in my country the question has been raised weather or not to change the anthem. personally i don't like our current anthem. has no "punch" behind it and too many "god bless latvia" for my taste.
while the new one also has the god themes in it, it is connected to our ancient gods (something like Thor and alike). and this one is just AWESOME! makes hairs on my back to stand up
i am interested in what you think about countries changing their anthems. is ok? or a big no no for you?
i will give you a link to the new one. if you want it could give you also a translation, but it would be rather hard since half of the words are in "ancient latvian" or "traditional latvian" which are close to impossible to translate without a help of a whole sentence.
so. tell me what you think about this song. there are anthems that i don't understand and i still like. so, would be nice if you would let me know since it may represent my country some day...that is if old farts and over religious people will know how to STFU
the song is called "The Sun, The Thunder, The Daugava(name of a river)"
