Neil Young and Crazy Horse “cover” the national anthem of Great Britain and the Royal Anthem of both Australia and Canada for their new album Americana (out next week).

The Young version is in a style that is slightly more recognizable then a few of his other covers of traditional songs.

This is the fourth video of songs from the album using archival footage.

‘Americana’ will be released in Australia on June 1 and in the USA on June 4. Watch the first three Americana videos here.
