1890 Herald of Gospel Liberty 24 July 470/2 Our Alma Mater is worthy the highest encomium which rhetoric can declaim or poetry sing in its noblest of anthemic praises!

1969 Boston Sunday Globe 26 Oct. a-56/3 ‘Don't Let Me Down’ is almost anthemic in the manner of ‘Hey Jude!’.

1985 Sunday Times 14 July 2/7 A song called We Are The Champions, an exercise in bumptious self-congratulation which hinges on the anthemic chant No Time For Losers.

2002 Heat 2 Feb. 68/2 And it all comes to a rather grandiose climax with The Test, a big, anthemic closer featuring guest vocals from Richard Ashcroft.

2008 New Yorker 4 Aug. 76/3 Rock that respects the sea change of punk but still wants to be as chest-thumping and anthemic as the music of the seventies stadium gods.
