Rule Britannia

You've never heard as irreverent a version of Rule Britannia as this one by Russ Conway.

That man could play the pinanner.
I was not aware of him until today, in the way of full disclosure. It would be easy to goggle around for five minutes and then sort of make it sound like I knew of him for decades. But I'm trying out this "honesty" thing people talk about, it may be something.

His wikipedia page uses this wonderful term: "annus mirabilis". It's a useful term, and also a funny one. 1666 was called a "wonderful year" despite great calamities like the great London fire. Very English thing.
