Lazarev: It has always been a reference Madonna

With 27 Sergey about progress in this age can only dream about: a rich, famous and revered female fans, who did not believe in his love affair with Lera Kudryavtseva. But the title of the best Russian singer confirmed numerous music competitions, Lazarus is not enough. Singers and actors in full builds Napoleon's plans for world conquest. - Recently, the regular Euro Vision, Russia has returned to him you were not ... - I have no plans, no dreams, no such point - put Russia on the competition - says the "interlocutor" Sergey. - But you're fighting for the right to travel. And accounting, in his winning year. - I took part in internal competitions once. I have a lot to make a game for this competition, I wrongly influenced and agreed. It is not the intention to be repeated. The worst thing in the five years of his solo career, I say, I do not need the euro vision, I think this competition is not very good, but people still stubbornly believe that I dreamed about it. My goal - international career. Euro vision is, I think, in this big obstacle. The winning project not you get a bonus, and puts a stamp sredneprobnogo Festival. Practice confirms: no not yet Dima Alexander Rybak international by winning Euro Vision Stars. My goal - international career - you say that your eternal competition with accounting for the best young artist came with a third party? On "Muz-TV", an award on 11 June, you were back in the same category. - As it happens, we have an artist in the same year. In 2002, and Bill and I (still in the group Smash) have appeared on the "New Wave" in Jurmala, and since it is a comparison. Then Dima little one in the background, he was cautiously began. A group Smash fired. Then our group broke up, and Dima, on the other hand took. I was beginning to do a solo career, and now we have the stage, which were two equally strong performer achieved. I do not know many young musicians about the sound of nature, as we soared into the air. Dima and his producer Yana Rudkovskaya not save money on high quality materials, public relations moves, try out our swamp Showbiz something approximate to western standards ... - And why not PR? - I have always emphasized the music, not the scandals. Even without me there, especially to think of something I do not. I do not, and then justify these stories will. - You have released the video for alarm. Pure dance, in the spirit of minimalism from. Saved? - This is the world the tendency to make the video, are now inclined towards minimalism. But never thought minimalist equity. I have a high standard, I can not afford to make bad quality video. Although the clips are now less important. In our country, do not rotate a plurality of channels, the music. And those who have, there are 60 percent of series and programs. There is very little music and artists, more and more ... Why did I video premiere on the Internet? It is now even more - all on the web. If people in Russia today will remove the clip for 150 thousand dollars, colleagues probably twirling his finger to his temple: it is not worth it. The same thing - in the global industry. Few shoots expensive clips. When shoots, video advertising stuff, all kinds of goods. The same Lady Gaga eats a few sandwiches in the clip, then drink proplachennymi drinks. We have overwritten channels such as advertising. So people are trying to find passages: Production clips now operate virtually yourself. - As sales of CDs. Quite pinch your brother. - Without irony - is a type of injury. There is apathy of confusion: what's next? Legal sales in Russia. It's not even played portal albums would sell high. Everywhere in the world there is iTunes, where you. Easy and inexpensive legally downloadable movies and music Go to people are used to, they do not even think to buy a pirate. I was in complete shock when just two days after my last album, Electric Touch, he appeared on the Web. People openly invites others to download it for free. - That you regret. Steal more lectures. - Shocking that such a mentality. People are not used to pay for the pleasure. Of course this should be decided at the level of legislation, tougher penalties. Otherwise, all work will be flying into hell. Every song is worth several thousand dollars. It is unfair that the album is free to download. Artists need to earn their livelihood. - This spring, you have signed a contract with Sony Music. Do not high? Case will hurt. - International career loomed before me always. Risk that starts at zero, there is. But if it does not at this time I'll try it again. Potential, the ability and the desire I have. And if you knock on the door a long time, it will sooner or later succumb to the zeal and opens. I understand that not all happen at once. And the situation in the global music market is not very good. Few artists, in which companies are willing to invest. This third English album, I took her money. A Sony Music - from the company that represents it as their branches abroad. Of course I was on the management of their high expectations. - You're not the one trying to break - no one has failed. - Progress made, not only on a large scale. Nobody believes parade just because we do not accept with Britney Spears. But 11 Place in the dance chart single, Everytime we promoutirovali in England - a Russian artist is a real achievement. Do not let it resulted in international tours, but also such a success of the Russian almost nobody wanted. No need to measure all these quantities as Beyonce, Sting. We also have a Alla Pugacheva. But other popular singers - Valeria, Lolita do many wonderful things. - I've heard that you can also move to the U.S. for himself is not excluded. - I want to work there. I like