When I was a child, my mother who was born in 1915, told me how hard it was for her to sing God Save the Queen when the Queen's father, George VI died and and Elizabeth ascended the throne. And now, here I am, 70 years later, having to learn to sing God Save the king
@@klimentpetrov8789 It is hard to believe. Queen Elizabeth was loved in the US as much as she was in Britain and maybe more. She was the number one celebraty in the US for decades.
She never forgot that a monarch was not a ruler, but a servant bound by duty to serve her people and her nation. Especially in an age where the role was largely ceremonial, she never forgot that and maintained the dignity of office and the nation in that service.
Well the monarchs of Britain are no rulers because they are basically disempowered. They have some theoretical powers left they do not dare to use as they fear they might be removed as well in that case. They are allowed a lot of privileges they can use to increase their personal wealth as their symbolic role is believed to stabilize society by those in power.
The Queen has certainly done a lot to the british commonwealth, and now she lies resting peacefully with his beloved husband. May she rest in peace until the end of time.
I am not from the UK, but I have always had the greatest respect for Queen Elizabeth. She is missed, she was a great asset to the UK. It made me sad to hear that this is the last time we will hear God Save the Queen.
In the UK we've moved on. Considering the 10 day mourning bullshit we had to endure, where according to the BBC and ITV news nothing else happened in the world.......life in the UK got back to normal pretty damn quickly.
@@LynneFowler-h1g ? You mean in my life? Well I've raised a family, own my own home bought through our efforts and have a good job. The new king and old queen however had everything handed to them on a plate. Was your previous reply actually your best effort?
I am an American but when someone said the Queen I automatically knew who they were speaking of. She was the only Queen for me given I am now 72 years old. With her passing an era of duty with dignity came to an end.
@@potatouno And? I was responding to the dumb original comment who was saying God attempted to make Queenie live forever. God never made any such attempt. In fact, if he exists and if Queenies gone on to the next life, I doubt she's hanging out in the land the good people go to.
As an American that believes in our republic, I had and still have the utmost respect for Queen Elizabeth II. She was born a hereditary noblewoman, but she was truly nobility in spirit and deed. May she rest in peace.
She was one of the greatest women of the 20th century just as her great great grandmother was to the 19th…few heads of state had such quick wit or commanded such respect…
Noblesse Oblige is the term you are looking for. Her Royal Highness was not trained for the role as a child. She was the daughter of "The Spare". It was only after Her Uncle abdicated that She began training to be Monarch. Interestingly enough, Her Royal Highness exemplified the role of the Aristocracy in Britain. In direct contrast to the US, where money could buy exemption from Compulsory Service, the British Upper Class suffered the highest percentage of loss of any group during both World Wars.
God has indeed saved Queen Elizabeth II. Though I am an American citizen, I show deep respect, appreciation, and gratitude to her majesty as well as the royal family. Thank you for your service and you are now at peace with your beloved Phillip. Goodbye, your gracious majesty. Until we meet again.
I'm not British or Canadian, Australian or New Zealand but I've always admired Her Majesty The Queen. Actually, I have nothing to do with Her Majesty, I'm just one person who lives on the other side of the world but I always felt like I was the subject of Her Majesty. I still can't believe her era is over. I thank Her Majesty for all the hard work she has done. Some people said she was just a queen of another country, but to me, she was always THE Queen. I really miss her. Now I sincerely hope that His Majesty The King will do well. Long Live The King, and Rest In Peace, My Queen 🇰🇷🇬🇧
This is heartbreaking for me 💔 I still can’t believe we have lost our beloved Queen. Hearing the National Anthem, I still want to say God Save The Queen, even though we have a King 🇬🇧
It's a very sad fact - but she was profoundly loved and yes. I made the same mistake as well! We have lived through the second Elizabethan era. We have a King now and it's still early days of that. King Charles the Third is the Sovereign now. And this is likely to take time to get used to.
I think that it's not just the National Anthem - we should remember but also the hymn that defined Queen Elizabeth the Second. I vow to thee, my country - that hymn defined her service to our national life. And parts of this will resonate equally. With each other of us.
It will be a LONG TIME before there once again sits a Queen on the throne of the UK. A very long time. Could be as long as 100 years or more, and it would, of course, depend on who Prince George's firstborn child is. Remember, it was by no means written in the cards when Elizabeth was born that she was to someday become Queen. Life is a funny size, Ms Otton. And full of surprised. The question is, how King Charles will reign for.
