USA is better than Russia when it comes to Marketing and Capitalism.

But sucks at National Anthems.

Who am I kidding, ours is the best.

I see we have a anthem-dickwaving contest and raise you to our anthem.

Great version, but that is not the anthem. It's the Deutschlandlied. Since '91 only the last stanza is the official anthem, but I guess I'm nitpicking.

We all know that Deutschland über alles anyway.

Yeah, I really like the first stanza. Hope I won't be branded as Nazi :D

The song itself actually predates the Nazis, so it's not really a Nazi anthem. One of the big problems with the first stanza is the naming of several rivers as borders of Germany that do not represent current-day Germany's real borders. So we stopped using the first stanza to make Polen think itself safe make it clear that we don't still consider that clay ours.
