Nobody in the world knows Soviet and Russian pop musicians. Especially in the West. Nevertheless, musicians from Russia at different times fell into the Western charts.
All attempts to promote and impose our popular music on the Western public failed. Russian pop music is very secondary and backward, both technologically and stylistically.
But it has already become a good tradition to hang noodles to the Russian public about the successes of certain performers in the West. It comes down to the ridiculous.
Kirkorov traveled to Monte Carlo for The World Music Awards - a show of the best-selling artists in their countries, while finding a person in Russia who has Kirkorov's album is quite difficult. Pugachev, as you know, in 1997 took only 15 place out of 25 at the useless Eurovision.
Sergey Lazarev sings in English for some reason, the human brain is generally unable to master it. Iosif Prigozhin, whose obsession was to push Valeria to the West, once stated 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 made a remix for Timati's song Welcome to St. Tropez. The song went around the top of the charts in the world, except for the UK and the US. In Switzerland, the song took sixth place at the end of the year. This is the peak for our variety performers lately.
Which of our musicians really achieved high places in the Western (and this, in the musical sense, primarily the USA and Great Britain) charts and is generally more or less known in the West.
1. Composer Aram Khachaturian - 1972
One of the recordings of the music of his ballet "Spartacus" called Spartacus, which Khachaturian made together with the London Symphony Orchestra, hit the British album chart in 1972, reached the 16th position and lasted 15 weeks in it.
By the way, his music is so popular in the world that it was even used in such famous films as Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, James Cameron's Aliens and Tinto Brass's Caligula.
2. Boris Grebenshchikov - 1989
His album Radio Silence, released in England and the US, reached #198 on the Billboard200, despite being recorded with the then super-popular Eurythmics. In the video - BG's performance on the popular TV show David Letterman.
3. Gorky Park-1990
The success of Gorky Park in the US cannot be overstated. They did not conquer America. One need only look at their achievements in the charts. In the Billboard Hot 100, they were noted only by the single Try To Find Me (81st place and 6 weeks on the chart), and on the Billboard 200 - the album Gorky Park (80th place and 21 weeks on the chart).
But Gorky Park sold well in general - 300 thousand copies sold in America alone - this is a very good result. The group achieved much more success in Scandinavia. Gorky Park in Norway took 9th place, and the single Bang - 5th. In Denmark, the album Moscow Calling even went platinum.
4. Alsu-2000
With the song Before You Love Me "under Britney Spears" she got to 27th place for only a week, during the period when they tried to promote it in Europe after 2nd place at Eurovision.
5. PPK-2001
The Rostov trance project PPK with the release of a separate single ResuRection (Eduard Artemiev's melody from the film "Siberiada" by Andrei Konchalovsky with the voice of Yuri Gagarin) debuted in the UK immediately in third place!
The song became the first track from Russia to get into the hot rotation of the BBC Radio One radio station. Then ResuRection was released in other countries, where it also charted successfully - 5th in the Netherlands, 9th in Belgium, and 15th in France and 36th in Australia.
6. Tattoo-2003
In 2002, the English version of their album "200 in the opposite direction" was released and "Tatu" became generally the most popular Russian group in the world. The girls did not become stars of the first magnitude, and their success was not so long, but they sold about 10 million of their records abroad. This is an unattainable result for Russian performers.
The English-language album is now gold 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 the cover of The Smiths in 2009 sounded in the TV series "Gossip Girl".
7. Leonid Agutin - 2007
The author of The Barefoot Boy and husband of Anzhelika Varum graduated from the Moscow Jazz School and from his youth was fond of not only pop music, but also a variety of acoustic guitar music - from jazz to flamenco. In the early 2000s, Agutin began to play concerts, and then he recorded the album "Cosmopolitan Life" together with Al di Meola, an American virtuoso of the genre. In Germany, the album had more than good sales.
8. Eduard Khil - 2009
A famous, sad and beautiful story, as a result of which the great pop singer is known in the world as "Mr. Trololo". On November 26, 2009, a RealPapaPit user uploaded the vocalization "I'm very happy because I'm finally returning home" to YouTube - today this video has 19 million 700 thousand views.
They say that the singer was even offered an international tour - but he refused. Both Gawker and The New York Times wrote about Khil's death.
9. Pussy Riot-2012
This is the only group here that has not been on the Western charts, but it is impossible not to mention it. Musically, it's a comical story. The group, not a single song of which no one has really heard anywhere, has become the most famous musical group from Russia in recent times. Suffice it to say that in the West the Cathedral of Christ the Savior is known as the Pussy Riot Church.
Shortly after the arrest of Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Maria Alyokhina and Ekaterina Samutsevich, musicians around the world began to support them, ranging from Madonna and Paul McCartney to Mike Patton and The Knife and Die Antwoord.
10. Anna Netrebko - 2007-present
The opera singer was able to achieve real world fame, including the United States. She enjoys particular success in Austria, where she received citizenship. Also lives in New York. Her recordings are constantly on the classical music charts, but in some countries they also get into the general music charts. Especially in Austria and Germany. So 15 Netrebko albums got into the Austrian chart .
Bonus: The World's Most Famous Russian Music Video
Bloody viral hit "Bad Motherfucker" by the Russian band Biting Elbows, filmed in the first person and therefore more like an action video game than a music video. The clip was publicly noted by Samuel L. Jackson and Darren Aronofsky. 24.6 million views on Youtube.
