National Anthem of the Soviet Union: State Anthem of the USSR [1st verse]

(Turn on Youtube subtitles for English subtitles)

The "State Anthem of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics" was the national anthem of the Soviet Union and the regional anthem of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic from 1944 to 1991, replacing "The Internationale". Its original lyrics were written by Sergey Mikhalkov in collaboration with Gabriyel’ Arkadyevich Ureklyan, and its music was composed by Alexander Alexandrov. For a two-decade interval following de-Stalinization, the anthem was performed without lyrics. The second set of lyrics (the ones used in this video), also written by Mikhalkov and in which Stalin's name was omitted, was adopted in 1977.

A decade after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the music was adopted with new lyrics, again written by Mikhalkov, as the Russian national anthem.

FRANÇAIS : L’Hymne national de l'Union des républiques socialistes soviétiques ou Hymne de l'Union soviétique a été adopté le 15 mars 1944. La musique est composée par Aleksandr Alexandrov et les paroles écrites par Sergueï Mikhalkov avec Gabriel El-Registan. Il remplaça L'Internationale, qui était devenue l'hymne national du pays en 1922, et resta en usage jusqu'en 1990.

En 2000, sa musique est reprise pour le nouvel hymne de la fédération de Russie, mais avec de nouvelles paroles.

РУССКИЙ: Государственный гимн СССР — официальный государственный гимн Советского Союза, принятый в 1943 году вместо «Интернационала».

Слова для гимна написали С. В. Михалков и Эль-Регистан, музыку — А. В. Александров. В 2000 году мелодия Александра Александрова с новым текстом авторства Сергея Михалкова стала гимном России.

In similar fashion to the Soviets' attempt to abolish money after the October Revolution, Youtube has unfortunately demonetized my channel.

I have listened to this anthem more than my own country's national anthem

The part where it shows the rocket launching made me realize I had forgotten that the Soviet Union sent the first human to outer space and back to earth.
There's a lot of things to say about the USSR, but no one can deny the first step they give to humankind by doing so.

I have a feeling that if the USSR still existed, this is exactly the kind of thing you'll see on their state TV signoff for the day. Amazingly well done video.

I played this near my window, now it's an "IRON CURTAIN" 🚩❤️💪

Your channel is very wonderful. It has a lot of anthems and patriotic songs. Keep up the good work.

Holy shit, I feel more devoted and patriotic to this than my own country's anthem.

My Best Friend loved this Anthem so much in my class. It was his Favourite National Anthem in Existence. Some days out of the blue he would Put This Song on Full Volume out of nowhere and the Class would of Laughed. He also liked other Songs like Red Sun in the Sky but not as much as this. Sadly Today, We founded out that He Died 1-2 Days Ago and We don't know when and We don’t how but he was The Greatest Comrade in the Class… RIP, Neema. I hope you won’t be forgotten

This song has such a good tune and the Russian language sounds really good with it. I don't even care much about the meaning or the history of the song.

[philixer]

That’s the most beautiful version I’ve ever heard!

Thank you Soviet Union for helping India and coming to our aid during Bangladesh Liberation War.

Thanks Russia for helping India, when US and west turned their back on us.
