Song of the Soviet Army

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unreferenced and not very well written article. Suspect that the lyrics shouldn't be there as they may be copyright. Bob Re-born (talk) 01:29, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete – I think the copyright concerns are misplaced. But I don't think this particular piece of Soviet music is noteworthy as measured by substantial coverage in reliable sources. It exists, and it's one of several written by a prolific Soviet era composer, but there's nothing much else to say about it. JFHJr (㊟) 03:04, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Seems to be a well known song. The Russians played it for the North Koreans at a concert the BBC thought noteworthy enough to cover.  "The ensemble's repertoire included colourful numbers such as wartime songs "Just War", "Song of the Soviet Army" and Russian songs well known to the Koreans".  So, its well known to the Koreans.  It was part of the official Victory in Europe celebration, and become a popular war song after that.  If someone who speaks Russian could look around for how many books with songs in them feature it, or what is taught in college level textbooks for music, it's probably there.
