  • Mein Onkel sang einst Ivan Rebroff eine einäugige Frau zu beeindrucken. Sie zwinkerte ihm vor summend auf seinem einäugigen russische Schlange.

  • epic

  • This is right here is clear example and one of the highest exponents of what real music is. Regardless of all the problems that Russia as a nation has gone or may be going through right now or in the past, you have to admit that they have a rich culture, in the arts, the music, literature and much more. That's why I hate it so much when I hear the stupidity, hatred, bigotry and flat out cynicism from ultra-nationalists and other uber Russia strong crowd, like if the Cold War hasn't ended.

  • russian hospitality is legendary yes no

  • Hello Frezamb would u be able to post the full version of the 1968 version m8 ?

  • Is there a full version of the first one somewhere on youtube?

  • Legit, this guy made Paul Robeson look like Nickleback.

  • christian countries, agri based. developing economies.. one is ancient.. one is new..

    there are more similarities then you might think at first glance.

  • первый вариант намного лудше!

  • Thank you very much. Miss him greatly. I'm familiar with yet a third version. None of the three are the same interpretation but each is as incredible as the other. RIP, Ivan.

  • I am constantly exposed to the music of today (which some agree needs originality, meaning and whatnot) and I still enjoy this kind of music as it gives feeling that the music today cannot.

  • i enjoy the first one more, it is has more deep and meaningful music

  • I like it

  • spashibo ot holland ,Horosho rusky, horosho.

  • First one is the best

  • RUSSIA!!!!!! soon with bush gone.. and putin talking to obama once again. again we will be brothers soon!

    as we should be. brothers.

  • Russia and America... Brothers as Red White Blue and Gold!

    Hopefully with Obama America and Russia will become friends.

  • Comment removed

  • chocoboy02 - Tsarist Russia and America has nothing in common!!!!!!

  • @MrJa77 - Not yet but check back in about 10 years..

  • @MrJa77 Who would think that? We have no peasant class, we're industrialized and our only monarch (Washington) didn't even accept the crown and instead declared a republic.

    Anyone that compares the USA to the RE is an idiot. lol

  • "Comrades in Arms" My WWII vet father in law used to say about Russia.

    JeffinMNUSA

  • what means?

  • The RF and USA should remember the Cold War is over and move forward together. If the Left can regain the power they enjoyed in both countries during the Great Depression, the revolution will be victorious!

  • I like the 1992 version better. Masculine, very masculine.

  • I must disagree, the medieval-like chorus on the first one owns the souls of all who hear it. Don't get me wrong, the 1992 one is legit too.

  • this music is what u really really can call music...The music that we have now is just a punch of fucking crap...

  • life is hard there. real hard. it makes amazing music and art. suffering on a unimaginable scale. but tough people . tough as nails.

    Here are examples of Ivan Rebroff's 2 versions of the "song of the Volga Boatmen". Fist, records in 1968 on the LP "Folk Songs from Old Russia Vol 2". Second, records in 1992 on the CD "Kalinka". ...

  • Ivan is music hero

  • Bravo Ivan Rebroff!

    Inspite of the 1968's version being the best of them, he had always a awesome voice and a wonderful interpretation.

    Once again: Bravo Ivan Rebroff!

    And thank you for posting this two versions, Frezamb! Thank you!

  • i got the lyrics of htis song and others in cyrillic and english

  • mnn d'accord et tu as reussi a prouver quoi avec ton commentaire à la con?

  • Russian music always sounds so hauntingly melancholy. I guess if any single people, other than the Jews, has a right to sing sadly of their past, it's probably the Russians. Such a beautiful culture.

  • I would say that Russian songs are rather nostalgic. I think it has to do with the retrospective mentality of this wonderful people.

  • Correction: Pls read INTROVERTIVE and not "retrospective". Apologies.

  • Visit Russia before you say anything negative. It is a beautiful country filled with wonderful people who go out of their way to be helpful to strangers.

  • You are right. The song, is an ancient popular russian song, sung also by Shaliapin . The russian popular songs are beautiful .But this songs, must be sung only in russian.

  • Da!!!

  • Fools, Can't even enjoy some music without quarreling from behind your keyboards? What are you all going to do, get up, dust the cheetos off your lap and fight about who's country is better? Try visiting the other one before reserving your ignorant opinions............fools.

  • quite true scotty

  • BODKA is a spirit.

  • beauty personified. bravo comrade! thank you a great deal.

  • russia!belgium!netherlands!!!f­tw!!!!!!!!!

  • FUCK AMERICA!!!GOD BLESS RUSSIA!!!!Fucking american...i'll kick ur fucking ass son of bitches

  • Ivan Rebroff was a German. He was very popular when I was growing up in Germany. It was funny when he was giving interviews on German TV, with a very different voice from his singing voice. He was smart and funny, and he had a great thing going with the whole Russian getup.

  • i love russian music sooo amazing much. eastern european music has so much feeling in it. always has. western music almost sounds flat .

  • thats because vodka has a lot of spirit ;D

  • hahahaahahahahahaahahahhah smile

  • This song is without the slightest exagerration is a distinguished part of the World cultural heritage.

    The symbolism it contains about our common Humanity, about its eternal daily struggle and its destiny, which it conveys on the deepest level, where it continues to resonate long after the last note has been played and sung is simply phenomenal.

    BTW These were remarkably good renditions. The first version is a more classic one, the second is somewhat more intimate, but equally enjoyable.

  • the usa has really been a fat hog. in some ways. this will teach us, we are not invulnerable, like bush may have thought.

  • ron. first. how does anyone here know where i live. second. dont they know upon my death. this country would come down on them like a ton of soviet steel

  • ron. i am rather strong for my size. 6 foot 200 lbs plus. i think it would take alot to murder me.

  • i have lyrics to volga boatmen if you want it. it is a big thing. more than 500 charecters. but here goes

  • This guy's great! Apparently, he died, so too bad. Great voice.

  • russian music should live forever in our hearts. i have lyrics to this song. great song, russia may not always play by the rules, and may scare the living hell out of USA. but her music is always so much heart it is heard to let it fall through the cracks like bush has. RUSSIA!

  • el cantante favorito de mi abuelita y mi mama

  • Great song from an English Comrade. Mother England/Russia, long live the Russian people

  • Great song!!!

  • Could you possibly post the full 1968 version? I can't seem to find it anywhere and I really like it.

  • An absolutely superb song which reveals the melancholic nature of the Russian people.

  • the russian music is so deep so powerfull in his sound

  • AMAZING! But net lags takes the video ages to load, pisses me off.

  • Gracias por subir a youtube esta joya.

  • i grew up listening to this man... i love the memories it is bring back.

  • had the chance to see him yesterday, sat in the 1st row direct in front of him - it was amazing! He was kind and warm as ever - the audience loved him!

  • That doesn't surprise me, he IS amazing ! :-)

    Long life to him...

  • He died today... R.I.P.

  • @Frezamb spooky

  • Thank you for posting, I saw Ivan in 1970 live I was only 12, I've never forgotten the experience.
