Boney M - Rasputin (Lyrics)

[@plato5561]

The mood, ebb and flow of this song just powers me up no matter how down I am, truly amazing.

[@Dailymailnewz]

He knew he would be killed so he predicted two things and both came to pass and it was terrible for Russia. Also, they had to put him at the bottom of the river for nearly 3 days to kill him because after shooting him he was still breathing and did not die the whole day... He was indeed an amazing man and we may never know who he really was because everyone just tells their own stories but the prediction that he made were so accurate and on time that won him everlasting fame.

Yeah, it includes the assumed way he was assassinated at the end. You could argue that the river he was dropped in killed him and it wasn't included, but the official autopsy on his body says otherwise. It also included the bad reputation of Rasputin, partially because the public thought he was negativity affecting the Russian war effort in ww1.

[@Raju-zj5rq]

It's one of my favorite melodious songs of 70s. It's still afresh.

[@Hessian1011]

This actually tells the story of Rasputin, his rise and fall the terrible legacy he left behind. Whatever else you can say about him, he did have some strange ability not only to make the little tsarevitch stop bleeding, but he also made several predictions that came true. He warned the Tsar not to go to war in 1914, and before his death he predicted that if he were to be assassinated, the dynasty wouldn't last long afterwards. He was murdered in December 1916, and the Romanovs were overthrown the following March.

[@faun7179]

To be fair he didn’t really make a prediction anyone with sense and some prior history knowledge could have counseled the tsar not to do that.

[@CrazyBoyAndyTV]

Helps that he was The Master, who'd travelled back in time to set up some stuff against the Doctor

[@riffleicious]

Also, like the song says, poison didn’t seem to have any effect on him.

[@mz19747]

Rasputin's Role in Russia: Who was Rasputin? Rasputin, whose full name was Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin, was a Russian mystic and influential figure during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was born in 1869 in a small Siberian village and gained notoriety for his association with the Russian imperial family, particularly with Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra. Rasputin was known for his supposed healing abilities and charismatic personality, which earned him the favor of the Tsarina, who believed he could help treat her son, Alexei, who suffered from hemophilia, a potentially life-threatening blood disorder. His apparent ability to alleviate the young prince's symptoms earned him a significant role in the imperial court and allowed him to influence political decisions. However, Rasputin's influence and personal behavior became increasingly controversial. He was seen by many as a corrupting force on the Russian monarchy, as he engaged in immoral behavior, including promiscuity and manipulation of his followers. This led to widespread criticism and opposition from various segments of society, including members of the Russian nobility and political figures. On December 30, 1916, a group of aristocrats, led by Prince Felix Yusupov, conspired to assassinate Rasputin due to their belief that he was undermining the country's stability and the authority of the Tsar. Rasputin was invited to Yusupov's palace and given poisoned food and wine. When the poison seemed ineffective, he was shot multiple times but still appeared to be alive. Finally, he was bound and thrown into the Neva River, where he ultimately drowned. This occurred during the tumultuous period of World War I and the Russian Revolution, which eventually led to the downfall of the Romanov dynasty and the establishment of the Soviet Union.
