Jan 8, 2012 - I was responding to previous posts about how great socialist composers are. I have visited England/Scotland and have great respect and love. England, as you know it now, will not survive the onslaught of EU socialism and Islam. Like so much other music of English composers in the past, it is inspired by the beautiful countryside and people. It is changing, like it or not. This piece is fantastic, as is most of Williams' work.

Broadsidejohn Says:

Jan 8, 2012 - If wanting to oppose the Stalinsts who want to deconstruct our nations in order to remake it in the communist model is "right wing," then so be it. The Stalinists want to label all criticism as "hate speech," here I am. If English want to to ruled by Emperors in Belgium, fine. If you are English, I wish you good luck with Sharia Law creeping into your justice system. Learn it. Love it. Live it. I was lamenting the passing of the "English" culture. End of political rant. Sorry Angelcynn.

Feb 25, 2012 - @Broadsidejohn @Broadsidejohn @Broadsidejohn AMEN to all that, Broadsidejohn! It is starting to happen in the U.S. also. The more we pander to the ideas of "all-inclusive," and "diversity," we leave ourselves open to the kind of garbage they spread; we pretend that such things as a Muslim killing his daughter for wearing American clothes is forgiveable because it's part of his "religion," etc., etc., we are doomed! Peaceful religion my a**!

Mar 7, 2012 - Wait, what? What America do you live in? In my America, we don't tolerate murder. Anyway, there are extremists in every religion, whether it be Christianity, Islam, or whatever. There's no need to spew unfounded xenophobia.

TheWiscats Says:

Mar 8, 2012 - Not unfounded. It was in the news, and it happened here.

getsuga97 Says:

Mar 8, 2012 - No, I'm saying that because a few Muslims out of billions did something, it's unfounded to say that all Muslims are bad.

TheWiscats Says:

Mar 9, 2012 - I didn't say that either. You obviously are looking for things to be said against ALL Muslims and, not finding it, you pretend you have anyway. That was AN example, albeit a true one. Enough already!

getsuga97 Says:

Mar 9, 2012 - Let me quote you one second: "Peaceful religion my a**!" Oh, what is that? Oh, right, that's an attack against *all* Muslims.

Mar 19, 2012 - all of you shut up and LISEN TO THE MUSIC

TheMimzee Says:

Apr 2, 2012 - Well put. It's all about the music, and this is my favorite Vaughn Williams piece.

Ghettobnzie1 Says:

Apr 9, 2012 - We could continue arguing, or...hear me out now...we could simply enjoy the music.

Alternatevil Says:

Apr 17, 2012 - I always loved this song, and I always loved England. I am not even English, but if there is any song that summarizes my feelings towards it, it would be this one.

Apr 18, 2012 - I hear this is England's favorite song. In a few more decades, England's new favorite song will be some Bollywood crap, or a Muslim prayer chant.

Apr 22, 2012 - Honestly, what is that even supposed to mean?

ngl31186 Says:

Apr 24, 2012 - It means that in a few more decades, England will be more Indian or Muslim than British.

May 7, 2012 - I heard this and I never recovered from it

May 23, 2012 - this is a beautiful peice of music. wether in original as here or by david crowder or anyone else. the coments here are relevent, and if youd like a great englishmans take on the issue , you need look no further than the scouring of the shire , near the end of vol 3 (book 6) of the lord of the Rings.
