"This is a man who's just lost his mother" - Thank you, Connor! Beautiful words from you! As someone from England, UK, I appreciate it!
Well said
As a french, she was an international treasure. We will miss her
I loved President Macron's tribute.
Merci beaucoup.
@@philippahusain7778yes it was superior
You French overthrew your own Monarchy centuries ago.

That image of the Queen at Prince Phillip's funeral just breaks my heart.
And to think the night before Boris Johnson was having a party at 10 Downing Street whilst the whole country wasn’t allowed within 10ft of each other 😡 the utter disrespect he had for our queen makes me sick
@@fatsam2564 I don't think he'll ever live that down. We have long memories.
Thank you Connor ❤ 🇬🇧
Thank you young man.
Totally are are and I'm no royalist but I am human it broke my heart 💔
Thank you for your kind words, Connor, they mean a lot.
I second your reply @irene3196 Connor's words are very kind
Connor you have a very good soul . I'm 60 years old and you brought a tear to my eye with your passionate words . Your words should be watched by every UK politician and nay sayer in these islands . My mother is Welsh , my father's family are from Ireland , I was born in England so most of these islands bloods run through these veins and I'm damn proud to be British . You are the best of our American cousins . Thank you .
I agree wholeheartedly with your comment and just said basically the same to Connor following his response to our dear late Queen, may she Rest In Peace. It's good to know who your friends are.
60 isn't old...👍
@@glastonbury4304 .. I agree 🙂
I too am half Irish, and proud of it, but as someone born in London, these Brit bashers make me sick.
We are so, so proud of being British.....nobody can take that away from us.....Britishness is unique.....God bless Elizabeth ❤❤❤❤❤
The image of the Queen sitting alone at her husband's funeral is so painful. I am not a royalist but I am a humanist, I just see an elderly lady all on her own in her grief. Left to sit alone when she should have been surrounded by her family and loved ones for support. The image of Charles standing is another one, just a grieving, broken man who has just lost his mother: the rock in his and so many of our lives.
Your words at the end were very meaningful and heartfelt
Thank you Connor. crying now. I miss our Queen so much. No one will ever take her place.
So true, she was our sister, auntie, mother and grandmother, and most of all she was our Sovereign, she was our Queen !
You're wise beyond your years Connor. Thank you for your kind words.
Its was the greatest piece of luck that I was born an Englishman. I only have to look back at my individual heritage that is traced back to 1386. I couldn’t be more proud of my country. 🏴🇬🇧
The French ruled England in 1386.
Before them it was the Vikings.
Scotland has ruled the UK since its creation, it's why every monarch since 1603 has been crowned ruler of Scots, but only 2 ruler of England.
@@Mark-Haddow
Richard ll was born in France, but his parents were English, which makes him English. Which means there was an English king ruling England in 1386.
We all won the lottery of life when we were born English 🏴
Seriously?! Cymru/ Wales WAS Great Britain until you stole it,like you tried to wipe out our culture?! But Failed! Tell me you are proud now! If you still say you are,well you are a moron!
That is a huge achievement to get back to 1300s! Well done!
Thank You young man. I for one am bloody damn proud to be an Englishman. Insightful and respectful comments.
totaly agree
What has that got to do with the UK monarchy, all of whom have been descendants of Scots royalty.
There wasn't a UK before 1801
and since then the British Monarchy has had English, German, Danish and Scottish ancestry.
@@trytellingthetruth.2068 1707 was the act of Union and that was Queen Anne's tie
@@mayajrj
You're absolutely right,, but that was the act of Union between England and Scotland, which gave us Great Britain. I was replying to a comment about the formation of the United Kingdom, which took place in 1801.
Thank you so much for your comments Connor, it's such a shame that so many UK citizens don't feel the same about our achievements and compassion towards the rest of the world. Now you've got me crying so I'll say it one more time, Thank You.
Thank you Connor.🇬🇧
God Bless you Connor for your kind words
Dear Connor I was so moved by your comments today. I truly appreciate your sentiments and your passionate words. I am proud to be British. We are in a bit of a pickle at the moment, so I will hold on to all you have said during the rollercoaster months we are, no doubt. entering. Love you and your Channel very much and try to check in every day. Take care of yourself. All the very best.
