Comments: Change it, for goodness sake!

Title

Change it, for goodness sake! 

Body

Definitely change it.  I would rather change the British National Anthem from 'God Save the Queen' to something like 'Jerusalem' or 'I Vow to thee my Country', a song with more flare, than recreate and entirely new 'English' National Anthem.  Look at les Marseillaises, the french national anthem.  I'm not even French, but I feel pride...BUT I'M NOT EVEN FRENCH!

It is an amazing song, which can't be out done.

We should change it to a song which already has some history, than compose an entirely new one.

Main candidates in my opinion:

1. I Vow to thee My Country
2. Jerusalem
3. Land of Hope and Glory
4. God is our Strength and Refuge (Dambusters)

God forbid the government should commission a new ''Politically Correct'' hymn.

And lastly, how on earth do we actually GET the thing CHANGED?
