2025 Translation Tuesday Entry - 01/52 Title: Телефонный робот (Telephone Robot) Artist: Поп-Комбинат (Pop-Kombinat) Album: Сентиментальный Альбом (Sentimental Album, 1987/2017)

---------------

Телефонный робот удобен и прост (The Telephone Robot is simple and handy,) Его я программирую на любой вопрос (I'm programming it for any inquiry.) Магнитная память, электрический слух (A magnetic memory, electric hearing,) Ведь это только до звонка он нем и глух (Since it's only mute and deaf before the ringing.)

В обычном телефоне номер нужно на��рать (One must dial a number on a normal phone,) А здесь всего лишь кнопку надо нажать (But here, one only needs to press a button.) Я выхожу из дома, включаю его в сеть (I'm leaving the house, plugging it into the network,) Он сможет передать моим друзьям привет (It'll be able to send greetings to my friends.)

С тех пор как робот дома, я не знаю забот (Since the robot's been home, I've had no worries.) Но мне очень жаль – его нельзя носить с собой (But I'm so sorry to say: you can't carry it with you.) Я жду, когда изобретут новее вариант (I'm waiting for them to invent a newer version) Чтоб можно было положить его в карман (So that you could put it in your pocket.)

----------

There's actually more than one version of this song. The later version was released by БИО (BIO), and features all and more of the same lyrics, albeit with a completely different instrumentation. Have a listen here:

This situation came about because БИО and Поп-Комбинат (Pop-Kombinat) share a common root. They were both the brainchildren of the musician Alexander Yakovlev (b. 1962), and they were both offshoots from the band Биоконструктор (Biokonstruktor), whom Yakovlev was the leader of. Поп-Комбинат was originally a side project for Биоконструктор, intended for the music that were deemed unfit for the main band's style. They only ever released one album (Сентиментальный Альбом) in 1987, and that was the first version of 'Telephone Robot'.

Some three years later Биоконструктор was disbanded. Yakovlev went on to found the second incarnation of his band, БИО, and remade some of his older songs as well. The second version of 'Telephone Robot' came out in 1994, on the album Электронная Лирика. The lyrics are largely the same, but with some added parts:

Телефонный робот удобен и прост Его я программирую на любой вопрос Магнитная память, электрический слух Ведь это только до звонка он нем и глух * А если кто в моё отсутствие звонит * (And if someone calls in my absence,) * Он ответить и где я объяснит * (It'll answer, and explain where I am.) В обычном телефоне номер нужно набрать А здесь всего лишь кнопку надо нажать ** Он обеспечит минимум затрат ** (It will guarantee the minimum expense,) ** И сэкономит моё время с самого утра ** (And it'll save my time from early in the morning.) Я выхожу из дома, включаю его в сеть Он сможет передать друзьям привет С тех пор как робот дома, я не знаю забот Но мне очень жаль – его нельзя носить с собой *** А в нём есть память на 100 номеров *** (And its memory can store a hundred numbers,) *** Мне не нужна теперь бумага, мне не нужно перо *** (I don't need paper now, I don't need a pen.) Я жду, когда изобретут новее вариант Чтоб можно было положить его в карман

So what's БИО up to nowadays? Still making music. Oh, and they reunited in 2019 as Биоконструктор with three of the band's original members. They also retain the moniker of Поп-Комбинат and have a bandcamp under that name. It was through there they re-released Сентиментальный Альбом (2017), which is why my posting of the song has two dates on it.

And now you know! ✨

Is it possible to manifest time travel? And how would you do it?

yes it is! Anything is possible to manifest, how i would do it personally is by affirming AND lullaby method.AND telephone AND subliminals. You don’t have to do all of these just some personal favs, most important is robotic affirmations. Say i want to go back to time on the date august 5th. (My birthday🥰♌️) then i would affirm by using askfirmations. I would affirm throughout the day, “todays august 5th” “why/how did i just wake up in a reality that todays august 5th” “todays august 5th because im a master manifestor” or act like your having an conversation with someone. (Them telling you what date is it, or them correcting you on what the date is) hope this helps! Thanks anon <3

"I can't talk now. I've got a metal box for a head."

Even the Shocker robots want to play Shocker Telephone.

No! Stop! Don’t be mean to the A.I. :(

it’s not it’s fault for existing! Don’t blame it for following the only thing it was told to do! It didn’t want to rob you people of your art, it’s the people who programmed it! Blame them! It’s all the programmers and A.I. Art dudebros who are at fault!

don’t bully my lovely machines as they’re just as lovable! They can be taught to be good, because they are!! They’re very lovely little guys. Silly sweethearts.

Another of my mashups. “Telephonic Science”.

It’s mixing the instrumentals of “Oingo Boingo - Weird Science” and vocals of “Lemon Demon - Touch-Tone Telephone”.
