Dances on the Edge: Boris Grebenshikov, Aquarium (Аквариум)



Бли-ин,дружище,как я тебя понимаю!!!
Это прпосто великолепная музыка,которая передаёт ауру 80-х!!!




really sweet :D




I understand a little in Russian (ochen mali), but both of these songs were translated into English on the inner sleeve of the album.




one of the members is my uncle. so its quite funny for me to watch this.




Ain't nothing like that in the video. He's got a ponytail and what? Hold your horses making assumptions and conclusions.




Ja etu pesenku zaigryval do dyr na kassetnike Mayak-201 kazhdyj fevral' na 4-m etazhe obschagi #3 MIFI v Moskve :)

Spasibo!




This is greeeeeeeeat! Some of my favorite music and artists are in languages I don't understand one bit. Boris Grebenshikov, Kino, Cho Yong Pil, Juan Luis Guerra....




Леопольд!!!Спасибо гигантское!!!
Оффигительная вещь!!!Я просто заторчал и вспомнил молодость!




I can see your shore, but what is this shining in bushes
I've seen something similar in one of the video films.
I know your voice better than my own,
But I want to know "Who's talking to me"
I could remain alive
But that's not my inclination.
I could confess my love
But does it change anything?
And would you really want me to do it?

It's just our dance on the edge of spring.




интересно это 8 мм или 16




Ne delai shag nazad, Boris...




You're welcome iriauchi, hearing this music was an ear-opener for me. From that collection, I also liked Kino a lot, particularly the song called "Videli Noch".




who?




Today I looked down from my rooftop
Tonight I will burn letters
Stones in my hands
That are guarding our world
They are not the same thing.

I could have written an epos
But why risk my camouflage,
Could have taken canvas and brushes
But it wouldn't change a thing
Could have taken a step backwards
But that's not what I need.
No that's not what I need

It's just our dance on the edge of spring.




Одна из лучших песен Аквариума... помню, как я, впечатлившись этим клипом, мчался по февральским -30и в одной короткорукавной рубашке и с Танцами в наушника, а потом месяц болел ))




Thank you very much, Waggler.
I was born in Soviet Union, and for us this music was like a srteam of fresh air, more than only music, you know.




"Videli noch"? Excuse me, but can I ask ask you a question? Do you understand lyric (text) of this song?
And lyric of this clip? Or under the words "ear opener" you meen only music?




Была такая передача помню в Ленинграде-"Кружатся диски".Там этот клип крутили пару раз.Больще я его нигде не видел....
Раритет!Спасибо.




The fourth one was Strannye Igry.




Thanks, I've never seen this one!




I always liked this song a lot - first heard it on the "Red Wave" anthology. Thanks for posting this.




Funny, it's clear from the video that Boris had used to hide his long hair under his shirt at those times :-)

He always was a very careful man, our guru ;-)




sweet and naive- i've never seen this one before




"Red Wave" anthology? It`s very interesting! Can you tell me more about it? Who are the other singers?




very touching... as a call from early 80-s...




Спасибо огромное за клип. Аквариум.. Это то, что у нас глубоко внутри...




iriauchi, "Red Wave" was a vinyl double album released in the pre-perestroika mid-80's, featuring four Russian bands (Aquarium, Kino, Alisa and one other which I forget at the moment). This was the first that most Americans had heard of Russian rock, which up until then was an underground phenomenon.




real great song, naitive video, Boris is so young....very touching, yeah!
