This version is kinda shit, it's not a song that should be sung by a single singer. It's a big orchestral choir song, the more people that sing it, the better, huge stadiums in fact.

Yes this song is also where /r/greenandpleasant gets its name, partially ironic and partially because nobody wants to use "United Kingdom" for a leftist community, particularly when we'd want to replace it. Jerusalem is a song about that, claiming England is kinda naff and we must work tirelessly to improve it.
