Oy, @Norwayhibs any chance ae a reply then?

Oops Sorry Harlem , the Norwegians are very much in favour of the monarchy, and can’t see that changing anytime soon. The kings song to the tune of gstq is not sung that often, normally at the international games the normal national anthem is sung, no idea why the other was used last night.

Thxfor the info @Norwayhibs

So emboldened by the news, I went a wee bit further in Wikipedia... turns out GSTQ/K is a ditty that has been used by several countries (Luxemburg too!) as a nat anth.

Cos it's so easy to sing, it says there.

I find it impossible to sing.
