  • The bass who sings this is great!

  • Comment removed

  • @mix1992bbr Why don't you cut out the pish and just listen to the music without bending over and making your arse available for every pervert to shag?

  • I`am Polish and BIG THX 4 Russian heroes to beat nazi!!!!!

  • @MegaMike500 lol they raped your greatgrandmother

  • @MegaMike500 Yeah, thank them for taking in your country. Retard.

  • Hard work, loyalty, strength, honor. The Volga Boatmen... Yo heave yo-ho.

  • Fedorrrrrrr

  • Give to the Russians to come up with a song about working on the Volga River that ends up being used in America as a funeral march.

  • shivers down my spine....awesome!

  • Very nice. Goose bumps. Thanks for posting.

  • It is hard for other cultures to understand what slavic people call "slavic soul".

  • @usptact Dirty mongoloids.

  • @eedobee u mad?

  • Music has no boundaries!! Ii belongs to the humankind!! Enjoy this lovely song!!

  • I like how it starts...so slow like someone is loosing his patience quietly until he hits the table with his fist! This is the image i always had about russian songs!

  • People saying that there was no racism in the U.S.S.R are short sighted. Many people could not get into institutions because they were Jewish - Vygotsky is sort of an example - he got in, but it took him much longer and he didn't get to do many of the other things that other students got to do.

    I certainly don't understand the blindness some people willingly endure - one comment said that only people who really disagreed with Communism were dragged away, but otherwise everybody was happy.

  • @ATubaPerson

    This is horrible. "Well, some people suffered, but I'm happy so whatever!"

  • Imagine if you were a German soldier in the ruins of Stalingrad, and you hear one voice singing this, then other voices join in from the buildings all around you...

  • @blindthrall haha id be pretty fricken scared... and amazed! :)

  • @blindthrall I would be both amazed and scared shitless.

  • @blindthrall shitten der bricken und runnen away.

  • Russia lost her soul when russia allowed the US Army to march on Red Square, (May 9, 2010)...russia is now a prostitute of the United States.

  • @AmericanStory1 not Russia, but its leaders are indeed real whore

  • @AmericanStory1 Would you say that they have been... "prostituted to the West?" I think Russia itself is kind of a wild card, but the rates of actual prostitution in former Communist countries is staggering, especially the Baltic states.

  • Against songs like this the Germans never had a chance. The Nessun Dorma of Russia. I absolutely love it.

  • We should take Bikini Bottom and push it somewhere else!

  • IN SOVIET RUSSIA, SONG SINGS YOU

  • Translation: "WE MUST PUSH LITTLE KART!"

  • @nightfall221 Come, Sing with me!

  • The song of my local football club in Australia!! Go the dockers!!!

  • oh yeah niggz

  • они что специально поют так, чтобы ни чего понять было невозможно ??? ))

  • That song scares me! It makes me think of KGB and it's gruesome tortures. Jeez, the poor Russian's life used to be damn hard and cruel. My father told me lots of stories of his memorable 6 years Siberian holiday...

  • @klemens3333 yeah, right...sarkasmus

  • @BigAndTall666

    You're right, it's the mood of the melody, divulging depressed pain and suffering...

  • @klemens3333 My father in the contrary told me that in the Soviet time, there was no racism, ppl were living happily together, and nobody was starving at all.He told me that it was true that you would get caught by the KGB for expressing ur opinion,but only if it was radically against communism, which wasnt most of the cases cuz ppl lives happy.

    Nowadays in Russia, there's too much racism,skum etc Ppl with black hair cant go outside after 18:00 or they get beaten up etc,

    comment on this plz

  • @Kyoulicious I believe you and I'm not surprised: The same happened with East Germans... for they too suffered for over 50 years communist oppression. A few more generations down the road will get it right. :)

  • @Kyoulicious I don´t know where your father had this info from, but the stories I heard from many former Soviet Union inhabitants speak a different language, especially between ethnic Russians and Caucasus people such as Georgians and Armenians. Best example for the failure of communist non-racism is former Jugoslavia. Under Tito they tried to hold things together, after the fall of the Iron curtain, the Balkans ended up in a civil war massacre, with former neighbours hating each others guts.

  • Love this song and the jazz Glenn Miller version too.

  • Since I'm an anonymous troll, the only way you could have an inkling of my sexual orientation is if you mistook the object in your butt for my cock. On the other hand, your idiocy is here on display for all to see.

