Stirring, in only the way the Cowboys and Red Army Choir can.

FWIW, I really like this group. They're just cheesy enough to be interesting, and then they do something like this. :lol:

That's nothing; I've heard them do "The Star-Spangled Banner" during the Cold War!

Somewhere, I've got a cassette of the Red Army Choir singing various American classics. It doesn't
sound like any of them speak English.

Where are the pointy shoes and hair? I want my pointy shoes and hair. It's not authentic without the pointy shoes, pointy hair, gyrating female(?) prison guards and shouting military chorus. ( 8-) )
