RIP Eduard Khil

2012-06-05 17:09:35.08989+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Sensible Erection informs me that the "Trololo" guy has died. His name was Eduard Khil. Apparently the original lyrics were either suppressed by Soviet censors or by a disagreement with the lyricist, making this guy kind of a Soviet punk version of Lawrence Welk.
