Russia’s greatest love machine

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! …

I confess, I love Boney M’s “Rasputin.” I could dance to it all night. Why do I like it? Because it is so marvellously stupid:

But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear.

It’s like the Monty Python “Argument” sketch:

No you don’t!

The point is … I love things silly and this song is in a class of it’s own when you’re talking about silly. I love it.

Ra ra Rasputin …
