Anthem

Once I happend to watch on TV, Diana Ross was singing the US national anthem on an opening ceremony of a professional sport game. She sang with delight and hope. Her singing was very splendid. Sometimes I listen to the national anthems of Israel and Russia. I do not like the old national anthem 'International' of Soviet Union. I like the old anthem of Russia.
