Eduard Khil aka 'Mr. Trololo'

Singer -- via en.ria.ru. Oddly, this Internet video hit starring Khul was originally not just nonsense syllables. It was a song called "I Am So Happy to Be Coming Home," about a cowboy riding home to his farm in Kentucky. It being Cold War Soviet Union at the time, he lyrics were banned due to their pro-American sentiments. Khul performed the song as it is known now. Fifty years later, it became a kitschy hit.
