Met him here as well... are we going to organise a flypast to honor him?

R.I.P. Eduard Khil, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

In 2009, a 1976 video of Khil singing a non-lexical vocable version of the song I Am Glad, 'Cause I'm Finally Returning Back Home (Я очень рад, ведь я, наконец, возвращаюсь домой) was uploaded to YouTube[17] and became known as "Trololololololololololo" or "Trololo".[18] The name "Trololo" is an onomatopoeia of the distinctive way Khil vocalizes throughout the song. The quirky and catchy video quickly became an Internet meme and Khil became known as "Mr. Trololo" or "Trololo Man".[18]

I wonder what he thought of this ^

He enjoyed the boom that video made.He appeared in some videos addressing his fans and watching people from all around the world trying to impersonate him.He had a great laugh while watching those videos.I still remember the first time I saw that video, it was like 2 years ago and I literally rolled over the floor laughing at college.People passing by could not understand why me and my girlfriend could not stop laughing.From what I have read the original song lyrics where banned by the USSR, so Eduard as other singers decided to vocalize the song.May he rest in peace, he put a smile on a lot of people's faces.
