“The Party Is Always Right“ (also know as Lied Der Partei, or Song of the Party) is a party and socialist song written in the 1950s as the anthem of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (SED). The song was frequently used at congresses and events held in the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), including May Day, alongside the socialist anthem “The Internationale“ and other German socialist songs like “Auf, Auf Zum Kampf“ and “Arbeiter Von Wien.“ After the collapse of the German Democratic Republic and breakup of the SED, the song maintained its popularity and common use as a secondary anthem for many current Marxist-Leninist parties and organizations like the KPD and Roter Morgen, and Ostalgie (nostalgia for East Germany) groupings.
