    Girls power 3. For advanced listeners. Minnet.
    Image and video hosting by TinyPic

    The name of this group is unknown to the most listeners even in russia. But the music is known for everyone at least some songs. The matter of fact that for the first their hits they borrowed music from composers such as Mozart, Beethoven. It were full-fledged covers, for example of Ode to Joy.

    The lyrics were completely original storytelling about everyday life of high school girls from below average neighborhood, boys and their consequences. By the way in russian federation there is no neighborhood, everybody live in the same ugly apartment buildings, side by side.

    So it was unexpected mix of immortal classic tunes and ordinary young girls problem`s. And they really managed to pull it off. They escaped the comical effect it might had produced, and come across a dramatic impression of an eternal beauty of the classic and the youth.

    It really worked for the classic is spiritual but the youth is not totally unheavenly as well. The background was as mundane as it might be, an urban outskirts of a big city. The lyrics and the sets of clips implied some degree of social ill-beign at the same time. But it darkened nothing.

    As we may see Minnet apply contradictions wherever it could. It wasn`t a fight between the good and evil. However they always exactly marked what they thought right. It rather was the struggle itself in all its glory, that shone as a precious gem in every song. There is a hope, until we resist.

    To worsen the path to success they applied the contradiction method to themselves. The group of young girls took as a name a phrase Minnet (there is no landmines) that sounds pretty like blowjob in russian. The first album was named PeaceDa (yes to the peace) that is vulgar name for vagina.

    Indispensable listening is classic`s covers PeaceDa, Eto Ne Znaet Nikto and Vse Budet Horosho, and other staff Sudnyi Den, Mama, Prosti Proshchai. There is no need to seek for any clips, cause they didn`t achieved the stage then they could afford good video.

    So they issued an album, one clip was on MTV, later here and there gossips spreaded about new album, even appeared some new songs. But it was over before the start. All that stays is a beatiful juxtaposition of vienna`s geniuses and russian urban girls who almost outsang them.

    They ended up pretty bad. If you try so hard to do everything in opposite matter, you may succeed. Have started wearing no pants on scene, they hadn`t much where to go further. Starting as outliers they very quickly prompted themselves to complete expulsion.

    So it is a good lesson, how you shouldn`t behave on stage. First of all put on some clothes, nobody wants to see your underwear. Good artist must have good costume. An attire must be original or fashionable. A human beign should be beautiful in every way, face, clothes, mind and soul.

    Second stop talking like cobbler or sailor or whomever your culture refer to as an obscene sexually charged bad mouth. It isn`t cute. It doesn`t shock. It is perceived like a plain offense out of blue. It breaks any communication between artist and public.

    Russians not so hypocrite as they really don`t like some thing. They are aware of an existence of nudity or obscenity. And there is an appropriate time and place for either of them. If you are going for breaking rules nobody would stop you, there would be no preaching or haranguing.

    Public just took a step back and watched them falling. The music was light, the lyric was darker. The lyric outweighed the music and the group flied down an abyss, that`s the magic power of russian words.
