"'ResuRection'" (, , ) is a song by Russian trance group PPK. It was released in 2001 as the lead single from their debut album 'Reload'. The melody is based on the original melody "La mort du hros" ("Death of the hero") written by Eduard Artemyev for the 1979 Russian (Soviet) movie Siberiade.
The song was the first by a Russian act to enter the top 10 of the UK Singles Chart, where it peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart in December 2001 and the song was awarded a silver certification by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) for sales of over 200,000 copies. Elsewhere, the song reached the top 10 in Flanders, Ireland, and the Netherlands while also charting in Australia, Finland, and Wallonia. In the United States, the song peaked at number 26 on the 'Billboard' Dance Club Songs chart. In 2021, the song was ranked number 70 in 'A State of Trance's "Trance Top 1000" list.
Paul Oakenfold signed the record to his label Perfecto Records upon hearing it when he was playing a set at Gorky Park in Moscow. During an episode of his 'Planet Perfecto Podcast' in January 2021, Oakenfold revealed that PPK handed him the record, which he listened to on his headphones, and signed the record immediately.
