Now THAT's how you respect BOTH nations with both anthems being played.
@Kyle Connell I can see why that is.
It probably had a signal that went across the Canadian border.
@@hotwax9376 Of course, Canadian television stations whose signals went across the border into the US _never_ played the American anthem, for obvious reasons.
I love how both national anthems were done, especially the American once since I'm American!
Funny thing about the anthems....they kind of sound like they were performed at a hockey game, cause they have that kind of spirit in mind, especially O Canada. XB
Either ray castoldi or dieter ruehle on the keyboards. Sounds just like it. 2 hockey organists
United States:
O say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
Canada:
O Canada!
Our home and native land
True patriot love in all of us command
With glowing hearts, we see thee rise
The True North strong and free
From far and wide
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee
God keep our land glorious and free
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee
I remember being up in the night because I couldn't sleep and this would be on. We only had 2, 5, 7, and 12 for stations back then. I would always get caught and mom would get up and shut the TV off. It was always the National Anthem that did me in and woke her up lol.
I remember that time when I was living in Maine and I had my TV in my bedroom one late night when I was supposed to be asleep and I saw this. But right when it ended, I could hear my dad yelling, "WYMAN! TURN THE TV OFF AND GO TO SLEEP!" I was scared plum out of my wits.
I feel bad for you 😔
Bonus note....that building in this video IS the WLBZ building. The picture for it was taken in the 'backyard', as it's the rear of the station. =B
great
Backyahhhhd you mean
@@umop3plsdn I was born in New Brunswick, right next door to Maine, so there's a chance I could say ' arrière-cour ' instead, as French is one of the 2 official languages of that province. ;)
Wow-WLBZ actually made an effort this time...a few years earlier, they just ran a shot of the respective national flag flying over the anthems...
I liked that WLBZ decided to give a shout-out to it's neighbouring Canadian province during this time....though, eventually, O Canada was cut from the anthems played, especially around 2002 or so. =P
Most of the US based TV stations viewable in Canada, when signing on and off, they play both national anthems (either vocal or instrumental, in 1 or both)
this station definetly serve(s)(d) a part of canada 😮
It's nice that both anthems were played
Man those were the days when WLBZ & WVII-TV (ABC affiliate of Bangor) used to broadcast Canadian commercials (at least from the provinces of New Brunswick & Nova Scotia).
I love both anthems even though im an american!🇺🇸
The scenery is cool!
I hope the recording of both anthems is used next season in the NHL - some of the singers this year were God awful, especially that one singer who messed up the words to O Canada when we played the Panthers in March. Would rather have a band, orchestra, or organist with the fans singing along. Nice sign-off mate!
Sounds Like The Moog Version Oh Canada Is like a Organ
I really wish they would bring this back. Ending the broadcast day, and ending it off with the US and Canadian National Anthem played on the border stations.
Same! (It was really amazing and quite a sight to see the border stations in both our countries, especially the US, acknowledge each others' nations in their own unique way with the anthem sequences.)
I like the church organ sound on "O Canada," and hearing it always makes me wish that "America the Beautiful"' was our anthem instead of "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Happy Memorial Day 2019, Americans!
those synth covers are dope, very british sounding
That shows Some repect Both nations
a very PLANT good night...creepy
Proud To Be an Americans!
NOW LET'S DROP THE PUCK!
Americans, Happy Independence Day 2019!
Speak for yourself, John. 😛
Be careful! There are subliminal messages built into the flag that say: "subscribe to this channel"
(that was a joke, jabbing at the many "subliminal messages in our national anthem" hoax videos.)
And you have to consider the thousands of people in New Brunswick who receive the Channel 2 signal.
Now I want to go to the mall.
🥰
America And Canada are neighbors
@@Amoore-vv9wx Bruh
And this station is in Maine, one of the states that borders Canada. I suspect their signal extended across the border, hence why the two anthems.
@@hotwax9376 I mean we are so far up there we might as well be Canada lol
@@umop3plsdn My state also borders Canada, so I know what you mean.
Let’s unite the two!
So did all US TV stations play the US national anthem on closedown?
Yes they do, except for cross-border stations they play both the US and also the Canadian as well as Mexican anthems as a mark of respect for their viewers on the other side, which is quite special...
goodbye WLBZ 2 (whart logo was?)
Is this an American channel?
Why both anthems?
Because maybe WLBZ might get some coverage in Canada even though it is an American channel. So they play both anthems.
@@PawIncTH-cam oh thanks
@@PawIncTH-cam New Brunswick is not that far from Bangor. I think the border is about 20 to 30 miles away, but the station signal goes into A good chunk of New Brunswick.

Do you have a link to one without a watermark in the bottom-right corner?
Why is the NBC logo on the test pattern anyway?
NBC affiliate...that means, they could do that then, and still could now if they still signed off. =P
Ragin' Ronic did they ever go into static when they signed off each night?
@@hollypietrzak5214 If you picked up the channel over the air(by antenna connection to your TV), yes...if by watching on cable TV, which is the only way the vast majority of Canadians MUST watch any NBC affiliate, no.
=P
Ragin' Ronic did they ever air Tom brokaw on here before?
@@hollypietrzak5214 Yes...back in 1990, the NBC Nightly News was anchored by Tom Brokaw, from April 5, 1982, with Roger Mudd being with him from that date to Sept. 2, 1983, and then on his own from Sept. 5, 1983 to Dec. 1, 2004, when he stepped down from the anchor chair.

I still think our anthem is better.
