Comletly OT: What is your favorite natioal anthem ?

[Loser]

Yes, Dixie is a good one. I got a craving for the anthem of the U.S.S.R. a while back and downloaded it. It's pretty cool too, especially when you have company over. When that tune comes up in the middle of some 'party mix' it's great to watch people expressions as they try to figure out what-the-bleep just happened.

For the 'better anthem for the U.S.' deal I'm pretty partial to America the Beautiful. It's also the only American anthem candidate that was actually written, tune and score, in the U.S. by a U.S. citizen.
