TIL that Estonia and Finland have the same national anthems, just with different lyrics and key signatures.

@adoran2 yes, last week Finland met Estonia in football and it is kind of awkward to hear the same anthem twice ๐
@tkoola Oh, thatโs superb! Does everyone sing both times, so you just get a clash of words?
@adoran2 I think both are respectful enough to only sing on their own turn ๐. In Finland, some people would like to use Finlandia by Jean Sibelius as national anthem, but I think anthems shouldn't be that hard to sing and Maamme is just perfect. Finlandia was briefly anthem for nation of Biafra back in the late 60โs
