Are there any resources online for HOI2-relevant WWII music? I'm currently looking for some more Russian and Italian(and maybe even a few (Romanian/Finnish/Hungarian) WWII songs to round out my current collection(I can't stand the bland music that Paradox has to offer)- I've already downloaded the Russian National Anthem of the period from the Stony Road music pack and I have a couple of folk-songs(Katyusha etc.) but I need more for a future Russian game. - you'd think that since all these songs are decades past the copyright period that it would be easier to download them, but not so... and I don't want to have to buy yet more CDs if I can possibly avoid it.

Launch e-mule and enter in search field "red army chorus". I think you'll find plenty of suitable songs.
Or better yet, take a look around and you shall find what you seek:

Many, many, many mp3 files of Soviet-era songs:

Some, but not all, have lyrics/translations.

Just had a look at some of the sites mentioned. I'm somewhat hampered by my lack of knowledge of the Russian language, unfortunately, so I can't really appreciate the songs properly, but what I heard was just right for the game, in many cases. Thanks.
