourselves we are better then each other.
However when faced with the threat of extremism. We will always be there to help our neighbor, 'the old enemy', our friend across the water.
Our values and beliefs are what joins us. We are free and we are not afraid!

Don't know much about France but that is one bitchin' ass fine song....makes me feel patriotic for them...sing on...Love to France from the U.S.
@Oscar Szwec he made a positive comment and you turned it into something negative. I don't know how calling it a good song is gonna 'americanise' it. Get a grip pal.
@@KissMyFatAxe in france its not a symbol of patriotism its a symbol of freedom from the oppressive rulers. Frensh natinal anthem is respected for its meaning not for what its represent, its not about being proud to belong to that nation because its the people who made that nation, its about their revolution to gain their right,it was never an anthem to glorify france,its completely diffrent from an American understanding of the national anthem, la marseillaise is an official chant since 1795 and majority of frensh dont like when its politicize .
@@skdoremi6666 surely like all music, it should be up to the individual how they respond and feel towards the song. If it makes someone feel patriotic then that's good. If it makes someone feel good about the freedom of France. That's also good. It's not like the dude commented saying it sucked. He appreciated the song for what it was, even if he didn't know the story/history behind it. No need to be so uptight about it. It's a song and it made someone feel good inside. Why's that an issue, just because he's American?

Englishman here. I love our national anthem, but the Marseillaise may be the greatest of all. Of course the English wanted to sing to show their support at such a time - there could never be any doubt about that. Tout homme a deux pays, le sien et puis la France.

Love to all the great people of these nations from an Australian! May your neighbourly love and value for liberty extend to all freedom loving, sovereign individuals worldwide. British values and philosophical zeal for liberty have been a beacon of individual rights and freedom since the Middle Ages. La Marseille is a powerful anthem and has my utmost respect for its overwhelming message and natural opposition to tyranny.
We sing together when we should actually be fighting the same enemies together.
Haven't you seen that scene in Casablanca where the patrons at Rick's shut up the German officers by singing La Marseillaise?
Vive la France! Long live the French Republic!!!! Australia & Australians will always stand shoulder to shoulder with France!

If it was relevant that would mean that French people would say "enough" to mass immigration and unrest since this song calls people to rise againt tyranny.
But no,France and other countries dont carw about anything. They only care about not being called racist.
@@zdrug3676 at the end of the day these 2 + America left these countries with unstable borders, very low economy and still using them for cheap labor and exploiting their recourses so kinda their fault!
Even the rivalry between UK and France today is friendly after all those wars
Actually there wasn't really a rivalry between the UK and France. The rivalry and wars were between England and France. Scotland and France were close and go by the term the 'Auld Alliance' or 'Vieille Alliance'. This is dated back to the 1200's. Many people get annoyed that they class the UK as England and England as the UK. There is also other countries that reside in the UK
@@johnkerr6294 the Auld Alliance was abolished in 1560.
Napoleon: *Interesting!*
the GREAT CLASS OF THE BRITISH PEOPLE ! MERCI BEAUCOUP !
200 years ago these lads were firing at each other, now they're holding their hands. Feels wholesome
Back When English Fans were respectful, unlike the most recent euros...
Well these guys were standing for something rather than kneeling in submission.
respectful when it actually matters, very different from most countries
France or Britain could go to war and you best believe their rival/cousin would be in the trenches with them.
This deserved respect.
how can you say english fans are direspectful now because the actions of the minority? fans in the french league throw bottles at players and invade the pitch, italian fans from rome nearly killed liverpool fan Sean Cox. Every fanbase has a bad minority, this doesnt make the whole group bad fans. How come when its England, all of the sudden the whole fanbase is disrespectful?
Its a small world...this was wonderful to see.So thankful for all those, in acts large and small who everyday live to keep the peace and protect and defend
The wierd thing is.. if someone says who do you hate.. i say the French... but if every country was invaded and i could only save one.. i would save the french.. because they are like the big/little brother of the uk.. no other nation challanged us like the french.. grew a empire like the french. we are two brothers who hate to love each other... thats my views anyway
This happened then we voted for Brexit. It proves to me the British love Europe but hate the EU. The 2 are very different things.
17.4 Mn voters could tell the difference my friend. I am one of them.
@@1chish not quite.Scotland voted to stay.
@@johnfitzpatrick4007 Oh ever so quite. All I said was that 17.4 Mn voters knew the difference which is true. It is also true over 1 Mn Scots voted to leave.
(More than voted for the SNP .... Just saying 😂)
But as you mentioned it t wasn't a regional, county or local village vote. It was a one person / one vote UK referendum. Hence my figure of 17.4 Mn.
Exactly, I love beautiful Europe, but hate the EU.

What was beautiful was that it was trying almost to make it sound like a French home game in Paris. And that was achieved. You would have thought it was the Parc de Paris. Of course we didn't know the words entirely, sometimes sounds are enough.
We stood by the french in two world wars and fought when you couldn’t. Do you think we’d stand down and see you suffer again? No we wouldn’t. As much as we say we hate each other, and our differences are many, England will never turn her back on you.
And from Ukraine, the Diaspora and the Batkivschyna (Fatherland), our Anna of Kyiv became your Queen and we became brothers and sisters....we are with you always. President Poroshenko despite the troubles in the East came to Paris to stand in the front line basically saying..."you want some you have to get through the Zaporozhian Cossacks first!' Vive Le France!
We will forever be united against tyranny. God bless every soul who has perished due to heinous crimes committed against the free-world.
@@iand8365 Long live the cause of freedom.
England and France, for a thousand years have have a relationship that can best be called "murder soulmates."
That is to say "Nobody is allowed to kill you but me."
You guys don’t have that much difference though. If France colonises places and so does England. If England kills native ppl in their land so does france too. But you are right though. You guys stood together destroying ppl’s homes and stealing all their riches from all continents.
Vive la France 🇫🇷

Remember watching this live and though what a hellava nice moment
Amazing
My family visited France throughout the threat and loved every minute. Bandol was excellent and in North we had a great 2 weeks in Calais. Middle we went to Beaujolais We are very similar but divided by language. I wish I could learn it but my own english is influenced by Danish and Anglo Saxon ancestry and it just doesn't roll off the tounge. For the last few Christmases we have put an Eiffel Tower bauble near top of our tree, we will remember them.

Very Moving. La Marseillaise is the most inspiring National Anthem that I know of.
The whole part of the moving act is when the fans first hold up the colours , thats the bit i want to see.
