message: I observe that this section is becoming a list of football clubs showing their similar variants of "We all follow ... over land and sea". The whole could be reorganised better if this is going to be done. Peripheral to this, it could be confusing when a pair of these clubs play each other and singing starts!

replies: text: Aye, and the  'We hate [insert hated club's name], we hate [insert another hated club's name] too, we hate [insert yet another hated club's name], but [insert beloved club's name] we love you' chant is rather ubiquitous in English, & possibly British, football at most every level. It seems odd to tie it to one particular club. Gwladys24 (talk) 15:56, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

message: We have to be careful here.  The UK is a State of union between nations.  The Land Of Hope and Glory is the compound "British" union. 
 Not just the English bit.  There is no English Monarch.  The Queen is not "Queen of England".
"..   With what our sires have won ;
    The blood a hero sire hath spent.."
England can not be allowed to get away with hi-jacking the British Empire, no matter how often they conflate the words and meanings of England/Britain.
When Blake wrote "Jerusalem" with its England's Mountains, are you sure he didn't mean the entire island and not just little old England?
"..thine Empire shall be strong.. "
There was no "English Empire".  It was the British Empire, won in no small measure by Scots and Welsh troops as well as Englishmen.
Remove the exceptional contribution by the philosophers, bankers, businessmen, architects, philanthropists, church ministers, politicians, shipbuilders, engineers and inventors from Scotland, and there would be much less glory in the old Empire.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.104.243.253 (talk) 22:40, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

message: What is the relevance of Cecil Rhodes to the song? The text only says that Rhodes's will was published at the same time as the song, and contains a similar sentiment. This doesn't establish any particular connection between the two, and so doesn't appear to be relevant. Marnanel (talk) 01:46, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

message: I removed the sentence that stated "Professional wrestler 'Macho Man' Randy Savage was famed for using 'Land of Hope and Glory' as his entrance music." In the U.S., where Savage was from, the tune of "Land of Hope and Glory" which was Savage's entrance music is known as "Pomp and Circumstance", without the England-themed lyrics. See this book published by World Wrestling Entertainment and Savage's New York Times obituary. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 21:39, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
