Vladimir Kuzmin's best songs: list, clips, facts and history - part two
Содержание
Let's keep reminiscing Vladimir Kuzmin's greatest hits - is part two of our top 10! Speaking about Kuzmin - as a musician, he impresses with the melodiousness of his works, as well as virtuoso performance of vocal parts. It's a pleasure to listen to this man, even if sometimes his songs are unpretentious and simple in terms of lyrical content.
So: in the previous part of our selection we had time to remember such marvellous compositions as "Soul.", "Two Stars." - wonderful collab with Alla Pugacheva, and some other hits. And here is our selection for today... Enjoy listening!
Seven Seas
We decided to start with a rather rhythmic and romantic song called "Seven Seas.". This composition has a very beautiful melody, but Kuzmin's vocal parts should not be underestimated: they perfectly complement the music, and together this harmony creates a true hit....
As for the lyrical content, the song states of love and hopethe feelings that are so essential to every human being:
"Life flies and waits for no one.
If I'm awake, I'm flying,
If I'm flying, I'm awake.
If I live, I love..."
You're so innocent.
This composition is full of bright and beautiful images... The text is very beautiful: it draws out in the listener's mind interesting characters - the main characters of the composition. Apparently, the woman to whom such lines are addressed as "you're so beautiful and so powerless, a little bit false, a little bit flattering." - a charming and charismatic person. We can judge from the lyrics that she could have a big and bright future. But...
...But she fell in love and devoted her life to a man (the protagonist) who calls himself a "rogue.". He admits that he is not a prince, but he also ends his narrative with the following lines:
"You were so unhappy with me,
But so loved and so beautiful..."
Thresholds
One of Kuzmin's most famous and favourite songs, which almost everyone can sing without any problems!
"rapids, rapids, steep rapids.
There's no smooth road by the raging river
And the exuberant heart, forgetting its anxiety.
Cutting the wave, running from longing..."
This composition is often included in various selections when it comes to of Vladimir's finest masterpieces. As the years have passed, it has lost none of its relevance among listeners ....
Ball
The same can safely be said for "Ball."! One of Kuzmin's masterpieces, which has won warm recognition from the general public. Memorable melody, beautiful performance and interesting lyrical stuffing. This song has everything that the heart of a music lover requires....
Despite the unpretentious title, the lyrics of this song are steeped in lyricism and depth:
"I don't quarrel with fate,
There are more difficult tasks at the moment.
I'd have to deal with myself,
And then I'll think about her..."
Kuzmin's calling card the soulfulness of his songs. He himself once said the following about this phenomenon of his:
"Well, it's simple really: I write all my songs from the heart. Of course, sometimes I try to adjust to the tastes of the public. But it's very rare. I don't think it should be abused. Because time will pass and they will turn into nothing. But soulful songs, sincere songs, people will like them for many years... These songs are not subject to trends!"
Simone
One of Kuzmin's main hits! This song has long been a favourite among fans, and a calling card of the performer himself. The history of its appearance is quite interesting: in Riga Vladimir met a girl who introduced herself as Simone. That's how the musician actually got inspired.....
"Then I thought, 'Wow, what a beautiful name...'"
In his interview, Kuzmin recalled how, during the recording session, the studio was visited by an Alla Pugacheva. Hearing "Simone," the diva said:
"It's a real hit!"
In fact, it was: soon after "Simone" went to the people, it became insanely popular: at one time it was heard from almost every iron!
Hood
Another gorgeous hit on our list! Many listeners are very fond of this song, as well as of performer.
In his interview, Vladimir recounted:
"This is one of those songs that came from the soul. There's nothing contrived here. It's just a sincere and soulful song like this. In general, it's been so many years and I still like it a lot! And it's very pleasant when people ask to perform it at concerts - it means that I'm not the only one who likes it!".
Kikimora
Great track with a rather unusual title. Only it already attracts attention to the song. Very beautiful, mysterious lyrics, and a melody that will settle in your head for a long time - no wonder that many music lovers like this song so much!
"Once lured into the net,
It will sow evil in the soul,
To those who met her,
Everyone, like me, is out of luck..."
And three more wonderful (in our opinion) compositions by Kuzmin lastly! We're sure: you've definitely heard them before, and maybe one of them is your personal favourite....
Sportlotto
White wild horses
Mum, I'm in trouble
