    This song was sung at my son Ross's funeral. He died aged 24 years old in a road traffic accident. He played Rugby for Wisbech Grammar School and Wisbech Town. I think it would be nice for pupils that played for schools and towns that didn't make it to adult life to be acknowledge in some way. I received no acknowledgement for the commitment my son gave to his school rugby team or the town he played for.

    I can't speak for anyone else but as a 50 year old black man I hope England fans continue singing this song. I'm well aware of its historic meaning and its one of the reasons my late mother who came to Britain in the 1950s enjoyed watching games with me. I've been a rugby fan since playing at school in the 80s, to me rugby has always been inclusive and about unity, something we all need during these difficult and divisive times. I don't know anyone who is or has ever been offended by its use so to see so many comments claiming its black people who want a ban is disappointing but as mentioned above I'm only speaking for myself. I can't figure out who wants it banned, I thought with my limited knowledge of BLM that the movement promoted equality and unity. The original message seems to have been highjacked by those who want the exact opposite and from the derogatory comments I've read they seem to be achieving their aim. Shame.

    The fact that a song about emancipation, written by a slave, has become the anthem of hope and unity representing our multicultural team and nation is incredible. Far from banning it, it should be the national anthem. We sing this to remember the horrors that England inflicted, but use it’s message of emancipation to free ourselves from the past and create a brighter future together.

      England didn't inflict any horrors, British traders did, but no slaves were in Britain since circa 1066. Britain managed to force the western nations to stop the slavery trade as it was abhorrent to our people using the power of it's navy. The first nation to attempt and succeed in this quest.

    Mark 13:26-27

    [27]And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

    As an Englisman this soothes me when I hear the crowd sing it during tense games. It gave me goosebumps when I sang it with my countrymen at Twickenham. I like to think that Rugby Union is the most inclusive sport in the world, after all, the man who bought the game into the modern era was a black Polynesian winger - he was widely regarded as one of the best ever. If you think this song is inappropriate for a crowd favourite of England because of its origin, fair enough, that's your opinion. But please don't be so quick to take something away that means a lot to so many as well.

      I think the main reason is that the song was written by a slave, and is understood to be about slaves escaping unimaginable horror and crossing the Ohio River (like biblical Jordan) to get to freedom. In light of the immense weight the song carries, singing it at a rugby match devalues the experiences of the people that it was written for.
      Not to mention England did a lot for slavery, the people kidnapped and sent to America were often transported on English slave ships, and English slavers pioneered technology that allowed more slaves to be packed into these ships for maximum return, establishing the rapid growth of the institution of slavery. Some of their legacy is still visible today eg Edward Colston.
      So to co-opt an African-American spiritual for English rugby is offensive to the memory of these slaves who were kidnapped, tortured, raped, branded and killed in the name of free labour.
      Hope this was informative

      @@davidcurrie3929 England had a big role in Slavery, English ships transported slaves as they had access to a lot of transatlantic trade routes. The fact that the empire banned slavery 40 years before the yanks did means nothing, it went on for centuries. You should look up the Atlantic triangular slave trade names London, Liverpool and Bristol (i.e Edward Colston and co) as cities that not only took part but pioneered slave ship technology.
      England cannot wash its hands of the suffering it inflicted on a large number of people.

      +benthetoastman , they'll be fine without him. Webb is over rated imo. I don't like Phillips but he's a big game player, and not a bad player to fall back on. Consider the fact that everyone is writing them off, could lead to complacency.

    Ok, no one is going to believe me when I say this but…
    I was actually one of the backing voices for this song cover. Here’s my story…
    Back in 2015, there was a competition between different singing groups to participate in this song. Basically all that the groups had to do was perform their own version of Swing Low Sweet Chariot. Well, I was a part of the Gloucester Gang Show which was one of the few groups selected to take part in this cover of the song. Despite the fact that I was really young at the time (I think I may have been only 9 years old) I was one of the five from our group who was randomly selected out of a hat to go (they only had limited slots which is why the whole group didn’t get to go, just wanted to clarify)
    The actual experience of recording the song is still one of the coolest things I have ever done. We went to THE Abbey Road Studios and recorded the song there (which coincidentally sparked my love for The Beatles and Pink Floyd) and we also got to meet Ella Eyre. I can’t find the video anywhere but there was a promotional video for this song which featured the different groups on the day we recorded and in the video you can see me making Ella laugh at something (I couldn’t tell you what though 😅). Either way, this moment will forever stick out to me as one of the coolest and most memorable days of my life. In the years since, I have lost the ability to sing (my voice got deeper and I no longer had the passion to really train my deeper voice) but this will forever remain as a nice little archive for me
    Anyway, I just thought I’d share my story because some of you may find it interesting. And if any of you know of that promotional video I spoke of, please tell me where to find it as I don’t know where to look

    The Origins of the song for England - 1988
    The Twickenham crowd had only seen one solitary England try in the previous two years and at half time against Ireland they were 0-3 down. However during the second half England scored six tries to give them a 35-3 win. Three of the tries came in quick succession from Chris Oti making his Twickenham debut.
    A group of boys from the Benedictine school Douai following a tradition at their school games sang "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" whenever a try was scored. When Oti scored his second try, amused spectators standing close to the boys joined in, and when Oti scored his hat-trick the song was heard around the ground
