    The United Kingdom has. Although I have always been a fan of the Chilean national anthem after seeing their players patriotically singing it extremely loudly at the 1998 World Cup.

    Australia (Waltz Matilda or something? Yeah - that rules big time) or the Soldier's Song from the Rep. of Ireland.

    Having only heard Canada and the U.S.' anthems, Canadas is clearly the greatest of the two.

    Not a good national anthem? Not a good national anthem! Blimey, don't you realise what it is? It's a song that basically commands God (he works for us) to make sure our sovereign is safe, thusly allowing her to live well beyond normal life expectancy. So for example if the Royal Yacht is caught in the middle of a storm, then some patriotic soul can sing the national anthem and save her. It's utter genius!
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I really dunno, I haven't heard many. I don't think one is better than the other.

    Big Sugar's version of Oh Canada. The way the anthem should be played. Similar to Jimi Hendrix's version of the US Anthem.
