My room started filling with fish and chips as I watched this.
+Iggy Ys I almost spilled my tea laughing at this.
+Tivec's World I almost choked on my crumpet laughing at this
+Mustafa Fazal I almost crashed my red lorry laughing at this.
I know...I was in the red telephone booth when I saw it happen!
+Iggy Ys Why is everybody bobbing up and down like that? Do they have to go to the loo?
This is the most british thing i have seen in my entire life
+Steve Anon Go to Miami, Florida during Spring Break. It's much worse.
+Steve Anon That is exactly how British/English tourists are in Amsterdam.
*****
Their Royalist of Majesties get drunk?
***** I can't believe that the entire British Empire gets sloppy drunk during this time.
***** I am not sure that I understand. Are you saying that the common folk are not allowed into Hyde Park when they get drunk or are you saying that the B. B. C. is not allowed into the area because they don't want anybody to see how drunk their subjects get?
my coffee heard this, now it's a cup of tea

Is that this "British sense of humour" i've heard so much about?
Very much so... definitely a British sense of humour
I so proud of being British right now, never mind I'm actually Portuguese
With a sense of humour like that, you should be British, have you checked your passport lately! lol
@@jayseaem if you actually visited Britain you'd find we have some of the best humour in the world
Oi! YE GOT A LOISANCE TO BE PA'RIOTIC?
The British and Portuguese hold the oldest standing alliance in the world. We've been firm friends since 1373 🇬🇧🤝🇵🇹
@@Maddie-ol5ocas a Portuguese, I am now the Duke of Edinburgh
im not even british and i feel patriotic
If the original lyrics to this great tune are ever scrutinized by the masses of the progressive Liberal left it will surely mean the end of it. It'll be condemned as xenophobic, racist and sexist...I LOVE IT
So do I. I feel patriotic whenever I listen to this.
I guess Elgar's music transforms me British for a couple minutes. :)
This even brings me to tears even tho I'm not British.
Such Glory in the Piece
Dont bother as I feel like a stranger in my own country.
@@doubleghod Welcome to 2020
Why am I getting patriotic goosebumps?? I’m from bleedin Norway
It's okay. You can be British for a bit. We don't mind.
The Vikings who invaded England came from Germany... but also from Scandinavia.

You don't always find such a huge crowd of people (who probably don't particularly enjoy classical music daily) cheering like this after a piece. It's honestly quite touching

