Comrade, you must have a good ear to rate one MIDI more revolting than another. Is this position of Minister of Patriotic Music still open?

As far as a national anthem, I cast my vote for something imaginative and contemporary: John Lennon's Imagine

Quote:

Imagine

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

Sadly, John Lennon does not have any reference to torturing and nerve stapeling Capitalist Pig-Dogs so it is unacceptable.

I can´t wait to hear our new anthem! At least it could be a march played during the weekly parades of heavy armed military through the streets of our great capital...

For lyrics:
As English is the official forum language, I think we should stick with English for the anthem. This way everybody here is able to join singing it. Quite embarrassing when high party officials aren´t able to sing their own anthem

Music:
Perhaps you could adapt parts of the Soviet anthem? It still sounds great! At least it should be a rousing march!

Jamski · May 17, 2003, 11:20

I'm just making an "Extreme" version of the Soviet Anthem, with more trumpets

This will be the midi file from HELL!!!!

Bwah hah hah hah

Zero · May 17, 2003, 15:53

if you can attach ur midi proposals that would be nice.

Also It would be nice if we can replace lyrics to suit our Hives needs.

I understand War of Arts reasons and would also vote for China's anthem but the Russian Red army choir version of Soviet anthem just steals my vote away.

Zero · May 17, 2003, 15:55

also, lets not kill off great runner up proposals. We can make the best one the official anthem of the hives. But we can always use parade and march anthems!

Nubclear · May 17, 2003, 16:06

Comrade, here is the list. I have highlighted GLORIOUS VERSIONS for you!!!!

Note: Proposed 1991 anthem is the 1991 anthem with VERY PATRIOTIC AND STIRRING vocals added to it!!! YOU CANNOT MISS IT!!!!

Yes!!! Great idea Comrade.

An official anthem of the state, the anthems of provinces, then military anthhems (for each branch, of course) and then marching anthems and victory anthems and international event anthems and AN ANTHEM FOR EVERY OCCASION!!!

I propose we install speakers in every base so all the peoples can hear the glory of the anthem we choose!

Jamski · May 17, 2003, 16:11

I was going to post a "work in progress" but I don't seem to be able to attach files in this forum...

Frankychan · May 17, 2003, 16:53

Argh! I like the idea of having a State anthem, then other's for each city and occassion.

Yes Yes YES!!!!!!

Nubclear · May 17, 2003, 22:54

Here is what I propose the anthems be anthems for:

ANTHEM OF THE DEMOCRATIC PEOPLES REPUBLIC (

) OF THE HUMAN HIVE: War of Arts Soviet Anthem

ANTHEM OF WAR: Anthem of the Peoples Republic of China.
MARCH ANTHEM: PRC.

NATIONAL TRAGEDY: TRUE KOREAS Anthem

Frankychan · May 17, 2003, 23:23

Per Comrade Tassadar and Comrade Frankychan's request, we nominate the Japanese National Anthem for National Tragedy.

Jamski · May 18, 2003, 05:39

Is it so bad?

-Jam

Frankychan · May 18, 2003, 06:34

No, it's just very solemn and emotional. The pace is slow and the meaning (at least for me) is very emotional.

Zero · May 18, 2003, 12:56

*sniff I dont know Russian, but every time I hea rit, I wanna sing my lungs out...

Oh what a glorious anthem the Hives have. Now if someone could write up a lyric specifically for the HIves for that anthem it would be awesome!

Any good lyricists here?

Nubclear · May 18, 2003, 16:40

That is how the PRC overthrew their imperialistic overlords.

Okay, bad joke.

Vev · May 18, 2003, 20:37

Can you zip it so that the firewall at my workplace does not reject the file. It does a file extension filter.
