    Here's my favorite Russian music video, which also seems to be a home video of one of Uncle Fester's vacations:

     

     

    Translation of the lyrics as given by a random youtuber (so it might be wrong, but I've not reason to think it is):

     

     

    The boy wants to Tambov
    You know Chiki-Chiki-Chiki-Chiquita
    The boy wants to Tambov
    You know Chiki-Chiki-Chiki-Chiquita

    But did not fly there today airplanes
    And do not go even train
    But did not fly there today airplanes
    And do not go even train

    You were standing at the edge of the sea
    And looking at the old pier
    And with mooring one boy
    The trouble suddenly shouted his

    The wind phrase took the boy sat down on the sand
    And wept for the child-and you
    Ran up to him sat at the feet of
    And said: you should Not water
    Ran up to him sat at the feet of
    And said: you should Not water

    But did not fly there today airplanes
    And do not go even train
    But did not fly there today airplanes
    And do not go even train

    To you he looked furtively
    And tear a flash of fire
    From his smile became hot
    You was so much fun together

    He held out his hand and said, " let us Go
    Sea quietly пропело: Adventurous
    Takes your carefree casual affair
    Now for seventeen weeks
    Takes your carefree casual affair
    Now for seventeen weeks

    And here's something from a little further east. The name of the band is Qetiq:

    You win the thread. This is awesome!

    The Dschingis Khan goodness doesn't stop there.

     

     

    That fact that these songs exist gives me a glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe, the human race isn't completely ****ed.

    Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

    Normally, I wouldn't link Rahsaan Roland Kirk playing fewer than 3 wind instruments at once, but this particular performance caught my fancy.  (Also, there really isn't enough live footage of the guy out there on the 'tubes.)

    That her face, at first just ghostly, 
    Turned a whiter shade of pale  ♫

    Holy ****, my man rocks a recorder and a flute at the same time, then breaks out a saxophone, because, why the **** not?  Meanwhile his band is dropping down jazz deliciousness.  I can get down with this.  :yes:

    I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

    Heard it on some compilation album called Chain D.L.K. Compilation CD #1. Not usually a fan of German lyrics, but wumpscut can be an exception.
