| Hard to describe, but it sure should win SOME sort of prize.... A Finnish (punk?) rock band AND the (real) Red Army Choir singing "Sweet Home Alabama" in ENGLISH!

not sure which I get a bigger kick out of.... the Leningrad Cowboys' outfits and hairdos, or the serious looking Red Army guys really getting into it. | |

| Always loved that video! 
First saw it on MTV sometime in the late 80's..
The Lenningrad Cowboys were a fictional band, they had a movie, similar to Spinal Tap or the Rutles..
(never saw their movie..only that video..im a huge Spinal Tap and Rutles fan however!)
and yes, that is the actual Russian "Red Army Choir"! 
That video is from around 1987-1989..
I was a teenager then, I want my MTV!

| Things you never thought you'd actually see.  | |
 "If Christianity was something we were making up, of course we could make it easier. But it is not. We cannot compete, in simplicity with people who are inventing religions. How could we? We are dealing with Fact. Of course anyone can be simple if he has no facts to bother about."-- C. S. Lewis | |
