And, that made me remember that Mexico has some versions of the Anthem in first people's languages. I wonder if there are other countries with also anthem translations to original languages. In Mexico, translation is done in a process that involves government and National Indigenous Languages Institute, better known by its acronym INALI (source: Wikipedia)<br /><br />[Himno México otras lenguas]<br /><br /><a href="https://mexico.sil.org/es/recursos/himno-nacional-mexicano" rel="nofollow">Himno Nacional Mexicano en diez lenguas indígenas de México</a><br /><br /><a href="https://mxcity.mx/2018/06/el-himno-nacional-mexicano-en-cinco-hermosas-lenguas-indigenas/" rel="nofollow">EL HIMNO NACIONAL MEXICANO EN CINCO HERMOSAS LENGUAS INDÍGENAS</a>Ramon Gonzalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129830563029534511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-12536636660062005212020-05-22T12:46:18.356-07:002020-05-22T12:46:18.356-07:00@ Ramón - St. Helens - video bit at the end in goo...<a href="https://portlandartmuseum.org/volcano-online/#top" rel="nofollow">@ Ramón - St. Helens - video bit at the end in good too.</a><br /><a href="http://waynocartoons.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">if you haven't seen</a><br /><br />Dan might enjoy too…remmijhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17985809654574916217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-66676512761535802032020-05-21T12:28:38.678-07:002020-05-21T12:28:38.678-07:00Remmij, just to comment that 'GooglePlex' ...Remmij, just to comment that 'GooglePlex' similar airport was cancelled. Santa Lucia is the new one. It is a military base that now will be converted into an airport. The new government decided the beautiful one was expensive, not working and with lots of corruption so decided to invest in the cheaper (better they said) one. Now with Covid19, who knows if that will be put on hold. Apparently not.

Also love Hawaii Five-0 and never watched first series with O instead of 0. Also made me remember The Love Boat. And about Iz, I think the first time I heard him (or at least searched for him was with Meet Joe Black. <br /><br />Reading the Challenge thought: Do the states of Mexico or Canada all have similar songs? My first answer to this was no, in Mexico we don't have state anthem. And, asked myself do we have? And started searching [Iz Hawai'i Anthem] and [Iz Hawaiian singer Hawai'i Anthem]<br /><br />Modern History of Hawai'i by Ann Rayson's book, mentions: What a Wonderful World” has also become an unofficial anthem of Hawai'i.

I kept this up for the other searches as it gives many of the answers. Only New Jersey has no anthem confirmed from a link on the wiki page at https://www.state.nj.us/faqs/facts.html/. There is an unofficial song “I’m From New Jersey,” which passed both Legislative Houses in 1972. However it was not signed into law by the Governor. https://www.50states.com/songs/newjerse.htm. (Virginia had no anthem between 1997-2015 as the pre-1997 one was racist). <br />In the UK (where I'm from) I know the national songs of Great Britain, Scotland and Wales. There is no separate anthem for England or Northern Ireland (although I think the song Jerusalem, lyrics by Blake, could almost suffice as it's often sang for England, and Danny Boy for Northern Ireland - but these aren't official). The Scottish anthem is national - but probably not official and very anti-English. <br /><br />2) Non-English US State anthems - looking through the Wikipedia list gave only two: Hawaii and a Spanish version for New Mexico (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Así_Es_Nuevo_México - confirmed from references at end)<br /><br />3) There are several national anthems in multiple languages - because there are multiple languages spoken in the country. There's a Quora question on this at https://www.quora.com/Do-any-national-anthems-use-multiple-languages - found with a search for [ multi-language anthem ]. <br /><br />The South African National Anthem Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika is in 5 different languages for the same anthem (Zulu, Xhosa, Sesetho, Afrikaans and English) with each verse in a different language. (Lyrics at https://www.gov.za/about-sa/national-symbols/national-anthem). This song is apparently a combination of two anthems with the Afrikaans / English bits coming from the earlier anthem "The Call of South Africa (Die Stem van Suid-Afrika)"<br />The New Zealand anthem is usually sung in two languages - English and Maori with the first verse in Maori and the next in English. However, in reality there are two anthems - one English and one Maori. <br />The Canadian anthem "O Canada" also has two versions and generally now a dual language version is sung i.e. French & English. (Sources: Quora and follow-on links / search to confirm). <br />Suriname may also be multi-lingual according to http://listserv.linguistlist.org/pipermail/lgpolicy-list/2006-May/003054.html which lists such anthems. (Same search as found Quora links). <br />One oddity is India's national anthem that is not sung in Hindi - the official language, but in the original language it was written in by Rabindranath Tagore i.e. Bengali. <br /><br />4) Oldest - define oldest. Oldest lyrics? Oldest music? Oldest official song? The oldest official anthem is the Dutch anthem written between 1569-1572 (found via a search for [ "oldest national anthem" ] - see https://www.netherlandsandyou.nl/about-the-kingdom/facts-about-the-netherlands/national-anthem. However, God Save the Queen (UK) beats it as the oldest official anthem as the Dutch one only became official in 1932, and the UK one since 1745. (See also https://about-history.com/list-of-the-10-oldest-national-anthems-in-our-history/). The music for God Save the Queen is much older and the origins of the melody have been traced to a medieval plainsong chant and on, through a carol, to a tune by the Elizabethan, John Bull who died in 1628. https://www.historytoday.com/archive/god-save-queen-history-national-anthem<br /><br />5) Searched for [ song that closes hawaii concerts ] and quickly came up with Hawaii Aloha e.g. https://www.hawaiimagazine.com/content/song-you-need-know-hawaii and then searched for videos with "Hawaii Aloha" "Bruddah iz" and got https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_17vGYa81s<br />The Hawaii state anthem is not in his discography so he may never have been recorded singing it. <br /><br />Arthur Weisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10213417718516627413noreply@blogger.com
