Слухайце, Народы - Listen, Peoples (Soviet Belarusian Song)

A Soviet Belarusian song about Nikita Khrushchev, a rarity due to Khrushchev’s insistence on opposing cults of personality in an attempt to distance himself from Stalin. Despite this, pieces such as this song and the poster included in the video did pop up here and there during Khrushchev’s leadership. Performer: Belarusian State Folk Song and Dance Ensemble (Беларускі Дзяржаўны народны ансамбль Песні і Танца) Year recorded: 1961 Composer: Maryan Nosko (Мар’ян Наско) Lyricist: Anton Belevich (Антон Бялевіч) Source: Image: Soviet poster “Our goals are clear, our tasks are defined. To work, comrades!“ (Наши цели ясны, задачи определены. За работу, товарищи!), Boris Belopol’skii (Борис Белопольский), 1962.
