WH: Thank you, Sasha.
MH: Sasha, for sure, you life has changed after Eurovision, after your victory, everybody knows you, absolutely, you are the image of Norwegian tourism in Russia, Fairytale sounds from everywhere. But doesnt it upset you that you are known only by this song?
AR: It is called a HIT!
MH: Yes, absolutely.
AR: Its the biggest dream of a composer to write a hit.
WH: And of a performer? Your biggest dream has come true, hasnt it?
AR: Yes. As an artist yes. I dont think that there will be more of popularity than it is now.
MH: Actually, Sasha has many beautiful songs. Ive been listening to your album. Dolphin, Funny little world, 13 horses they are very nice lyrical songs.
AR: So, you like ballads?
MH: There is one more song that has been discussed in Russia Abandoned.
AR: Yes, its built up upon a Russian song.
MH: Because it is similar with a song from a cult movie
AR: Its not a similar with, its what it is.
MH: Its what it is from We'll Live Till Monday. There were attempts to make a scandal out of it in here. Have you got some claims? How has this story got finished?
AR: Its just a song which is on the cover of a disc Ah! Here it is! (the original Russian version of Abandoned is playing) Its written on a cover of the disc in Norway that its a Russian song translated into English language.
MH: So, you like the songs from those years like Old maple and this one Cranes song.
AR: Yes, and I hope that it is a pleasure for them (authors, probably).
MH: No, its a pleasure for all of us! Ive been listening to it in my car and thinking OMG, where does he know this song from - he even was not born then yet?
AR: But I just only know old Russian movies, old songs because I left Belarus when I was 5 years old, in 1991. And the only things I know of Russian culture are those which mama and papa have been showing me when we have been in Norway already.
MH: He left then but he almost came back now.
AR: You can say so, yes.
WH: You come to Moscow so often; dont you want to buy a house in Russia?
AR: I like hotels.
WH: Alexander before you came to our studio we caught you having a breakfast. You were eating pelmeni. Im sorry but we are just in the know.
MH: Well, he likes pelmeni, so what?
WH: We have heard that you order pelmeni every time you come here. Doesnt your mama cook it there, she probably knows how to.
AR: In Moscow?
WH: No, there where you live, in Norway.
AR: Ah! In Moscow (laughs) No, in Norway there is another food. And when Im in Russia I want to eat real Russian pelmeni. And we have almost nothing left of Russian cooking (dishes) there.
WH: And your mama does not cook anything of it?
AR: Sometimes kolduni. But it is a Belarusian dish.
MH: Its Belarusian.
AR: Yes. I like it very much. And usually we eat taco, pizza everything Scandinavian.
WH: I wanted. Do you realize it how is it for many girls who are really going crazy now? Really going crazy. In every mobile phone Many have bookmarks with your picture on it in their books. And suddenly they have got to know that you perhaps have got a girlfriend. Is it true? Thats it?
MH: Dont make girls and Nastya disappointed.
AR: Well, somebody says that I have a girlfriend, somebody says that I dont. I dont know whom to trust.
WH: And what do you say?
AR: Well, I have sometimes.
MH: Alexander, thats unexpected. (laugh)
AR: So, I have a dream to find a girl who is a musician too.
AR: Its always better not to fight, but the most important is that we would be able if to continue this performing life that we could go together on tours.
WH: Sasha, play something, please.
AR: Well, what to play?
*Plays violin
