Den Pobedy
"Den Pobedy" (Russian: День Победы , English: Victory Day ) ranks among the most popular in the large corpus of Russian songs, devoting to Second World War.
 The song refers to the Victory Day (9 May) celebration and differs from most of these by its cheerful intonations of a marching song and by the fact that it was composed some thirty years after the war.
 In the words of Vladimir Shainsky, a veteran composer, "the song seemed to have turned back the time.
 Although written three decades after the war, it now seems that it was this song that helped us to gain the victory".
