A perfect Friday afternoon video. LOL.

did the 70's actually happen or was it just made up for our bemusement?

I think this video is great. I've probably watched it 50 times over the last two years. The creepy guy in green looks like he is right out of Black Sabbath, I love the total 80s chick. German people, pretending to be Mongolians, singing about Moscow.

Did Mongolians have pointy ears like Mr. Spock? Also sooo much satin.

Germans... pretending they are Mongolian.... singing about Russia

They're actually called Dschinghis Khan, just FYI. Dunno how many times I've listened to this previously, makes me chuckle every time.

Edit: also, d'oh on the first tag edit. Corrected now.

Their song "Dschinghis Khan" is a mad drinking song. Always comes up after a dozen beers.
