Today I want to share with you a song by my favorite musician. This is the Russian punk rock band “King and Jester”. Soloist and founder of the group Mikhail Gorshenev (1973 - 2013). Unfortunately, he has already left us in 2013, but his memory will be long. He was a very talented soloist. His songs make me feel for my soul.
Today I want to share with you one of his songs. This song is about a musician who was a fan of the violin. He played the violin and dreamed of dying on stage.
I have moments in my life when I listen to the songs of this band all day long. I really like this band. Sometimes they help me to cope with the difficulties that arise in my life.
For example, today I listened to one song on auto-repeat all day long. It was a composition called “Coda.” I'll give you a link to a YouTube video so you can listen to it too.
I also prepared for you a translation of the song and phonetics, I did not find it ready on the Internet, and made it myself. I think, I did pretty well.
