Anyone here ever heard of a band in the 80's called Gorky Park?

They are Russian!

This song was their main hit, don't remember if they had any others.

Which is why most non American bands who want to make it big sing in English. Most school aged kids around the world is basically forced to learn English. Because music in their native languages will basically only get them fans of their native countries. People that sing in English, get fans from all over the world.

Sad fact of language in America(in my opinion): I think non American bands who sing in English speak much better English, than people who immigrate to America. If you've ever been called by a creditor or telemarketer in America, what is the average % that the person on the other end had such a thick accent, that you found it difficult to understand?

So kudos to bands around the world for taking the time do it well!

Russian is a great language for Heavy Metal.

I cant understand a word, but the words have some great sounds you really get your teeth into.

George can often be found playing electric stringy things, and singing... [url=https://soundcloud.com/george-williams-8]and then this happens[/url]

Sounds fantastic as always, Igor. One big advantage with singing in English is because of its huge word supply, there are lots of synonyms and it is more easy to rhyme in English than most other languages.
