"Russian Ballet" is a song by Magic Eight Ball released as a digital single in support of their debut album Sorry We're Late But We're Worth The Wait. It contains an acoustic version of the band's song "Big Star" on the B-side.

Music video

A music video directed by Emil Kunda & Baz Francis was released for the single.

The song is actually about my wonderful first trip to St. Petersburg in 2010, but I wanted the video to tell a dramatised version of what happened on my nightmare return the following year. I actually think the positivity of the song and negativity of the video combine really well and help create an overall picture of my Russian experiences. Emil's great work has a lot to do with that though.