I'm a Brit, who left the UK in 2000 to start a new life in Chicago. Absolutely love it here, but I haven't forgotten my roots. Whenever I watch these Last Night of the Prom finales, they always bring tears to my eyes.
How's Chicago?
Why on god would you choose Chicago of all places? Bug eyes can't even run a fridge, nevermind a city. Not exactly the safest place to move either. You'd be better off in London and that's already a shithole.
Born and raised in Chicago it is on my bucket list to go to Last Night of the Proms! Wish I could go every year!
@@Cruz474 Last night tickets are limited and are almost impossible to get ahold of. Owing to the huge demand for Last Night of the Proms tickets, special booking arrangements apply. The majority of tickets for the Last Night will be allocated by ballot to customers who have bought tickets to at least five other Proms concerts at the Royal Albert Hall. A further 200 tickets will be allocated by the Open Ballot.
Just as long as you're boiling water in a kettle and not a microwave 😋
I came from Hong Kong to UK in 2020, I feel very British indeed with this song and grateful that the British accept HongKongers amid the CCP political prosecutions. I was a member of a school choir, we play this master piece with a local orchestra in HK in 80s.
You idiot! Funny you come to UK. You dont like HK new China immigrants and village people. When you come to UK there are mostly China people and Village people that have been here for generations, driving up house prices. Also you become the new immigrant!
国安法就是为你准备的！舔着英国爸爸的屎忽以为就能当儿子了？也不看看你自己配不配？
You’re welcome here. May you live in peace and harmony.
英国才是文明，中国才是世界洼地
no sorry.
there's something about so many people in the same place singing along to one song and waving flags that's so beautiful
Depends on what flags.
Land of Hope and Glory, Mother of the Free,
How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set;
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet,
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
If only we could find the spirit represented by those words. Brexit would become a distant memory and we would stand tall again. Let the pioneers and visionaries move forward now. XxX
Thanks, Han!
The EU is a failed social experiment that Germany and Belgium insist on trying to keep afloat. British law dictates British life, not Germany's and certainly not Belgium's. Get out of the EU as fast as you can.
@@AdderTude I don't think you understand what the EU is... Much of its core systems were developed in the 20th century by British lawyers and ever member states takes part fully in the legislatution-making. By your logic, Kent should leave England because our laws are made in London and not Canterbury.
@@edskeates5357 But it is fundamentally a civil law continental legal system, which is a top-down, overbearing and ultimately wrong approach to law. Only common law is consistent with liberty, because it presumes us to be free to do as we please unless something has been explicitly banned (and through 700 years of discovery, those things that were banned were things that were found to have a victim).
So no matter what work those British lawyers did, the foundations were compromised and they could never erect a framework for freedom.
Goosebumps when the choir and crowd sang the lyrics
Am not British, an American. How I wish I could have been there to sing with everyone else. It's great seeing everyone enjoying themselves. And oh the talent it takes to be doing this music!
Well, you can, if you want. The BBC Proms is a yearly event, over 8 weeks of daily classical music concerts, every year. So if you can afford flights over to here in the UK, you can goto one of these Proms events and sing along with the rest of the crowd if you want.
As an American I'll never forget when our British family played the national anthem after 9/11
@@duffman18 I, also, would love to attend. Is the Proms a black-tie affair? I see mixed modes of dress. Is Pomp and Circumstance (Land of Hope and Glory) played each evening? Cheers.
@@MidwestMike100No, you can wear what you want, like when you go to the theatre some ppl like to dress up but there's no dress code. Pomp and Circumstance is only played on the Last Night of the Proms
If you do visit, you'll have to return some tea.
THE BEST BRITISH EVENT ON TELEVISION EVERY YEAR
@First Delivery The BBC are going to mad, I think. It's not against he rules to be patriotic
Yup agreed
I have heard this march every year in the Philippines as a Graduation March and never known the history of it, even it's lyrics, until today. I realized how beautiful and patriotic this march is. Learning on what it truly means made it even more special.
I didn't even know it's title until now
I didn't even know it's title until now
We use it here in the US as a graduation march too,
What's more interesting is that the Graduation March has actual lyrics
Nobody:
The Graduation song in a local school in the Philippines:
Legit hahhaahhaahha
Sa kanila: "This is the most british thing I've ever seen."
Sa 'tin: "1st honor.... "
Facts man! But surprisingly, they also played it in my niece's graduation in California. I'm not sure if all schools in the US does, but in the Philippines it's our graduation song. 😊
@@NomadLady007 and very awkward if someday, this will become the new anthem of Britain and this still plays at graduation marches around the world.
@@firefirefire3277The tune of “God Save the King” is also used in a variety of contexts - for instance, the American patriotic hymn “America (My Country, ‘Tis of Thee).”
No matter how many times I hear this I have tears and a heart full of pride for my country. And I am a 76 year young brit.
And your country men and women love you Carol.
When i hear that I’m feeling patriot and I’m german 😅
Me too, im crying now.
Here in the US we only do the middle part with out the lyrics and play it very softly at high school graduations... I literally never knew this was such a British thing and i have a lot of family in London! To me it was just called "the graduation song" now I know how truly beautiful this song really is!!
I know right? First I knew it as "the graduation song", then it was "pomp and circumstance, or the Macho Man's theme ("ELIZABETH, DOWN THAT AISLE!!!!")" now it's both those, plus it's official name, and "Land of hope and glory."
+hyperrat12 Yeah it could easily become our anthem when the Queen dies which will make it even weirder if you use it for graduation.
+chap0syoutuification this song is original written as a funeral march song
hyperrat12 c
I have British Great grandparents and they probably know the words to this 😂 thing is, they've been in the US long enough to know that we use "Pomp and Circumstance" as a graduation march.
If only people from around the world come and sing along with peace and harmony

Hi Fellow Pinoy!
You realize a portion of the lyrics are about conquest, right? Not very "peace and harmony" all.

The Great British public singing Land of Hope and Glory more passionately than they have ever done before, let's hope they can continue to do so for many years to come...
Absolutely! Still supporting the Union as I wait for the outcome of the referendum. Things can be fixed by working together within the UK.

