Last month, Russia’s Sergey Lazarev promised that he would be releasing singles from his upcoming album every few weeks. Here is the second single he has released, Sdavaysya (Surrender).

Sdavaysya is described by Sergey himself as being “incredibly powerful and emotional“. It is more fitting with the style for which his fans know and love him than his previous single, Tak krasivo.

Sdavaysya has a modern edge and leans more towards the rock end of the pop spectrum. It even features a classic Eurovision key change!

Sergey Lazarev plans on releasing his new album gradually, track by track, at 3-4 week intervals.
