Patriotic Songs/music.

[baboon]

In my household whenever a patriotic song interupts the viewing, tuts and sighs abound, eyebrows raised and the channel is swiftly changed. The Thais I have questioned have told me this media is a waste of time especially for the youngsters who think it is a cheap way of massaging national sensetivities to maintain the status quo. [Or just think the song itself is crap.]

So what about your household? Are there tears of joy, whooping and hollering, or a quiet indifference? Could you imagine anyone would have time for it in your home country?

especially for the youngsters who think it is a cheap way of massaging national sensetivities to maintain the status quo.

Smart Kids round your way, most don't give a frig, did you when you was a kid ?

When you WERE a kid. Of course not, but my life has been dedicated to Heavy Metal music. Great to see Thai youngsters on the same page as well!