And that tea actually came from India, with the seeds originating from China.
Look at all the different national flags that are flying. Some from nations that we were at war with 70 years ago but now all welcome and brought together by these promenade concerts. This is one of Britain's gifts to the world.

+saxon954 "...... look at all those countries we used to own."

I've always been surprised to see Japanese and South Korean flags in the audience for some reason. Perhaps because they were never in the British sphere of influence/close neighbours like most others. They just seem to be more out of place than even American or French flags. Not saying they don't belong there, just that I'm surprised they'd be interested in something as nationalistic as Last Night of the Proms.
we were at war, saxon954. right said. greetings from Italy.
As a Finn, I am really proud of the good stock of conductors we are distributing abroad. Everybody, you know Sakari Oramo is a Finn, don't you??? :)
You know Sakari means full bloom in Japanese, don't you?
Such an masterpiece of music and the choir is giving me goosebumps. The other thing that comes in mind is a big "OOOOOOH YEEEEEEAAAAH"

It brings a tear to my eye just watching this, seeing people from all around the world in peace and harmony, it is a truly great sight to see.
Words can not explain...

that's because we are a civilised people who know how to be caring,and share our love with others

I used to watch this video in the year 2016. The pandemic made me watch it again when youtube suggested it, I was surprised I could memorize it a little bit. I wonder why I also feel patriotic and emotional about this song. This is our graduation march in our country. Music is indeed transcendent, it is truly the language of the heart. It knows no boundaries. Greetings from the Philippines!
This even makes my cat cry. Fanny gets very emotional with things like this.
mrsbrown andhercat ooh poor fanny
I am envious of you Brits! We don't have those kind of patriotic songs, most of us don't even are patriots, which I think is a pity. Love and respect from Germany!
Thank you.Regrettably German history has damaged patriotism. You have Wagner's music that is stirring.
`thank you cousin from a brit
KekskruemelReloaded The DDR National Anthem wasn’t bad. It was fairly stirring, had worthy motives even if naïve ones and at least it didn’t worship whichever species of Emperor was current. Frankly, regardless of nationality or ideology, National Anthems as such tend to the banal. Songs such as “Land of Hope and Glory” and (much better) “Jerusalem” are more to the point because they express desire to serve our fellow human beings.

There's not enough patriotism in the UK in recent years. It's always good to know there are still plenty out there
Also my English father used to always play this in the car on full volume when I was little.
It's that time of the year again - graduation season. If you're reading this in 2023, and are graduating (regardless of where), congratulations! May this new chapter in your life bring you much needed hope, and success, no matter where your endeavours take you.
Brings a tear to my eyes every time. you can feel the human spirit in this song
With Land of Hope and Glory I started weeping. And I’m not even British...
I also cried because that's our graduation song during College huhu
I'm THAI people who love Classical music, I hope One day I could join The Proms and sing this song OUT LOUD there.
สวัดดีครับ
Just when you most despair of modern music, this restores your optimism.
It’s actually the first Pomp and Circumstance by Elgar; he wrote four, as well as the Coronation March for King George V as well as several symphonies!

@@EmilyRafferty The funny thing is, it's so atypical Elgar. The man wrote such beautiful pieces (for Cello, ...) and yet this stands out.

For 40 years my wife Pam has made pilgrimages to Great Britain. She never ceases to remind me and others of the history and culture of England. This Proms 2014 presentation gives credence to her feelings.
That is soooo awesome to see crowd involvement like that at the Proms. Pomp and Circumstance has special meaning to everyone who ever graduated anywhere and to the parents and family who looked on. Brought tears to my eyes unexpectedly. I think one day I would like to attend BBC Proms live.
This wonderful music brings me back to 1958 and the graduation ceremony at Teaneck (NJ) High School. .. always brings a tear to my eye.
My best friend went to Teaneck a few years ago but this song makes me miss my days at St. Andrews
My grandmother died today (Friday, 07th Oct.).
I listened and sang to this 3 hours non-stop.
It's very therapeutic.
The lyrics can well be taken for a soul that is set free and back with God now.
So sorry for your loss. I'm glad this has helped you ❤
sorry for your loss

The best performance of Pomp and Circumstance I have ever seen.
I don’t know why as I am not British but whenever I hear this I cry! I just get so emotional. Strange..
it's in your heart
I am now in Y8, I still remember I graduated one and a half years ago, and this is the graduation song. I still can't believe I actually graduated. Primary was the best moment ever in my life.

