Surprisingly I am the weird one who came across this song. I am a Malaysia chinese. I being inspired by the music performed by the orchestra group named Cinema, I think. From there I thought of finding out what's or how the original version going to be liked and ended here. The powerful of music is beyond the understanding of the particular language. And is quite sorry to know that the main person of this rock band has passed away by car accident long time ago. From the tune and the music I got such feeling of Tsoi is an anti-war person, who well earned my so much.
My family is Ukrainian Canadian. The Ukrainian we speak in Canada is an old Ukrainian language. Much of it is unknown to Ukrainians in Ukraine today unless you lived over 100+ years ago. Same with my dads family from Newfoundland Canada which has accents that date back 200 years ago of English, Scottish and Most of all Irish
Long live Tsoi, Georgi, Yegor Letov, Yanka, Sektor Gaza and everybody else, I love Russia, would love to go on vacation when the peace comes back, btw I'm a politics scholar from Belgium with Moroccan roots, listening to Russian music istead of of Raï, for a lot of people these guys were some kind of sense of free freedom for the people in Soviet Russia and Siberia. I play guitar, I love playing songs of Kino, GrOB, Egor Letov. Last one was Gruppa Krovi and it's bass lines too. I'm conteplating creating a channel and make vids since I play for 15+ years. Got all equipment but kinda nervenous, stuff is tense here if people think you're a sympitiser of Russia, you'll be an outcast, our get legal ttouble. But I don't care really... But still do... But I have multiple Tshirts of Letov, Viktor Tsoi, and to be honest one of Lenin on his propagenda, and I wear them and notice people looking dirty to me. And I'm a very very light skinned Morrocan, might get mistaken for a an eastern. european. Free Palestine t shirts are forbidden, you get fined and some people get kicked out of places for just a shirt. I wear them (The russian shirts I mean) as a statement that I am not a sheep like them, with Tsoi on it, Letov on it and Lenin on it, I Do not openly support palestine because I live in a concervative neighbourhood, might get attacked or worse... lots of racists here, but these shirts have meaning, one says Hochu Peremen (we want change) the letov one says (Everything is going according to plan in crylic). We want change, that carries a lot of weight then you realize, it's not a simple statement looking at everything as is really is. Philosophilcal. I'm sorry for thr tangent, I smoke a joint sometime to relax and I get philosophical, all we want is everybody to get along or at least show respect to each other. These last words... I sound like my mother haha, she raised me the best she could, and I know she's a great mother, she knows I would give her my kidney if she ever needed one. This is a stoned philosophic dude talking, but it's true, wewant change, we need change. I hope for change. But this is reality and there will always be twisted dictators no matte if's the year 3000... Well... all i can say, peace upon you my friends, we say Assalamu Aleykum that's the word and meaning, you learned something today if you read this far. Peace upon you❤
Shout out to Maris, my good friend from Latvia 🇱🇻, who first introduced me to Kino through this song. All those years ago. Thank you my friend. I miss you dearly. Here is one forever and always until we meet again. 🚬
Quite a fascinating piece! I'm just learning about the Soviet-era underground and punk music scene, and I can definitely see why this song was/is a hit- the lyrics are simple, elegant, and profoundly "feelable", even through a layer of translation. Idioms, expressions and puns are some of the hardest things to translate between languages- they often simply don't work at all, and can only be extrapolated or expressed by example. You did a great job getting both the feeling and the meaning across (to my ignorant ears, that's for sure!) so thank you for that!!
No matter what governments say, I love Russia, its culture and its language. West has been very unfair to Russia since ever, and what we are living today will make the gap among us even bigger, that's sad. Screw the governments, politics and economical interests, we the people shall understand each other and appreciate our cultures. Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
People who think for themselves, read books about history, and do not allow themselves to be brainwashed by corrupt western media feel the same. I m behind Russia! Greetings from Netherlands
The West isn't unfair to the Russian people, they are completely fair to the corrupt, war-mongering government. Those greedy bastards, and Putin just want total control over the people, the nation, everything. He is a deranged sick man, and anyone who says otherwise is either misinformed, or is an idiot.
Mancunian brit aged 23 here, always admired the Russian people since I was a child and I saw St. Basil's Cathedral in school for the first time. It kicked off a lifelong obsession with Russia, its culture, history and people. I'm currently learning how to speak the language with the hopes I can move there one day. Not all westerners hate Russia, in fact quite a lot of us admire you very much😌
Thanks for this heavenly music. There are some typos in both English and Russian, hope you can correct them to properly render hommage and pay heed to this great song.
You can probably use "forth" instead of forward I actually find Russian translates better into more archaic English which has a slightly different syntax
Russian is a weird language, but I came here cause my RU-vidr and online English teacher that I love came from Russian, she's name Marina, and also interested when she was singing the song in Russian umm the title is (Золотистый локон).
Ya sizhu i smotryu v chuzhoe nebo iz chuzhogo okna I ne vizhu ni odnoy znakomoy zvezdy. Ya khodil po vsem dorogam i tuda, i syuda, Obernulsya - i ne smog razglyadet' sledy. No esli est' v karmane pachka sigaret, Znachit vse ne tak uzh plokho na segodnyashniy den'. I bilet na samolet s serebristym krylom, Chto, vzletaya, ostavlyaet zemle lish' ten'. I nikto ne khotel byt' vinovatym bez vina, I nikto ne khotel rukami zhar zagrebat', A bez muzyki na miru smert' ne krasna, A bez muzyki ne khochetsya propadat'. No esli est' v karmane pachka sigaret, Znachit vse ne tak uzh plokho na segodnyashniy den'. I bilet na samolet s serebristym krylom, Chto, vzletaya, ostavlyaet zemle lish' ten'.
I’m a political science student, I know this band from my Russian's policy teacher, I fell in love with Slavic languages and it’s depressing vibes that surrounds it’s people, then the Russo-Ukrainian war started, I have to dig deep into the political shit, learning theory about political maneuvering in this war, when I listen to this band after the war, it makes me feel guilty as hell, I become just a spectator of this war learning soulless political facts when people are dying, it’s almost feel like I’ve lost contact with humanity and it’s suffering, thanks to Victor Tsoi for making me remains intact with humanity. Political, War, nothing is real but suffering, sometimes facts is utterly bullshit and the truth lies still, crying and in pain in one’s heart. Peace to us all.
@snab032 no matter what reason, to call for war and send hundred of thousands ppl to the war zones is unforgivable. If the person who called for war needs to go together with the entire troops together staying at the front line till finished, I assured you no 1 dared to call for war in the future anymore.
I'm learning Russian because despite all the negativity that is placed on Russia, i love the country. When I hear the music and read the lyrics it inspires me to get through everyday no matter what.
@@DanielRowlands1 yea, i think it’s because Russians have always been depicted as the bad guys in the media. I’m Spanish American, bilingual. I Just wanted a third language and a chance to explore a new culture.
@@jaredmatute9188 Fuck them man, they're closed-minded. It's admirable to expand your mind beyond your own culture. Plus, some of the greatest thinkers and writers to ever exist were Russian.
