Copyvio? edit

When was the song first published? --Damian Yerrick () 02:42, 16 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I believe it qualifies as {{soviet-PD}} --Ghirla -трёп- 13:24, 16 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
{{PD-USSR}} is disputed on grounds that works first published in the USSR are considered simultaneously first published in all successor states, including Republic of Georgia, which went on to enact a copyright restoration and term extension. In 1996, the Uruguay Round Agreements Act granted reciprocal restoration of U.S. copyright to works first published in states that had joined Berne between publication and accession. The dispute starts in Template_talk:PD-USSR and continues in commons:Template talk:PD-Soviet. But even beyond the copyright implications, the publication date is still important to the article. --Damian Yerrick () 18:48, 16 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
{{PD-USSR}} now redirects to {{copyvio}} per discussion in Template talk:PD-USSR. I deleted the lyrics. --Damian Yerrick () 03:46, 22 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

More countries edit

In Swedish, the song is titled En natt i Moskva (or sometimes Midnatt i Moskva), made famous by sv:Jan Höiland in 1962. --LA2 (talk) 21:59, 1 February 2008 (UTC)Reply


Use as an interval signal on Voice of Russia/Radio Moscow edit

Almost continuous, especially on Radio Moscow World Service from its inception in late 1970s. From my own monitoring, I reckon that started in 1978, though it may have been 1979.

More sections needed edit

The introductory section contains several topics:

the composition history of the song
the domestic and international success of the song
cover versions
the place of the song in Soviet culture
the song in American popular culture

I think it would help readers if some of these topics were given their own section. I will make an initial arrangement. Wordwright (talk) 22:54, 23 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Anything amiss with the Russian in "Composition and initial success"? edit

In that section we find:

In 1956, Podmoskovnye Vechera was recorded by Vladimir Troshin, a young actor of the Moscow Art Theatre, for a scene in a documentary about the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic's athletic competition Spartakiad in which the athletes rest in Podmoskovye, the Moscow suburbs.

In the title of the song the word is "Podmoskovnye" with an "n," in the identification of the place it is "Podmoskovye" without an "n." Is this correct? Or is the latter a typo? I invite anyone who speaks Russian to correct it or indicate here that it is correct. Thanks! Wordwright (talk) 06:27, 25 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Not A Suburb edit

Yeah. That. Podmoskovye refers to Moscow Oblast. An Oblast is not a suburb, it's a administrative region. 31.209.55.247 (talk) 13:10, 7 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
