    I don't know if it's been posted before, but I have heard it before. There's also another one out there of the engine playing "we are the champions" after their 2005 victory.

    Damn. I was hoping it would be the Sex Pistols version.

    "My country tis over thee" is the song that it is playing.

    That was cool. However, as mentioned before, the song is My Country Tis of Thee...which seems strange because Renault is French, that's an American song...oh well. If I were them I'd want to be an American too. Gotta love ur country.

    Yes, and "God save the Queen", sung to the same music,
    And Oben am jungen Rhein, national anthem of Liechtenstein, sung to the same music,
    And Heil dir im Siegerkranz, national anthem of the German Empire from 1871 to 1918, sung to the same music,
    And Molitva russkikh, considered to be the first Russian anthem, sung to the same music.

    A lot of early American songs had their melodies taken from "familiar roots" as it were. America's national anthem, The Star Spangled Banner, borrows its melody from "The Anacreontic Song"

    (All references borrowed from Wikipedia, which probably borrowed them from elsewhere.)

    I would take issue that the German Empire had its Anthem the same as God Save the Queen / King.... I know a member of the Hohenzollern's and he has told me that Deutchland uber alles is "their" song??? Hitler had the Horst wessles...when Schumacher won a race and they plaid DUA.... I always thought of my friend Freddy...or Friedrich Wilhelm VII - he is the German "pretender" to the throne. - and a really nice guy too! His sister is Super Hot... she is a German TV host....

    Parts of DUA have been used as the national anthem of Germany since 1922. I'll have to check my Tivo to see the races Schumacher ran between 1871 and 1918, as I apparently missed them. ;)
