I've only been working on Russian for about a year now, mainly by listening to Russian music. I love the band t.A.T.u, and I learned much of my pronunciation from listening to them.

Here are the lyrics I'm singing from t.A.T.u's Нас не догонят (Nas Ne Dagoniat):

Только скажи,
Дальше нас двое.
Только огни
Аэродрома.
Мы убежим,
Нас не догонят.
Дальше от них,
Дальше от дома.
Ночь-проводник
Спрячь наши тени
За облака.
За облаками
Нас не найдут,
Нас не изменят.
Им не достать
Звезды руками.

Небо уронит
Ночь на ладони.
Нас не догонят,
Нас не догонят.
Небо уронит
Ночь на ладони.
Нас не догонят,
Нас не догонят.

  • Ночь. ПрOводник..

    Unstressed "o" should sound like "a"

    Спрячь наши тени -

    "ря" should sound together, not like"рья"

    тени - "и" never sounds like "e"

    нас не найдут, нас не изменят

    You pronounce "нe" a bit like "нэ" "E" usually make consonants very soft

    не достать - "ть" should be softer

    "ночь на ладони" sounds like "на ладонье"

  • It sounds like someone from the Baltic is trying to speak russian.

  • i love t.A.T.u too

  • Ведь мы, когда с акцентом говорим, тоже как лохи выглядим))))

  • Wow :) U'r amazing, I love ur accent, my russian heart is touched ). darkjudas1's explained some of your mistakes there.

    One of the most common is the last one with "ночь на ладони". English-speakers tend to say "нье", but the actual sound should be "ни" [ni] which should be pronunced like in word insom[ni]a.

  • работать и работать!
