David Kirschenbaum of Boog City sends along news of this Queen cover in time for the World Cup: “Viva Ukrayino!” is a track by Ukranian artist TNMK that is a take-off of “We Will Rock You.” Listen or download here. Read a story about this and other countries’ song here. And here’s a rough translation made by a Queen fan over at Brian May’s site:
A green field, blue’n'yellow flags,
Today’s fashion-our colours
Time has passed, time of unsuccess
Let’s celebrate together every goal.
Viva Ukraine! (4 times)
Yes, we were beaten, we were broken
But, again and again we have stood up
Someone up there-give us a chance
There is no better team than us.
Viva Ukraine! (4 times)
It’s time for us to became a number one
The most excellent team from all
Be happy for us Ukraine, opponents-cry
Let’s celebrate together every goal.
Viva Ukraine! (4 times)
