Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "راسپوتین (ترانه)" in Persian language version.
"Rasputine" by Boney M was hotly debated in the 1970s due to its similarity to the "Katibim," a traditional Istanbul tune, but this similarity was denied by the band. It has been suggested that the song was derived from an old Arab song called "يا عذولي لا تلمني" That was composed by the Arab composer Othman Almosoully.
