Formerly known as the Red Army Choir. They were an excellent group of male Russian singers. Sadly the original ensemble met an unfortunate end in a plane crash in 2016 (before falling out of windows became the latest Russian fashion) 1 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

bugarup Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 Vysotsky was what old people listened to, and I never understood hype around Kino, Nautilus Pompilius from that scene was so much better IMO. Aaaaanyway, here is my favorite Russian-singing male, who is actually Ukrainian with Roma roots.
majestic Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) The best Russian music was posted by @Chilloutman in the joke thread a while back. They even have English subtitles. Ah, my Putin... what a glorious composition. Didn't age so well though, in light of last year's events. Edit: Clearly, the best male Russian singer is a German pretending to be Russian: Edited March 22, 2023 by majestic No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

Gorth Posted April 11, 2023 Posted April 11, 2023 Before the war special military operation in Ukraine, when doing concerts in Russia was still a cool thing to do...

Gorth Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 A slightly older Rammstein piece. As usual, the band never gives any "official" interpretation of their songs, but there seems to be a fan consensus, that it's about the building of the Berlin wall (Rammstein are from the former DDR). It has English subtitles if clicking the subtitle button 1 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Gorth Posted April 28, 2023 Posted April 28, 2023 Something close to an 80's "Cold War Anthem'... a bit of German pop music. She modified the ending a bit here, as against all odds, the world didn't go out in the expected global firestorm (followed by a few centuries of nuclear winter) “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Bartimaeus Posted May 3, 2023 Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) i don't know what she's singing most of the time, but it is provocative also, some very interesting acoustic setup they have going on throughout this video Edited May 3, 2023 by Bartimaeus Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.
Gorth Posted May 4, 2023 Posted May 4, 2023 This one has English subtitles (if selected on the video)... Edit: Rather than double post.... “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.