I am an American and feel the loss greatly. She may not have been Queen here, but I daresay she has been the most important person anywhere of the 20th and possibly the 21st centuries. Her rule maintained the oft heard of stability, not only for England and the United Kingdom, but for so many around the world. Her gentle yet steady leadership will be sorely missed. As will the charismatic personality that she let shine through from time to time. The Queen is dead, long live the king.
I'm also an American, but I totally feel the loss too. Queen Elizabeth wasn't our head of state, but she was a faithful and dedicated friend of America and I believe I speak on behalf of the vast majority of Americans who will miss that now that she's dead (I know I certainly will). I hope King Charles will prove to be as good to us as his mother was, and in any case I hope our alliance with Britain remains strong. God Bless America and God Save the King!
@@hotwax9376 I also send my thanks to America, there are so many lovely comments I've read showing your respect for her. I don't think it's a void that can ever be filled, but I know she will always be loved. We miss her so much ❤
As a fellow kiwi I would like to interject that we need to rid ourselves of this vestige of our past and have a system of government unencumbered by anything to do with the British Royal Family. Having lived in many countries where the Queen visited not once was NZ/Aus/Can mentioned and thus the crown never represented us.
I'm not British, but every time "God Save The Queen' is played or sung, I sing along with pride. and that's when my tears fell unexpectedly. and this might be the last time i cry when the british national anthem is being played.
Ive never sang it, and im a brit living in the Uk. Never have, never will. Maybe one day they will write a national anthem that sings the praises of the people and country, rather than worships an individual. Then I will be able to join in.
@@pablohanc well she’s your monarch? we sing songs about our country and pride for our country (the monarch is the figurehead of yours) in many countries worldwide. maybe the respect towards her majesty is respect to the country, your fellow man.
I am one of Her Royal Majesty's Canadian subjects. I used to sing this at the beginning of each school day followed by Oh Canada. I went a school named after her where there was a a portrait of her up by the blackboard. So young and beautiful. This brings a tear to my eye and a sad and loving feeling to my heart. God Save The King!
You've been living in that world for nearly 2 years. I moved on pretty much straight away. Thankfully I was away on holiday for most of the mourning period so I got to miss the tiny number of prats that went past her coffin (250k out of a population of 70m).

As an Australian I learned to sing “God SAve the Queen”, now at the age of81 I have no idea of the words of our national anthem - sad but it is not an inspiring piece.
@@juliehock6059 As a Brit who grew up in Australia, we sang both God Save the Queen and Advance Australia Fair in school. Although, to be fair, the words have been changed since then - at least "the Queen" only changes one word :)
I am from the Philippines but I am as heartbroken as the British people and the Commonwealth. All my 67 years, she was the one constant in my life worldwide.
Just beautiful. A gorgeous, stirring rendition and a passing into history with the last time performing ‘God Save The Queen’ for the foreseeable future. Her Late Majesty was loved worldwide - 🐨🦘🇦🇺♥️
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was and always will be remembered as the Greatest Monarch to have reigned in any century. Many non commonwealth countries respected her as The Queen. King Charles III has very big shoes to try and fill. Long nay he reign.
I am still in shock of the death of Queen Elizabeth for in my entire life she was queen of Great Britain. I say this as an American.May she rest in peace.I still look for news about her because I am still in shock of her death.
I think I speak on behalf of all of us Britons, and also most of the world, when I say this: however dark the situation may be over in Ukraine, know that we stand with you, and will continue to stand with you. Slava Ukraini! Glory to Ukraine! (I hope I'm spelling that right)
She was, we were lucky to have lived at the same time as her and to have Her as Queen for so many years. RIP Queen Elizabeth II. Much missed, never to be forgotten.
@@archiebald4717 yes, we were, because we benefited from all the amazing things she did, such as making a speech occasionally, shaking hands with dignitaries, walking along a line of people and stopping to talk to one in every 5, cutting ribbons, drawing back curtains in front of a plaque......she was amazing!
Ah, thank you for clarifying that the performance was before she died. It made me teary to hear it, knowing what was soon to come. What a send-off it was, though, wow! Global respect and such heartfelt global well-wishes for her adventure ahead. She was a shining human example of a life of service.
