Gah. Brain overload

I've been crazy creative these last days, working on two fics, proofread and done a bunch of other stuff... All the while working a lot. So I'm a bit tired tonight ^^;

They're talking about voices and music at the main Hetalia comm, so I thought I'd collect some of my own thoughts here. Bit too tired to do anything serious right now anyway


This is the song Prussia plays every time Russia comes by

Except he sings the alternate and very banned lyrics from the Soviet time under his breath.

Russia himself is still pretty fond of The Internationale.

It's a perfectly good song, why waste it? Besides, it reminds him of when his house was full of his friends and family
(this song sends Latvia into convulsions)

Prussia sounds pretty much like Farin Urlaub.


This song, also... So damn happy but then you read the lyrics... Oh, Farin.

I saw you pass me by
and before I could say anything,
before my eyes
you were run over by a truck
that probably hurt a lot

I send you a flower,
you're laid up in the hospital

I lie at the beach
with an ice-cold drink in my hand
I wear a pair of sunglasses,
because I need them
the sun is shining on my stomach
guess that works too
...


And of course this video, we all know it's practically entered my headcanon by now!


I imagine that most of the nations actually wouldn't want a theme-song, not beyond their own national anthems. The suggestion someone made about Edith Piaf for France is one of the few which I don't only feel fits, but which he'd also use. Alfred goes for his national anthem - my god, they played the national anthem before the whale show at Sea World. Complete with a little speech by some owner dude to stand up and think of the brave soldiers o_O Creeeepy

Germany would never take anything with lyrics about Germany. Nope, no way. If forced to, he'd probably use some classical piece, Mozart or Beethoven or something else pretty inoffensive. When Prussia realizes this, he'll try and switch it for Ritt der Walküre cuz if you're gonna have classical, it'd better be EPIC

(also, it pisses Germany off something fierce)

Judging from his image song, I'd say Prussia is pretty fond of Rammstein. But now that he has an image song, I fully expect him to play Ore-sama no uta... at every possible excuse.

England would secretly like to use "Anarchy in the UK" but he thinks everyone else would laugh... he's probably right.

Austria's is of course An der schöne blaue Donau. That's canon, you can't convince me otherwise.

Partyl because it's one of the few Hungarian songs I can remember from my childhood, partly because I've always seen her as very much one of her people, I prefer this song for Hungary:


My crappy translation of the lyrics:
Hey, the wind blows from the Danube
always reaches the poor man
the wind blows from the Danube
If the Danube wasn't there, I wouldn't be so cold
the wind blows from the Danube

Hey, Jancsi, Janscika why didn't you grow taller
the wind blows from the Danube
If you'd grown taller, you could've become a soldier
the wind blows from the Danube


[Jancsi is of course a name. John?]
