Took up learning Russian, it was great! Opened up new music and cultures. I still love my American lifestyle, but Russia seems pretty cool. All I need now is to get a Russian keyboard so I don't have to constantly switch and mix up the English letter spelling and the original Russian letters XD

Coming from an American Historian, it is still mind numbing to me the arrogance of the education system when it comes to WWII. Many people think we single handedly took down Hitler, nevermind the British Commonwealth or French. The Russians aren't even remotely mentioned. I remember as a senior in HS the teacher saying Stalingrad was the turning point of WWII then moving right on to D-Day. While Communism,Stalin and the NKVD/SMERSH were horrific, it is a crime against history to forget the deeds of millions of Red Army soldiers.

The Red Army Choir is, in my opinion the finest group of singers ever assembled.

Tonight I started playing tug of war with a blanket with my 4 year old grand-daughter. As I pulled, I hummed from memory the tune of the Volga Boat Song. Though I only heard it in Russian, over 60 years ago, I knew just from the melody that this was a song sung by men as they pulled boats and barges along the river.What a powerful image captured in song.

Here's a fun fact: This music "The Song of the Volga Boatman", is featured in the NES videogame "Pipe Dream" (a Tetris-like game, only the object is to lay enough pipe on a square grid for an oil path to flow). FTWDNK: The player gets 3 wrenches that act as arcade game credits. When you run out, it's game over. If you make a mistake, like placing the wrong pipe in front of the flow path, and you haven't gotten very far from the START point, the game abruptly disintegrates all of your work on the grid, leaving only the stub. There's silence, a wrench disappears, then "The Song of the Volga Boatman" is played (in crude, 8-bit style). Music is fascinating. A kid could hear this with zero knowledge of the piece's origin and know that the piece is ominous. In the context of "Pipe Dream", it's chastising the player for screwing up.

I came here from Glenn Miller's version. They are both really good but so different.

Actually its an old folk song that was sang by very poor Burlaks that pulled ships up the Volga river. In fact, Burlak originated from the word Bujdak, which means Homeless. Most Burlaks were landless peasants.Its pretty crazy to look back in history like this. These people were so incredibly poor it was cheaper to pay a bunch of them to do the work of a few horses/mules. Basically, these people were economically and on a per hour basis speaking, their time was worth much less than a fucking donkey's time.
