Goose bumps, no wonder young Goosen was crying, Sung with so much passion by Heinz and Charlize, love our anthem, especially when it is sung by such great singers. Fabulous.
I wished football players were like this,the feeling of representing your country and being picked to don the flag on your chest is truly a honor.See on the rugby players expressions,truly the best sporting environment there is.
***** The Afrikaners certainly have a higher level of fervor over rugby than most others. But the English SAs are quite passionate about the boks as well
+TheSpitfire109 Its because the Afrikaans part is actually from South Africa while the other languages are derived from an African song for God to bless Africa. The Afrikaans parts were written in a very dark time in History - its got some conviction!!
+Adam Clark Over 90% of Afrikaans derives directly from Dutch. But because Afrikaans has developed more quickly then Dutch, dutch people can understand Afrikaans but it's much harder for an Afrikaner to understand Dutch.
I love how they sang this almost comparing the voices of the 2 singers and highlighting how Heinz is being out classed and should please go take his seat while Charlize just quickly owns this anthem. Nice voice Charlize but please stop singing with the peasants.
+mohamed nejib Do elaborate......... because they are mostly white? What do you say when SA plays soccer - "The team seems like an African one" this is South Africa Mohamed. Founded by settlers evading persecution in Europe and wanting a place to practice their religion freely. Then flocked the East African Banthu people to find jobs, they breed like rabbits, create democracy (under the shadow of communism) free Mandela and now try to ride the wave that whites have built for 400 years. Tough people play rugby not gravy-train riders
+WeeBam Martin you just couldnt resist a little insult to black people could you....for fecks sake man in a sports video? Mandela wouldnt have liked that mate!
that black guy,is very funny,he put his left hand to the right side of his chest :))) .... or maybe his heart is layed down in his right side of his body :)) ...
Of course..now it's their land ... they born and raised..in Africa..you think they would say .. Europe our land . even though.. the majority of them don't see it or visit it ..not even live on it😁🙏
