I have worried me the CD because I wanted to get to know the national anthem of the GDR.
In retrospect, I have to say I like it in general better than the current, both the text and the composition ago. Only the text passage: "... we suggest the people enemy." has a negative impression.
No wonder also that it was not sung after 1970, a united Germany, the target is (... the sun, beautiful as never before,
over Germany appears ";-))
I DDR skills through the teaching of history and feel this CD only questionable if someone has not been listening when teaching, because even with my few know, I've seen the propaganda content. This was inevitable in many songs, there was much applied too thick (eg, "The 13" and "Pack your swimming costume".)
Not so easy to see it was, it was, however, for example, in "Now you're in the LPG". - Here the booklet, with its background information is very supportive.
Totaly gives this CD a good idea of which "man", the SED leadership had of their citizens.
A strong buy recommendation!
