Song of the Week
This week's song is Танцевать с тобой by the group Атлантис! I don't have much to say as it's been a long day, but I hope you enjoy this song as much as I do :)

Obligatory non-SOTW post
I feel like I haven't been as active as I wish on here.
However, I don't usually have much to say? While I need to add more music to the channel's queue, translation has been taking over my life for the most part (That, and with Covid restrictions relaxing in my area, I've been going outside more). I am thinking that maybe when I have time I'll start posting translated information about certain artists here as well, considering that this is a blog dedicated to stuff like that. I just get a little nervous.
If you find information on any artist that's in Russian and you want it in English, you're free to contact me (through Discogs is best) and I'll see what I can do. While things like that will generally take priority, I only really translate when I feel like it, and even then I'll still generally do things in an order of want rather than need.
I have a handful of translated band information I could probably queue up on the blog, but I'd rather have some kind of extensive 'backlog' so that if I ever feel lazy I can take it easy. This is the same reason I keep things scheduled on the YouTube channel, actually - for me, it's better to do things all at once rather than one at a time. The queue runs out this month, so I'll have to put some stuff together sometime soon.
I don't really think people read the blog, but whoever does has been having an alright time recently. I get to see my grandmother tomorrow so I'm really excited about it :)

Song of the Week
This week's song is Гороскоп by Пламя! Despite the name literally being "Horoscope", I managed to be completely blindsided by this song being about astrology. Nonetheless, it's very cute :)

Song of the Week
This week's song is Esperanza by Los Machucamos! The Georgian group Orera has also covered this, which you can find here. It appears that whoever transcribed the lyrics made a small error, but I was able to cobble together an understandable translation using my 3 years of middle school Spanish.

Song of the Week
This week's song is Мексико, sung by the group Гая! The Discogs page for the LP this is from says that it's in Spanish and Russian, but the only words I can actually pick out in Spanish are "Mexico" and "Sombrero", so unless my listening skills for that language have fallen off the radar, that might be wrong.

Song of the Week
So, I may be just a bit late.
You can find an English translation of the lyrics here.
This week's song is Яблоки на снегу, sung by Михаил Муромов! I won't get into detail, but this song was a huge deal for me when I was in sophomore year, which was only really a couple of years ago. Listening to it still kind of reminds me of that whole period, which I'm still trying to decide on if that's a good or bad thing...
You can find an English translation of the lyrics here.
