A camp classic, this song was controversial at the time. One of the first drag acts at Eurovision, it also contained the made-up words "Lasha Tumbai" which were alleged to sound similar to "Russia Goodbye". And, well, maybe that's true. Since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Verka Serduchka has performed the song as Dancing Russia Goodbye.
