Yes, the Soviet national anthem is a good song.

What version: the first or the second?

You mean with or without the lyrics? I don't care about the lyrics.

My suggestion wasn't really serious, but yes, the Soviet anthemn is quite catchy. Putin reintroduced the melody for the current Russian anthemn, only the lyrics have changed, so we could use that melody without singing about Lenin's party and the triumph of communism.

However, Tchaikovsky would be good choice, too.

I just posted on my log, but I'll paste here a little part of it:

"Anyway, the (VERY) good news is that I got to practice my spoken Russian! I skyped with a Russian friend that I met on Livemocha for about 30 minutes straight in Russian and understood pretty much all of it, above 85%! And she understood me very well too, thus we had an actual conversation in Russian! \o/ She also said my accent is great and that I should practice spoken Russian more often, in order to make less grammar mistakes (which are normal for a foreigner in Russian I guess). My wife doesn't like to talk to me in Russian, so I'll probably do it with friends like Anton (that attended our last Skype meeting) and her. Anyway, that was a huge confidence booster! I can't wait to go and talk again =) "

I'm happy about it =)

@Bbcatcher 08 and @Fabricio: There is nothing better than a confidence booster!

I would also like to wish all the members of team MIR and all others who follow this thread a very Merry
Christmas. I know a lot of us celebrate Christmas at different times, but in Norway it starts in 2 minutes and I
send you all my love.

Cristina

I am also open for more suggestions as to team song and picture. For team picture - no nominees. So get those creative juices flowing, and start nominating songs, mottos and beautiful pictures. Think Siberian Forests, The Vasiliev Cathedral, Russian folklore, Laike Bakal - any suggestions that come to mind.


Why not a picture of MIR?
