And the award goes to: Bez Chempionlar, the Tatar folk version of “We Are the Champions.” What’s amazing about this is, if you didn’t know the original song, you would totally believe this is a Tatar folk song:
Of course, judging from other Tatar folk music online, it’s a little more polka-esque than one might have expected. Who knew the Tatars made such liberal use of accordions?
Best of all, though, is this “Tatar hip hop” from Mongolia.
I love the Internets.
I totally LOVE Queen! Tatars are okay, too.
I can’t wait to get home from work and listen to these.
Wow, that first video is kind of amazing. Genghis Khan would be more into the last one, though.
i think we’re becoming wandering jews . . .
I have spent my whole life thinking it was “juice harp.”
