Musician Anton Pukh performed the song "Lube" "Bully" as part of the band's tribute

The musician of the punk band F.P.G. Anton "Pooh" Pavlov performed the song "Bully" by the group "Lyube" as part of the tribute album of the group "Lyube. 35. Everything begins again ...". The song was released on April 4 on all music platforms.

"The song "Bully" is a song about a rebel. We gave it the roughness of punk rock, but the lyricism and depth of the folk motif remained in it anyway. A soulful song," said the performer.

Lyube noted that 35 years after the creation of "Hooligan", it was F.P.G. who could sing it in tribute, with his own energy, audacity and a penchant for musical experiment — reinterpreting a midtempo song into an action movie with a guitar flurry. In his performance, Pooh conveyed the image of a "dangerous jerk" on the streets of a big city, which the famous band sang about in the late 1980s.

The songwriter Alexander Shaganov said that the composer Igor Matvienko in the composition "Bully" was able to convey the romanticism of the hero of the song, who represents a lost man with a nagging note of loneliness.

"This song is dear to me because its literary construction is difficult to perform. There were no such songs on stage at that time," he stressed.

On January 27, the song "From the Volga to the Yenisei", included in the eighth studio album of the Lube group "Rasseya", released in 2005, was covered by singer Habib for the tribute collection "Lube. 35. Everything begins again...". The performer noted that he liked the drive of this composition, and he performed it with color, fun and expanse.

The first single from the tribute album was the song "Taganskaya Station" performed by rock musician Garik Sukachev. He said that he has known Rastorguev for more than 40 years and remembers the first Lyube songs perfectly.

The tribute "Lyube. 35. Everything starts again..." is a reinterpretation of the band's songs by other musicians in their signature style. The idea to record such an album appeared more than a year ago, and more than 50 performers and bands of various generations and genres took part in the work on it.
