We Are Singing Jerusalem

We Are England, and we will be singing Jerusalem.

As you may have heard England's victory anthem at the Commonwealth Games will be Jerusalem, thanks to a public vote which ended like this.

So at long last England will have an anthem that is English, as opposed to British; an anthem that is national and nationalistic, as opposed to Land of Hope and Glory or God Save the Queen which are jingoistic and imperialist.

This is great news but it raises a problem for the anthem4england website. So far anthem4england has run two online polls, both of which found that Jerusalem was the most popular anthem. A Music Choice poll in 2003 also found that Jerusalem was the nation's favourite anthem. And now we have this YouGov poll for We Are England which again puts Jerusalem top of the pops.

Do you think it is time for the anthem4england campaign to become a campaign to adopt Jerusalem as the national anthem of England?
