"Moya Moskva" («Моя Москва», "My Moscow") is the anthem of the city of Moscow since 1995. The music was composed in 1941 by Isaak Dunayevsky and the lyrics were written by Sergey Agranyan and Mark Lisyansky.
The original performer was Zoya Rozhdestvenskaya. (She was the one who sang on the first recording of the song.)
The original lyrics had four verses, of which the last pertained to Joseph Stalin. They were replaced by the current lyrics which were introduced during the Leonid Brezhnev era.
