This is probably ridiculously obvious, but I'm kind of slow.
Most (if not all, I'm still looking) of Ledi-Disko's first album's songs are Lithuanian covers of songs sung by Наталья Гулькина, with some coming from the band Мираж and others Звёзды. I'm probably going to take some time to translate all of the songs that I can, since it'd be good practice for me (and also I have a few friends into Ledi-Disko, so it's like some game of translation telephone while trying to explain what the song's about).
Ledi also has covers on her second album, which I'll be searching for as well. However, these will be more difficult because the two (or so) that I know are not sung by Наталья.
I'll probably write a list down somewhere, of the songs that I've found + the ones I've translated (all with links!). Ledi-Disko is probably my favourite artist of all time, and since there's not much information on her, this is my way of finding out as much as I can.
It'd be great to have some kind of translation team for this kind of stuff, but I'm not really sure how I'd put that all together - I can only translate French, Russian, and English, and transcribing any language other than English is just out of the question for me. I can't do it. I just think it'd be fun to have a couple people I share a hobby with.
Lately I've been gathering information on bands from various sites (typically the text is either Russian or translated into such) and translating it all into English to share with my friends. Maybe I'll start posting that kind of stuff on here, too. I have a personal Neocities that I host my translations on, though...
