Former lead singer of the Mirage group, popular in the 90s, Svetlana Razina, in the RTVI TV channel program “Legend”, sharply criticized concerts held in the special military operation zone. The singer noted that she was offered to perform in front of the North Military District soldiers, but she refused.
“Not because I’m afraid to go to the front and risk my life. Going there to sing songs is not heroism. “Oh, a bomb will land there!” – it can land anywhere, in Moscow and in Shchelkovo, what is the connection, what is the heroism? They will stick their heads out with guns, and you will turn around in front of them? No, this is not heroism, girls, this is nonsense! Someone came up with the idea that this is heroism,” Razina is sure.
The singer believes that you should go to the front with a gun, and not with a guitar, military operations are not a place where you need songs and dances, you can listen to the radio there, and “the soldiers themselves sing well with a guitar.”
“This immediately looks like a corporate event,” concluded Razina.
Svetlana Razina became the lead singer of the Mirage group in 1987, performing with Natalia Gulkina. Razina wrote the songs “New Hero”, “I’m Not Joking”, “Where Am I”, “Milky Way” for the group. In mid-1988, she left the group, founding a new project, “Fairy”. In 2009, Razina’s book “Music Connected Us” was published. All the secrets of Mirage.” The book contains memories and unknown details of the group’s past, as well as poems by Svetlana Razina. At the beginning of 2011, Razina returned to Mirage as a soloist in a duet with Margarita Sukhankina. As part of the group, she took part in several concerts, and in December of the same year she left Mirage again.
