This rocks, indeed! What a cool way to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Wobblies, by discovering this version. Arigato!

Of course, I'm also reminded of the haunting young idealistic voices I heard in Tiananmen Square, singing the Internationale in Chinese (a few days before the "People's Red Army" mowed them down).

Wow.

If my Great-Uncle Waldy, whose IWW Songbook taught me the words to "The Internationale" could have heard this....
