Performed by choir and symphony orchestra of South African Radio SABC. The first verse of Die Stem is sung followed by the first verse of the Call of South Africa. The words have been added to allow people to learn the anthems.Die Stem was learned by all of us growing up in South Africa before 1994. It will always be memorable to us and it will take its place in history. It was continually sung during school assemblies giving South Africans a strong national identity. Us English kids in South Africa at the time had our own preferences, Afrikaans version or the English one. I liked both but the English one for me was easier to sing to.
