I love you to tears

Lyrics by I. Nikolaev

Music by I. Krutoy

Performer A. Serov

1994

I love you to tears
Every breath is like the first time
Instead of the lying beautiful flattery, a cloud of roses
With white rose petals I will cover our bed
I love you to tears, I love you madly

Your inviting white skin
The beauty of your divine hair
I admire you, you're all I care about
We've only just begun
I love you to tears

```

Dimash sang this song few times (backstage, warm-ups, parties).

Igor Krutoy shared that it was love at first sight for him.

The composer confessed that his wife inspired him to write songs more than once. He first revealed that soon after they met, he wrote the famous composition 'I love you to tears', which was then performed by Alexander Serov.

The meeting between Igor and Olga was fateful. It took place despite distance and many life circumstances. At the time of their meeting, in the early 1990s, Olga was married, raising her 10-year-old daughter Victoria and living in New York.

Igor, then already a successful but not widely known composer, was also not free, he had a girlfriend and a lot of baggage of past relationships under his belt. He married for the first time at the age of 25, and his son Nikolai was born, but a couple of years later the couple divorced. After that, for almost 10 years, Krutoy was in no hurry to tie the knot. And it is possible that Igor Yakovlevich would have been an enviable bachelor for a long time, if not for one day he went to the USA to present the show "Song of the Year".

This concert and the party afterwards in New York were the starting points of Olga and Igor's romance. According to Krutaya, she would not have wasted her time at these events if not for her friends - they persuaded her to go. Olga had no interest in Russian pop music and had no idea who Igor Krutoy was. They were introduced by their mutual friends, but there was no heart-to-heart and love at first sight that evening. The composer arrived at the party in the company of his girlfriend, her mother Svetlana and her sister Alla. Olga did not even pay much attention to him, but Igor, as it turned out later, did. Some time later he called her, inviting her to a meeting.

They met, talked, fell in love, and a month later Olga received a marriage proposal. But their story does not end there with the phrase "and they lived happily ever after". It took Olga a while to get a divorce. All this time she and Igor have been on different ends of the world - he in Moscow and she in New York - trying to visit each other whenever possible. The test of distance is still with them - still living in different countries, they continue to fly to each other, and spend time in one house and in another. But their feelings are not affected - apparently, true love is not afraid of thousands of kilometres and separation. Igor confirms this as well:

Despite not quite normal life in two countries, there is an unbreakable inner connection between us, which neither the ocean nor the eight-hour time difference can break.

Many have enthusiastic memories of the beginning of their affair. Igor Nikolaev says that the feelings were very strong. When he first saw the composer after his meeting with Olga, he immediately realised that his friend had fallen deeply and unconditionally in love. Krutoy's sister Alla also remembers that time. She told the magazine "Caravan Stories" the following:

It was a crazy, stunning romance, they fell in love with each other at first sight. Igor began to compose extraordinary songs. I remember my brother came to visit me in Philadelphia, sat down at the piano and began to play an unusually beautiful melody. I asked him: "What is it? What's it called?" He said, "It's called 'Olenka'..." The result was the song "I love you to tears..."

Igor wrote music for the famous song, which brought more than one woman of our country to tears when performed by Alexander Serov. And another Igor, Nikolaev, composed the lyrics, inspired by his friend's love story. Such an unusual musical gift delighted Olga and finally won her heart.
