After two years, the child of indie rock changes the composition of the group. And already with new musicians, Zemfira's new albums were recorded. Fourteen Weeks of Silence was released in 2002.

Other songs are light and unobtrusive. Many listeners hastened to classify them as "passing" - at the expense of previous masterpieces. However, it is precisely with their transparency and soft tonality that the compositions attract like a magnet.listener, magically making him drink the album to the last drop.

Based on the meaning of the songs that were included in this collection, most people put forward a verdict: “She is leaving. Forever and ever". And how else can you explain the words of the hits, the meaning of which was to say goodbye, parting, separation?

The long-awaited new album

To tell the truth, in relation to Zemfira, people have always had this crazy jealous feeling, which happens only to close people.

Therefore, perhaps, this singer, with her amazing voice and laconic, but sharp statements to critics, won the hearts of millions.
