Текст песни С.Беликов - Ночная гостья

The fate of the musician - an unpredictable thing: someone takes off on top of the charts, performing just one song, and someone adds popularity whole ten teams. A striking example - Sergey Belikov, behind which almost all known groups in the Soviet era: "Jolly Fellows", preserved to this day "Gems", an underground "Araks" ...
- About me now say a lot of things. The latest rumor was that I died - these words greeted us in his apartment singer Sergey Belikov. Why do we descended to him at ten o'clock? Yes, very much often have to turn on the radio favorite all the "troubles have green eyes," "Live, spring" and "Everything in life is me."
And the life of the musician, little is known. Was. Still.

Bucket in each room.

- I see your hair wet. Decided to take a dip in the morning?

- Yes it is, I poured myself a bucket of cold water. Long-term habit. I even have a rider indicated that the room was definitely a bucket. When we had the cottage, we sweated with his wife every day throughout the winter.

While the singer is divided in such detail, wife Helen had already made coffee ... and the phone "for a snack."

- I am hesitant to do over the phone. And here is the call ... Yeah, it's me. 15th in Nizhny Novgorod? It seems clear, - Belikov hangs up. - And so it has to be twisted. I, in addition to his solo programs, to participate in two projects: working with an ensemble "Gems", which was also a soloist in the 70-80s, and in the "Legends of the VIA".

After a two-hour morning talks Belikov sent to the studio, which is in the room of his son. Computer, recording unit, synthesizer, guitar - full of "ammunition".

- If there was the day before the tour, I start to sing at eleven in the morning, when the voice wakes up. But yesterday was a concert, so today started a little later. I "live" singer, and it requires training, - Sergey picks up a guitar and starts to sing.

- I heard that you are working on a new album ...

- Yes. CD is called "Maybe I'll stay." Decided to collect my most famous songs and new compositions. At home studio doing the dirty work, and after it will send the material more experienced arrangers.

- Previously, probably, it was easier to be in show business?

- Twenty years ago, show business and did not exist. There was a certain pop culture of the Soviet Union, which at different times more or less regulated by the Ministry of Culture. And now can play and sing all those who have money. "Idol" has shown that the figures TV redraws music market to their advantage. I think the drama of Russian show business, he became dependent on money.

- If there is no sponsor, they need to become the most - would you do business. Now everybody does it ...

- To open a restaurant, you have to have a decent capital. And I have not earned. But between you and me, many artists who are co-owners, too, because the money is not getting out of his own pocket. So life was - friendship with the "right" people and all that. I have this problem could not be solved. But if I had a candle factory (Belikov smiles), I would not mind.

During the talk time is for dinner. Sergei remembers that today was going to visit a fitness club - swim, take a steam bath and a workout at the gym.

- I became interested bath on the recommendation of doctors. Usually, my wife and I spend three hours on it. Several visits to the steam room, talking and reading of newspapers in the gaps. But today, Lena is not feeling, so I'll go one quickly.

Prior to the fitness center at hand: three minutes on foot.

- Good to engage on an empty stomach - says the musician, riding simulator for inflating the arm muscles. - Actually, I go here, not in order to pump up muscle mass, and not to lose their elasticity one that has been so far.

- Have any of your colleagues goes here do?

- No one has seen. I think many of those removed for cover in the gym, do it for the sake of public relations. Came portrayed large physical culture
