The soviets had an awesome anthem. Better than the U.S. anthem, IMO.

that is an awesome anthem.... I don't even have to read it to know its awesome.  Not that I can't read it ... but why bother.  Soviet = Awesome

Like totally hardcore mad, its better then the gay australian anthem.

I hate my fucking anthem, I think it should be a song by The Living End or some other australian rock band.

what are the words to the aussie anthem?

if they don't talk about how cool Paul Hogan is and the fact that Cate Blanchett is like super beautiful, then they're lies

[hm_murdock]

wait... maybe Miranda Otto is more beautiful...

damn that Lord of the Rings

I was going to translate it myself, but thne I realized the translation was available online!

 

quote:Unbreakable Union of freeborn Republics,
Great Russia has welded forever to stand.
Created in struggle by will of the people,
United and mighty, our Soviet land!

       >> Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
       >> Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
       >> O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
       >> To Communism's triumph lead us on!

Through tempests the sunrays of freedom have cheered us,
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead.
To a righteous cause he raised up the peoples,
Inspired them to labor and valorous deed.
[Or, the old way:
Be true to the people, thus Stalin has reared us,
Inspire us to labor and valorous deed!]

       >> Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
       >> Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
       >> O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
       >> To Communism's triumph lead us on!

In the vict'ry of Communism's deathless ideal,
We see the future of our dear land.
And to her fluttering scarlet banner,
Selflessly true we always shall stand!

It's really an Anarchist anthem with different lyrics.

What would I have against this interesting thread? NOTHING. The only threads I've had problems with are those where all of us were going at each others throats.

Enough is enough. As of today I will shut up and not recommend any binning of anything in this forum.
