Today's selection of songs is sure to cheer you up! And most likely - it will make you a little nostalgic for the days of your former youth... And that, as we think, is great! We've decided to take a look back at some of the most popular greatest hits pop late 1980s and, maybe just a little bit, the very early 1990s years! These songs have passed their fifth decade, but they never cease to touch the hearts of even the modern generation - melodic rhythms and beautiful lyrics about love (most of them) can't leave anyone indifferent. Enjoy listening to them!
"Apples in the snow."
Song "Apples in the snow." has become a trademark Mikhail Muromov. This touching composition conquered the hearts of music lovers, because it touched the most secret corners of the soul... There was something in it melancholywhich made me feel a little sad. But it wasn't depressing. It was very beautiful... And remains so to this day. For a long time listeners wondered what this song was about. Many were sure that it was part of a cycle of songs about Afghanistan. But Mikhail Vladimirovich dispelled this legend:
"No, this song has nothing to do with Afghanistan, so it's just a legend. In fact - I'm not entirely sure it has any meaning myself. It's just a song. Everyone interprets it in their own way..."
In response to the question, likes if he had apples, Muromov replied:
"Of course! I grew up on apples. White and Antonovka apples are my favourite! I had to buy them at the market, as we had no apple trees of our own. My mother begged my father for a long time to buy a cottage, but he didn't want to. And only when I became famous did he fulfil her dream. Mum managed to harvest four crops...".
"Horses in apples."
Another song on our list is also related with apples! I wonder why this particular fruit was so exciting to 80's performers? What was the romanticisation of apples? But, actually, songs about apples had resounding success! And the spotted horse chanteuse. Viktor Saltykov - is clear proof of that!
The song was a smash hit, largely because he performed it. Saltykov. His distinctive voice broke women's hearts and made the audience fall in love with this artiste, for to throw away this unlikeable . vocal out of my head was just impossibly…
"You don't marry him."
And another very loud an '80s hit performed by Saltykov was the composition "Don't Marry Him".

"On the white blanket of January."
Sergey Vasyuta and group "Sweet Dream." performed this masterpiece hit, and instantly became a long-lasting success! The composition "On the white blanket of January" is relevant even nowadays, and at that time it created a real furore....

It is known that the rights to the song have long belonged to Vasyuta, despite the fact that the author of the lyrics and arrangement is the Oleg Khromov from Sweet Dreams. There were a lot of conflicts about it, but the listeners certainly didn't care. Everyone just enjoyed the song!
"Brother Louie."
"Brother Louie" - a well-known hit by the German duo Modern Talking! Dieter Bolen dedicated it to the "unofficial" third party of the band, the sound engineer Luis Rodriguez. The song achieved great success in the charts, winning gold and platinum in different countries! And inspired the Russian singer Sergei Minaev on your own version of...
Minaev's version is included in the tape album "Collage." and was very popular with domestic listeners.
"White Night."
Even though we have enough on our list Saltykovabut what can you do when almost all of his songs 80-х were the hit songs of their era? "White Night" was no exception.....
Perhaps the most popular is "White Night". ahead of the aforementioned hits. It continues to attract even today modern audiencesand how many covers of it have been made - it's hardly possible to count.

The composition was written Sergei Kuznetsov in a very inebriated state. The author of such a marvellous lyric said that the song is not about roses, but about people who, like flowers, are easily thrown out of their lives. However, most of the listeners realised that and without his input. Curiously, at the time this folk hit was recorded. Yuri Shatunovthe lead singer of the band was only 13 years old…
"American Boy."
We couldn't pass up the famous the hit "American Boy"that came out of every domestic iron! The song was released at the beginning of 1990-х and instantly made the band famous "Combination.". To this day, it remains one of the favourite ....
There was an atmosphere in the air in those years restructuring. These were very troubled times, and many people-especially the youth - romanticised the so-called "the American dream.": society aspired to a higher standard of living like in the States. People were convinced that life in America was a fairy tale! They were inspired by stories and articles, foreign music and stars... And, of course, few people thought about the fact that fairytales nonexistent.