@@SenyorCapitàCollons I don't know. I looked over the 2022 Proms schedule, but couldn't find anything about these bands' performance/s. The Proms ran from July 15th to the Queen's death (scheduled to end Sept.10th). No way to tell if it was during the Jubilee celebrations, or closer to the end. Maybe Benni knows.
@@SenyorCapitàCollons I just ran across this video the night the announcement was made at the Proms. So poignant. th-cam.com/video/QZ3ax8hOkZE/w-d-xo.html

Because she was a great figures that Thai people also respect. And also Thai people are very shock every time UK royal family have some incident or pass away. RIP HM Queen Elizabeth II
I am not british. But I have followed the queen since I was a kid. I know that the day will come one day, but it is a really sad day. Farewell Elisabeth! May you will be happy in heaven with your husband and your passed corkies
I know I’m a year and a half too late, but this is beautiful. May Queen Elizabeth 2 and her legacy never be forgotten for generations to come. Love from the USA 🇺🇸 ❤️
I still don't believe she's gone nearly 2 years on. When I saw the flag coming down my heart sank & I started to cry that day. I knew it was bad when they interrupted with the BBC!!
I'm proud that her majesty was my queen for virtually all my life. In death she was driven along the Kingsway in Dundee where I stood aged five with my school class to cheer her after her coronation.🏵️
I think if you have meaning with this song, you'll sing it again..just sadly, not with the name "queen"...the Queen touched all of us and still does after her passing. I hope you rable to sing the song again but with "king" God Bless
Britain is a wonderful country which i like very much. No other country has such a fascinating history than Britain. And yes i say that expressly: Britain was/is a force for the good of this world.
Yes Shane,, and when I visited Hong Kong so many years ago... hearing God Save the Queen made me feel like I'm at home. I lived at that time in 6 and 1/4 mile Taipo Road Shatin lol.. big city now..
I have a soft spot for old hongkong movies. I still remember seeing the queens portrait in the polices offices. Man i miss those days when younger me watching hongkong movies on tube TV
This will honestly be the last time live that we hear this in our lifetime. Only God Save the King will be heard for the next hundred years or so most likely.
We were blessed with such a wonderful Queen. Rest In Peace Elizabeth II, we will never forget you and you will always be in our hearts. Thank God for you
We live in Central Georgia, USA. My husband was in the hospital. I saw on the news before I went to see him that day that Her Majesty had passed. I went into his room and turned his TV to CNN. One of his nurses came in & saw the news and broke down in tears. The nurse was from a Commonwealth Island. He had not seen the news yet that day. 😿

An American, I may be, but HRM Queen Elizabeth II was, and still remains posthumously, such an inspiration, someone ALL women could look up to and be proud to be a fellow female. May she rest peacefully and with power.
@@kelvinpell4571 Yeah, but they weren't the Queen Regnant of England. That woman spent her entire life serving her country in every way she could, and RULED her country for how many decades?? I have alot more respect for HRM Queen Elizabeth II than Nancy Pelosi, no offense to those how favor Nancy, but I feel like HRM Queen Elizabeth did more for her country, and for a considerably longer period of time, and made considerably more of a difference in the world than Nancy Pelosi. Hey, if you feel like Nancy is the more respectable choice for girls as a role model, that is your choice, that is your decision, that is your opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own choices, decisions, and opinions, and I am not going to disrespect your personal feelings on the issue. I am hoping you will extend the same courtesy to me. And if you re read my comment, yes - I only mentioned Queen Elizabeth II, but I never said she was thr ONLY good female role model who has ever lived. There are so many others, too. She is one of them, in my humble opinion, and considering the nature of the video clip in question, I was keeping my thoughts and comments on the person in question. Hope you are having an amazing day.
@@kelvinpell4571Honestly, HRM Queen Elizabeth II was on the throne for nearly 71 years, and was a grown woman when she ascended to said Throne. She was 96 when shebpassed 2 years ago. Nancy Pelosi is 84 RIGHT NOW. Queen Elizabeth did alot more as the Queen during said nearly 71 year reign than Nancy Pelosi has done in her entire life. I'm not saying Nancy Pelosinis awonderful or horrible at her job, I know she has done things for the U.S, but hasn't had nearly as long of a career and hasn't done as much as the Queen. There are alot of American women whom I have alot ofnrespect for, in history. Queen Elizabeth II made history in alot of ways.

@@pablohanc you really are a sad sick person who has no clue 🤷🏻♀️
She spent millions so her son could evade justice. That's not grace.