So this is what the graduation song is called... - An American
Learned this song's name from Kingsmen, Another American.
oh deary me
Not a troll post. This is literally the "graduation song." It is used at commencement ceremonies all across the country.
Michael Hazell
i have heard this song played at schools in america and it's pitiful, Land of hope and Glory and Jerusalem are the two song that as Englishmen and women that make us proud, and america school band slaughter Land of hope and Glory.
The British can always seek revenge on us Americans by butchering the trio of "Stars and Stripes Forever" at their graduation ceremonies.
Brilliance and patriotism at it's best. UK forever
There were tears in my eyes last night as I thought this could be it, the last time this is sung as an entire country.
Not all Scots want independance, some are happy to be part of something bigger.
This is very unsettling.
At the time of writing the polls still look to be leaning toward no. However it's all within the margin of error. It will be a very interesting results night
Michael Hope to be honest I wouldn't say interesting, this is my future, my childrens future and I know that empty promises don't make a country and my family would need to be somewhere secure.
Ali CG Happy with the result?
Michael Hope relieved, thankyou for asking :D
Just seeing this many people come together us truly touching..... I love this!!!
As I watched this, my radio turned into a wireless, my collar starched its self, the UK was stretched across my desk globe, I instinctively put on a monocle and bicorne.
As if I wasn't already feeling emotional enough, they had to do an encore. God bless you Britain.
"Oh my god that was f**king spectacular!"
Love that scene
Four generations since my ancestors left Lizard Point almost 150 years ago bound to Chile, and still my heart beats fast with this!
Your always welcome back Javier. Once British always British! Come back and visit. Am sure you will find some relatives in these in these green and pleasant lands,

Mexico hates Argentina too hehe we love you for that
I graduated today and I had the pleasure of walking out during that crescendo at 3:15 and it was surreal.
Oh congratulations
Bloody marvellous! Elgar's masterpiece. Never fails to make me cry.
This simultaneously made a Union Jack and an academic robe appear in my room
I think this must be the patriotic song of a united world! With hundreds of millions of people, poor and rich, heroic and cowardly,
creator and destroyer, king and peasant, every guy, girl, man and woman, I think this must be the patriotic anthem of the world!

Every year when the pomp and circumstance march is played, someone always lets a balloon go.
It's like becoming a tradition for the last night of the proms.
it's exactly that, a tradition, .enjoy
I can't listen to this magnificent composition without thinking of the time when England stood alone against Hitler. Although the composer lived in a different time his masterpiece speaks to all history of England's "finest hour".
Bravo, Commonwealth friends; you deserve your glory and celebration.
That's crazy. I was thinking the exact same thing. Gotta love the plucky Brits. Tough, proud people with awesome history. Would love to live there, from a Canadian. Always loved anything British and seeing this just reinforces that. Well said man.
they should allied with Hitler and destroy marxist and communism , common enemies of europe , by fighting germany a fellow european nation , britain lost their empire and europe lost the world thanks Churchill RIP Empire
God this me gives goosebumps. BTW funny thing is that I know Sakari Oramo personally, and knew that he is a conductor okay, no other details leaked - very modest guy, But when this clip came up I was flabbergasted : Sakari Oramo conducting BBC symphony orchestra in Royal Albert Hall in BBC proms! As I said very down to earth guy in a good way.
The irony of it is that sir Elgar never graduated.
yet this is the standart graduation song of English speaking world.
Actually, it is not a graduation song in the UK and never has been; it has always been regarded as a patriotic march here. I don't think it is used as a graduation march in Australia or New Zealand either. Elgar was awarded an honorary doctorate in music by Yale University in the USA in 1905 where this March was played in his honour. It is from this performance that it began to be used as a graduation march in the USA and then later in Canada and the Philippines.
Amazingly good,an absolutely astounding piece of music and pageantry, as an Irishman who's apparently not allowed to rejoice in all things british, this has and always will warm my heart❤
"OH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" R.I.P Macho man randy savage.
