National Anthem: Pathetic!!!

[Hectic]

Who is that ****ing idiot that sang the National Anthem in the France vs SA game?
It was terrible! It was shocking to say the least!!!
I honestly can't believe it. It was like one of those Idols shows, gone bad!

There is a rugby thread already with many of us expressing humour/disgust at the rendition of the anthem.

 

[Picard]

This was just extensively (albeit not enough) discussed in the other rugby thread.

Question: Who organizes the singing in the 'away country'?

 

[Hectic]

My apologies then, Did not know there was an on going thread regarding this.

Its the French, it probably sounded good to them.

The anthem is a joke, might as well spice it up with some bad singing.

Singer_It_was_beautiful

Toulouse - The reggae singer the Springboks accused of butchering the anthem before the 20-13 Test match defeat to France told AFP Saturday that he thought he had "sung beautifully".

Video: Rasta sings South African anthem

Ras Dumisani, sporting dreadlocks tucked into a huge red, green and white Rastafarian cap, was adamant that his performance - which made large parts of the Toulouse crowd burst into laughter - had been a good one.

"No one told me they were upset with the singing," the Durban native told AFP. "In fact, someone just came up to me and told me how beautifully I had sung."

The South African anthem was sung before France's stirring "Marseillaise" and the singer, backed by two drummers of his Afrikhaya Band, made a mess of the four-language homage to the Rainbow Nation.
