Razom Nas Bahato, Nas Ne Podolaty is a hip-hop song by GreenJolly, which became the unofficial anthem of the Ukrainian Orange Revolution in 2004. The literal translation of the song title is "Together we are many! We cannot be defeated!". It deliberately resembles a title of a famous Chilean song of Quilapayún used by the Unidad Popular, El pueblo unido jamás será vencido (The People United Will Never Be Defeated), written by composer Sergio Ortega. It was the Ukrainian entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2005 in Kiev.
This anthem, not surprisingly, was used by demonstrators in Belarus, after an election that was alleged to have irregularities.
