    Fresh from recording all 205 National Anthems to be played at this summer's games, the London Philharmonic Orchestra has teamed up with MINI for one more performance. All stand please for conductor Gareth Newman and the London 2012 Limited Edition MINI's unique tribute to Team GB.

    That was great! The best MINI commercial in quite a while, IMHO.

    Great MINI ad!

    It is odd that the British National Anthem is one of our most beloved patriotic songs, with different lyrics. I admit that I don't know the history about how that happened.

    I'm with you Jim, everyone needs to just relax and enjoy the music!

    Jimi Hendrix did an amazing version of "God Save the Queen" at the Isle of Wight Music Festival days before he died. It is very reminiscent of his version of "The Star Spangled Banner" at Woodstock. He exhorted the British crowd to stand up and sing for their country!
