For the first 6 seconds I thought "ha! nice reference, good intro" The next 6 seconds I thought "oh ok they're doing multiple lines, cool I guess" Then the intro came and I'm like "alright let's see what they have to say about Rasputin" Then the intro ended and I realized they were doing most of the song, but thought they'd tie that into some critical analysis afterwards. About a minute in I realized the video is 4 minutes long and I was sorely mistaken.
Me : wants to learn about rasputin Me, while the video is loading : realizes the video was uploaded on April fool’s Me, after video : Umm... what did I just watch P.S. I loved the video
If you want to learn about him in a short amount of time that's close to the extra credits format there's a TED animated video (I know ted content is a meme but they have good stuff too!)
Rasputin actually survived an earlier attempt on his life when he was knifed, as he was a huge, physically tough man, that probably contributed to poison being not potent enough, so the THIRD real murder of him worked, so for what it's worth, the historical three attempts on his life with different weapons were a thing. Rasputin was thrown into a river. As water was found in his lungs, people gossiped about him surviving the shot and drowning, which, again, while doubtful in this specific case - is not a fantasy scenario, as even a lethal gunshot won't necessarily kill outright. FINALLY, when they burned his body, the ligaments snapped and corpse twitched - now he was 100% dead at that point but it just looked to be creepy and demonic.
Well the wine and and the cakes that had arsenic in the stuff didn't work cause the the baking of the cakes happened. And the wine dissolved the poison
1:45 was when I started to wonder "How long is this? When are they going to start the normal video?" By now, I'm starting to think it was an April Fools' Day joke...

Fun fact: Boney M didn't actually sing the original song, it was some white German guy. Said guy would later gain infamy for pulling the same thing with Milli Vanilli.
They did. Two of the three ladies in Boney M, Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett, were actual lead singers (Maizie Williams didn't sing in the studio), but their guy, Bobby Farrell, was a lip-syncing dancer, yeah, and Frank Farian, the producer, did both some of the high-pitched back vocals, and the low male voice in most of their tracks. Specifically, he pulled a Milli Vanilli with just the guy in Boney M.
@dimapez East Germany was under Soviet occupation after WW2 and later, Cold War era, the GDR had a puppet government with leaders that were too keen literally French kissing Brezhnev.
My only complaint is no “owe those Russians.” Or whatever that last line is. This was a April fools joke? This was what I needed in my life. You guys are the best

Fun fact: Boney M didn't actually sing the original song, it was some white German guy. Said guy would later gain infamy for pulling the same thing with Milli Vanilli.
So a song about a political hated russian made by a German then is most well known by a black guy. Huh the more you know.
They did.

@dimapez East Germany was under Soviet occupation after WW2 and later, Cold War era, the GDR had a puppet government with leaders that were too keen literally French kissing Brezhnev.
That "hay" sequence got a li'l bit trippy. Well, that and the ending. Even Rasputin was like "WTF?" for a moment there. XD

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the Bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire
Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar
But the kazachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son
Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
But when his drinking and lusting
And his hunger for power
Became known to more and more people
The demands to do something
About this outrageous man
Became louder and louder
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
"This man's just got to go", declared his enemies
But the ladies begged, "don't you try to do it, please"
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
"Come to visit us", they kept demanding
And he really came
Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and said, "I feel fine"
Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him 'til he was dead
Oh, those Russians
Nice
You have got so.e free time
Hell yeah 🤣👍
Hey!
Don't forget he was seen in the princesses bedroom. Now I don't know about back then but today a man not related to the girl should not be her bedroom unless he trying to save her life.
I would have been so mad if you didn’t include the song
Instead, we got a legendary remix
Imagine someone walking in as he recorded the audio
This is why I love this channel. I cried
Day 24 of self isolation: Dear diary, we now sing extra history episodes
The first line had me realize that THIS ISN'T A SATURDAY.
Nevertheless, glad to see an early upload for one of history's most intriguing people.
Correction: rasputin was never officially a monk. He never was tonsured, never took vows.
Correction, this is a song, not an actual history lesson, look it up titled ra ra rasputin.....hence why half of it oddly rhymes....bruh
Question.
What's a tonsured?
Pengin punkin Tonsuring is removing some of all hair on the scalp.

Why do I love this so much
Im not naming gonna say any names, but the quarantine has certainly effected some people more than others.

So before the video starts I'm saying they're going to doing his history to the tune of the song
Edit: so spoiler I was wrong it's just the song

Day 20 and think the madness is starting to set in.
The free style is the greatest proclaim to Poutine and randomness.
