When my trotting dun is trotting
the fog on the ground clears up
When the eloquent girl manifests herself
The Seven Stars conjoin
My sweetheart’s two eyes
are like the stars that rise late
Her coarse braid
is like the cedar of my taiga pasture
When my ambling dun is ambling
the first fog clears up
When my witty dear manifests herself
The first stars conjoin
Its children are bold,
cheerful and merry, deng-deng
Its peoples are free
it is our Tuva, deng-deng
My young beloved’s two eyes
are like the stars that shine in the evening
Her braid born in autumn
is like some land’s cedar

I think the guy in blue has a very beautiful voice.
@bmf0003
agreed... his voice adds a youthful quality to the back and forth motif with the other older members, which I really quite enjoy
@nayannbg6314
Megameats yeah he has got a deep soothing voice, the song Saryglalar really shows his true potential as a singer
@nicolasgoldring7128
His name is Radik Tyulyush, and he, indeed, does have a beautiful voice.

Blues is all about electric guitar skill. But combine the throat singing and electric guitar is the good idea.
@Sludgedragon
He does, but I have rather a weakness for throat singing