G'day from Australia - there is a lot of love for our late great Queen here. Rest in peace, Your Majesty.
As an Australian I learned to sing “God SAve the Queen”, now at the age of81 I have no idea of the words of our national anthem - sad but it is not an inspiring piece.
@@juliehock6059 As a Brit who grew up in Australia, we sang both God Save the Queen and Advance Australia Fair in school. Although, to be fair, the words have been changed since then - at least "the Queen" only changes one word :)
I am from the Philippines but I am as heartbroken as the British people and the Commonwealth. All my 67 years, she was the one constant in my life worldwide.
Salamat po Marilou...
QE... Your Majesty...thank you eternally for your gesture on 9/12/01 for us Yanks.
Godspeed.
Just beautiful. A gorgeous, stirring rendition and a passing into history with the last time performing ‘God Save The Queen’ for the foreseeable future. Her Late Majesty was loved worldwide - 🐨🦘🇦🇺♥️
Elizabeth II, by the Grace of Almighty God, Queen, Defender of the Faith. A Great Queen in our times.
"Defender of the Faith" how do you figure? Britain saw the biggest moral decline in history under her reign.
@@adamahrens4320 F.D. The moral decline was the people, not their Queen.
@@adamahrens4320Queen Elizabeth defended the church and monarchy to her dying day
@@markgordon5387. No it was her children. Adultery, divorce, pedophilia, sibling rivalry, and that’s just the four of them!
@@ForgetMeNot2022. Her son is a confessed adulterer now head of the church. Lizzy allowed him to accept this position. Bye 9th commandment!
God bless you ma’am I will never ever never forget you QUEEN OF THE WORLD 🌎 😢😢😢😢
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was and always will be remembered as the Greatest Monarch to have reigned in any century. Many non commonwealth countries respected her as The Queen.
King Charles III has very big shoes to try and fill. Long nay he reign.
What a Freudian slip 😂
@@llchapman1234 , who knows what K C lll gets up to with Q C in private after tamp gate
To be fair, she doesn't have much competition, being preceded mainly by a bunch of psychotic cxxts.
@@wayneclacey4706who cares! He has a life.
I'm American and I loved the queen
It still feels unreal. Almost 6 months without her, and we need her so badly. Rest in peace ma'am, snd thank you, for everything
I am still in shock of the death of Queen Elizabeth for in my entire life she was queen of Great Britain. I say this as an American.May she rest in peace.I still look for news about her because I am still in shock of her death.
She was one helluva woman!
People will watch this in a thousand years time and reminisce about the greatest sovereign to ever grace these blessed isles
She was deeply admired all over the world as THE QUEEN! Including here in far away Brazil! RIP!
While I'm an ardent Irish Republican, I shall miss Queen Elizabeth II for her humour, kindness and love of humanity.
God save the Queen ! God save the King! God save UK! Heartly greetings and BIG THANKS from Ukraine !
I think I speak on behalf of all of us Britons, and also most of the world, when I say this: however dark the situation may be over in Ukraine, know that we stand with you, and will continue to stand with you. Slava Ukraini! Glory to Ukraine! (I hope I'm spelling that right)
@@gdbobbyt2088 yes, you spelled correctly. Thank you and once again - long live UK !
Hello from Estonia we love Ukraine and UK
@@kristjan2002 Tere :) Estonia rules!

I'm an American and I am so sad the Queen died. she was an amazing woman.
Well you still have Queen Latifah
@@rajivmurkejee7498 NOT
She was, we were lucky to have lived at the same time as her and to have Her as Queen for so many years. RIP Queen Elizabeth II. Much missed, never to be forgotten.
Get out you loyalist redcoat.
@@archiebald4717 yes, we were, because we benefited from all the amazing things she did, such as making a speech occasionally, shaking hands with dignitaries, walking along a line of people and stopping to talk to one in every 5, cutting ribbons, drawing back curtains in front of a plaque......she was amazing!
What a great lady. Queen to the world.
We miss Her! Love from Canada!
This is a comfort. Thanks for keeping the video posted.
Ah, thank you for clarifying that the performance was before she died. It made me teary to hear it, knowing what was soon to come. What a send-off it was, though, wow! Global respect and such heartfelt global well-wishes for her adventure ahead. She was a shining human example of a life of service.
Was her illness already known when this was played?
