The Internationale Modern Rock Pop Version Chinese / French

The amazing (and gripping) aspect of this version is that here we see a huge audience of mostly young people, certainly no longer poor, clearly enjoying the fruits of socialism, singing and cheering the Internationale. While western kids drown in angst, nihilism and decadence, or get swept away by the antics of rock and roll egomaniacs, these people, who understand the meaning of this song, face the future in fraternal solidarity with vibrant optimism. How refreshing to see young faces who truly understand history!  —P. Greanville
