[Vietsub + Lyrics] Rasputin - Boney M

“Rasputin” is a 1978 euro disco hit single by the Germany-based pop and disco group Boney M. It’s the second track on their album Nightflight to Venus. With a tune resembling the second half of the Turkish folk song “Kâtibim”, it is a semi-biographical song about Grigori Rasputin, a friend and advisor of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and his family during the early 20th century. The song variously sensationalizes Rasputin as a playboy, mystical healer, and political manipulator.

Although “Rasputin” was written and performed in English, it enjoyed great popularity in the USSR and is credited with reviving Rasputin’s fame there. The song was, however, omitted from the Soviet pressing of the album and Boney M. were barred from singing it in any of their ten performances in Moscow in December 1978.

* ”Cat” is a ‘70s slang term for a cool guy. “Really was gone” means he was losing/had lost his mind, which makes sense given that Rasputin is often referred to as the “Mad Monk”.