@@SenyorCapitàCollons I don't know. I looked over the 2022 Proms schedule, but couldn't find anything about these bands' performance/s. The Proms ran from July 15th to the Queen's death (scheduled to end Sept.10th). No way to tell if it was during the Jubilee celebrations, or closer to the end. Maybe Benni knows.
@@SenyorCapitàCollons I just ran across this video the night the announcement was made at the Proms. So poignant.
th-cam.com/video/QZ3ax8hOkZE/w-d-xo.html
@@SenyorCapitàCollons the news reports in the weeks before Queen bettys death were saying she had mobility issues.
Anyway, she's gone now, and despite the people on tv saying life would never be the same again.....life's gone back to normal.
@@pablohanc found the asshole.
Rest in Peace great queen. Queen Elizabeth II the world lost a treasure.
God bless our late Queen Elizabeth. Long Live The King😢😢
God lead the Queen to heaven!🕯
God save the King! 🇬🇧
Elle nous manque tellement. Reposez en paix, Madame !
De France.
La extrañamos todos 😢el mundo entero ❤
As a Thai living one day faster than British people. I heard the news at morning news in Channel 3. I was heartbroken when I hear the news. Because she was a great figures that Thai people also respect. And also Thai people are very shock every time UK royal family have some incident or pass away. RIP HM Queen Elizabeth II
I am an American and this made me cry. Elizabeth was queen virtually my whole life and gave stability to our world.
I am not british. But I have followed the queen since I was a kid. I know that the day will come one day, but it is a really sad day. Farewell Elisabeth! May you will be happy in heaven with your husband and your passed corkies
Give me chills. This is beautiful.
I miss Her Majesty 😢😢
I was heartbroken when I heard the news. She was such an inspiration to all of us
I know I’m a year and a half too late, but this is beautiful. May Queen Elizabeth 2 and her legacy never be forgotten for generations to come. Love from the USA 🇺🇸 ❤️
I still don't believe she's gone nearly 2 years on. When I saw the flag coming down my heart sank & I started to cry that day. I knew it was bad when they interrupted with the BBC!!
I'm proud that her majesty was my queen for virtually all my life. In death she was driven along the Kingsway in Dundee where I stood aged five with my school class to cheer her after her coronation.🏵️
She was Queen for lierally my whole life!! I was born the year she ascended the throne!
May the Lord forever Bless You, Your Majesty!
She will always be THE QUEEN ❤
I’m American and I’m sad that the Queen is gone. RIP Your Majesty 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you mate
I still can't believe I'll never sing these words again....
I think if you have meaning with this song, you'll sing it again..just sadly, not with the name "queen"...the Queen touched all of us and still does after her passing. I hope you rable to sing the song again but with "king" God Bless
Britain is a wonderful country which i like very much.
No other country has such a fascinating history than Britain.
And yes i say that expressly: Britain was/is a force for the good of this world.
America could never💀 ( coming from an American)
Will you please tell the woke idiots destroying our country that?
I'm not from United Kingdom, but I missed her Majesty the Queen 👑🥺
RIP Queen Elizabeth II and rest in heavenly eternal peace ☮️
I’m a Hong Kong, still heartbreaking to hear this anthem. God bless her majesty the queen Elizabeth II and rest in peace
Yes Shane,, and when I visited Hong Kong so many years ago... hearing God Save the Queen made me feel like I'm at home. I lived at that time in 6 and 1/4 mile Taipo Road Shatin lol.. big city now..
I have a soft spot for old hongkong movies. I still remember seeing the queens portrait in the polices offices. Man i miss those days when younger me watching hongkong movies on tube TV
We all miss you Her Majesty.May you rest in peace.
Your Majesty.
Even now, in June 2024 I miss her and think about her. I hope her new realm is relaxing and free of engagements.
This will honestly be the last time live that we hear this in our lifetime. Only God Save the King will be heard for the next hundred years or so most likely.
More like eighty or so, but long after I am gone.
Two years later, and American…and this brought me to tears, even now. God bless you all.
Obviously not much of an American
Same here as an Australian 🇦🇺 God Bless our Glorious Queen
@@PeterJohn-hl3ox quite right. We landed in 1648. Barely been here long enough to count.
She was the QUEEN of HEARTS. God bless her soul.
The Queen now belongs to the Ages
Somehow the world is more empty and broken without her.
