History
In 1982, Komsomolskaya Pravda declared a competition for young music performers called Zolotoy Kamerton (Golden Tuning Fork). DDT sent three compositions, "Inoplanetyane" (Aliens), "Chyornoye solntse" (Black sun), and "Ne strelyai" (Don't shoot).
During the long-running competition, the group published their first album (on tape), Svinya na raduge (A pig on a rainbow). The album contained elements of rock and roll, blues and country music.
DDT's submission to Zolotoy Kamerton passed through to the finals and the group was invited to perform in a concert at Moscow's Orlyonok complex, together with the other finalist band, Rok-sentyabr (Rock-September) from Cherepovets. DDT and three members of Rock-September, Vyacheslav Korbin, Yevgeny Belozyorov and Andrey Maslennikov, soon after recorded and published an album (on tape), Monolog v Saigone (Monologue in Saigon).
After recording the album, Sigachyov and Shevchuk returned to Ufa. Sigachyov distanced himself from the group, while Shevchuk collected new members including Rodin, drummer Sergey Rudogo, guitarist Rustam Rezvanov and keyboard player Vladislav Strochillo.
In May 1983, DDT successfully performed at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, as part of a three-day, sanctioned festival, "Rok za mir" (Rock for peace).
The new formation published the album Periferia (Periphery), recorded in April 1984.
Shevchuk spent some time in Sverdlovsk (present-day Yekaterinburg), performing with the group Urfin Juis.
In November 1985, DDT recorded the album Vremya (Time) in Sverdlovsk.
In 1986, Shevchuk moved to Leningrad (present Saint Petersburg) with his wife, son and mother.
In 1987 he rebuilt DDT. The members included:
* Nikita Zaitsev — guitar
* Vadim Kurylev — bass
* Andrey Vasiliev — guitar
* Igor Dotsenko — drums
* Andrey Muratov — keyboard
* Mikhail Chernov — saxophone
In June 1987, DDT performed at a Leningrad rock-club festival. DDT performed second-to-last and in front of a crowd of 3,000, even though the venue's capacity was 1,000.
In the summer of 1988, DDT toured across the USSR, and they record a new album, Ottepel (Thaw).
In 1989, DDT went on another tour with the group Alisa, performing also at a rock-festival in Hungary.
In 1990, DDT performed several concerts in the U.S.A. and Japan. They also performed as part of a concert in honor of Viktor Tsoy.
In 1991, DDT released another album, Plastun (Scout). The next album followed in the spring of the same year, Aktrisa Vesna (Actress Spring).
Then the group changed its performance strategy by adding programmes to its repertoire: well-prepared, conceptually linked concerts. During December 1992 and January 1993, DDT presented its first programme, Chyorny Pyos Peterburg (Black Dog Petersburg), and toured widely in CIS countries.
On 27 May 1993, the anniversary of Saint Petersburg, DDT performed a free concert on Dvortsovaya Square. 120,000 people attended.
During the summer of 1994, DDT took part in the rock festival White Nights of Saint Petersburg in Berlin. That autumn, the group was awarded the prestigious Ovatsiya award (Ovation) for Best Rock Group of the Year. Yuri Shevchuk was also named Best Rock Musician of the Year.
In the beginning of 1995, a new album, Eto vsyo… (That's all…). was recorded. In January, Shevchuk went on a mission of peace to Chechnya, where he performed in 50 concerts for the Russian troops and Chechen citizens alike.
On 25 June 1995, DDT performed a solo concert in Petrovsky stadium, which attracted tens of thousands of fans.
Afterwards, the group toured with its next programme, Ot i do (From start to finish). In the end of the winter of 1995–1996, the group worked in the USA. In February–March 1996, the group recorded a new album, Lubov (Love), at Long View Farm in Massachusetts with new musicians: bassist I. Tikhomirov (from the group Kino) and keyboard player D. Galitsky.
Bio (extended)
Yuri Shevchuk and the Russian rock group "DDT" have been leaders in the Russian rock movement for many years. Shevchuk began to put together the first incarnation of the band in the summer of 1980, and although its members have changed over the years.
DDT was organized and gave its first concerts in Shevchuk's native city of Ufa in the Ural Mountains in 1980. They received their first public recognition when they were given the "Golden Pitchpipe" prize for their song "Ne Strelyai" (Don't Shoot) in 1982 by a local newspaper.
They made their first visit to the U.S.A. in 1988, when their concert in Los Angeles was covered by MTV. After the U.S.S.R.'s dissoultion in 1991, DDT became more popular at home and abroad.

