Both anthems tend to be played or sung too slow (especially by those dreadful hockey-game chateuses with all their vocal masturbation).

How about the attempts at crystal glass shattering when they extend the "EEEEEEEE" in "free" when singing the Star Spangled Banner.




A brisk march tempo suits both Advance, Australia Fair and O Canada.


I think O Canada should be sung to the theme music from Hockey Night in Canada.




And The Star Spangled Banner is great, too (also tends to be played too slow)


Ya gotta love an anthem with rockets and bombs!!!
