On June 15, 2010, FliT together with the Quarto Corde String Ensemble, the Vertical Limit band, and other invited musicians performed the first largest in Ukrainian history acoustic concert in Ivano-Frankivsk. Instrumental parts for the ensemble were written by Miroslav Litvak. The concert was also filmed.

Early in the year 2017, Vladimir Novikov and Igor Ozarko reunited again. At the beginning of 2018, Vova and Igor re-released album of Ukrainian Flit songs in English language called "Walking in Circles" to begin concert activity in the U.S. and observe the reaction of local rock fans to music from Ukraine. A little later, they introduced a new single "New York Symphony".

In 2019 FliT started a new page in band story:
1. Vladimir Novikov and Igor Ozarko started performing under the old name FliT (but now using Latin instead of Cyrillic).
2. Andriy Markiv, who has been a member of the Flit in Ukraine since its creation, announces his leave.
3. After 15-year break, one of the founders of the Flit, co-author of the lyrics of the album "Svit takyi…" ("The World is such..."), backing vocalist Vitaliy Belyakov (Belya) returns to the band.
4. In the spring, FliT accidentally got in touch a young talented musician, Andriy Dragushchak, who became bass player.

On July 1, 2019, the rebranded Ukrainian-American FliT releases the new EP "Raptom" ("Suddenly") in Ukrainian, atmospherically designed in the style of the first FliT album "Svit takyi…" ("The World is such...").

December 17, 2019, FliT released new EP - "Just Go".

Ягідка
Фліт Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Раз, два, п'ять, шість!

Ягідко, ягодко, знайду я тєбя
Від мене не ховайся, мила ти моя
Прийде злий дідусько, потопче гілки
Аби не дісталась солоденька мені

Ой малинко та й ожинко, не пропадай

Стрибай в кошик парубкові, часу не гай
Ой малинко та й ожинко, не пропадай
Стрибай в кошик парубкові, часу не гай

(Халяви не буде! Понял?)

Маєш дуже гарне гілля захисне
Як у кущ полізеш, писок роздере
Але буде призом мультивітамін
А роздертий писок, не в рахунок він

Ой малинко та й ожинко, не пропадай
Стрибай в кошик парубкові, часу не гай
Ой малинко та й ожинко, не пропадай
Стрибай в кошик парубкові, часу не гай

(Да, очень популярная песня)

Overall Meaning

The song "Ягідка" by Фліт is about searching for and picking berries. The opening line, "raz, dva, pyat, shist" (one, two, five, six), serves as a count off before the singer begins their search for the elusive berry. He calls out to the berry, asking it not to hide from him, emphasizing its sweetness and how precious it is to him. He warns that an old man might come and break the branches the berry is on to keep it from him, but the singer is determined to find it.

The chorus encourages the berry not to go to waste, and suggests it jump into the basket of the young man (parubok) so that it can be enjoyed. The singer acknowledges that the berry might have thorny branches that could cut, but insists that the reward of the berry's nutritious vitamins is worth any scratches.

The song has a whimsical, playful tone and was likely intended to be a cheerful folk song. Its lightheartedness is emphasized by the singer's count off at the beginning of the song, and the repeated chorus of "ой малинко та й ожинко" (oh little raspberry and blackberry) is catchy and easy to sing along to.
