Video: Applying to join the Chinese Communist Party

(Before It's News)

I’ll soon be making some video content for this site, so to test my capability I’ve subtitled my favorite music video of all time for you. In it, a young man sings about how he summoned the inspiration to write his essay for applying to the Communist Party. After seeing this guy perform on CCTV recently, I confirmed that this is NOT a parody. It no doubt reflects the reality of how young students come to join the party. Enjoy.

If you want to learn this for KTV (as I’m sure you do) here are the Chinese lyrics. It’s called “入党申请书” (Application to join the party) by Jiang Tao 江涛,

• The lessons of history
• The party demands loyalty
• Zhang Dejiang’s political baggage
• The (lack of) logic behind what China censors
• Communist Christianity
• What Marx may have gotten right
• Divine economics
• The new Christians
• Can Lei Feng compete with Jesus?
• On China’s inferiority complex
