The best thing ever?

You decide.

Stick around for the falsetto.

Wow, I'm surprised to learn that this video is real.

Primetime entertainment in the Soviet Union!

It's been stuck in my head all day. This is entirely Caleb's fault.

Dad said...

I like it.

I think the best part is that it's not a hard song at all. He makes a big deal out of it, but he's essentially doing warm-ups.

Eduard Khil (the singer) quoted from the Trololo wiki:

"I haven't heard anything about it. It's nice, of course! Thanks for good news!

There is a backstory about this song. Originally, we had lyrics written for this song but they were poor. I mean, they were good, but we couldn't publish them at that time. They contained words like these: "I'm riding my stallion on a prairie, so-and-so mustang, and my beloved Mary is thousand miles away knitting a stocking for me". Of course, we failed to publish it at that time, and we, Arkady Ostrovsky and I, decided to make it a vocalisation. But the essence remained in the title. The song is very naughty – it has no lyrics, so we had to make up something for people would listen to it, and so this was an interesting arrangement."
