    We may have won the cold war but clearly when it comes to raw entertainment the Russians are kicking our butts!

      Yikes - this is a German commercial trash band, nothing Russian about it except the corny pseudo-folksy topic. Man, what a waste of time.

            If I had only known that porcelain was the plan I would have invested in it and would have been a rich man today.

            Every morning I stared into the future and didn't even know it!

              I think there's something lost in translation, you think?

                I like this number Indy, in here you got "Peter The Great" singing lead, and Yul Brynner doing backup vocals...two thumbs ups!

                :oD

                  Dschingis Kahn is the name of the band. Briefly popular in the late 70's.

                  Here's the lyrics in the original Deutsch.

                  "Moskau, Moskau

                  Wirf die Gläser an die Wand

                  Russland ist ein schönes Land

                  Ho ho ho ho ho, hey

                  Moskau, Moskau

                  Deine Seele ist so groÃ;

                  Nachts da ist der Teufel los

                  Ha ha ha ha ha, hey

                  Moskau, Moskau

                  Liebe schmeckt wie Kaviar

                  Mädchen sind zum küssen da

                  Ho ho ho ho ho, hey

                  Moskau, Moskau

                  Komm wir tanzen auf dem Tisch

                  Bis der Tisch zusammenbricht

                  Ha ha ha ha ha"

                  Here's as good as I can do in English:

                  Moscow, Moscow,

                  Throw the glass against the wall,

                  Russia is a beautiful land.

                  Moscow, Moscow,

                  Your soul (center?) is so great,

                  At night you let the devil loose.

                  Moscow, Moscow,

                  Love tastes like caviar,

                  When the maidens (girls) kiss you.

                  Moscow, Moscow,

                  Let's all dance on the table,

                  Until the table smashes all apart.

                  It's actually kind of a cool song.

                      Yes, Buffalax subtitled this same group doing a song called Dchingis Khan, it was a real toss up as the Peter The Great meets Rasputin dude was heavily featured in that video.

                      Thanks for the lyrical translation, Bkumm! :)

                    That was great, but this is the one that caused me to self-extract a kidney!

                    "oooooo, you'll be pumping Ovaltine!"
