Empress of the Russian stage Irina Allegrova never ceases to please fans with new songs. Despite the fact that the artist is 66 years old, she does not intend to leave the stage. In 2015, the singer created a fresh concert program consisting exclusively of new songs. Of the hits from the stage, only “Wanderer” sounded. And then, the singer asked the audience to perform this incorruptible with her.
New items, by the way, have become a breath of fresh air - “Love is a greedy fool”, “Made in Russia”, “I will beg for love”. What made Allegrova reboot? And abandon the usual role of crazy empress ?!
Farewell tour
Back in 2011, the empress of the Russian stage announced that she was leaving for the last tour. The singer decided to say stop to a big scratch in cities and villages, giving preference to family and private performances. People accepted the idea without enthusiasm and still demanded new concerts. The singer herself noted that for thirty years, singing the same thing can be fed up with the order, and constant flights exhausted her completely.
But in 2012 grief came to the singer’s family - at the 89th year of her life, her mother Serafima Mikhailovna died. Allegrova went headlong to work to forget herself. Her father died back in 1994, but despite the fact that so many years have passed, she still hardly speaks about this loss. And then my mother was gone. As a result, the artist traveled with a farewell program twice throughout Russia and neighboring countries.
When the tour was over, Allegrova realized that her grandson had grown up, her daughter had finally got married, her parents were gone, and the artist, who was used to living from concert to concert, had absolutely nothing to do. The people demanded everything and demanded concerts, and the singer herself was bored without a stage. She did not think long and decided to continue singing, but completely different songs. So the "reboot" happened to her.
"Reboot, rebirth"
With these words, the title track of her new album and concert show of 2015 begins. Having collaborated with a host of young, talented and unknown authors, Allegrova decided to introduce the audience to a completely new repertoire. Basically, the songs are now written to her by composer Konstantin Gubin. Actually, the words in the tracks are also his authorship. From under his pen came the songs "Made in Russia," "Flowers for no reason," "At the resorts," "I beg for love," and others.
He felt that the singer wanted to sound deeper and more “fatal”. Allegrova even spoke about her “reset” and her craving for heavy music at a party with Urgant, noting that she had not yet sung her main song. And he wants to add more powerful guitar riffs and other elements of rock music to the tracks. Her interest in this area arose after a duet with Grigory Leps “I Don't Believe You,” written in the pop-rock genre.
Made in Russia
This composition now sounds in all restaurants and cafes on the Black Sea coast. Not a single evening can do without a fun and patriotic song. But it was not included in the "Reboot" program. And all because Gubin wrote this track only in 2016.
Presented the song "Made in Russia" Allegrova in September 2016 on the "New Wave" and away we go. She has become her biggest hit in recent years. Now at corporate parties and resorts adult boys and girls sing the song "Made in Russia" at least "Empress" and "Hijackers."
History of creation
As Allegrova herself said in an interview, the idea to write a patriotic song in a humorous manner came to her mind a long time ago. Just the author was not suitable.
And the thing is that the singer has a summer vacation in Miami, where she has an apartment. And when it came to the farewell tour, the people started talking about the fact that she wanted to move abroad, so to speak, to survive. At the same time, rumors spread that the Empress of the Russian stage intends to open a bakery in Italy and allegedly even acquired a factory there. True, all this turned out to be fiction. There it was. Allegrova is a well-known patriot and has always stated to journalists and continues to declare that she loves Russia and hence does not foot.
Mono
The show "Reloaded" swept through cities and villages, surprising fans. They went to the concert to hear good old songs, and in the end received a track list of completely unfamiliar motifs. Allegrova only performed “The Wanderer” and then, the hall sang half the song. But in general, viewers left positive reviews.
Realizing that the former repertoire is indispensable, two years later, just in time for her 65th birthday, Irina Allegrova launched the new concert program Mono. Her song of the same name opened, and then followed remakes of hits for half the performance, to the delight of those who came. And after the artist showed new items and those hits that appeared in recent years. Among them, "I do not believe you," with Leps, "When Love Dies" and "Made in Russia." People accepted this format with admiration. By the way, she added Leps’s song “A glass of vodka on the table” to Allegrov’s track list, which added a little pepper to the romantic and lyrical mood of each performance.
The song "Madein Russia" (Made in Russia)
Sweating in Tuscany,
I'm confused in Morocco
To me from the alien sun, from the alien sun
Little good ...
I will bathe in Miami
I mingle with the English Channel.
And more likely home, and more likely home.
I'm MADE IN RUSSIA!
The track is really funny and patriotic, which is worth at least the refrain. We suggest you listen to this song again, and at the same time look at the “reset” Allegrova.
