Last week we told you about Hugo Chavez‘s record-breaking 8-hour blab fest which featured the Venezuelan leader offering his audience a few songs. It seems that Huguito’s love for song goes a bit further than his spontaneous karaoke moment: he’s putting out a CD of his favorites tunes, sung by him.

“The CD was recorded by Teresita Maniglia, presidential press chief,” revealed Chavez, laughing, on his Sunday radio and TV program Aló Presidente. “Timeless songs…You all will hear this and laugh!,” said the leader…

On the cover of the CD there is a closeup of Chávez’s face, smiling, microphone is hand, dressed in his characteristic red shirt and llanero hat. The leader and defender of socialism of the 21st century didn’t give details about what songs would appear on the CD, nor did he mention if it would be sold or available free to the public.

Chávez tends to sing in nearly all of his speeches, mostly traditional Venezuelan songs and some Mexican rancheras.

God help us all.
