Featured song: "Korobeiniki"
"Korobeiniki" is the third track and lead single off of The Doubble Donkey Disc by Ozma. It is an adaptation of a nineteenth-century Russian folk song of the same name, and it is one of the band's most recognizable songs. It is perhaps best known under the name "Tetris."
The lyrics of the original "Korobeiniki" tell the story of a meeting between a peddler and a girl, describing their haggling over goods in a metaphor for courtship. The song is most well-known outside of Russia for its inclusion in various versions of the video game Tetris, most notably the arrangement by Hirokazu Tanaka for the Game Boy version of Tetris. Both the Tetris and Ozma arrangements of the song are instrumentals.