  • Every popular video on You Tube has it's comments devolve into poorly conceived political arguments. No one cares about your views that you've developed from reading the Wikipedia article on the Soviet Union... But to end the argument once and for all. The Soviets were gay, each and every one of them was gay, and we all know that once you establish that something is gay, it can not be discussed anymore.

  • @ianforallseasons if that wasnt sarcastic youre retarded

  • Comment removed

  • @FIFA07Addicted If this isn't obviously sarcastic to you, then who's the retard, hm.

  • @ColonelSmoke dude shut up, Ive heard so many idiotic things in youtube that anything that seems sarcastic might be literal. if you dont know youtube then whos the retard, hm. loser.

  • @FIFA07Addicted You're an idiot, but I'm being sarcastic.

  • @wwwwwwwfe youre a faggot, but im being sarcastic too dont worry. good troll. go to sleep.

  • Comment removed

  • @ianforallseasons

    Actually, once someone makes blanket statements calling something gay, they have lost the argument.

  • I meant KGB by Binary Star, they sampled this

  • Try to separate people and culture from politics, then you'll appreciate the beauty of the song (and the talent of the boys from Alexandrov Choir) full stop!

  • In soviet russia, song sings you

  • This song reminds me of an orgasm.  It works up to an epic epic climax and then slowly winds down the gears while still making you exhale with relief.

  • KGB

  • @13PHXnash13 Killing Gloves of Boxing

  • @13PHXnash13 komitet gorodniye butetsva

  • While you discuss your tired political spam, I'll be enjoying the music.

  • @Benjaminy2k Amen to that!

  • @Benjaminy2k

    well said my friend ... well said :)

  • ♫ I'm a bad troll, a very bad troll...♫

  • @CidTheNinja +100 points for obscure reference

  • i prefer the other version.

  • IM A BAD HEAVY

    A VERY BAD HEAVY

  • Accurately portrays the struggle and toil of the working people, which must be liberated from the failing system that is capitalism.

  • @neosoc only people with money can do anything. without it.. i tell you it is hard.

  • @neosoc

    Bitch, please. Capitalism may not be perfect, but it is a hell of a lot better than any other economic system.

  • @Aughiris No man, you're wrong. The capitalism isnt the best way, at least not for people withouth money. It is good for business men. Like Alemania, the democristianism has made a great work with the capitalism, but not USA. Comunism doesn't exist. Only Socialism, acording to Marx, of course. And the proof it's called CHINA. A social based system that becomes a giant. Of course, with domestic issues. Greetings!

  • @samsael

    The fact that you're claiming that China is a socialist country makes it clear that you have absolutely no fucking clue what you're talking about. No offense.

  • @Aughiris Is not socialist? Then? Enlight me. As far as I know, LA REPUBLICA POPULAR DE CHINA (in english: People's Republic of China) it's a country based on the social care and fair economic distribution, plus, the propierty are public, not private. So, tell me again, are the PRC a capitalistic country? Ignorance isn't a offense per se, the offense lies in the words of the ignorant and imprudent people.

  • @samsael

    Hahaha, oh man. Your post cracked me up. How about you read that last sentence of yours, very, very carefully.

  • @Aughiris So, tell me. China = capitalism? Don't laugh, answer me. If you're not an ignorant guy (as you say) you must know the answer. If you don't know, then shut up and stop talking rubbish.

  • @samsael

    I wouldn't say capitalism. More like market capitalism.

  • @neosoc I've read some of the works of early 20th century philosophers who attempted to find out a way to improve capitalism. The working class took their ideas and completely blew them out of proportion and invented "communism". Marx would pull his beard hair out if he saw the things people did in his name.

  • @neosoc

    So fall only communism has fallen.

  • This song depicts Russian's history... of needless suffering and cruelty. 

  • @klemens3333

    Who told you so??

    It is "working song"!!

    and it`s inspiring for actions and purifies the soul from negative.

    Burlaks was free workers not slaves, they pulled ships with ropes.

    They sing here "We are walking on the shore, and singing a song for the lovely sun.." - They are in good mood, just hard work.

    Greets from Russia!)

  • @VIMrussia exactly, this is a kind of "river chantey". Compare the songs as "Esquibo river",

    "Rolling down the river" (Rolling up, rolling down, we'll get drunk in Tilbury town") etc. Greetings from Poland/Privet!!

  • Choir is spy!

  • One of my favorite Russian songs.

  • Trololololololo XD

  • Болга Волга Сербский путь!

