My Motherland 我的祖国 from Happy Thunder by Andy Cahan

Initially called “A Big River” by its composers Qiao Yu (lyrics) and Liu Chi (music), the title of this emotional song was changed to “My Motherland” when included in the 1956 Chinese film “Battle on Shangganling Mountain”. The song was banned during the Cultural Revolution for perceived counter-revolutionary tendencies, but regained popularity in the late 1970’s and has become an iconic song of love for the beauty and the people of one’s country.

Check out this video filmed at the 1959 Chinese New year celebration in NYC's Chinatown. Andy Cahan is the one year old dressed in blue. The rest is history.
