Alla Pugacheva allowed Sergei Zverev to violate copyright: “What about the producer?”

“I heard that they have a scandal over this song”

The flamboyant singer Sergei Zverev sings the forbidden but popularly loved song “Music has bound us.” The “MK” correspondent managed to hear the composition of the group “Mirage” performed by the ex-hairdresser. And at the same time, ask if he has permission to use this scandalous song.

It turned out that Sergei Zverev did not have any permission to perform this song. Moreover, knowing numerous trials, he was even afraid to take this song into his repertoire. But one day, after talking with Alla Pugacheva, his opinion changed. The actress, with a light hand, allowed him to perform the song he liked, and if the copyright holders had any questions, then everyone should be directed to her. Thus, Pugacheva allowed her favorite hairdresser to violate copyright. Zverev recalled his dialogue with Alla Pugacheva, which took place many years ago:

– I have been singing the song “Music Connected Us” for many years. The thing is that when I wrote the song “Alla” and “For You,” then I received offers to work in stadiums. And I said to Alla: “What should I do? They invite me.” To which she says: “Agree, go.”

Sergei clarified that he could not do this, since he had only two songs in his repertoire at that time. Alla Borisovna answered him:

– Record another cover. What songs do you like?” she asked.

Sergei listed the songs, and the first on the list was “Music Connected Us.”

“Well, sing,” said Pugacheva.

– So simple? And I heard that they had a scandal there around this song. And the producer is very strict,” exclaimed Sergei.

– What about the producer? – Alla Borisovna was again questioningly surprised.

– Well, what if he calls me? – Zverev did not let up.

– So good, let him call. “Say hello, get to know each other,” the artist answered.

– What if he comes at me? – Sergei was already completely worried.

“And you tell him: all questions to Alla Borisovna,” she summed up.

So Sergei has been waiting for his call for many years. True, hand on heart, the ex-hairdresser extremely rarely performs this song, since the singer simply does not have concerts now.
