Here I am, guitar in hand
Let me play you my song
Here's my young stallion
Jump on, come along, come along

Won't you let me play
Won't you hear my song
My stallion is young and strong
Jump on, come along, come along

My guitar in my hands
I'll play you my stranger's song
We'll ride my black stallion
Jump on, come along, come along

Dorug daiyim (My bay 3 years old foal)

My bay 3 years old foal is a good horse
Can you tame him?
I learned to play good on my doshpuluur
Can you play masterly on strings?

My light-bay ambler is a good horse
Can you catch him?
I learned to play good on my chadagan
Can you play masterly on strings

Looking at the rating distribution you are apparently not alone. Perhaps you all should get on down to the local liquor store and get a fifth , strip down to your skives, and dance like no one is looking.  
Do you want a station where you never hear Tuva throat singing?  I hope not.  But there are lots of streaming stations like that. 
At least the second time I heard this... because it was already rated a 1 by me when I got here.
This sucks. Ouch.
sounds like it would work with a strong beer buzzz on

what's not to like?
What the actual hell?
Jimi Hendrix Gypsy Eyes then Yat-Kha Come Along.  Tuva throat singing and Hendrix - nowhere else would that be a perfect and unsurprising combination
LLRP
I'm hearing Allen Ginsberg from The Clash's Ghetto Defendant 
Tuva! Try it (throat singing) in the shower! 
Check out Genghis Blues.

I do too!  It's that throat stuff again - interesting, and a nice driving rhythm too.
Weird. Kind of gruesome. 😱
Bad Russia. Syko Putin.
interesting..
Very odd!! But, good!! The more I hear it, the more I like it!!   Thanx RP
I remember when I was a kid and I made that noise by yelling into a fan.  

It was funny when I was 8.
Whhhooaaa yeaaa!!!
I LIKE IT!!  I don't care what anybody says!!

There needs to be a "oh my god what is this!?, I love it" rating

WELCOME!
This song totally rocks, open your ears everyone and let it in.

This is so weird that I like it.
I can't stand Cookie Monster vocals when I hear them in English, hearing them in another language doesn't make them any more enjoyable.
While I disagree, I can certainly appreciate why some people would hate this. 
While I really dislike this I am rating it a 3 not a 1 because I am so happy @BillG and @RebeccaG are exploring death metal. Awesome new dimension to RP!
Started as a 3 for me.. I bumped it to a 4...
Wow, that rating graph is insane.  It gets an 8 just for that alone.
this is crazy sh..

it be funky
Thanks to Richard Feynman for bringing Tuva to the wider culture.

This is why belching while trying to carry a tune never quite took off. 

This song could (and will) fall into the abyss of crap tunes and never be missed.
I've a friend having a throat abscess drained today. 

He sounds better than this. 
There's some tough competition on RP, but this song gets my nod for "most eclectic".
Dig it. Rock and roll throat singing!  Don't hear that every day.
Well that was a thing. I'll give it a 6 and see where it goes from there.

Me too!  That having been said, it's a 1 for me.
This tune always makes me smile. I don't know why so many "1" ratings!
Well, isn't that just special.

The Grateful Dead palate cleanser.
5.3? c'mon ... is the RP audience so jaded they can't accept something that really isn't all that radical?
just utterly awesome.

"I yam what I yam, well blooooow me down!"
Horrid. But funny.
That damn album cover made me think there was a hair on my screen
10 times better than Derek Trucks Band...  :P
Certainly interesting in a new-to-me sense.  The throat singing portions feel like they ought to be sinister, expressing things that ought to be shocking, but they just aren't.  Maybe another of their songs are better matched to the technique?  
the blistering guitar of Bombino would go well here

I did too, just to screw the curve.
Whoa.

Some singers have to sing, "I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo...," to prove their point, but then there's this guy. who just, well, just listen!

This is Laibach, no?
I truly enjoy this one. Have RP on all day and sometimes there are songs that just jump out and I have to crank it up. This is one of them.
Like!

Priceless? 

Well, yes, it is.

There's no price, however low, I'd consider paying for it.
Yello meets Genghis Khan.
Good for horse riding...I guess

I rather think that posts such as this reflect badly on the poster.
XD!   nice,   I wish they would throw tracks like this in the mix on the days  when they are on their sad cowboy music kick.

Of course there is one. Usually on the front of your computer.
Keep playing this as the comments are the best.

i got Jimi H's Gypsy Eyes.....thank God for PSD

 
Funny. I can hear similarities between these two tracks. I love both and bet Jimi would have loved Yat-Kha.
That's Tom Waits on vocals after drinking too many cans of Red Bull - am I right?
Welcome, ungrateful bastards - ENJOY !

So now we have your opinion plus your dispensable advice on how to run a successful radio station, fine.
What can I add but:  I routinely recommend RP and typically get positive comments, especially because songs like this reflect greatly on the bandwidth of the station in my opinion. 
Definitely an interesting song to hear once or twice, but please, please stop playing this song.  It is the worst on RP.  Every time it comes on in my office I have to run to turn it off.  When I cannot make it to my computer to change it people invariably ask what the hell are we listening to.  I routinely recommend RP and typically get positive comments, this song reflects badly on the quality of the station in my opinion.

It seems you can love it or hate it... I love it ! - 9
This is amazing!!
As BillG sometimes says, "And now for something completely different."
I  remember seeing Yat-Kha in Beijing in 2003 or later, Kuvezin has an amazing and powerful voice.

If you like Mathias Duplessy, who has his own way of exploring Mongoilan music and throat singing, mixing different influences, try Kuvezin’s first band Huun-Huur.
HUUN HUUR TU | Tuvan Throat Singers

They are still touring, you can find some informations on their tour on their website, here is a link to a performance at Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California November 18, 2008

What a totally cool adventure into the weird and unusual!
Metal guitar riffs and throat singing, and tastefully produced. 

Yeah, it's a pretty cool groove.  It's also one of the only songs I've seen here that doesn't have a 'sounds-like/rip-off-of-Pink Floyd' comment, which is also a bonus.
Thought I caught the whiff of some Zappa influence on this one
Oh. My. God.  
I'll be happy to never hear this song again for the rest of my life.

Amen.  Just noticed I rated this one of my rare 'sucko-barfo".  And well-deserved it is.
Please do not stop playing this song. I love Tuvan throat singing and love that these guys are keeping it alive. For anybody who doesn't care for any songs on the RP playlist: PSD.

Please stop playing this song.  I play your station in my office and I love how eclectic RP is but I literally have to run and turn the music off when this song comes on.
yuck




                                 Somebody here said - "After Popeye became a Buddist monk."  - Lol !






The back-up singing sounds like "Taz" the Warner Brothers cartoon Tasmanian Devil character.
Mongolian¹ throat singing is an argument against 'cultural appropriation'.

Unless 'cultural appropriation' involves taking it out back and braining it with an axe.

Sounds to me more like Popeye AND Bluto became a throat-singing duet. But yeah, for sure!
Tom Waits tries rapping to a Gregorian chant?  Wait, there might be some Bollywood influences, too.  Whatever, this is pretty good!
Seriously?

Definitely could be a Yoko side project... sounds at least as good.

YIKES!

 
I absolutely LOVE this song! The words crack me up but it's all I can do not to bounce myself off my chair while I'm working.
I play this in my office and find myself apologizing to people listening when this song is on.  I tell them this station is usually incredible.  Any chance it can be removed from the rotation, it's rating is so low.
