Songs (based on materials from the program Chronicle. Chizh and Co. About Love)
- “Door to the Summer” (I) - in the original by Sergey Kochergi, the lyrics to the song went inextricably. Here Sergey Chigrakov increased the distance between them.
- “The wind pulls out of the hands” (Last money) - written by Sergey Chigrakov. Initially, it had a more rock and roll arrangement.
- “Soldier at Halt” - the song was written by Alexei Khrynov in about 1987-1988. It was also performed in the ranks of the Khrynovka group “ Colonel and Fellow Soldiers”, of which Chigrakov was a member.
- “OK” - the song was written by Sergei Chigrakov during his military service (1984-85). The song sings about the city of Ventspils , in which "Chizh" served in the military.
- “I called you from a pay phone ...” - a romance dedicated to Maxim Lando (director of the Aquarium group ). It was written in order to show Lando that Chigrakov can also write romances.
- “Walking in Odessa” - a song written by Igor Gankevich and performed by him in the ranks of his group “ Bastion ”. The first time sounded at the Podolsk rock festival . Dedicated to the hometown of Gankevich and the "Bastion" - Odessa . The original text differs only in a few words and their sequence, and Chigrakov’s arrangement was slightly expanded due to the accordion and piano solo.
- “Mom” - the song was written by Eugene Varva, a colleague of Chigrakov in the group “ Different People ”. Previously performed by Chigrakov at a number of apartment concerts, the most famous of which is the Session in St. Petersburg, dating from 1990 .

Additional Facts
- The author of the song “About Love” is not Sergei Chigrakov, as many believe, but Oleg Tarasov [1] .
- Framing the album in two parts of the song “Door to Summer” is an explicit reference to Pink Floyd's Animals album , at the beginning and at the end of which are placed two parts of Pigs on the Wing . The song " Siskin " echoes the creation of Pink Floyd, not only in form, but also in arrangement and partly in content.
