Russian National Anthem honestly sounds better than most

a reply to: LotToTell2
Was any of the information incorrect? Those ARE the words to the American and Russian anthems, right? The latest final adoption of the Russian Anthem words was in 2000, right? Those ARE the stats of how many Russians actually like their anthem, right?

What exactly about the Russian anthem shows it to be a mighty song with deep history ??

What exactly about the American anthem shows it to be broken promises in modern times ??

The American one speaks of brave people winning battles and it thanks God. The Russian one calls itself a glorious, free Fatherland, with wise people being loyal to it, all protected by God. So how exactly is one supposedly such a horrid lie while the other supposedly so wonderful and true?

Read the information at the site

In a 2009 poll conducted by the Russian Public Opinion Research Center and publicized just two days before Russia's flag day (22 August), 56% of respondents stated that they felt proud when hearing the national anthem. However, only 39% could recall the words of the first line of the anthem. This was an increase from 33% in 2007. According to the survey, between 34 and 36% could not identify the anthem's first line. Overall, only 25% of respondents said they liked the anthem.[75] In the previous year, the Russian Public Opinion Research Center found out that 56% of Russians felt pride and admiration at the anthem, even though only 40% (up from 19% in 2004) knew the first words of the anthem. It was also noted in the survey that the younger generation was the most familiar with the words.[75]

I`m going to listen to them all now later on, never done that...I wonder which ones I will like the most.

I already found one which is better as all what I have heard up until now...

From your own wiki link on page 1 of this thread

"A 2009 poll showed that 56% of respondents felt proud when hearing the anthem, and that 81% liked it."

This just goes to show Wikipedia is PROPAGANDA that can't get it's story straight when it deals with countries US government doesn't like

Again - show where the lyrics are wrong. Good luck with that. Show how the information is wrong. Good luck with that. The information quoted the Russian Public Opinion Research Center poll on how many Russians liked their national anthem. The poll said 25% liked it.

Answer the questions.

What exactly about the Russian anthem shows it to be a mighty song with deep history ??

What exactly about the American anthem shows it to be broken promises in modern times ??

These were your claims. Address them.

What are you talking about ?

Dude

Your own wiki link shows the following

"A 2009 poll showed that 56% of respondents felt proud when hearing the anthem, and that 81% liked it."

If you don't like the fact that Wikipedia contradicts itself when it comes to things US government doesn't like

Then don't use them as source

Because other people can read too

What are YOU talking about? Stop cherry picking. Here's an exact quote and I gave a link to the source of the poll. Be sure to read the bold letters.

Now stop deflecting and answer the questions -

What exactly about the Russian anthem shows it to be a mighty song with deep history ??

What exactly about the American anthem shows it to be broken promises in modern times ??

These were your claims. Address them.

He's just a Russia fan that keeps posting Rah! Rah! threads and then gets butthurt when folks don't flock to his side. He can safely be ignored. Notice how he's trying change the argument, now that you've shown the ridiculous lyrics of his favorite song, compared to the National Anthem.
"Deep history" [ chuckle ]

Shame that you don't want to admit that the source you use Wikipedia contradicts itself

And the reason you don't want to admit is because Wikipedia is pro western and such a useful source for your pro US viewpoints

Simple

Just speak the truth like I do

Don't use tactics because they betray you in the long run

I don't know about the Russian one, but the American one ends in a lie, neither free, nor brave. I don't think I have to expand on that do I? In fairness, does any national anthem accurately describe the people living there now?

a reply to: superman2012
And the Russian one speaks of a 'free fatherland' that is protected by God. And it talks about fraternal groups of people (which means - without any infighting). None of that is true. The OP said one is a lie and the other is fantastic. I'm asking him to explain his statement.

Why are you ignoring my discovery reading your Wikipedia link that wiki contradicts itself and is blatant PROPAGANDA for US on how world should be

Since you are so good at ignoring things

I am ignoring you now

Talk to yourself

You seem to have a problem with different opinions people have

You do know that music taste is individual thing

Honour justice and integrity though aren't

US stats are clear in the last 20 years

It actually sounds really good. I can't understand what the hell it says, but maybe that is a good thing.

How about Rhomanies anthem, www.youtube.com... Gelem Gelem means Traveling in rhomanes, its sang in rhomanes language but some Romanians, from balkan country, not related to Rhomanies, says its originally their song tho but for me it does not matter, if its sang in our tongue its ours