Thank you for what you said, very much appreciated. We really need to hear that right now. There are those who try to blame us for the wrongs of the past, instead of looking at the positives. Some have disdain for those of us who take pride in our nation, history and culture.
We are proud and especially proud of her. She was faithful to us throughout her life.
We have been bad. We have been terrible. The advantage of existing so long is that we can face the good and the bad.
To us, you are one of us. You respect us and we appreciate that.
Thank you so much Connor,you truly are a remarkable young man I hope you are well,much love and respect to you,from a 68 year old proud Brit 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Thank you, Connor. You are a respectful young man. You are a great American. Both UK and U S will always have a special relationship and no dictatorship around the world will come between us...we have far too much in common. God bless America 🇬🇧🇺🇲
Thank you for your respect and love for our country Connor. I am incredibly proud to be British and of the contribution the UK has made to the world. I also feel huge gratitude to have been born in this green and pleasant land. It's currently fashionable to knock ourselves, but we should count our very many blessings imho. And you are right Connor, Britain will endure despite recent perturbations. We will go on to prosper and play our part in building a better world.
As an Australian Elizabeth ascended the throne when I was 3, she has been a constant for most of my life. Even though a lot of us are not royalists she was admired and respected. You words were very kind mate,
Of course the Queen, on becoming queen, as such a young age, famously and publicly. vowed to serve her country and her people, whether her life be long or short. And she did it for so long. Yes that was Prince Philips funeral, during lock down. It's heartbreaking. But I, for one, am so proud of being British. Not of everything this country has done, some of it was shameful, but things were were different. then We did though, start the abolition of slavery. For that we can be very proud. And your words have moved me. You're such a thoughtful and beautiful young man. Thank you..
Thank you, Connor, for your heartfelt tribute. You have a sincere heart, and those were beautiful words.
Well said, young man. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words Connor . It means so much. ❤
Thank you Connor, you’re a precious young man, and your accolade to my country at the end made me cry …❤
Thank you for your beautiful words. They are appreciated. 💙🇬🇧
Bless you and thank you for your kind and thoughtful words, they are much appreciated.
I’m in tears again! 😢😢😢. Thank you, Conner❤
You spoke well Connor. The words to I Vow to Thee My Country are very moving. I know there are a number of UA-cam videos you can choose from where you can see and hear it sung, often at the Albert Hall which you referred to. Check them out, as I’m sure you’d enjoy them and you’d enjoy reacting to one of them.
I am incredibly proud to be British and I so loved our Queen, it still makes me cry. I am also left wing politically, no one can take away the way I feel or shame me into feeling a different way… so there….love to all thank you Connor.😻🙏❤️
Thank you connor, , and ending speech like no other and i could tell in your voice very heart felt, your as much a brit in your heart as we are
Hi connor , The part where she passes her pony and corgis got me the most and the lone piper playing sleep dearie sleep as she was lowered into the vault. 😢 And thankyou for your kind words
Thankyou Connor. A heartfelt and passionate declaration of love and support to a nation only to used to hiding their national pride when it should be shouted from the roof tops. And thankyou for your respect and admiration for a beloved sovereign.
Bless you 🇬🇧
Thankyou, as a proud Yorkshire woman and a Royalist… I’m am an Elizabethan- born in the coronation year. She was my Queen… I’m am proud…
I'm british and I would be so proud if you were my son, l hope your Mum is,I'm sure she is,much love
Thank you. Tonight you truly lifted my spirits. For too many months I've worried about my country ... where we're heading and whether different factions within and externally we're pulling us down - at a time more than ever when we should be pulling together. I can only wish that many others will see and share your reaction. I will wipe away my tears with a smile. Thanks again !
Thank you Connor for your gracious affirmation of this country's contribution to the world. Respect !
Thank you Connor. That was a lovely tribute and much appreciated.
Connor as a Brit I love this Hymn it has always meant so much.. no problem repeating it a fitting Hymn for Our Late Queen and for remembering all of those that sacrificed everything for us all to be here today. Thank you for your respect young man.. you are a credit to your family.
McJibbin...listening to you, and observing your clearly emotional responses to all things British, leaves me with absolutely no doubt that you are, in fact, of course a proud American on the outside, but your core personality is with and from these Great British Islands. And there is absolutely nothing that you can do to rid yourself of that belonging. So, carry on showing these vlogs that remind us that we are still a great country. Cheers mate ! Thanks. Sheffield South Yorkshire.
