Cara al Sol
"Cara al Sol" ("Facing the Sun") is the anthem of the Falange Española de las JONS, the Falangist party of the Spanish far right. In 1935 the Falangists wanted a stirring song of their own to answer the "Himno de Riego", the official anthem of the Second Spanish Republic, and "A las Barricadas", a very popular anarchist song.
