Back in the 1950’s and 1960’s we had to learn the Marseilles, but that was in French class.

Yep. Had to learn that one as well. And I do know all the words to O Canada since I've been following hockey since I was 9.

Le Marseilles is a song that has some farther cultural context. I doubt anyone on the planet has even heard the Mexican National Anthem unless they are down there at a baseball or soccer game, or watching a Mexican TV station sign-off early in the morning.
