well done indeed.

"After the video became a YouTube hit, the crooner's new international fans petitioned to get him on a world tour. The baritone said he was flattered by the attention, but puzzled that his song became popular only three decades after it had been released."

I hope someone had a chance to explain the innernettes to him before his passing...

attention he was getting. I hope he realized that it was all in good fun.

What were the forbidden words? The whole song?

It was a nostalgic song about cowboy returning to the peaceful life one had before. It was deemed "anti-Soviet" and the lyrics were banned.

Я скачу по прерии на своем жеребце, мустанге таком-то, а моя любимая Мэри за тысячу миль отсюда вяжет для меня чулок

I'm riding across the prairie on his steed, Mustang-such as my beloved Mary for a thousand miles away for me to knit socks

Thanks for the fun spirit and being a great sport about it! 'Tis better to go in a blaze of laughter than to have gone in obscurity.
