Today these artists can only be seen at the most traditional concerts and musical evenings. The same cannot be said about Philip Kirkorov, Valery Meladze, singers Natalie and Anita Tsoi, and the groups “Zveri” and “Splin”. These artists are in demand and loved by audiences even today. Their concerts still attract millions of fans. And all this despite the fact that they also have the right to call themselves “old-timers of the stage.”

Nobody in the world knows Soviet and Russian pop musicians. Especially in the West. However, musicians from Russia in different time entered the Western charts.

All attempts to promote and impose our popular music failed. Russian pop music is very secondary and backward - both technologically and stylistically.

But it has already become a good tradition to tell the Russian public lies about the successes of certain performers in the West. It's getting really funny.

Kirkorov traveled to Monte Carlo for The World Music Awards - a show of the best-selling performers in their countries, but it is quite difficult to find a person in Russia who has Kirkorov's album. Pugacheva, as you know, in 1997 took only 15 place out of 25 at the useless Eurovision.

For some reason, Sergei Lazarev sings in English, something the human brain simply cannot handle. Joseph Prigogine, who became an obsession with pushing Valeria to the West, once said in a paid article in a British newspaper that his wife had sold 100 million albums in Russia.

The rapper Timati had the biggest success when the Swiss DJ Antoine remixed Timati's song Welcome to St. Tropez. The song topped the charts all over the world, except for the UK and the US.

2. Boris Grebenshchikov - 1989

His album Radio Silence, released in England and the USA, took 198th place on the Billboard200, despite the fact that it was recorded with the then super-popular group Eurythmics. The video shows BG's performance on David Letterman's popular TV show.

3. Gorky Park-1990

The success of Gorky Park in the USA cannot be exaggerated. They did not conquer America. Just look at their achievements on the charts. On the Billboard Hot 100 they only scored with the single Try To Find Me (81st place and 6 weeks on the chart), and on the Billboard 200 with the album Gorky Park (80th place and 21 weeks on the chart).

But Gorky Park generally sold well - 300 thousand copies sold in America alone is very good result. Much more success the group achieved success in Scandinavia. Gorky Park in Norway reached 9th place, and the single Bang - 5th. In Denmark, the album Moscow Calling It even went platinum.

The girls did not become stars of the first magnitude, and their success was not that long, but they sold about 10 million of their records abroad. This is an unattainable result for Russian performers.

The English-language album now has gold status in four countries and platinum in Europe as a whole, the song “All the Things She Said” occupied the first line of the British chart for several weeks, and a cover of The Smiths was performed in the TV series “Gossip Girl” in 2009.

A group whose songs no one had really heard anywhere became the most famous musical group from Russia recently. Suffice it to say that in the West the Cathedral of Christ the Savior is known as the Pussy Riot Church.

Soon after the arrest of Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Maria Alekhina and Ekaterina Samutsevich, musicians around the world began to carry out actions in their support - ranging from Madonna and Paul McCartney to Mike Patton and The Knife and Die Antwoord.

Thus, 15 of Netrebko’s albums entered the Austrian chart .
