On this date 36 years ago Виктор Цой, singer, lyricist, co-founder of the band Кино, died in a car accident at the age of 28. If you don’t know his music, google Цой/Tsoi and Кино and you can find most if not all of it. His song Перeмен [we’re waiting for] Changes] became an anthem for perestroika but also was sung during the protests of 2011 when Putin announced he was going to run once again for president after Medvedev, his 2nd in comman (think of Pence) served a 4-year term. Everyone who went to those protests knew the words. Tsoi also sings this song at the end of the film Асса [Assa] but in this video he’s singing in concert. Quite a presence. The chorus is below:
Перемен – требуют наши сердца [our hearts demand changes]
Перемен – требуют наши глаза [our eyes demand change]
в нашем смехе и наших слезах и пульсации вен [in our laughter and tears and the beat of our veins]
перемен – мы ждём перемен! [change – we’re waiting for change!]
