  • I don't understand Russian, but i don't have to to understand the beauty of this song.

    I am glad i found it. Every American whom is familiar with Mary Hopkins's version should see and hear this. It's a view into the Russian soul in less than 4 minutes.

  • Beautiful!  Simply beautiful!!!!

see all

  • По-моему лучший концерт Баскова. (2001 год - Кремль "Шедевры ушедшего века")

    Потом скатился в попсу, голос тоже испортил и сам...

    Обидно. Талант был большой. А вот им правильно распорядиться оказалось ему не под силу.

  • Не могу насмотреться! Это мой любимый концерт!

    Вариант ХОРОШЕГО исполнения. Хоть и не аутентичного.:-)

  • Господа, у вас вкус есть? Смесь исконно цыганской музыки с каким-то недотехно, псевдооперной манеры пения с народной? Послушайте кого-то достойного Погудина, например.

  • One of my best russian songs!Greetings from Serbia for our Russian brothers!

  • best wishes from Palestine to all russian people

  • The song being sung here is NOT "those were the days" it's Дорогой длинною ("Dorogoy dlinnoyu"), it was written by Boris Fomin (1900-1948) with words by the poet Konstantin Podrevskii.

    THis song has only the melody in common the lyrics for "Days..." was written by Gene Raskin

  • Arguably, one of the most internationally popular songs in the world, this song in Russian is superb:

    ехали на тройке с бубенцами,

    А вдали мелькали огоньки...

    Эх, когда бы мне теперь за вами,

    Душу бы развеять от тоски!

    It is also popular in Brazil and many other countries.