Cheers mate - personally value your opinion enormously. The time, and interest, you have taken in learning as much of our history is impressive and pretty moving. Emotional watching this again. Just... cheers.
I’m proud to be English and British. I was also immensely proud of our Queen Elizabeth and the image of her seated alone and masked at Prince Philip’s funeral still gets to me.
Lovely comments. Thank you, Connor. You still need to listen to 'I Vow to Thee My Country' with words sung. 💖💖
Thank you Connor, you’re a good man! You also have a great country 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 and as you’ve said before, past a certain point in time our history is basically yours too
Thank you Connor, she was the country's Grandma and we still miss her....I wish more people of your generation and below in our country felt the same way...
Thank you for kind words Connor, I was deeply touched..
thankyou so much for your kind words they mean so much
Her funeral was supposedly the most watched event of any kind in history, that's gotta count for something. The fact you can just say "THE queen" and anyone in any country would assume you are referring to her
The Myrtle in the wreath was taken from a bush grown from a sprig from her wedding bouquet. (Myrtle represents eternity.)
Oh this did make to tear up all over again. 2 years on and I do miss our late Queen 😢😞❤🇬🇧
That ‘big theatre’ is The Royal Albert Hall which was built in 1871 by Queen Victoria as a tribute to her late husband Prince Albert who was a great patron of the Arts!
Your respect does you great credit.
Such kind words. Thank you
You’re a true gentleman Connor, thank you 🇬🇧🇺🇸
All the magnificence, the ceremony, the pageantry, and in the middle of it all was not only the nation's grandmother, but of every one of those taking part. Each one of those soldiers, sailors and airmen who took turns carrying her coffin were not only thinking of her as Queen. Look at Prince Charles's face, that's not the face of a man glorying in the fact that he is now King, it is a man who is saying goodbye to his mother.
Her wedding was a HUGE occasion. I have a documentary up on it, which is about an hour, it also shows rare footage of the day, exclusive to that video, from the Queens private home movies. They speak with people there and her dress designer aswell as replicate her cake, amongst other things. Its really good
"A Very Royal Wedding - FULL DOCUMENTARY - 2017 HD"
You should watch Luke Evans sing I Vow to Thee at the Royal Albert Hall Festival of Remembrance a few years ago it was beautiful
I agree.
All I will say Connor, is thank you!
Bless you Connor, ❤. Your kind and appreciative thoughts to the good in the world is very heart warming, when there is so much negativity around 😊
Thank you for the respect you show a country, and institution, that you have zero need to do. That's why we are proud of you. R.I.P. Her Royal Highness. One love from Scotland. 💙
That (amphitheater) venue is called; The Royal Albert Hall. King Charles became King the moment that the late Queen passed away.
Beautifully said Connor. The lone piper at the end of the ceremony leaving the chapel brought closure for many and was superbly done.
I am a young Scot, I am not a supporter of the British monarchy, but on the day that Her Majesty began her final journey to London I made a point of being in Edinburgh and bowing my head in sign of respect for Queen Elizabeth II.
Yes that was at Prince Philip’s funeral in 2021
Connor, I didn't think I could love you more. I am proud to be English and British and that will never change. I miss our beloved Queen.
Also the sung version of this hymn is even more beautiful.
She wasn't Queen of England
Oliver Cromwell ended that tradition.
Thank you Connor for your amazing words and the respect you have for our country. We need it more than ever now and I send my love and gratitude to you.
Thank You Connor I am very proud to be English
it was composed by Brit Gustave Holst and is Jupiter, the bringer of jollity from the planet suite, which he then changed to the hymn
thank-you for your support
Thank you Connor.
I'm a proud 79 y/o Brit and I would do anything I could to protect my beautiful country . Thankyou Connor for your heartfelt words, you are wise beyond your years . God save the Queen ❤ 🇬🇧
Thanks mate,we all need to here something said about us from time to time. 👍👍
Bless you Connor, and thank you for your truly kind words. Queen Elizabeth ll was so loved, and is so missed. She was our rock, and her passing has left such a void in our country, I don't think that will ever be filled. I am so so proud to be British, I love my country. Thank you again, you are an insightful and lovely young man..
