    THANK YOU JOHN!!!! Man, how Serge can be so chill in this video is mindblowing. I hope he, his wife, and kids and all of his their families, the band and all of their families are safe as well as all Ukrainians, and Russians are also safe, because many Russians are not behind this attack and war on Ukraine, and they are also being victimized by Putin and his cronies.
    This is a situation that I never thought would happen again. I'm sure there are many people who thought the same. Such a sad situation.
    Keep Safe Serge,
    Matt - Toronto, Canada

      Were you also upset , Matt , when the bombs of Canada and the USA and NATO destroyed the civilian population of Yugoslavia , Iraq , Afghanistan , Syria , Libya ? You live in an information vacuum created by your media and know absolutely nothing about WHY Russia has launched military operations .

    Thank you for sharing this interview with Serge. I discovered Leonid & Friends a couple of years ago, and was astonished with his incredible voice, and the bands musicianship. I hope and pray for him and his family, and all of Ukraine. I gathered from what he said that the best thing for him is to keep busy making music. I wish him the best, and pray he stays safe.☮️💙

    Serge Years ago in the early to mid 90's a Christian Outreach Group of Churches sponsored several Ukrainian Families to come live in my small to Medium sized 🏙️ City in the Southeastern US A young couple then in their 20's lived in the Apartment behind me and their parents lived in a Unit Downstairs! They were wonderful people! Their then young son I called Sweet Baby James! After James Taylor! He's all grown up now! In my Hometown they have painted all the Fire Hydrants Blue 🔵 and Yellow in support of Ukraine! You are extremely brave and your voice is missed! Prayers for you your family and all of you guys in Ukraine Peace and stay safe!

  • @dannyray8188
    @dannyray8188 2 года назад +28

    So love your voice Serge. You sound a lot like Peter Cetera but BETTER!!! That whole group of Leonid and Friends has had me glued to the music every day since I found it on RUclips a year ago. I have been praying for the group and Ukraine daily (several times in fact). I so hope you are reunited with your family somehow as I am sure you are worried about them even though they are in Poland. Please be careful. I would be devastated if any harm should come to you. You are so very special as is all the members of your friends. Danny - USA - Atlanta, Ga.

    • @saturnnet1627

I agree with you 100% on how much I miss his vocals and all of the instrumental work he did as well. Definitely, one of the best tenor vocalists in the realm of rock, pop, jazz, etc.

    A truly amazing vocalist... I got to see in concert a few years ago... One of the things I really admired about Leonid & Friends was they have Ukrainians in their group, music is the uniter. I have visited Ukraine as a tourist, beautiful place, lovely people. I hope my country doesn't let Ukraine down, and we help make sure they are a free country.

    @rickpratchett2986 6 месяцев назад

    This right here is a powerful interview! Often wars far away from us seem unconnected to our lives in peaceful countries. However, as we have a strong emotional connection to Serge and the Leonid and Friends band through their awesome music, the Ukraine war becomes very personal for us. This is good though, as it inspires more and more of us in the West to shout as one the words "Slava Ukraini!" and urge our leaders to send more help to Ukraine.

    Serge I prayed when this whole thing began. I too am also a musician. I played bass on a recording here in Nashville, Tn. with a rock band in July 1967. One of my favorite Rock groups is Chicago. I've listened to your bands covering a lot of their songs. You guys are very good. Both you and the band and your families come on and live in Nashville.. You know were Music City U.S.A. Also the young lady singer is very beautiful. We would love to have Ya'll.

I look forward to the day when we can all be together again enjoying their music and Serge's talents. In the meantime, I look back to L&F show that I enjoyed in Salisbury MA, and what Chicago wrote for Lyrics for "It Better End Soon (2nd Movement)" to verbalize what we are all thinking.
