Cat's out the bag, genie's out the bottle, this is the anthem of the dream of a better world. And in addition to his many more serious crimes, fuck Putin for stealing the tune of the people's hymn to be the national anthem of his capitalist-imperialist zombie state.
Finally, someone else who knows russia (as well as america) is not on the side of the people despite using Soviet symbols to invoke nostalgia to promote petty nationalism.
There are no "bad renditions" of a national anthem. This one is good but listen to this more recent one. :) The very best version of Russian anthem (Bolshoi junior choir) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VJcnuZB4Xt4.html
just like my girlfriend that escaped mid-night i did everything for her i kidnapped her i brought her to a house in the forest and i gave her everything she wanted
Playing the National Anthem over something inspirational before shutting down broadcasting used to be common in other countries, too. I'm missing it. Nowadays, the time slot is occupied by extra long commercials, game shows and soft porn.
TreeMovies there’s nothing “healthy” about patriotism Edit: Jesus Christ, I’ve never angered so many people by a comment before. Ok now there’s people wishing that I’m dead lol. Edit 2: I now realise what I said was wrong and that I’m thinking of nationalism not patriotism.
@@thelordofforeheads2839 I disagree. I can love my country without hating others or thinking mine is superior to others. I grew up on an island in the North Sea. The roaring thunder of the waves still moves me, even thinking about it. Does that mean that the Ural Mountains or Subsaharan Africa suck? No, not at all, it's just where I grew up and I'm attached to it.
@@thelordofforeheads2839 You're mixing it with nationalism. Patriotism is loving your country and being an active citizen, but not throwing shit on other countries, and being ready to defend your country or do something else for it. Nationalism is shitting all over foreigners, immigrants, other cultures, nations and races and is an early stage of fascism.
I rather have patriotism. Nationalism is an abomination that destroys its host ideas to give birth to lies that fundamentally changes a country's ideals...

As the other comment mentioning this is a cesspool... Older TV sets were overheating (which shortened their lifespan) and even keen to broke, if left on for too long with static image - and a standard testcard is one.
'Furthermore, Russian copyright law declares that all Soviet state symbols including this anthem are in the public domain.' Communism: In the end, I haven't failed.
Imagine it being Christmas in the USSR, 1991, your just a little kid, and you decide to stay up watching tv all night and then seeing the USSR collapse, not knowing what it meant. Must’ve been tough
Так как мы не католики, а православные, Рождество празднуем по старой дате, а именно 7 января. Для всех это был невероятный день, который без должного контекста должен был стать самым обычным
In gernany this is tradition too. If you switch on the radio channel one in Munich or bavaria. At 00:00 you will hear the European , the german , and the Bavarian Anthem
Hard not to be inspired by a nation that within a single generation went from a feudal backwater to winning a war against some of the evilest people in history and exploring space. We would all be lucky to see such progress in our lives.
While ironically led by some of the evilest people in history. They did all those great things yet murdered millions and enslaved a continent for decades.
Yeah, thanks to a sociopathic thug who had no understanding of economics or finance. Stalin wanted to close a 100-year industrial gap with the West in 10 years, and he killed or exiled anyone who got in the way.
@@edrickang2338 Yes it is. I don't know why that other guy talks about Soviet symbols being used "again", because they use Soviet symbols during each Victory Day that happened since 1945, the point of this day is to celebrate the victory of the Soviet Union against the Third Reich during the Great Patriotic War (WW2) Thus why they drive a T-34-85 and make some troops wear 1940's equipment and weapons.
The "it is now safe to turn off your compu--uhm--TV" sign is meant to protect the CRT from burn out. There were no screen savers back in the day and even if there were, it made no sense to keep all that broadcasting equipment powered on just to prevent some idiot's left on TV from developing burn spots. Burn out doesn't mean "catching fire" - CRTs are coated with a special substance that emits light when hit by the CRT's ray gun - its how they draw an image. Now, if you leave your TV open, that coating eventually will start wearing off in the most bombarded areas. This is why on old monitors you'll see those burn spots taking the shape of text characters because that was the most displayed thing. Someone probably associated that buzzer sound with a bomb and made a joke about TVs exploding and others ran with it because it fits the age old myth that Soviet technology was so backwards it had to be comically broken.
@@pauljr.harrington1905 I live in the Philippines, it's quite common to see Cathode Ray Tubes in every household. We have 3 CRTs (All of them are still operating) and 2 Flat screens.
The end translates to “Don’t forget! Turn your TV off!” They did that because old TV sets used to overheat when left on overnight so it could cause a fire if you left it on
It's probably because we all know the reality of USSR. And pretty much everyone would agree with me that most people if not everyone came here to see what kind of "entertainment" people were getting back then from something that is still relevant to this day and by that I obviously mean the mass media. It's a lot different now than it used to be back then, in the same exact country. I can only guess but you probably feel sad because you can realize that a thing like this could literally brainwash millions of people and you probably feel bad for them. At least this is what I truly feel.
The reason this makes me sad is it shows a beautiful depiction of the USSR, the most idealized and perfect version of what the Party thought they were. In real life, the USSR was a far more depressing place because of the Party's authoritarian/statist interpretation of socialism. It's sad because it shows a reality that could have been.
In Soviet Russia, the TV switches you off - only when it was delivered by a ballistic missile, otherwise it made no sense :))) Outside the USSR, this warning did not appear :)))
a proud nation of beautiful people plundered by heartless opportunists. the definition of forged in fire of adversity, the world suffers from forgetting the many valuable lessons bought and paid for in blood by the soviet peoples. far from perfect but so much potential and so many achievements, never has there been a country so oft maligned that was worthy of so much respect
This anthem also reminds me of Gagarin's quote: "Looking at the earth from afar you realize it is too small for conflict and just big enough for cooperation."
@@shreksburgers and when that time comes, we'll start throwing rock at each other, just like the good ol times. But this time with colossal rock and a planet for the target
Imagine some patriotic Russian who waited for this sign off anthem everyday, and after soviet collapse they stopped broadcasting it. Must be very depressing.
@Ivan Ivan some Russians hated communism, others liked it and others were neutral. By using the logic of your statement I could say that all Americans hate the democratic party or the republican party, but it's not true, because you know people can have different opinions even if they speak the same language and live in the same country
I’ve read that most Russians that are old enough to remember have nostalgic feelings about the Soviet Union but it’s similar to an old relationship. You remember the good parts but have amnesia about why that person drove you crazy and why you left.
Some hated it, some loved it, but 80% of RSFSR's population was against desolvation of USSR. It wasn't a revolution, it was a military coup... Thousands of people were standing on Red Square for weeks , until democratic government removed them by tanks. People wanted reds to come back, but will to survive and feeling of hunger were stronger. There was no time for rioting.
/Love/ /Peace I’m assuming that RSFSR means the Russia part of the Soviet Union? What percent of the non-Russia part of the Soviet Union wanted to stay in?
American TV: hey, if you're not asleep yet we have this cool radio station you can listen to. Soviet TV: THERE IS NOTHING LEFT, TURN OFF YOUR FUCKING TV

