‘Mr. Trololo’ Dies After Stroke

Russian singer Eduard Khill was 77

A prominent Russian baritone Eduard Khil died in a St. Petersburg hospital at the age of 77.

Khil, a recipient of the People's Artist Award in the Soviet Union, became famous in the West after his song of 50 years ago, I Am So Happy to Finally Be Back Home, which contains no words but only a melody of a series of «tro-lo-los,» hit the internet.

The Trololo song, according to Khil had originally featured lyrics describing a cowboy riding a horse to his farm; however, the Soviet Union rejected the lyrics because of the association with American lifestyle.

Khil was born in Smolensk on September 4, 1934. He died Monday morning after irreversible damage from a stroke at the end of May.
