You Start A Country, What's Your National Anthem?

I was thinking if I started my own country, I'd need a national anthem. Could write one I guess, but I started a country so I could be lazy. So I did a search for classic tunes.

The one that got my attention was:
"The Rose" by Bette Midler

I thought it fit since my country name would probably be something like
"US of Rose"
and I love the song.

  I guess your country would be based on a Island. Cool

Hmmmm

We are the World

People are People by Depeche Mode
One Tin Soldier

Those three songs - mostly want WE ARE THE WORLD - to be the main one - to give hope and love out...

  I remember singing "One Tin Soldier" back in grade school. I love that song.

So this would be your National Anthem? National Holiday Halloween?

Liking a type music is all well and good I love all types.

And the end begins
Slaughter
Time of humans end
Terminated
Enter bowels of hell
Curl up and die
Cowarding-controlled

You are nothing
You will fear thee
Plague of zombies
Curse of the living

Lost a world of pleasure
Now here comes the torture
Murderers and killers
Once your friends
And neighbors

Rising from the grave
Writhing in pain
I want to eat your brain
We're rising from the grave

Burnig fires
Homes and cities
Torn to shit from
War and poverty
Overcrowding led to killing
Decaying bodies left unburied
Crimson famine kept on spreading
Breeding ignorance
Declining populace
The day the dead walked
Apocalypse
The day the dead walked
The armageddon
The day the dead walked
Apocalypse
The day the dead walked

Rising from the grave
Writhing in pain
I want to eat your brain
We're rising from the grave

I would have went with "Iron Man" myself.
