The singer just looking high and the melody is virtually non-existent. This is a horrible version of a great anthem. Don't let your patriotism cloud your judgement.

Don't think that's the French National Anthem... but nice collabo still.


La Marseillaise

yeah that's definitely one of the more unique... and interesting anthems.  All that talk of "March on, march on so that the impure blood should water the furrows of our fields"... is pretty macabre stuff.  Refers to the French Revolution and perfectly captures the contempt that the newly-empowered sans culottes had towards the Monarchy and its hangers-on.

they are pretty good at anthems , cause the popular socialist international which was the anthem of
the United Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) it was written by french people .
