After the original version failed to make any headway into the British music charts [i wonder why], Johnny recorded an pro British alternative version, funnily enough it was the U.S. version that gets the most plays

Remember that even though USA won the battle, that Britain had gotten the best of the war which ended up as a stalemate. the only loser was the American Indians.

The Americans won the culture war......a lot of things I like are American or inspired by American culture. Canadians do contribute atleast. I read Japanese comics and watch anime,,,,,that too was inspired by American culture as well. Most movies, comics ,TV shows, music, food, ect.....

It was a drawl.....the original American objective was to take over upper Canada was it not ?I would say we won the war of 1812. ^_^otherwise I would be American and not Canadian. War is hell and both sides lost good young men for nothing !

Great song but it ain't accurate this songs aim was to get US schoolchildren into US history.If anyone cares to look at some other sites with guys re inacting the battle and listening to US historians story's on it NO Brits ran.The mistake the Brits made was not carrying enough ladders to get to the Americans on the high ground the 93rd Highland regiment stood in front of the US cannons waiting for troops coming with the ladders by the time they came nearly all the highlanders lay dead or dying.These guys were the elite veterans of the Napoleonic wars they do not run way this regiment in the Crimean war stopped 4000 Russian cavalry in their tracks.Whoever stopped the Scots would have been proud and a story to tell the grandchildren

When will the Americans accept the fact that they lost the war of 1812! If the US had won they'd have a lot more Canadian territory then Detroit! I mean they'd have all the way up to NWT and the Yukon

You do know that Americans are technically Europeans unless you have any American Indian blood in you

During this war the British considered the Americans as rebels because of the American Revolution