    Živel Матери России

    Привет из Сербии <3

  • its a old work song. not surprising. epic.

  • The tune is Peter the Great's song in CiV4

  • The Russians are masters of making use of the Human Voice en mass as a musical instrument.

  • what is that beat called ?

  • Amazing

  • I am only listening to this because it's in Civilization IV...lol

  • @BeowulfVids

    Ignorant

  • Great song and lyrics.

  • those who are down trodden, and rejected are welcome on my channel.I was rejected often as a child.. i know what that is like. this is what i stand for.

  • And now certain gamers will forever associate it with a soda-addicted boxer.

  • @RealParadoxBlues Sorry I didn't understand that Is it a soundtrack  to a game?

  • It plays in Soda Popinski's intro in Punch-Out for the Wii.

  • That's cool : )

  • My Nanna's coffin was wheeled down the aisle of the church to this A most excellent arrival for her final departure She always was a lefty god bless her

  • LOL - I think your Nanna would be a tad disappointed. it's not a "lefty" song. It's an old - very old! - sea shanty sung by Russian boat workers on the shores of the Volga as they'd haul freight towards the barges. The entire gist of the song is "yo, ho, let's pull!" with a stanza of praise to the Volga river.

  • Yeah OK a barge man's sea shanty hijacked by the Red Army Choir I won't tell my dad though he's to the right and we love stirring him up about it

  • Well it is a left song in the fact that the Volga is an integral part of Soviet culture.

  • Yo, Heave ho... Yo, Heavo ho... Once more, Once again, Still once more Yo, heave ho... Yo heave ho... Now we fell the stout birch tree Now we pull hard, one, two, three Ay-da, da, ay-da! Ay-da, da, ay-da! Now we pull hard, one, two, three.. I could go on :p
  • Please do! Certainly doesn't sound like a capitalist penned it lol

  • Hmm. It doesn't want to add the last part of it.

  • I'll try again. Hey, hey, let's heave a-long the way to the sun we sing our song Yo, heave ho! Yo, heave ho! Once more, once again, still once more Volga, Volga our pride, Mighty stream so deep and wide. Ay-da, da, ay-da! Ay-da, da, ay-da! Volga, Volga you're our pride. Yo, heave ho! Yo, heave ho! Once more, once again, still once more Yo, heave ho! Yo, heave ho!
  • Quite often this song would've been sung by sailors, rowing a boat. They would sing it to keep in rhythm, sort of like how we have "Row Row Row yer boat" and other similar things.

    As such they would continue to repeat it.

  • Thank you so much :) I can email this to my mum and all her sisters every anniversary I remember singing Row your boat with 30 000 people at a Pink Floyd concert in Western Australia Would love to sing this with that many people too Cheers comrade hehehe xxxooo

  • Tis' not a problem. :P

  • @iamantony1 'The communist creed to each his ability to each his need The capitalist creed to each his gullibility to each his greed' Joe Stack's suicide note before flying his Piper Cherokee into the IRS in Austin Texas

  • @TheBlackrobin

    I take it you are in favour of the communist creed then? :p

  • Well they say if your not a communist when your young you don't have a heart and if your not a capitalist when your 60 then you don't have a brain So yeah I Guess I'm not going to have a brain when I'm older lol Love Hanzel und Gretyl hadn't heard of them before Cheers!

  • @TheBlackrobin

    XD Tis' not a problem. I have heard of that. A former KGB officer even said a slight twist on it in the form of "If you are not a communist by 20 you have no heart. If you are still a communist by 40 you have no head."

    I cannot remember his name.

  • Spasiba Yeah that's the one I heard I just forgot it I don't know who wrote it though Everyone gets a laugh out of it though The classic human condition Ha-Ha! Puzhalsta If your interested you can check my music out MYSPACE 'BLACK MAVRICK and THE NEW WORLD RECORD'

  • Haha Finite is the free market!

  • I would like this song played at my funeral.

  • @eksadiss Well, you can buy his CD "Jazz på ryska", that's what I did.

  • Natasha, where is Moose and Squirrel

  • im no russain or a soviet supporter but a good song is a good song

  • russia ftw

  • AHHHH THE MOTHALAND!!!

  • red army choir...legend forever!!!!!!!

  • This song is Soda Popinski's opening music in the NES version of Punch Out!!. Though his version has a faster tempo.

  • Damn commies sure can sing; and what a song!

