True, it always felt like she was the force behind the group so it's different to see Olya being the lead member now after I disregarded her back in the day as the "model" of the group.

She's done wonderful work with the band though, shame Dasha and Polina are such throwaway bandmembers but at least we still have a band to put out great tracks like this one.

It's another wonderful video but Malo Tebya is still my favourite.

I don't think their new songs are as interesting as their older ones, although I did quite like Kiss / Pereputala. This is one I don't think I will go back to. Musically I would say they were at their peak around Sladka / Ne Vremya.

 

BTW I still can't figure out if Kiss and Pereputala are Russian / English mixes of the same song with slight changes or actually differrent songs :lol:

And that highlights the problem with their recent material, they start sounding like a rehash of what came immediately before it. To me their recent sound peaked with "Malo Tebya", and before that with "Davai"... They're all fantastic tunes but I can see they start blurring into each other for the casual listener.

 

In fact that seems to be their strategy since "Like Mary Warner", which was followed by the similar sounding "Ne Vremya" and the superior "Davaj Derzhatsya Za Ruki'. Then they had "Mama Lover", "Mi Mi Mi" and "Gun" which are all the same idea for a party track, and now "Malo Tebya", "Ya Tebya Ne Otdam", "Ne Nado Bolnee" and this new one. I suppose if it ain't broken don't fix it.
