Vitas Sings Tibetan Plateau
You may know that such descriptions as “the last pure place and the most mysterious plateau” are about the Tibetan Plateau. But surely, you do not know that a foreign singer has ever sung the song entitled Tibetan Plateau in Chinese following Li Na(李娜) and Han Hong(韩红) . It is Vistas. His MV is extremely popular on the Internet.
The MV begins with the appearance of Vistas’ face, showing his affectionate eyes. Then his soft singing is accompanied by music, with a series of pictures as the background, showing white clouds, snowy mountains, clear lakes, and flying hawks. But upon careful examination, you will find that, in spite of the beautiful scenery of the Tibetan Plateau, Vistas is singing not on the Plateau, but on a large open plain. It turns out that the pictures are actually taken from several movies about the Tibetan Plateau.
Vitas has made great efforts to win his Chinese fans by singing in Chinese. But some sounds are a little bit strange. After all, he is just a beginner. On the MV, he looks a little nervous, which is rare to a skillful singer like him.
Many fans like to hear him sing. But some people say frankly, “Vistas has been skillful at make-up and propaganda since his first performance. At first, he claimed that he was a man from outer space with gill, who lived in a large goldfish bowl. He also said that he would never have interviews with journalists and would separate himself away from his fans. Now, with the decline of his popularity, he has got the strange idea of singing in Chinese.”(www.nmet168.com)

俄歌唱家VAS演唱《青藏高原》
“地球上最后一方净土，世界上最神秘的高原……”你或许能想像得到，这句话说的就是青藏高原。但你肯定想不到，在李娜和韩红之后，哪个外国歌手又唱起了《青藏高原》这首难度颇高的歌。他就是Vitas。这首MV一上网，便火得一塌糊涂。
MV的开头便是Vitas的脸部特写，眼神充满脉脉深意，随后他的轻声吟唱伴着音乐响起，画面则是一幕幕青藏高原上的美丽风光：白云、雪山、清澈的湖水、飞翔的雄鹰……不过，如果你稍加注意，就会发现虽然MV中90%以上都是青藏高原的美景风光，但当出现Vitas演唱的画面时，他却并非身处西藏，而是站在一片开阔的青葱草原上，一看就不是高原的草场。原来里面的西藏画面是剪辑了几部有关西藏的电影的一些镜头。
Vitas如此努力，用汉语演唱讨好中国歌迷，但他的某些发音还是令人稍感古怪。毕竟是初学者，一向在舞台上挥洒自如的高音王子，在这部MV中难得一见地显出了紧张，并露出了不少奇怪的口音。
有很多歌迷很喜欢他的演唱。但也有网友不客气地指出：“Vitas自从出道以来，就一直很善于包装和炒作。先是装神秘，说是什么外星人，长着腮，住在大鱼缸里。还说他永远不接受采访，远离歌迷。现在觉得人气下滑了，就再出奇招，来唱中文歌了。”
