A Russian song for sailors...The video is from the movie 72 Meters, look for it, its worth your time. It can be found on RU-vid between takedowns... ;) or buy a copy on DVD.
The line 'perpetually drunk' has all kinds of connotations is Russian and might be better translated as 'always happy', 'always blissful', etc. Just picture the classic image of a sailor back from the sea and you'll get the idea.
The band Lube (or Lubeh, Lyube, etc) is know for a mixture of several genres, with influences from both Russian folk music, rock, Russian chanson, and Soviet military songs.
The name "Lubeh" has two simultaneous derivations. It is a nickname for the Moscow suburb of Lyubertsy, which is where Rastorguyev, the lead-man lived. It is also a slang word meaning "any" and signifies a diversity of choices or views.
