Cara al Sol ( Spanish for "Facing the Sun") is the anthem of the Falange, the main current of Spanish Fascism. The lyrics were written by the right-wing law student and Falange co-founder José Antonio Primo de Rivera, and the music composed by Juan de Tellería, to fulfill the Falangists' need for a rousing song to rival A Las Barricadas, the popular anthem of the Spanish Anarchists. The result, following a period of committee review, was titled the Himno de Falange Española. It was first performed in Madrid in 1936. Its popularity was boosted by Primo de Rivera's death and subsequent apotheosis by the Spanish Nationalists, who would later win the Spanish Civil War (compare with the circumstances of the Nazi anthem Horst Wessel Lied and its eponymous Brownshirt martyr, Horst Wessel). For much of the 20th century, the song served as the unofficial anthem of Spain. Even decades after the collapse of Franco's regime, Cara al Sol is still commonly sung by members of the Spanish far-right. ...more on Wikipedia about "Cara al Sol"
