Such uncommon songs u find only in channels like this. Very interesting.

[@cortexradio]

Was this used as an anti-Soviet song?

[@Niemandisch]

possibly, from what I know though it's a parody that talks about a girl named Katyusha from Karelia. most likely an anti-Soviet song since it talks about defending the motherland from the Russians.

[@Puistokemisti]

Originally recorded in 1943 by A. Aimo, it most definitely was used as Anti-Soviet Propaganda

[@Floppa_eslavo]

It's a Finnish version

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

When translating this song shouldnt the name still be Katjuusa in english? since that is her name. I dont get why the name is made russian when translating from finnish to english.

[@TapWaterTaffy]

it might have to do with the historical context of the original song which was in Russian

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

@@TapWaterTaffy yeah still weird tho, people dont usually translate names. expecially since katyusha is russian and in english it would be katherine.
