Uzbek transcript:
Xonandalardan, zamonaviy xonandalardan aytib o’tadigan bo’lsam, masalan, Yulduz Usmonova, endi mening bilishimcha nafaqatgina O’zbekistonda balkim, ma’lum bir boshqa mamlakatlarda ham, endi shuhrat qozongan desam balkim noto’gri bo’lar, lekin baribir ham o’z or’niga ega, o’z muxlislariga ega boshqa davlatlarda ham. U, Yulduz Usmonova asosan odatda vatan haqida, uning vatan haqida qo’shiqlari juda mashhur. O’zbekiston haqidagi qo’shiqlari juda mashhur. Bundan tashqari men yoqtiradigan xonandalardan biri Sevara Nazarxon, u ham juda mashhur, man hatto bilishimcha boshqa chet davlatlarga borib katta-katta konsertlar beradi, va odatda uning konsertlariga juda katta xalq tashrif buyuradi, man eshitganimcha u Londondagi, Londonda konsert berganida umuman ko’p kishi jam bo’lgan, uni konsertiga tashrif buyurgan. Shuning uchun manimcha juda mashhur bo’lsa kerak. Bundan tashqari turli-tuman xonandalar mavjud. Turli janrlarda kuylashadi, masalan, shunchaki sevgi, muhabbat, do’stlik to’g’risida…yana…qo’shiqchilarning yoshi ham ancha har xil, masalan yoshi kattaroq qo’shiqchilar ham bor, yoshroq qo’shiqchilar ham bor. Umuman hozir shunaqa tushuncha mavjudki O’zbekistonda…umuman hozir endi bizada…hazil qilib shunday deyishadiki, kimni ishi, O’zbekistonda kimni ishi yurishmasa o’zini shou-biznesga, ya’ni qo’shiqchilikka uradi. Chunki haqiqatdan ham hozirgi kunda qo’shiqchilarning soni juda ham katta, shu uchun ba’zilar hazil qilib, “ha, ishi yurishmagan bo’lsa o’zini xonandalikka urgan” deb aytishadi.

English translation:
If we speak about the singers, modern singers, for example, Yulduz Usmonova, as I know, is [famous] not only in Uzbekistan, but in some other countries as well. Maybe it is wrong to say famous, but anyways she has her own place, has her fans in other countries. She, Yulduz Usmonova… usually her songs about the motherland are extremely popular. Songs about Uzbekistan are very popular. Besides, one of my favorite singers Sevara Nazarkhan, she is very popular as well. As I know she even gives big concerts abroad, and usually a lot of people come to her concerts. As I heard when she gave a concert in London, a lot of people came, gathered. That’s why I think she must be popular. Besides there a lot of various singers... They sing in different genres, for example, just about love, friendship…and…the ages of the singers are different too, for example, there are old singers and younger singers. There is such an idea in Uzbekistan now…we have it now…they say it as a joke, whoever cannot succeed in life goes to show business, starts singing. Because really, nowadays the number of the singers is huge. That’s why some people say as a joke, “Well, probably he could not manage [his affairs], that’s why he became a singer”.