I'm not a British but every time their national anthems plays I always think of The Queen where she is the one I witnessed since my birth
We were blessed with such a wonderful Queen. Rest In Peace Elizabeth II, we will never forget you and you will always be in our hearts. Thank God for you
My heart breaks for the loss of the queen she was someone I looked up to and admired
I remember as a kid after we saw the film in the cinema we would all stand up and sing god save the queen, ah those were the days.
Yea - to the sceen of the Queen in uniform (red) and on a horse . - Changing of the guard???
@@alisterbennett you have a good memory
We live in Central Georgia, USA. My husband was in the hospital. I saw on the news before I went to see him that day that Her Majesty had passed. I went into his room and turned his TV to CNN. One of his nurses came in & saw the news and broke down in tears. The nurse was from a Commonwealth Island. He had not seen the news yet that day. 😿
I'm a Filipino and this is so heartbreaking moment. We lost a great person, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Truly a great loss for the Commonwealth and the world
Mabuhay ang Reyna! 👑🇵🇭❤️🇬🇧👑
@@costanvaarwel8932 she's been dead a month th and already life's totally gone back to normal.
Bone chilling everytime... So powerful
Grief is the price we pay for Love. 🥺💔
The Queen herself said that.
For a Britain it really reminds me of the queen
R.I.P QUEEN ELIZABETH THE 2ND
Our Queen was simply the best ❤️🤍💙💯
My deep condolences to the People of the United Kingdom for the sensitive death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 2, the Greatest Queen in all of World History
Thank you. Truly appreciated by many I am sure. She was loved by so many across the Globe. I miss her a lot but we were fortunate to have her so long.
Cleopatra was better.
@@sarac.3259
Auch wenn es sehr traurig ist, Gott schenkte ihr ein langes Leben, ja, dafür sollte man auch dankbar sein.
Wir werden sie vermissen! 👑 😥
God save the King !
@@pablohanc
Was bist denn du für einer?
@@Nordiccat-007 someone who doesn't believe in the hereditary right to rule over others. Saying cleopatra was sarcasm, I don't believe any kings or queens should exist.
So schön das jeder aufsteht und mitsingt. God Save your King. Greatings from Darmstadt Germany. Markus
Still sends shivers down my spine when I hear it
I can't believe she gone she was such a inspiration to us all in England Ireland and Scotland and countries in the commonwealth she will be sadly missed
Wait a Minute...
The Festival for 150 Royal Albert Hall (as clearly is seen displayed on the organ) was 1,5 Years before Her Majesty passed away.
An American, I may be, but HRM Queen Elizabeth II was, and still remains posthumously, such an inspiration, someone ALL women could look up to and be proud to be a fellow female. May she rest peacefully and with power.
What DO you mean Fiona.....you have AOC and Pelosi to look up to!
@@kelvinpell4571 Yeah, but they weren't the Queen Regnant of England. That woman spent her entire life serving her country in every way she could, and RULED her country for how many decades?? I have alot more respect for HRM Queen Elizabeth II than Nancy Pelosi, no offense to those how favor Nancy, but I feel like HRM Queen Elizabeth did more for her country, and for a considerably longer period of time, and made considerably more of a difference in the world than Nancy Pelosi. Hey, if you feel like Nancy is the more respectable choice for girls as a role model, that is your choice, that is your decision, that is your opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own choices, decisions, and opinions, and I am not going to disrespect your personal feelings on the issue. I am hoping you will extend the same courtesy to me. And if you re read my comment, yes - I only mentioned Queen Elizabeth II, but I never said she was thr ONLY good female role model who has ever lived. There are so many others, too. She is one of them, in my humble opinion, and considering the nature of the video clip in question, I was keeping my thoughts and comments on the person in question. Hope you are having an amazing day.
@@kelvinpell4571Honestly, HRM Queen Elizabeth II was on the throne for nearly 71 years, and was a grown woman when she ascended to said Throne. She was 96 when shebpassed 2 years ago. Nancy Pelosi is 84 RIGHT NOW. Queen Elizabeth did alot more as the Queen during said nearly 71 year reign than Nancy Pelosi has done in her entire life. I'm not saying Nancy Pelosinis awonderful or horrible at her job, I know she has done things for the U.S, but hasn't had nearly as long of a career and hasn't done as much as the Queen. There are alot of American women whom I have alot ofnrespect for, in history. Queen Elizabeth II made history in alot of ways.
