[jeymy46]

Algun amigo desde Rusia por favor me podria comentar en español, a que se refiere esta cancion.

Muchas gracias Sergio Alejandro Welsh desde Argentina.

[HHHPPP8]

@jeymy46

En la canción es cantado sobre el saltamontes, que tenía amistad con las moscas, pero ha llegado aquí la rana y lo ha comido. Aunque la canción tiene la trama triste, es cantada a menudo con el humor.

[Olimpus59]

@HHHPPP8 Muchas gracias :-)

[Fetcha200]

1:44 OH NO THEY ARE BEGINNING TO EAT THE GRASSHOPPER!

They are not depressed, just they were supposed to be serious on TV, we were ordinary children that time, just had some pressure from teaches.

[vaddasmuddi]

I love this song, it brings up emotions that i never thought i had haha

[helalumo]

A los 7 años me regalaron un libro de cuentos ruso. Desde ese momento quedé prendado con la cultura Rusa. Añoro algún día conocer personalmente ese bello país. Incluso aprendí a leer el Cyrilico. En fin.. en los 80's me enojó un poco que el Soviet haya desaparecido..

[brunitofa]

[OliverBeerUK]

Could anyone give any contextual information on this? Where it was filmed, by whom, for what?

It would be interesting to know where the singers are, now that they've grown up. I wonder if they're still singing...

[Kbabykgirlk]

I know how to play this song almost on every instrument and only thats song)))

[cutiemulf]

I don't understand a single word but i love it!

[ExplodingCarebear]

Russian children's choirs were always so beautiful. American children can't sing for shit. Also look like idiots x( I agree, I'm glad they don't smile. They have an air of maturity around them.

As for the grasshopper song, I always thought it was so depressing, ever since I was a child xD but it's beautiful. Why don't children sing like this anymore!?!? i wasn't even aware this was a song outside of Neznayka

[PrincessMe1993]

well im from England and im in a childrens choir and we sing with maturity (:. it depends on the discipline, our teacher is rather strict so even the younger ones dont mess about

[kJmS19]

MAGNIFICENT!!!

[Rummelbacken]

Childrens music from the Soviet-era is very cute and nice :) You do not have to speak Russian to enjoy this, you still hear it is good :)

[scriabinetude]

I love how the kids don't smile. In my country kids are supposed to have these saccharin smiles pasted on their faces all the time.

[Golod88]

I grew up with my mother singing it to me before i fell asleep. Brings nice memories back....

[computer1900]

Does anybody know where I can get the music score for this song?

[meisterrarro]

Много волим ову песмичицу, а и деца дивно певају.

[nkvd1934]

what's the russian name of that song?

my russian teacher made us sing on that song...no title though

[mymikasa]

песенка кузнечика :)

why you decided to learn this hard language?

[nkvd1934]

i love russia. everything about it.history, music, artists, language, hockey rivallity. I,m from canada and we are almost the same.

i forgot a lot from my classes because i cannot practice here...and no my family has no russian ancestor or any relation

[mymikasa]

oh, I see. I feel the same about Brasil. I adore music, people, country, capoeira... If I see brasilian flag somewhere I feel myself more happy than when I see russian things))

если хочешь, можно попрактиковаться в русском :)

[Butterz771]

I thought i had written this comment!!!! your views are exacly the same as mine :)

WE LOVE RUSSIA!! :D

[Butterz771]

And... Remember... Canada used to be part of Russia :)

[nkvd1934]

[Butterz771]

[clasesdepiano]

¡¡¡¡No se puede creer ese final barroco con trompetas!!!! ¿¿¿alguien me puede traducir la letra, por favor????

[yulir1]

la canción es sobre la rana que ha comido un saltamontes:-)

[lightbearer2110]

If i were the soloist, i would thought to myself, "damn, look, i'm in the of everyone's attention.weeeeee!"

[OlgaKov]

А как по мне так таких неизвестных Парамоновов было за кадрами..,- ой! - как много одарённых, но к сожалению, - извините все.., - но мне никогда ненравился Парамонов. Его будущие проявлялось как на промокашке.Воспитание в выживании закладывается с умом. Ненужный оказался?! - Так помимо пение, професий на выбор.

[CocoaMug]

Can someone translate the beginning with the girl introducing? Into english?

[vedlejsi]

She is only saying the name of author of the song, name of the song and the name of the solists

[cheng1LA]

Ребята, давайте будем вегетарианцами!

[XPEHBAMBHOC]

gde oni seychas eti deti, mne interesno? prozjorlivoe brushko...

[QueenOfShemakh]

Солисты-мальчики спились и умерли, остальные живут обычной жизнью...

[XPEHBAMBHOC]

это ради комента, или на самом деле спились? Ежель спились то жаль... хорошие БЫЛИ дети

...

[QueenOfShemakh]

нет, правда, этот вопрос уже обсуждался. Так например солист Серёжа Парамонов (Песенка крокодила Гены и др.) был звездой, а когда у него начал ломаться голос, он стал никому не нужным, он начал сильно писть, и умер в одиночестве.

[pavitomexy]

Как же так он стал пить? В 12-14 лет? Ведь в этом возрасте у мальчиков ломается голос.

[zentaura]

Он умер от сердечного приступа во время сильной пневмонии. Не надо верить бульварным газетам.
