The most well known song of the album is Quilapayún & Sergio Ortega’s "¡El pueblo unido jamás será vencido"!, originally composed as a march for the Popular Unity government; after the September 11, 1973 military coup it became the international anthem of the Chilean resistance. The song has been translated into a number of languages and has been heard in mass rallies, marches  and demonstrations all over the world: from students in Iran, to migrant workers in California, to pro-unification rallies in Berlin. In 2004 the song inspired "Razom nas bahato, nas ne podolaty" by GreenJolly, which became the unofficial anthem of the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine.
