Both the tune and the lyrics are most often cridited to Henry Carey, 1740, but this is very controversial; the British Monarchy itself does not hold to this theory, rather voting on the side of 'anonymous'. The French encyclopaedia Quid cites Jean-Baptiste Lully as the music composer.

England has never officially adopted a national anthem, even though 'God save the Queen/King' was the very first. Anthems became a craze that other countries soon followed.
