Albertville 1992 Opening Ceremony || La Marseillaise

After the lightning of the cauldron and the athletes/judges oath, Severine Dupelloux, a girl from the french region of Savoie (on which Albertville is located) performs a Capella version of La Marseillaise, french national anthem, to start the cultural program of the Opening Ceremony of the 1992 Winter Olympics.

What if Severine had sung La Marseillaise at last Friday's opening ceremonies? Wouldn't that have been something special?

Gotta love a little kid singing a song about plowing your field with the blood of your enemies.

soak our flag with enemy's blood...?

[@jeanpierreragequit1726]

yep... anthem from an old military march from republican military units coming from south of France & defending the young french republic vs austrians & prussian troops attacking the only one republic in a Europ uniquely componed by monarchies.... British troops attacking south of France in Toulon city, Austrian & Prussian troops attacking north & east France. it was just after 1789. Napoleon came just after that to calm down them all during among 20 years ;) Its my anthem and i love it....

Du Canada, jamais depuis je n'ai revu un hymne chanté aussi émouvant. La forme épurée en cette jeune fille montant dans le ciel... a capella, avec des poupées d'innocence tout autour de sa robe tradi... des paroles sanguinaires réclamant la justice. Paradoxe. C'est toute l'histoire de notre humanité ou se mêlent guerre et paix, pureté et vice. Bouleversant... du génie français à son paroxysme.
