RIP "Mr. Trololo" Eduard Khil

Hey guys.
Today's a sad day in the life of every internet and forum user. One of the most loved internet memes died today. He may be known to you as Mr. Trololo, his actual name is Eduard Khil. In the age of 77, he passed away after having witnessed a stroke in late May.
This is meant as a tribute to him.

Let us not forget him. Indeed he was a great singer. Let's keep him in our minds by letting the "Trololo"-meme live on.

Cheers.

this is a dark day for humanity.

It's good that he lived to see his work reach worldwide popularity, not many artists could say that after 40 years of relative obscurity.

Rest in peace you damn hero <3

He will be passed on to our children and their children. He shall remain forever in our hearts. Дo свuданuя Товарищ Хиль.

Apparently in an article about him his song originally had lyrics but were censored :P. Like Scat singing :P

Yeah the lyrics were about an American cowboy coming home, in the USSR cowboys and westerns were quite popular in the 50s and 60s, often with undertones of the political sort.

There should be a reward unit that replaces the Soviet sniper ace with Edhuard Khil as a soviet cowboy as a tribute <3

Iam dead serious.

R.I.P What a legend :(

This is very sad indeed. I really enjoyed that Trololo man...
