When I was a little kid, a favorite record of my friends and I was Boney M's "Night Flight to Venus."
One of my favorite songs of it was "Rasputin". Just for the heck of it, here are some versions. Feel free to dance around and sing like an idiot if you want to feel like a bunch of 11 year olds in 1979.
Let's kick things off with the original.
Here's a hard-rock cover from Turias.
And no collection of videos would be complete without a cover played on ukeles. It's almost authentically Russian, no? Ukuleles are a poor man's balalaika, I'm told!
It's a Fanny Friday

It was true in the 1920s... and it's true in the 2020s.
