Best song ever written?

I don't really give a song this distinction too often, but dare I say, this is the best song ever recorded. Originally recorded in Russia, this song made its rounds on an early 70's T.V. show in the Soviet Union.

Due to this circumstance, it did not make it to the U.S. until some time in the late 90's considering it took a few years after the end of the Cold War and the magic of the internet to unearth this classic song. I can't tell you I know too much more about the song other than that it is possibly the most beautiful song I have ever heard, in English or in any other language for that matter. Furthermore I only know the song by the title "Trolo".

I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did and pass it on, everyone needs to hear this musical masterpiece at some point in their lifetime.
