Potemkin, Boris (1933-1978) Russia

In his spare time, he wrote poems and set some of them to music. After several of his songs had become known and he had been discharged from the institute, he performed as an artist himself, among others under the patronage of the Leningrad Philharmonic.
He wrote the song "Our Neighbor" in 1965, which became very popular at home and abroad in the following years. The song first became famous through the well-known Soviet singer Edita Piekha. It is still very popular today. In 2012, the Italian DJs Gary Kaos and Rico Bernasconi released a single with a cover version of the song "Our Neighbor" with singer In-Grid as the interpreter.
