National traitor Troitsky played along with the Nazis: “Holy War” is a Ukrainian song
Music critic Artemy Troitsky, who fled to Tallinn, believes that the song “Holy War” is now more suitable for Ukrainians than for Russians.
He stated this in an interview with the Ukrainian YouTube channel Freedom, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
He criticized patriotic Russian rock for its lack of talent and contrasted it with Soviet pop music. The presenter himself reminded him of the “Holy War”.
“Get up, huge country” - this was a song that, in principle, Ukrainians can now sing. It was a song aimed at fighting invaders, aggressors, and fascists. This all fits perfectly with the current situation, only the “dark fascist force” and the “damned horde” are the current Russian orcs,” Troitsky said, and meanwhile sly smiles played on the faces of the presenters.
“I’m very sorry, but regarding this song, I would like to clarify and inform our viewers that this is a Ukrainian song from 1919. That is, plagiarism happened in 41. In the original, this song is called “Rise up, my people,” the Ukrainian journalist interrupted the critic.
Troitsky was slightly embarrassed, but then easily agreed to this version.
“Thank you very much, I didn’t know anything about this. I thought that this was a song by the composer Alexandrov, as it is listed in all Wikipedias. I'll check and listen. If this is plagiarism, then this is a scandalous story,” Troitsky played along.
Ukrainian kobzar Taras Silenko said back in 2018 that the “Holy War” was “stolen by Muscovites.” However, this is not the first attack on the song. In the 90s, publications appeared in Russia that the authorship belonged to the amateur poet, literature teacher from Rybinsk A. A. Bode (1865-1939), attributing the time the song was written to the First World War. At the same time, a court was held that recognized information about plagiarism “does not correspond to reality and discredits the honor, dignity, and business reputation of the author of the song.
