England forever, ... ( 3 months ago by rnorththorn)
England forever, words are never enough for this music. Simply the best.
I completely agree, ... ( 2 months ago by thrombox)
I completely agree, I was ashamed of our forces then, the Iranians dressed them in suits and paraded them around like clowns.. I would have liked to see the captain of those 15 facing a court martial.. Who allowed them to take of their uniforms when they were in captivity? The iranians showed those idiots scoffing their faces on television, if I was the commanding officer I would have everyone standing to attention... Jesus what are our forces coming to.. Not the top brass we used to be...
Britain can be that ... ( 2 months ago by FunmasterBob)
Britain can be that way again, it just takes the effort of everyone to make the change, nothing major, just a shift in ideas, gradually, slowly. Be a bulwark against change in whatever way you can.

I can't help ... ( 2 months ago by ISE65)
I can't help smiling when people wax lyrical over the quintessentially British nature of this piece written to represent a German, his great friend August Johannes Jaeger.
Fantastically sentimental stuff, though.
Nimrod ,from the ... ( 2 months ago by KINGANDSUSAN)
Nimrod ,from the Enigma variations, A collection of peices Elger composed and dedicated to his friends.....the answer to this particular enigma:.Nimrod in Biblical terms was the Great-grand son of Noah, who was renown for his skills as a mighty hunter..................August Jaeger,a german, was one of Elger' closest friends...Jaeger in German translates to "Hunter".
.....Clever stuff eh.
Mystery solved it still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!....perfect for rememberance!
Whoops sorry Edward ... ( 2 months ago by KINGANDSUSAN)
Whoops sorry Edward.........Elgar (not Elger)!..I must learn to check my spelin before I pres send!
Elgar used this ... ( 2 months ago by winston5610)
Elgar used this musical portrait of Jaeger as a way to reminisce about the many hours they had spent discussing the slow movements of Beethoven symphonies. It takes only knowledge of Elgar's original theme and of Beethoven's ninth to see the genius of this masterpiece. It is unapologetically romantic and unabashedly lyrical but such were the times. Music transcends spoken language in expression of emotion.
Brilliant music, ... ( 2 months ago by jaimsC)
Brilliant music, but the quality make sit sound like on of the wind up old fashioned faire ground thingies

Stirring stuff! ... ( 3 weeks ago by Clansmanchris)
Stirring stuff! This piece always moves me to tears whether on Remembrance Day or at other times.
As one fast approaches Remembrance Day again REMEMBER THE DEAD, BUT DON'T FORGET THE LIVING. WEAR YOUR POPPY WITH PRIDE!
I try to watch this ... ( 2 weeks ago by drapesy84)
I try to watch this every year when I can and I've noticed the BBC uses the same camera cuts, etc everytime but I nonetheless find it very effective: At the climax of the music at 3:23 onwards they always to this - fade into the words on the Cenotaph "THE GLORIOUS DEAD"
and it never fails to make me well up, such an effective piece of editing together with such a stirring piece of music
next week we do it ... ( 2 weeks ago by tinker5k)
next week we do it all again and again i,ll think of my Father and Mother. But i think its time the Germans should take part...........
You bring up a good ... ( 1 week ago by scall83)
You bring up a good point drapesy84, every year it's the same, same music, same shots, same year after year. That's the whole point of it. Hope it never changes. Some things never need to change. This ceremony is one of them.

To all the fallen heroes....may you now be at peace...

If that doesnt make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, I dont know what would! Brilliant and moving to say the least.

I wish the UK did ... ( 4 days ago by ProUnionist)
I wish the UK did what the Menin Gate, Ypres, Belgium, does every single day.
The town stands still every day and remembers.
We must challenge UK education and ensure all our children never forget that without the bravery of the men of 1914-1918 none of us would be present today to enjoy life.
Your children and grand children owe alot to the fallen - don't ever forget all faiths & cultures died for us all at the blow of a whistle.
As long as I am ... ( 12 hours ago by Cwmbran1984)
As long as I am still on this planet, I'll continue to remember what my Great Grandfather & both my Grandpa's did in the 2 World Wars.
I'm only 24 years old and every person my age should respect what they went through for us.
