The performance at the international competition of vocal performers “Golden Orpheus” in 1975 dramatically changed the life of the singer Alla Pugacheva. Appearing on the stage of the show with the song “Arlekino”, the artist made a splash and showed herself as an independent creative unit. Alla Borisovna believes that there were no equals to her in the mid-70s. Looseness and courage favorably distinguished her from other performers.
“I think that I appeared at such a time, just at the change of generations. Such luck happens once every 50 years. Undoubtedly, I was modest, beautiful and smart. Against the backdrop of tightness, I was quite relaxed. People needed me like a bird that flies, soars and you can’t put it in a cage. Some kind of symbol, probably, was all the same, ”the artist noted in an interview in 1998.
According to Pugacheva, at the beginning of her career, she was constantly in a state of struggle. Alla Borisovna fought with herself and the conventions that surrounded her. The vocalist was constantly pursued by failures, but she never got hung up on failures. Pugacheva sought to leave only positive things in her life. Mentally, she took an eraser and erased everything bad with it.
Talking regarding the secret of her own popularity, the prima donna of the national stage spoke regarding a special attitude towards the public. She needed the audience like air. Alla Pugacheva really wanted to be loved.
“I treated the public not just as a piece of bread that they give me, but as a necessary means of communication for myself. People were necessary as a breath of air, in life such a component in order for me to live at all. Singing for me and everything I do has never been work, but communication. Since it is difficult to communicate with people, but it is a great pleasure, I wanted to always like them as a woman and as a singer, so I did not stop there. I just lived with my people, ”said Alla Pugacheva.