Whether you are a capitalist or communist, conservative or liberal, these are goals we all should strive for.
Funny and a little creepy how they have a caption telling you to turn the TV off. The buzzer makes it sound like it will blow up any second if you leave it on.
You well-meaing but silly person: they're HERE. they've been here. the fall in '91 was the beginning of the new era. Can't you feel it? Take a walk around your closest university town and tell me you can't feel the change.
Remind me of these lines: "You can make it my friend, you always survive." "The honor should be yours." Then this plays in background. Best game I've ever played.
I like the scenes where they shows industry, healthcare, big buildings and space exploration. It looks like humanity finally forgives one another and starts working together for the sake of world development

@JadonGamer At least your politicians know what's the difference between marriage and the family. Trust me. Our government want to apply the new meaning of family in constitution. Family-The alliance between man and woman. So basically if we have a single mother raising the kid it's wouldn't count as the family. Great work brain! I am not gonna comment about single sex relationship because its useless.
It's funny when it sticks in my ear and so l end up going shopping or tidying the kitchen to rousing music playing in my head. It gives me courage to go out in the rain with the dogs.
4:16 When I was a child, I would always turn off the TV as soon as I heard the anthem... For some reason, the message “Не забудьте выключить телевизор” (→ don’t forget to turn off the TV), coupled with that sound, scared me a lot, and I never wanted to hear it!
@@epic_gamingyt Yeah, my family originally came from China... My parents moved to the USSR in 1982, and I was born there in 1983... We were one of the only two Chinese families in the entire city. After the fall of the Soviet Union, we migrated to Italy, which is where I live right now!
_"it features the famous "turn off your TV" notice at the very end. Legend has it that this was included because Soviet TVs had a nasty habit of exploding and starting house fires when they were left on overnight"_ *Galaxy Note 7:* My Ancestors!

