What song is this? Is it Russian?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_pJNMad3Ew

I really like the sound of this song, but I don't speak Russian (that's what I think the language is, anyway) and have no idea what the song is, who it's by, or even what it's about.

Does anyone know the name and who it's by? And if you happen to know the language, what is the song about?

    Yes, it's Russian.

    Чешир = Cheshire (as in Cheshire cat)

    Шляпник = Hatter (as in Mad Hatter)

    Садо-мазо = sadomasochistic

    I don't know all of the words, but it's about Alice in Wonderland. I gather that it's about their mad relationship, they're a bit sadistic and weird. I like the song too. =)

    The title of the video is Cheshire/Hatter Sado-Mazo

    The extra text says

    "Cheshire - the tempter, who can resist that?"

    You probably saw that it has video from the Alice in Wonderland movie with Johnny Depp, and you can see the Cheshire cat & the Mad Hatter.

    The song is in Russian but I have no idea who's performing it. There are a few songs with that title Sado-Mazo, but nothing that is this one. Sado-Mazo is Sadomasochism.

    According to the text at the start of the video, it's " the tale of the IOM" which is the Russian Federation. A political comment. Which kinda makes sense reading Malika's answer.

    Well.... the song is by Cheshire and Shlyapnik (translated to English - Hatman...)

    The song name is "SadoMaso" (from Sadomasochism)

    And i can tell you that the meaning of the song suits its title.... and don't have any sense at all, soory...

    ok, words are:

    The black candle thougt it was spluttering with fire while it was burning down

    U have face of the innocent victim, but also something from the executioner

    CHORUS:

    Such kinda sadomaso

    just sadomaso

    U're all sadomaso

    just sadomaso

    also sadomaso

    The heart sadomaso

    is beating sadomaso

    kinda sadomaso

    wonderful phantom, where are you flying to?

    here am i, your gothic prince

    you look like your dog's friend

    which was raped by the fascist

    Chorus.

    What kinda sky, stars

    Sky, starts,

    Even the heart is beating, beating

    Chorus.

    P.S. Hope it helps even if it doen't have sense...
