German Empire's National Anthem - Heil dir im Siegerkranz (Alternative Version)

"Heil dir im Siegerkranz" (German for "Hail to Thee in the Victor's Crown", literally: "Hail to You in a Victor's Wreath") was the unofficial national anthem of the German Empire from 1871 to 1918.
Before the foundation of the Empire, it had been the royal anthem of Prussia since 1795 and remained it after 1871. The melody of the hymn derived from the British anthem "God Save the King". For these reasons, the song failed to become popular within all of Germany. Not only did it fail to win the support of most German nationalists, it was never recognized by the southern German states, such as Bavaria or Württemberg.[3] After World War I, the German Empire came to an end and "Das Lied der Deutschen" became the national anthem of the Weimar Republic.
*This version is not set to tune of God Save the Queen/King, rather it is composed by German composer Hugo Kaun, who with Julius Heinrich Zimmermann, wished to change the tune of the anthem in order to not be confused with the hostile British anthem during the first World War.
Original German text:
Während des Ersten Weltkriegs veranlasste der Umstand, dass es seine Melodie mit der britischen Königshymne teilte, den Berliner Komponisten Hugo Kaun zusammen mit dem Verleger, Kommerzienrat und Reichstagsabgeordneten Julius Heinrich Zimmermann zu dem Versuch, eine neue Melodie auf „Heil dir im Siegerkranz“ einzuführen. Diese Absicht ignorierte jedoch.

Imo, this version is better than the popular one
So, thank you very much for the uploade, because it seems it is the only version of Hugo Kann's "Heil dir im Siegerkranz" on the all UA-cam.

The German Empire had de facto no anthem, the song Heil dir im Siegerkranz was only played when the Kaiser was present or at larger events, otherwise Die Wacht am Rhein was often sung.
