Of course, officially declared good intentions to find talented young shoots and pull her into the limelight of show business. But in reality, the situation was somewhat different: more or less disadvantaged and hearing the voice of young people made popular by daily stay on the air, and after the show earned this brief popularity at the expense of countless concert tours "through the towns and villages." When there is an exception to this rule, that is, there were really talented and original artists, it is an even greater extent emphasize the general idea of ​​the project.
