    After copying the Baltic Way, now we adapted this inspiring song to Catalan. Nice steps but I personally hope the end of the road is the same too.

    The lyrics are different though because they're based on a well-known late poet of ours, Miquel Martí i Pol. The video seems filmed in a meaningful part of Barcelona demolished by the Spanish king 300 years ago to control the Barcelonans after our defeat by building a huge military fortress. Hence why the 1714-2014 thing. A real tribute to the fallen.

    Now it's time to say Catalonia persists in all and each one of us.

    I get the impression you want us to support you.

    I must admit I didn't know this song until two days ago.

    I think the Baltic Way was a good thing to copy, though. Seeing a human chain along 400 km of coast here was impressive. Rather than looking for support, I think the organizers' aim was focused on showing that this is a peaceful process, not a Balkanoid one.

    support cant hurt, there is discussions of supporting the Catalonian cause. albeit we really don't want to deal with Spain.

    Support is very welcome indeed, and we search for it through many ways. But most of us are aware that real support won't come until things happen. Before that, most governments are going to either support the Spanish side or just say that it's a domestic affair, it's logical. I'd say the former prime minister from your country has been the only one who didn't deny his support even after the Spanish diplomacy had pressured him to, as they've done with other countries. Kudos to that.

    it's not just the former PM, it's also a former president and several important parliamentarians. Most notably L. Donskis. I like his quite, ''we have no right to deny a historic nation the right to exist.''

    Really? I didn't know about that. I sympathize now even more. I guess most people in the Baltic nations still remember their own right to exist fairly well.

    yeah, the discussion is if we should be to you, what Iceland was to us.

    Compare Baltic countries situation with the Catalan one is a joke, and only can fool people who ignore the history of Spain.
