I heard that song on the radio a few weeks ago, actually.  
So not super popular (anymore), but certainly known and acknowledged over here.

What a coincidence: those set pieces in the video look like Tetris’ _tetrominoes_!

I knew it too, there’s the game “piano tiles” that features classical songs, and one of them is Korobeiniki.

Claudio Monteverdi  
from the _Seventh Book of Madrigals_  
“Tirsi e Clori”  
Venice, 1619.

Used in the game [Four Last Things](https://forums.thimbleweedpark.com/t/four-last-things-renaissance-art-and-pythonesque-style/1894).  
Here a clip with a hook to the fifth and most famous _stanza_.
