I'm a huge fan of Soviet Russian music and culture. This is a small collection of photos-- weapons, leaders, flags, famous battles-- that encompass that era of Russian history that fascinates me so.

    beautifull song!

  • I just wanted to say that when he made this comment two months ago I did, in fact, send him the lyrics and tons of additional information about the song, and anyone else is welcome to that information if they want it.

    Simply message me.

  • What is the name of the song??

  • It's often called "Farewell to the Slav" by english-speaking people.

    The song was composed in 1912, as Russia was awash in rumors about the impending new Balkan War, in which the Slavs would be pitted against the Ottoman Turks, and Orthodox Christianity aganst Islam. Although, this particular war did not materialize, the song spread like wildfire, and became the most popular military march during WWI as well as WWII.
