Vadim KozinVadim Alexeych Kozin was born the son of a merchant in Saint Petersburg to Alexei Gavrilovich Kozin and Vera Ilinskaya in 1903. His mother was a gypsy and often sang in the local gypsy choir. Their house was frequently full of musicians, exposing Vadim to tradition from an early age.
He began to sing professionally in the 1920s, and gained success almost immediately. In the 1930s he moved to Moscow and began playing with the accompanist Dmitri Ashkenazi.
During WWII he served in the entertainment brigade and sang for the Russian troops.
In 1944, shortly before the birthday of Stalin, the police chief Lavrenty Beria called him up and asked why his songs didn't involve Stalin. Kozin famously replied that songs about Stalin were not suited for tenor voices. In late 1944 Kozin was sentenced to 5 years in jail as part of the repression campaign against prominent Soviet performers and was sent to Magadan.
His prison sentence deeply traumatized Kozin, leading to the cessation of his singing career. He even began burning his own records, to the point where his friends were forced to hide their own copies from him in order to preserve them. He remained in Magadan for some years after his release, unwilling to reappear in the public eye.
In 1959 Kozin resumed his singing career and once again began to tour Russia.
The Soviet government never officially rehabilitated him. and his 90th birthday was celebrated in private among friends in Magadan. He died at the age of 91 in 1994.

Осень
Вадим Козин Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Небо как будто в тумане
Даль из тонов перламутра
Солнце холодное, раннее
Где наша первая встреча
Яркая, острая, тайная
В тот летний памятный вечер
Не уходи! — тебя я умоляю
Слова любви сто крат я повторю
Пусть осень у дверей, я это твердо знаю
Но все ж не уходи, — тебе я говорю
Наш уголок нам никогда не тесен
Когда ты в нём, то в нём цветет весна
Не уходи, еще не спето столько песен
Еще звенит в гитаре каждая струна
Наш уголок нам никогда не тесен
Когда ты в нём, то в нём цветет весна
Не уходи, еще не спето столько песен
Еще звенит в гитаре каждая струна
The lyrics of Вадим Козин's song Осень, or "Autumn" in English, describe a cold, clear morning with the sky appearing as if enveloped in mist. The distant landscape is described as shimmering with the tones of mother-of-pearl. The song then delves into the singer's memories of a past love, recalling their first meeting on a bright and secretive summer evening. The singer implores their love not to leave, asserting that they will repeat their declaration of love a hundred times over and that, even though autumn is at the doorstep, their partner should not leave. The song concludes with the reassurance that the duo's corner of the world will never be cramped as long as they are together, and that there are many more songs left to be written and played on their guitar.
The lyrics of Осень are filled with imagery that evokes feelings of nostalgia and memory. The description of the landscape as being enveloped in a pearly mist creates a cold and ethereal atmosphere, which is reinforced by the cold morning sun. The singer's recollections of a first love are also cast in sepia tones, with even the memory of the evening being described as secretive. The desperate plea not to leave and the reassurance that there are many more songs to be written together construct an image of a love that is both comforting and intense.

Осень, прозрачное утро
Clear autumn morning
Небо как будто в тумане
Sky seems to be in a fog
Даль из тонов перламутра
Distance is made of mother-of-pearl tones
Солнце холодное, раннее
Cold, early sun
Где наша первая встреча
Where is our first meeting
Яркая, острая, тайная
Bright, sharp, secretive
В тот летний памятный вечер
In that memorable summer evening
Милая, словно случайная
Lovely, as if accidental
Не уходи! — тебя я умоляю
Don't leave! - I'm begging of you
Слова любви сто крат я повторю
I'll repeat words of love a hundred times
Пусть осень у дверей, я это твердо знаю
Let autumn be at the door, I know it for sure
Но все ж не уходи, — тебе я говорю
But still, don't leave - I'm telling you
Наш уголок нам никогда не тесен
Our corner is never too small for us
Когда ты в нём, то в нём цветет весна
When you're there, it's always spring in it
Не уходи, еще не спето столько песен
Don't leave, so many songs haven't been sung yet
Еще звенит в гитаре каждая струна
Each string of the guitar still rings

Осуждён и Сослан в Магадан (любил мальчиков) ... И там после отсидки занимался тем же.... Жил и умер в Магадане.. Прекраснейший голос, а песни в его исполнении просто не сравнимы ни с чьим исполнением...

@Наталья Пушкарева была за это статья. Вот и пострадал.
@user-rm4qq6jr8q
Про мальчиков слышу впервые. А Вы что, свечку держали? Тенор - тип мужского голоса наряду с баритоном и басом и наличие такого голоса ещё ничего не доказывает об интимной стороне исполнителя.
