где можно найти русские/советские/современные песни на английском языке? Тату и Гимн Советского Союза в наличии имеются.

Когда-то слышала на английском "Очи черные" и "Подмосковные вечера".
Поделитесь ссылками, пожалуйста.

THERE WAS A DAY, MY FRIEND (Дорогой длинною)
Once upon a time there was a tavern where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away for hours and dreamt of all the great things we would do.
Those were the days, my friend, we thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance for ever and a day
We'd live the life we choose and fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
Those were the days, yes, those were the days..
2. Then the busy years went rushing by us . We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I see you in the tavern we'd smile at one another and we'd say: R
3. Just tonight I stood before the tavern, nothing seemed the way it used to be.
In the glass I saw a strange reflection. Was that lonely woman really me?
4. Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face, I heard you call my name,
Oh my friend, we are older, but no wiser, for in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

DARK BIG EYES (ОЧИ ЧЕРНЫЕ)
I once had a dream of a love supreme
Then you came my way - I still bless that day
For my dream come true when I look at you
With those flashing eyes - oh, those big dark eyes!
Oh, those big dark eyes! How they tantalize!
when they stare at me, how they glare at me
Every part of you is a dream come true
But your beauty lies in your big dark eyes.
I'm not sorry now that you broke your vow
Maybe I'll still find somewhere there's peace of mind
You bewitch my eye from the very sky
with those big dark eyes - очи черные!

Спасибо, но мне нужно исполнение на английском. Если есть линки на музыкальные файлы этих песен на английском языке, то пож., дайте.

Вот пример - гимн СССР на английском языке: http://www.soviet-empire.com/audio/ussr_national_anthem_1944_english.mp3

Гимн - чудо!!!
asil, а он есть в печатном варианте, я не поняла в нескольких местах, особенно когда хор?

Интересно, а кто так перевести сподобился? И вообще для каких целей такой вариант выпустили? Не для популяризации же) Запись 44-го года как я понимаю из заголовка - война всё-таки. Или может это как-то со вторым фронтом связано?

Интеллектуалы всех стран - объединяйтесь!)))

Автор: asil

про печатный вариант - не знаю. Если будет время, и главное - ЖЕЛАНИЕ, то послушаю, и дам слова. I suspect the lirycs can be found on the net.
Взяла отсюда: http://www.sovmusic.ru/download.php?fname=ussr_eng
но угадайте кто исполняет? - Поль Робсон. Вот так.

А как Вам вот это?http://www.cprf.ru/sound/su03.mp3

Along with balalaika music!

A bunch more pages here:

maybe you can find some more.

BTW, listening to it on the balalaika makes me want to ask - is the current Russian national anthem as difficult to sing as ours? People here have been debating changing it for decades because no one can sing the range of notes it requires. Yours has some very high ones too.

sorry, still no singing in English.

Автор: Forget-me-not    
Listening to such kind of music in every language you can notice that absolutely ALL of them are performed high. And may be too high to the general singers)) but noone except chorus never sing it like this)


Concerning the English version of the Soviet anthem - I FOUND IT!!! I was surprised that it was also written by S. Mikhalkov!
