Товарищ Сталин, вы большой ученый Comrade Stalin, You’re a Great Scientist

Song about Stalin written and sung by Yuz Aleshkovsky in 1959. Popularized in Soviet times by Russian singer Vladimir Vysotsky and wrongly attributed to him in 1977. While it is not pro-Stalin it “praises“ him on various verses, alluding to the cult of personality. It serves as a somewhat ironic tribute to the late Premier and General Secretary.