We used to have the same thing in America. Television stations began broadcasting at 6am with our national anthem being played over beautiful scenes from across our nation. The same happened at midnight when the stations shut down... and then we had six blessed hours of no television at all. Aaaahhhh! Now we have two hundred channels spewing vitriol 24/7. The torture never stops!
Same in almost every country in the world. The UK started it with the world's first TV channel (BBC 1) signing off with the national anthem. Then everyone else in the world just did the same just because. I do miss sign-offs though, instead of awful content at 3am that wouldn't air any other time of day.
The thing about TVs exploding wasn’t because of poorly made TVs, it’s because of poorly regulated power lines. At night, because of less electronics drawing power, the power line voltage would increase and overload appliances such as TVs and overheat them or cause them to break entirely. This could at times cause the CRT glass to warp and even explode, or at the least get terrible burn-in.
Not very likely, anyone waking up to pee at night would have a surprise firework instead of a toilet light then. The most technical explanation I've heard is vacuum tube electronics being too sensitive to many hours of non-stop operation, not exactly an explosion though, but apparently a real fire hazard and a hassle of getting replacement parts. (Kudos to Soviet stuff being user-serviceable btw) Another possible explanation is that the warning was just a friendly reminder aimed at saving electricity and TV explosions being just a common myth.
That's actually what would happen if you left the TV on for too long. The beeping was to wake up people who had accidentally left their TV on before going to sleep.

@@Ojlobnel it will not.... at least not as it was before. Soviet union can be recreated. it will be ussr just by the name.... communism is dead for ever, and capitalism is too worth it to relaunch communism
Flamer Gorbachev was a decent leader for the ussr. If it weren’t for him, the soviets would last about 10 years longer, when maybe some other leader would destruct the Soviet Union. Unless your a low effort troll or just don’t see through Marx’s rhetoric
Flamer I guess I wasn’t clear on that. He did this on purpose, i suppose maybe the word Destroy was a bit overtone. The Soviet Union held no good in this world. However, what I getting from your response is free speech leads to harm? Technically, Gorbachev didn’t even dissolve the Soviet Union. That was Boris Yeltsins doing (good man). Gorbachev destroyed the sad little imagery of Lenin and Marx, and would’ve maybe brought the Soviet Union to a better life. Otherwise, Russia would still be under an authoritarian famine. Some could say that because of Putin, that still remains, but that’s besides the point. The Soviets weren’t a good nation, and I don’t see the problem with it dissolving.
Only poseure and hipsters like Stranger Things. But the 80s suck in general. The 70s and the disco aesthetics of communist satelites are where it's at.
I was born in the USSR, now I live in Russia. This hymn was played on the radio every day at 12 pm 6 am. No matter how you feel about the country, no matter the time, you can't deny the greatness of this song!

@Raphaël Gaudet They could've had a future if the US stopped fucking over them and they themselves stopped being such authoritarian dickheads. Democratic socialism is the only way to go without fucking over people and the economy when capitalism is still not abolished (a.k.a nowadays)
For USSR I always think of Sergey Fyodorovich Akhromeyev. Born in a poor peasant family, 4 month after USSR came to existence. Got education because of the equality from communism Fought against Nazi, watch the country grow into super power, plot invasion of Afghanistan, and watch the country collapse. He killed himself the very day the communist party dissolved, and also exactly 4 months before USSR ends. The experiment covers exactly one generation, and it failed. But for this very generation they are the product of USSR, and will always be remembered in the human history.
It's quite possible he was killed. Such people like Akhromeev don't kill themselves, as they've battled through hell on Earth. There was a lot of strange deaths of possible leaders of socialist opposition against 'democratic' reforms of Gorbachev and Yakovlev, starting in 1987.
@Alfred Peters how? Apparently a lot of the citizens of USSR were very worried that their government was collapsing? A lot of citizens enjoyed the safety nets of socialism and apparently crime and homelessness went up after they installed the current capitalist republic.
@Alfred Peters I agree with you, although I feel like the USSR in particular has lots of mis information around it. It’s a fascinating country and time to me as I was born just 8 months after its collapse.
@Alfred Peters Because after the fall of the Soviet Union the world is now a paradise right? Let's not even get started on the countless proxy wars that happened after the Soviet Collapse. Typical boomer american

@@cytrynowy_melon6604 > how many resources were wasted and improperly located due to central planned economy. I think you forget one importang thing: USSR relied only on it's own resources, no matter how far are they from the general economic centers and how hard are they to extract. The other option was buying stuff for people's money from abroad for insane prices - which was unacceptable for many reasons.
Tomasz Kolowca also wrong, you have to fuck up a design pretty bad for a tv to spontaneously combust, the reason the message was portrayed was due to the bright colors sort of imprinting an outline on the screen, making the tv useless. Almost all tvs at the time had this issue

Yes, actually because the ideal behind this is uniting all people and building bridges between nations all under the idea of selfless love and communism. But just in theory. In reallity we know how it went. It's an utopian idea afterall.
