Chto ty delayesh s nami, khokkey?!?
This bard song (its name could be translated as "What are you doing to us, hockey?!?") was designed as a tribute not only to ice hockey in Togliatti, but as one to the ice hockey in general, complementing the famous "Trus ne igraet v khokkey". It was composed by Lev Vaynshtein, VAZ veteran, author of several bard songs about Togliatti. As a tribute to its now deceased author, the song became an obligatory final theme for every home game of Lada.

Вот и этот закончился матч - Засыпает ледовый дворец, Острых лезвий хоккейных коньков Спят погасшие окна домов И вперёд, и сам чёрт нам - не брат! |
That's all, that game is over as well - Ice palace sleeps in peace, Sharp blades of hockey skates The dark houses' windows are sleeping Go ahead, no devil could stop us! |

Nasha "Lada"!
This rhythmic song of Sergei Pitertsev become very popular between Lada fans. It often could be heard when situation on ice is near critical; and it is believed to give hockey players that little bit which separates them from scoring one more goal. One could call it the true anthem of "Lada", despite some lack of formal logic – its name (lit. "Our Lada") proves this fact quite well.
