Can you sing your national anthem from memory?

@evan ... but I may have lost some of the French lyrics by now.

[johnefrancis@cosocial.ca]

@evan yes, but I'm not great on nailing the recent edits in the French version.

@evan I can sing the US's badly, but I don't know the Uruguay one.

[evan@cosocial.ca]

@BathysphereHat I bet there is a formal one and an informal one that's much more fun.

@evan this would be interesting as a
- Yes + I'm from the USA
- Yes + I'm not from the USA
- No + I'm from the USA
- No + I'm not from the USA

to see how many of the "yes"es are just that one country that puts a lot of value in its PR. North Korea would be interesting for similar reasons but probably not many respondents on Mastodon 😁

@luc do it!

Thanks all. I'm a Yes, But. I can sing the anthem of the country I grew up in, and I can sing the anthem of the country I live in, mostly, in English, and kind of, in French. I can kind of sing the royal anthem in English, and not in French. (Canada has a lot of anthems.) I like singing the chorus of "Gens du Pays", especially for birthdays.
