In school i learned a verse that i never ever hear sung, i would be the 3rd verse: And when the battle's over We to the town repair The townsmen cry hurrah boys, Here come the grenadiers Here come the grenadiers me boys Who know doubts nor fears With a tow row row etc.
That's the fourth. Thus version is missing the second verse as well. Those heroes of antiquity never saw a cannon ball Or knew the force of powder to slay there foes withal But our brave boys do know it and banish all there fears With a tow row row row row row to the British grenadiers.
I'm not the person singing this. The professional musicians who sang and played this (who include the band of the Scots Guards) did a fine job, What do you mean, "in tune"? "Properly'? You know nothing about 18th century music or musical history, do you?
Fr I'm as american as a big Mac and even I know middle c has raised and continues to since Mozart (rip king) got thrown in a hole. Homie didn't pass sixth grade orchestra fr.
There is a very good reason for that. When Howard Goodall was writing the music for the Blackadder series, he wrote the music in the style of period of which the each series was set. This recording is a historical informed performance (aren't all performances), it is an 18th Century style performance as there is there is a clarinet in the ensemble. Back to Blackadder (the Third) 18th/19th Century.

In 1775, Dr. Joseph Warren of Boston wrote these lyrics to this tune: "Free America" 1. That seat of science, Athens, And earth's proud mistress, Rome, Where now are all their glories? We scarce can find a tomb. Then guard your rights, Americans, Nor stoop to lawless sway, Oppose, oppose, oppose, oppose For North America. 2. We led fair Freedom hither, And lo! the desert smiled, A paradise of pleasure Was opened to the world; Your harvest, bold Americans, No pow'r shall snatch away, Huzza, huzza, huzza For free America. 3. Torn from a world of tyrants Beneath this western sky We formed a new dominion, A land of liberty; The world shall own we're freemen here, And such will ever be, Huzza, huzza, huzza, For love and liberty. 4. God bless this maiden climate, And through her vast domain May hosts of heroes cluster That scorn to wear a chain. And blast the venal sycophants Who dare our rights betray; Assert yourselves, yourselves, yourselves For brave America. 5. Lift up your hearts, my heroes, And swear with proud disdain, The wretch that would ensnare you Shall spread his net in vain; Should Europe empty all her force, We'd meet them in array, And shout huzza, huzza, huzza For brave America. 6. The land where freedom reigns shall still Be masters of the main, In giving laws and freedom To subject France and Spain; And all the isles o'er ocean spread Shall tremble and obey, The prince who rules by Freedom's laws In North America.
Britons! We have been through thick and thin and together we stand, together we can do anything, we need to rebuild our wonderful nation to the standard it used to be. Together, united as one, Liberal, Socialist, all are equal in our nation. A nation of greatness, technology, advancement, intellectuals. Improve yourself, to improve your nation. Assimilate new immigrants into our wondrous culture. Let patriotism flow through you for our nation. For we were and still can be, great. Unite hand in hand as our ancestors did.
