Gollum Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) Never really liked our anthem. My number 1 is the Soviet National Anthem, Russian one has the same tune but different lyrics. At the risk of sounding like a deshdrohi, I would very much like a change in ours and one that is more in tune with modern independent India. It must be one that inspires, not a funeral theme.

Gollum Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Our neighbors Nepal and Pakistan (not by Shafqat Amanat Ali) have pretty catchy anthems, short and sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) This is funny, Kuwait messes up the Kazakh national anthem by playing the Borat version , to her composure KUWAIT: Kazakhstan's shooting team demanded an apology after a spoof national anthem from the comedy film Borat was played instead of the real one at a medal ceremony in Kuwait, the BBC reported on Friday. The team's coach told Kazakh media the organizers of the Kuwait tournament had downloaded the parody from the internet by mistake and had also got the Serbian national anthem wrong. Footage of Thursday's original ceremony shows gold medalist Maria Dmitrienko listening solemnly to the anthem before smiling. The ceremony was later rerun. The spoof anthem, from the movie featuring British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan", praises Kazakhstan for its superior potassium exports and for having the cleanest prostitutes in the region.

Clarke Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 French is fun to hear, especially the long one posted here. German was really good earlier, Uber alles vaterland. They modified it due to associations with third Reich I think, still pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollum Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 Have been listening to quite a few national anthems in recent times, ours must be among the worst. But still better than 'God Save the Queen' . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
