Prairie Love Song

music produced and arranged by Matthias Gohl

"The West" is one of a handful of documentaries that I vividly remember watching as a child and some of the music managed to stay in the crevices of my mind for several years (especially the main title which I will definitely be posting here soon). I was overjoyed when I found eMusic had the entire soundtrack. I present to you one of my favorites:


A tiny clip from the doc:

O Field, My Field / Polyushko Polye

performed by the Red Army Choir

In Russian mode... again... haha ^_^

I blame my Regional World Geography class. Last night we covered Russia and it finally hit me how MASSIVE Russia is, I mean I've always known it was big but I don't think I ever really absorbed Russia's size or how far north it is in relation to the continental U.S. until yesterday's class. Another thing I learned last night: Russia currently has one of the most rapidly decreasing populations in the world -_-* Isn't learning fun? Hopefully this knowledge will come to my aid while I'm on Jeopardy in the very distant future ^_~
