And just remember to correct everyone. Any time they say “Annex” what they really mean is “Invade”.
As a real American I salute my fellow Canadians. Well said and sung, and GG.
She sung it, we won it, Fuck America.
Astonishing that I learn about the anthems sung before the game before I even learn who won the game.
The people at the game also heard the anthem before they knew who won.
While I think that's a great move of defiance... "that only us command" is grammatically incorrect, should be we, no?
"in all of us command" works because the love is commanded in us.
I'll take it. The sentiment was solid.
This was such a gross version, it was like she never sung it before.
I agree , the US fans started booing and finally when the Canadian fans singing along started being louder than the boos she started doing all sorts of weird pitch stuff and drawing out words like I've never heard before. Would have been way more powerful to let the crowd get into singing it with her drowning out the boos in the other countries stadium.
You got a lot of downvotes but I thought the same thing. Off key left and right. Appreciate her attempt though.
I mean...she's in a fascist country singing a protest version of an Anthem for a country that said fascist country wants to take over while thousands of people booed her. What you saw were nerves. She was shaky. I assume she's a fine singer but as a vocalist myself, I can hear when someone's nerves are getting too them. Incredible that she even went through with it.
Hear hear. Chantal's got more intestinal fortitude than most of us could ever claim to have.
Ya that's fair. I was surprised they had the Canadian flag in the stadium at all