As a Brit, thank you so much. Our beautiful Queen was so beloved x
I’m Proud to Be British and to serve My Country,
But to hear your Wonderful Respectful comments brought me to tears of Pride.🇬🇧
Thank you so much Connor .
Your Obviously a wonderful person,
Thank you Connor 🇬🇧
Thanks, Connor. We still mourn her passing. Cheers!
You have a beautiful old soul Connor and your wonderfully compassionate and wise words brought tears to an 82-year-old Englishman's eyes. Thank you young man. Your insight and understanding of what it means to be human and from the UK far outweighs your age in years. 🌹🌹🌹
Watching this again still evokes tears and I think it will always will with me, I went to London for the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II and stood outside hanging on to the railings at Buckingham Palace with all the other children shouting we want the Queen. God Bless Her😢
We are so proud of being British and love our country we love America too 🏴🏴🏴❤️
By the way , your reaction @ 8.00 or so...... You show soooo much respect... it touches me as a Dutch guy, I always respected HM Queen Elisibeth II, she was a powerfull and determined Lady with a job to do right by the Brits..... It was a hard job but to me she pulled it off even when things went sour in her realm.
Thank you Connor, im very proud to be an English/British woman. The Queen is still greatly missed, god bless her. ❤
Thank you for your words.
We have been the good guy for centuries - despite the bad things we have done too..... life is never perfect but we have always strived to be the best and do the right thing whatever and wherever....... Thanks for your great words. Elizabeth was the pinnacle of all that is good about the UK and the Commonwealth!
A man who has just lost his mother, a man who has assumed the heavy mantle of monarch and a man who has had to do that in full view of the entire world with the calm dignity that the role requires. For most in Britain the shock and grief were palpable and for many the loss of the Queen represented or reflected the loss of a family member because she was a constant in their lives. The beauty of monarchy is its continuity and stability over and above political turmoil and global upheaval. It provides a focus for national unity in times of crisis and celebration and projects an image of our nation to the wider world. It sets a tone of what it is to be British. The reign of Queen Elizabeth II will be defined as an era in the long history of the United Kingdom and she will stand very tall amongst the ranks of her predecessors.
Thank you Connor for your impassioned response to this moving video. Your British roots are showing.
The more I watch your videos, the more I think that you are a man of feeling and sensitivity. Thank you.
Thank you Conner. Beautiful kind words spoken from your heart. 🇬🇧
Thank you so much young man..From England. I am 80yrs.That means a lot.
Thank you so much for showing so much respect to Our Late Queen.
She is Missed so very much😢
Two years on and this is still like a punch in the stomach. 68 year old Englishman here and throughout my whole life she was just 'there'......your words were magnificent Connor, nothing to apologise for. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind comments. I am very proud to be British and I am always proud that we have always punched far above our weight. I miss the Queen she was so special.
Thank you Connor , you have a big heart.🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thank you so much for those lovely words. It means so much to us. God Bless you
I love watching your videos Connor, you are such a good man!
The music to ‘I Vow to Thee My Country’ is of course by Gustav Holst but the lyrics are by Sir Cecil Spring Rice who was UK ambassador to the USA before the First World War and who was instrumental in persuading President Woodrow Wilson to abandon American neutrality
Thank you Conner for shhowing this tribute to Queen Elizabeth. As an Australian with a strong british connection in my family, your words were beautiful
Thank you Connor, for what you said. I was in tears too.
I was born in Coronation year too, my father was in the Regular Army, with many Service relatives. So, in some ways the Queen was a more immediate presence in my life than some people might experience. (Although, no, I never met her).
I'm English first and British second, and I'm proud of what my country has contributed to the world.
Of course we are not perfect. No one is but we have done at least as much good in the world as we have done ill. Which may be our saving grace. In theory we have principles, in practice we don't always live up to them. Sometimes we end up being expedient.
Our Queen gave her life in our service. Her decisions weren't always right (we talked about perfection didn't we?) and not always popular, but we loved her. It hurts to know that she is gone.
Thank you Connor for your genuine respect,I am a very proud British citizen,the late Queen is still missed,😢❤
well spoke conner ty very proud of our history
