stewdog1 50 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I haven't watched any this year, but it could be Vangelis. I don't know if they got a new composer for a theme this year or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beowulf 4 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 The only discernable theme that I have heard for the WC so far is the piece of music which is played after each game is finished.To me it sounds suspiciously like the Russian National Anthem - it even has a chorus that sounds similiar in parts. I don't know if this is what you're talking about though...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi 0 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 The song after the match is over sounds EXACTLY like the nation russian anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I don't think you're talking about this, but I've noticed they play The Pet Shop Boys hit 'Go West' around the stadium after a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony69 0 Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 omfg. it actually is the russian anthem. blasphemous. they should take non-country-affiliated music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,191 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I don't think you're talking about this, but I've noticed they play The Pet Shop Boys hit 'Go West' around the stadium after a match.Well, that would be fitting, since that song is a cover version of the Russian anthem.

RomanticStrings 10 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Are we talking the Soviet Anthem, or the one that didn't last much more than a decade?~Conor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony69 0 Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 THE soviet anthem. the one that was used during the soviets, got taken out, and was reinstated by putin in 2003? (i think it was 03) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
