The performance was prepared by the vocal studio “Comilfo” from Volgograd under the direction of Anastasia Serebryakova. In the song, the children sing that when the Internet is turned off, “there are no blogs, no channels,” and also emphasize that in this case there is more time left for live communication and games, but they call it a “terrible dream.”
“We're playing badminton – what's this creepy dream?” – is sung in songs.
The text also states that “phones are of no use” and “blue light from the monitor does not spoil” children’s lunch.
“We don’t want, we don’t want – You won’t catch the net. We don’t sit, we don’t sit on your Internet. We don’t want, we don’t want, We don’t sit, we don’t sit. We announce the year – everything is the other way around,” sounds in the chorus.
In addition, the song states that you shouldn’t worry about unlearned lessons or missed classes, because “in reality, it’s more fun to see friends around.”
“Layout” indicates that the studio “Come il faut” is based in the municipal budget leisure complex “21st century” in Volgograd, the founder of which is the city administration.
Context
On November 1, 2019, the law came into force in the Russian Federation which assumes the operation of the Russian segment of the Internet without a connection to the World Wide Web, offline (sovereign RuNet). The document obliges Internet providers to install technical means provided by Roskomnadzor, which, if the Russian segment is isolated from the worldwide network, will allow the agency to centrally manage the network.
From October 20, 2025 in the Russian Federation began to restrict WhatsApp and Telegram. Russians have repeatedly complained en masse about disruptions in work. The media reported that the authorities in the Russian Federation want to launch Telegram (Max service) – a state version of Telegram with censorship and surveillance.
On November 13, the Foreign Intelligence Service reported that conditions were being created in Russia to isolate the Russian segment of the Internet.
At the end of 2025, the Russian Federation took first place in the world in Internet shutdowns, reported the Center for Combating Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, citing data from monitoring services.
In Moscow, starting from March 3, 2026, massive problems with communication and mobile Internet. Muscovites cannot call or pay with cards. In some areas there is not only no Internet, but also mobile communications.
