Thread: Messing with the anthem

    Default Messing with the anthem

    So people one of the most controversial things happening here is a debate concerning the national anthem...During New Years Eve time fire works will spurt and a disco version of the anthem will be played...

    what are your views? should an anthem be changed/remixed/heard to fit in with this "younger generation"?

    I heard it and it sounds horrible its like messing with the flag....i seriously dont think it should be played!

    As long as it sounds good, change it, it's likely to be temporary anyway. It's probably the only time youth would hear it anyway, I know it's when I only hear mine. Heck, I don't even know mine. But that's not the point. The point is to party. And you can't party to unchanged national anthems, believe me.

    See, this is the result of politicians trying to be hep and down with the diggy dogs of the new school. Old people + trying to be cool = running to the bathroom to vomit. *has a vivid flashback of Dr. Evil doing the macerena.* Tucka-Tucka-tucka-tucka huuuug!

    I don't see how they can be trying to be hip and cool, because Disco died off years ago.

    my point exactly.

    although, old people that were young way back in the ancient 1970's are of the age wherein they gain political strength. and many of these guys and gals weren't the cutting edge of cool back then, exactly. therefore, methinks it makes perfect sense for them to make complete fools of themselves while trying to relate to an age group they care absolutely nothing about and hardly even notice or consider.

    I think meh. The only interesting thing ever to happen with the anthem was when Hendrix played it. I really don't care.