  • Once also the American army could sing but therefore we must go back to the secession war, some 150 ys. ago.

    Soon the national American army will not longer exist and be replaced by contractors like Blackwater who recruit ex convicts and pay better which is really an insult to the ordinary G.I.

  • Our brave warriors fight and die for a Republic that throws them away after they're no longer useful cannon folder. Worst part is they're all volunteers.

    More respect must be shown to them.

  • @dmkavidelly, that problem is taken care of in replacing volunteers by blackwater contractors and I reckon they are well insured in case of disaster.

  • Blackwater are terrorists. We need patriotic warriors, not backstabbing mercenaries that would gladly turn their guns on us if offered the right price.

  • My great grandmother, known only as babushka, used to hum this to me as a child.

  • we are the red plague, the world shall tremble, for Stalin and Lenin, uraaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!

  • zark, jeeze, how many times do you have to fail??? Even your puppet, Obama is finding out that the US refuses to be Communist. WE ARE A FREE NATION!!!!=Stefan=

  • chengloki, what a pity for I was hoping the United States of America would fill up the existing vacuum and change its name into the Soviet Union of America.

    We have enough Jews to organise the thing you know, even more as those who formed the Bolshevic Party !

    "YES WE CAN !!!!"

  • evanje, my parents escaped the Soviet Union after the war. Why, in God's Name wouid I wan't a Soviet Union of America? I don't wan't to wait 3 hours in line to by toilet paper. Or maybe 5 hours to buy shoes, and if your lucky, both the same size. We have a damned good life in the US. If you don't like it, move to China or Russia. Don't change my country. My parents came here for us to be free. And I will fight for my freedom!!! They're are a lot like me. Tuck your tail and run, kid!! =Stefan=

  • Chengloki, why do you end your comments always on =Stefan= ?

  • envanje, that's my name. =Stefan=

  • Stefan's an awesome name!

  • Finally someone who make sense on one of these videos.

  • @chengloki

    yes, americans had a good life but only for reason their multinationals exploited the rest of the world, condemning its population to poverty. So if you have any sense of honour in your vains its nothing to be proud of.

  • envaje, So you think that every American is high up on a multinational corp.? News to me. I've been out of work for over a year, Thank God my kids are grown and on their own! I just have to worry about my mortgage, now. Honor? I know what it means. Do you? (Yeah, blame USA for every time a little pissant country shits on it's people). It's our fault. All I got to say is, "Fuck you very well". Try reading history, and not the liberal rewrites. And learn how to spell! =Stefan=

  • chengloki, there's a difference between the US involving itself in WW2 while it did so for it needed to defend itself. War declaration came from the side of the japanese (in a very coward way a few hours after they raided pearl harbour). Afterwards the US started (by while secret) wars on several poor nations, especially in latin america, not to protect the US. but to protect the interests of US. multinationals, supporting dictators, that's where they failed.

  • You remarks about the dachas, saddams palaces and maos killings are correct but right because that were crimes they cannot be used to justify US crimes against humanity. You make a mistake categorising me between the US haters, in fact I spend more time defending the US, especially against new immigrants from third world countries who live a life of luxury in the US and at the same time calling it a shithole and how much better their beloved russia or india is. You're off the roll now !

  • envanje, while I'm thinking about it, how many Soviet peasants had dachas on the Black Sea? (USA's fault). How many magnificent palaces did Saddam have while his people starved? (USA's fault). How many millions did Mao murder? (About 50-70 million. again USA's fault). Keep blaming USA, you're good at it. Seems like your ilk are good at nothing else, but blaming the USA. You shure haven't done anything else. (Just whine)! =Stefan=

  • envanje (you got me on a roll) hey, l bet you blame the US for Hitler murdering the Jewish, and for Stalin starving millions of Ukrainians while he lived fat, dumb and happy. Well, let's go all the way. The US crucified Jesus. (Never mind we didn't exist back then). But it had to be the US! All I can say about you is, millions of sperm in the flow, and THAT is the one that got through. If you want to debate further, we'll go on the side. We talk facts. (If you you can manage it). =Stefan=

  • that is crap. After wwII we went out of our way to get the countrys that were devastated by war back on their feet. with out our help your country would still be in a sorry state.

  • If only you made sense

  • no we won't.

  • Good Lord! WHAT A VOICE!! Bravo!!!

  • long live equality and workers rights. CCCP!

  • Hello from Belgrade my russian brothers.CCCC & CCCP
