OK, here's the deal: I've got a piece of music here, which shall remain unnamed.
My question to you is: do you know this piece music? Do you know what it stands for?
Then answer the poll with a yes or a no corresponding with your age group.
But: do NOT tell anything about the music or where it is from in the thread below, don't influence those who have not voted yet.
And if you have not voted yet: do NOT read the posts below this one until you have voted. Its an anonymous poll so there are no prizes to win.
The music file is an mp3 in a .zip file, so you can download a copy to your computer without hassle.
Heard the music? Time to vote!

If I do that, most people can only listen to it as streaming audio - they won't have a copy unless they know where to retrieve it.

I don't think so, my browser asks if I want to open or download the file. Besides that, if you right click the download link you can select 'save link location as...'

Hmmmm. I'm the only old fart who doesn't know it so far (or at least admits not knowing it! ).
Definately sounds like a national anthem, possibly of the former Soviet Union, but I'm not good with languages so I don't know for sure what language they are singing in.

OK, any new voter who reads a thread this long, before voting in an anonymous poll, is lame so I might as well show my cards. This music is the old CCCP Soviet anthem, as composed by Sergei Prokofiev and sung by the Red Army Choir.
You don't hear this anymore because there's no more soviet union. I suspected that the geezers like myself would know it more often than not, and that it would be rarer to know it among our younger members. And indeed, history fades fast.
I remembered a lil (too lil actually) flash game I played against a few people on chat, that consisted of the USA and the USSR nuking eachother. I always chose the russki's side and near always won the oversimplified game, causing my speakers to erupt with this  That game could really use some elaboration, its a concept which could be very cool as a multiplayer game. But yes, thats where I got the idea, and I wondered how well-remembered it was this day and age.

Yeah, it was my guess too just based on the nature of the question (specifically the age part). Never heard it before, as far as I know.

so how DID he find just what it was? i have no lead really...
i did how ever vote that i do know what the tune is (at least i thought i did) my guess was "the international" but seems i'm wrong 
p.s W_S i'm not sure what's the problame with your computer but i've never heared ANYONE alse complain about not being able to actualy download the files (it must have something to do with one of your media programs prefrences or something of that sort maybe?) but it's just a hassle for the rest of us
