My favorites are Dutch collaboration songs..............

In first place is " Daar Ging er een Scheepje" (There Sailed a Little Ship)
and in second place is "Voorwaarts, Sturmsoldat" (Forward, Stormsoldier)

Followed by any of the "Jeugdstorm" (NSB Youth) songs, for example "Wij zijn bereid" (We are prepared)

The following youtube clip contains several of the NSB Jeugdstorm songs ("Wij zijn bereid" can be heard at 2m55s).
For those that know little about the Jeugdstorm, this is lovely colour film from wartime Nederlands.....



Cheers, Bill.

Would have to agree with Carvillan there! Panzer Lied's pretty hard to beat.

Although, does anyone know the name of the song the guys start singing in Cross of Iron when Steiner orders them to sing on Leutnant Meyer's birthday...? You know, after Willi's made an ass of himself...
