Mr. Trololo (Eduard Khil) gets his own Google Doodle!

in #news7 years ago

.....and it's AMAAAAAAAZING! Much wow! Such nostalgia! (Maybe a little lulz will help w/ all the tough crypto news lately)

Back in 2009 the Interweb was hit with a new Russian meme called the "Trololo Guy" or "Mr. Trololo". With a strong voice and a mouth which barely moved, many thought it was a joke. In reality, the performer was a very well known Russian singer named Eduard Khil.

His smooth voice and pimp stride was backed by strong brass and a set which could be mistaken for a 70's dance hall or porn room. Who knows, but Trololo's video now has >26 million views.

Check out that HIGH note at 1'24 mark and then the follow up super deep low note at 1'33.

Here's a video of Khil thanking his fans for his online popularity:

Even Family Guy added a cameo.

Unfortunately, Eduard Khil died on June 4, 2012 in Saint Petersburg, Russia. May his pure, brassy voice rest in peace.

Thanks for reading!

Til next time,
Ashe
