Славься, Отечество наше свободное

You remember when you watched Rocky IV for the first time? Well, aside from wanting to coke up and rock out to Robert Tepper, you might have felt the urging need to become a dictator and take over the free world while gloriously pumping your fist as you listen to the Soviet national anthem. How intense is this jam?

Hear this: when the wall fell and Russia became what it is today, they changed the anthem to some gay ass tune about democracy. But the old anthem is so freaking good they brought it back but with more PC lyrics.

Here are the original lyrics. Even though I'm far from being a commie, this stuff is pretty triumphant.

And here's a link to the song.

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 labour 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!

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!
