btoth76 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 This is my favorite song with patriotic lyrics - sung by the late Péter Máté. It's called "My home". The video starts with the panorama of river Danube from south, with the Chain Bridge in front of the view (designed by the british William Tierney Clark). Then shows the east side of the Danube (Pest) up until bridge Erzsébet (Elisabeth). Enjoy! Post Your own, please. Cheers... Bence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennis Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 This song isn't really about my country, it only mentions it. And it only mentions it because they had to change the title when someone felt the original, "Knowing She Would", was a bit too suggestive... Or so I've heard. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY5i4-rWh44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rct Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Honest, sensitive songs, Rct! Thank You for posting! Cheers... Bence They are, and they are more than anything, sad. I wish I could be all about our country here, but I just can't muster it anymore. Hopefully we will do better for our kids and theirs. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valeriy Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hello, Bence and fellows . As a matter of fact, I was irritated always by patriotic songs. Because there almost are not good songs among patriotic (IMO) , sooner there is too much useless songs. At once when I was playing in a music band of the police I sung Michelle of the Beatles for policemen in their hall of police headquarters of my city on their holiday on the day of police… it was OK, the policemen are people too :) And Bence, I have listened to your song now, it seems, arrangement and everything is made well. Though, perhaps, American music, as regards patriotic, is the most advanced, for example Bruce Springsteen: Or here, the best patriotic for the world - Rock` N `Roll-Sooooul !

btoth76 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hello Valeriy! To create a patriotic opus that's not pathetic or pompous, shows the real greatness of an artist! That's why I find this subject very interesting! ;) Cheers... Bence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzoboy Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Our national anthem,Oh Canada used to be something that I was proud to sing,that is until the Political Correctness zealots got hold of it and made a balls of it by changing the lyrics to an extent that totally killed the original spirit of the song.
