Romania's is an underrated banger, in my opinion.

Great battle hymn. It'd fit right in on the Iron Nest soundtrack

I think we in the US should change our anthem to The Most Unwanted Song. It really captures our vibe right now as a nation.

[–] Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 2 points 1 week ago

Well, that was an experience. I now agree with your opinion - it captures the US better than anything else i've ever listened to.

[Refrain: Children's Choir]
Yom Kippur! Yom Kippur!
Self reflection and atonement
Yom Kippur, that's what for
Do all your shopping
At Wal-Mart!

Ironically, it's much more interesting than The Most Wanted Song. Maybe that's part of how we got into this mess.

How it sounds.

The lyrics, Uruguay's one is pretty good.

Orientales , la patria o la tumba. Libertad lo con gloria morir.

Easterners, the homeland or the grave. Freedom or die with glory.

The Welsh anthem is wonderful - the Welsh are famed as singers anyway, and it's a joy hearing them belt it out.

I don't have a specific favorite national anthem, but I will take this opportunity to recommend the Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra's renditions of every national anthem (plus a few regional and historical ones), which was one of the main things that started my interest in national anthems.

A few countries have changed their national anthems since it's release, but it's mostly up to date.

The URSS, then Russia (the soviet lyrics are better tbh) then Turkey.

I haven't really heard many of them, but I haven't heard one I like yet. Like, that I would listen to just because it's a banger of a song.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

imma just ditto yours because it feels exactly like I feel about it.

[–] dunc@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

Italy or Russia

Not anthem, but Finland also has a national hymn. Which translates well to English.

You might recognize it from die hard 2.
