Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin caused jaws to drop last year when he gave an impromptu performance of the Fats Domino classic Blueberry Hill at a charity concert. Now one of the country's best known DJs has remixed Putin's vocals into a six-minute dance track that he says is wowing clubbers around the country, even if he admits that Putin is "not a singer." <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jul/putin.jpg" border="5" /> "It was so funny seeing the video on the Internet. When I got the track, I mixed it in a day. It was like kind of a joke," said DJ Smash, whose real name is Andrei Shirman. "Now it's very popular, it plays all over the clubs. People smile, everyone knows this track." Last December, Putin revealed a new side when he got on stage at a star-studded charity concert in Saint Petersburg and performed the song in correct, if accented English. He went on to bash out a Soviet-era song on the piano. For his part, DJ Smash says that he is an absolutely non-political person, and the remix is not a demonstration of support for Putin as a politician. u00a0Putin has so far made no comments regarding the track.
