After completing the designer studies in the city of Riga, Latvia, he moved to Moscow to pursue music career under the pretence of being a foreign pop star. His personal life was wrapped in mystery despite his rapid shot to stardom and much talk caused by it nationwide. And the talk was not always a pleasant one. Giving him credit for his extraordinary gifts and merits in music people noted unanimously that he was very hard to deal with. The rumor has it that Shura enraged the whole crew at the shooting of his first video Cold Moon. He was angry with just about everything; the plot, the cast, the crew, the director, even the weather. And he was expressing his indignation very fervently, stomping, shouting. He found two cross-dressers at the site of the filming (actually, Candyman gay club in St. Petersburg), brought them to cast and demanded 200 dollars' fee for each of the two.
1997-1998 was the most fruitful period for him as he released his major hits Cold Moon \Holodnaya luna\, Summer Rains Ended \Otshumeli letnye dozhdy\ which were in heavy rotation and topped many charts and radio airplay counts. 2001 earned him another success with Do Good Things \Tvori dobro\ single. He was extensively touring Russia and it was the time when he started to develop his now trademark bizarre feminine outfits and iridescent stage persona. Another notable feature of the performer's image was his toothlessness of which he constantly boasted, singing with conspicuous lisp (at least on his first three albums as he had had his teeth fixed later on). Since 2001 his fame began to fade and for the past 6 years he has moved out of the limelight.
He continues to tour Russia and post-Soviet countries today, performing chiefly his old material and playing small venues like night-clubs or private parties for business tycoons. In 2010 he put out a new single Balloons (Vozdushnye shary\ to almost zero publicity.
Shura is reportedly gay though in May 2010 he revealed the prospect of marrying Liza, his long-time friend.
День за окном
Шура Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Пылает море радужных костров.
Мы с тобою идём,
Под листопадом праздничных цветов.
Смеётся день за окном солнечным зайчиком
И дремлет ветер под старым крыльцом.
Деревья помнят меня маленьким мальчиком.
Дождь прольётся солнечный,
Снова над землёй, снова над землёй, снова над землёй.
Всё что я хочу лишь быть с тобой,
С тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой.
Так много раз,
Судьба дарила взгляды нежных глаз.
И я знаю сейчас,
Ты улыбнёшься мне в который раз.
Смеётся день за окном солнечным зайчиком
И дремлет ветер под старым крыльцом.
Деревья помнят меня маленьким мальчиком.
Не прошу у неба ничего
Дождь прольётся солнечный,
Снова над землёй, снова над землёй, снова над землёй.
Всё что я хочу лишь быть с тобой,
С тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой.
Лишь быть с тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой.
The lyrics of Шура's song "День за окном" (Day outside the window) describe a joyful and celebratory atmosphere. The first verse sets the scene of a day filled with vibrant colors and a sea of rainbow bonfires. The singer and their companion walk together under the shower of festive falling leaves. The second verse portrays the day outside the window as a playful and sunny bunny, while the wind peacefully dozes off under an old porch. The trees hold memories of the singer as a little child. Despite all the beauty and joy surrounding them, the singer asks for nothing from the sky except for a sunny rain to fall again over the earth. All they desire is to be with their beloved.
The repetitive chorus emphasizes the singer's yearning to be with their loved one, highlighting that being together is the only thing they truly desire.

День за окном
The day outside
Пылает море радужных костров
The sea of bright bonfires blazing
Мы с тобою идём
We walk together
Под листопадом праздничных цветов
Beneath the fall of festive flowers
Смеётся день за окном солнечным зайчиком
The day outside laughs like a sunny bunny
И дремлет ветер под старым крыльцом
And the wind dozes under the old porch
Деревья помнят меня маленьким мальчиком
The trees remember me as a little boy
Не прошу у неба ничего
I don't ask the sky for anything
Дождь прольётся солнечный
A sunny rain will pour
Снова над землёй, снова над землёй, снова над землёй
Again over the land, again over the land, again over the land
Всё что я хочу лишь быть с тобой
All I want is to be with you
С тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой
With you, with you, with you, with you
Так много раз
So many times
Судьба дарила взгляды нежных глаз
Fate has given tender glances
И я знаю сейчас
And I know now
Ты улыбнёшься мне в который раз
You will smile at me once again
Лишь быть с тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой, с тобой
Only to be with you, with you, with you, with you, with you
