Putin: a softie

"The fire is pulsing in a cramped stove/ The resin on the firewood is like a
tear/ And in a dugout an accordion is singing/ About your smile and your eyes,"
Putin sang, showing a surprisingly soft and melodious voice.


He went on to sing the Paul Simon number "Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes" and "Near Wild Heaven" from REM's 1991 Out of Time.