the structure of their show business. We have an artist - a clown, a man who may be invited to his birthday - and he will sing, dance, you name it, because he had been paid. This is generally not considered a profession. That too complicated - podrygat down on stage? Here is a loader, Showroom - a job with severe physical exertion. In the West, the artist, the other setting. There are no more role models, respect for them. People understand that the music - it's a business, and do everything possible to make it at the highest level. In Russia, the leaders of the radio stations often silly money, do not try to develop the taste of the audience. Most of the music with a flavor twist jail, bawdy songs. It will even move quietly into a stage. Chanson already everywhere. Pop artists get more popular, sing begin chanson artists. Therefore, when the opportunity to go to work in the U.S., happy to agree. This does not mean that I achieved all in Russia. Just the way I have chosen language, musical direction - it is clearer than here. I'm struggling with this for five years. If before in Russia only in English Alsou sang, "Tattoo", and Lazarus, now sing, and other artists. Shipwreck is happening, but slowly. - Lera Kudryavtseva, if they try it again, kind of advertising accuse your relationship, she said: "Lazarus - a real man." It's hard to stay in show business, this normal? It's like politics, is a ball to people quickly lose their value. - To be honest, very hard. A lot of pressure from the outside. Once you get to the popularity, famous people admit quietly that you. Their circle And this circle - snakes, gossip ... On one side you have to be - there is a certain status. On the other - I've always separated. I do not need friends with someone special, be to achieve something. I like people - talk, not like it - do not communicate with each other. I do not answer to anyone but us ourselves. Me no manufacturer dictate who know how I behave, what songs to sing. I know nothing about the opinion of critics, who supposedly care about the music familiar. I usually do not care what anyone says. This belief in their own right came to me less than six months ago. Only I know how I should be. I like it - and others like it. A narrow or a wide range of - another question. Much worse if my stuff will be like the masses, and I will get sick. I respect that to stop me. - You meet a lot of these independent artists? - Very little. I know that many of them annoying. Particularly those. Something with a stick You only hate me: why is it Lazarev do what he wants, but still so complex - singing in English? Therefore bales often. Free to most of those who became popular in the Soviet era. Another thing is that very few of the greatest artists are trying to do something new, do not forget about the good young audience. It has always been a reference Madonna. You can talk about their meager vocal, but the woman in 50 years by the youth. Whilst the old public not turn away. This is an example of how you can and should the time how important not to stop the artist a chip, once you feel trapped. - She grew up in a simple, single-parent family. Where did this sense of taste? - I, like many, grew up in the "Ivan", "Hands Up" - all the albums I had. But Western music interests me. Then, when I met in 12 years, with Vlad Topalov, we started in the "fidgets" to sing foreign songs. Papa Vlad played a major role in the development of our tastes, always encouraged not to focus on pop music. In 17 years, we have written to the International Studio - it's all over. I am sure that if there is no "neposedovskoy" history peretekshey in Smash, there is increasing daily strip in communication with Western manufacturers, there is no taste. Me with this taste, to be honest, it's hard. In Russia it is not to be understood, and I could not otherwise. Therefore strive, where I talk to people in the same language. Every time I meet with renowned producers who understand for Kylie Minogue, Cher, Enrique Iglesias, that it is the guru who wrote music to create the world. In Russia, a few people who want to learn something. That's why I will go. I do not want to degrade. I do not fit the reality. I do not want to download music, the concerts write to the first or second channels podformatna. Not invited - not. - I'll come back to your family. They keep a close relationship with his mother, although it is unusual for men, they tend to immediately gone ... - I want to brag, but I'm going to do for the whole family. Features on and off. I bought my mother a car, it was easy. We talk on the phone every day. We have a happy family, we often gather at the hut. There is none that Lazarus - the gods, in the distance. While many relatives News learned from the Internet. (Laughs) You always have a list of questions I need to ask for a meeting. But they respect me for what I've achieved. You understand where I started. An example. Mother used to attend concerts as Philip Kirkorov fan, she liked him. Now Kirkorov comes to me for my birthday, for a presentation - and she speaks to him like a friend, a colleague of his son. You know what has been done, these people respect me. I do not fall from the sky for me, nobody asked. It gives me what I take. - Mom shares your desire to leave? - We have debated this very topic. She is looking forward to my success, but is afraid of losing in an effort to something trendy I do something that was so long. But the risk is necessary. For me, the biggest indicator was the reaction of 6-year-old niece. She is a fan of my hard drive, sings with his most difficult, my favorite song. This composition is strange for a Russian ear, but it was her girl goes and sings. So that the younger generation have understood.