Shevchuk and his group also regularly travel throughout the C.I.S. and other former Soviet republics to give benefit concerts: in the spring and summer of 2002, 10 out of 11 concerts that the band played were benefits for various social and cultural organizations. They are also reaching an ever-growing audience in the U.S.A. and Europe.

Просвистела
ДДТ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Чуть поела, да скатилась по золе
Убитых песен, да мне нечего терять.
Мир так тесен - дай-ка, брат, тебя обнять.
Всюду черти - надави, брат, на педаль.
Час до смерти, да сгоревшего не жаль,
А в чистом поле - ангелочки, васильки.
А на небе встретят Сашка да Илья,
Хватит хлеба, да сто грамм - без них нельзя.
Что нам плакать, здесь не срам, чего страдать.
Рай не слякоть, вьюга наша благодать.
Всё расскажем про восход и про закат,
Горы сажи, да про горький мармелад,
Что доели, когда закончили войну.
Да как сели мы на Родине в плену.
Просвистела и упала на столе.
Чуть поела, да скатилась на золе
Убитых песен, да мне нечего терять.
Мир так тесен, дай-ка, брат, тебя обнять.
The lyrics of ДДТ's song "Просвистела" paint a picture of a harsh reality of life, where death and loss are quick and sudden. The first verse opens with the image of a fallen bird on a table, a lifeless creature that had just eaten its last meal. The symbolic reference here is the fragility of life and how it can be taken away in an instant. The next line points to a personal loss, saying "убитых песен, да мне нечего терять," which can be translated to "dead songs, and I have nothing left to lose."
The second verse speaks of the harshness of the world that surrounds us, the "черти" (devils) that we must overcome by pressing down on the accelerator pedal. The reminder of death breathes down our neck, yet the singer seems to be indifferent to it: "да сгоревшего не жаль," which can be translated to "and the burned one isn't sorry," a reference to someone who has died in a fiery death without having to suffer any pain. The third verse is filled with references to the joys of life, the fleeting moments of connection, and the bittersweet memories of times past. The song ends with a plea to embrace the present moment, to find solace and comfort with others, even if just for a brief moment.

Naaman
Elle a sifflé et est tombée sur la table
Elle a un peu mangé et a roulé dans la cendre
Des chansons tuées, je n'ai rien à y perdre
Le monde est si petit. Allez, mon frère, je voudrais te prendre dans mes bras
Les démons sont partout. Appuie sur la pédale, mon frère,
Dans une heure, c'est la, mort, je ne regrette pas ce qui est brûlé
Et dans le champ clair, il y a ces petits anges de bleuets
Et nous sommes libres, et il n'y a ni brûlé, ni tristesse
Et dans le ciel se rencontreront Sacha et Ilya
Il y a suffisamment de pain, 100 grammes, ils sont indispensables
Pourquoi pleurer, ici, il n'y a pas de honte, pourquoi souffrir
Le paradis, ce n'est la pluie d'automne, mais la tempête de neige
Nous raconterons tout sur le lever et le coucher du soleil
Les montagnes de suie, et sur la marmelade amère
Que l'on a terminée lorsqu'on a fini la guerre,
Lorsqu'on était en prison dans notre patrie

Whistled by and fell on the table,
Ate a little and rolled down the cinder
Of murdered songs, yes - I've nothing to lose.
The world is so small, brother, let me hug you!
(Oooohooooooohhoooooo…..
Ayya!)
Devils everywhere - hit the pedal, brother!
An hour till death, but no pity for the burned.
In the open fields - angels and cornflowers,
And we're free, and there's no burning and no longing.
(Oooohooooooohhoooooo…..
Ayya!)
In the sky Sashka and Ilya will meet me,
There'll be bread enough, and a 100 grams - can't go without them!
Why should we cry, - there's no shame, why should we suffer?
Paradise isn't mire, - our blizzard is heaven!
(Oooohooooooohhoooooo…..
Ayya!)
We'll tell everything - of the sunrise and the sunset,
The mountains of cinder, and the bitter marmalade,
That we ate up as we finished the war,
And of how we became prisoners of our Motherland.
(Oooohooooooohhoooooo…..
Ayya!)
Whistled by and fell on the table,
At a little and rolled down the cinder
Of murdered songs, yes - I've nothing to lose.
The world is so small, brother, let me hug you!

Почему почти все любители рок-музыки считают своим долгом ненавидеть и оскорблять всю остальную музыку? Не, я тоже люблю рок, я тоже не слушаю поп и рэп, но разве не побоку, что там слушают другие люди? Ну нравится им рэп, ну пусть слушают, мешают они вам чтоли?
