Guess something good had to come out of Russia besides spawning revolutions, creating dictators & fostering oppression.

[heyheyhophop]

To everyone wondering, kind of best original russian recording is /watch?v=LVQ3TplZxMA

Cheers from Russia!

[burucozcan]

@2841peanutbutter really ?

[Elvra99]

А кто полетел первым в космос."Не помню фамилию,но,вестимо,американец"­.

А что неблагодарные русские вообще сделали?В последнее время такое мнение формируется,причем,подозреваю,­не случайно.

[Elvra99]

Дело не в том,как фамилия автора, дело в том,что сплагиатили и ни намека на страну происхождения.А потом ее начали переводить на испанский, французский и т.п.-как АНГЛИЙСКУЯ песню-со словами вроде "таверна в Лондоне".Насчет бездарных перепевок иностранных песен-я отношусь к этому ничуть не лучше, с чего бы? Вполне пойму,если это не понравится уже иностранцам.Но это задевает патриотические чувства-это вещи того же ряда,когда американцы рассказывают,что спасли весь мир от немцев во второй мировой

[nozh2002]

Ha! Initially I thought it is translation from Russian, but it looks like it was actually stolen - lyric is quite different.

[Elvra99]

Когда услышала эту порнографию, чуть удар не хватил.Как я уже писала, могла бы указать,что это бездарная переделка русской песни.Почему китайцы,вьетнамцы и проч.,даже переводя(причем более тщательно)русские песни знают, кто пел и о чем пелось? А эти господа даже не указывают, откуда стянули мелодию.

[Verexlyon]

@Elvra99 Странно, а удар не хватает вас слыша всю ту порнографию, которая сегодня зовётся "русской эстрадой"? Не говоря уже о том, что по количеству бездарных перепевок нынешние певуны явно побили все рекорды. Вот недавно совсем услышал пародии на Via con me и Azzuro, та ещё порнография. Или "удар хватает" только когда перепевают русские песни?

[Verexlyon]

@Elvra99 Кстати, то, что вы с лёгкой руки назвали "порнографией" было любимой песней целого поколения именно в исполнении Хопкинс. А по большому счёту всем было плевать кто автор. Собственно автора текста мало кто помнит, помнят исполнительницу. И, кстати, в Союзе её тоже слушали. Разумеется, не те, кто ограничивался Зыкиной, Магомаевым или Песнярами...

[Elvra99]

I wonder, if she even pointed out that this was remake of Russian Song?or she decided that during the Cold War she can not bother copyright? outrageously

[NASIMNASIM]

Great video, It really goes well with the song.

[stan199023072009]

omg i loved that show when i was a kid

[vermodertefee]

It was the very first record I´ve bought when I was only three years old...now I´m 45 and I still know it word by word...and nowadays I love heavy metal :-)

Thanx a heck of a lot for posting it from Germany !

[jonathanbirchley]

Neeto .... thanks for posting an old fave song. Dont know the movie but I'd guess it ought to have been .... Les Parapluies de Cherbourg.

[eliciellanette]

Mighty Morphin... Lol, this brings back memories. =)

[liltemptress7]

LOVE this song, but this video sucks!

[Paxta666]

@liltemptress7 I just thought the same. Sorry but Power Rangers? What the fuck is happening here?

[ecju]

power rangersın resimlerini koyarak şarkının bütün hissiyatını s.kmişsiniz terbirk yapıyorum

[miff45]

Amy Jo Johnson was my first crush as a boy watching power rangers. Till this day 19 years later she still has my heart :)

[chipocludo007]

Fascinante

[MrKulitkayumanis]

[friken0frank2]

power rangers? XD AWESOME

[perplexedmoth]

LOL POWER RANGERS

[libsemik]

Лучше всего из России с водкой

[farid3abdel3aziz]

Those were the days, my friend

We thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance forever and a day

We'd live the life we'd choose

We'd fight and never lose

Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days

[bieberhatersclub11]

were making a justin bieber haters club please join us if you hate him as much as we do please sub :D

[maravilha00]

the lyrics have NOT been written by john lennon! the russian song has been adapted to english by gene raskin!

the song has been released by mary hopkin with big success in 1968.

[alltoone2]

The song is beautiful! The 3rd World power rangers are ugly like hell!

This song and these ugly rangers should not be combined in the first place!

[2010stupidass]

John Lennon made the words got this song before it was just a beat

[AzunaiTheDefender]

Pink ranger gave me my first boner. Fapped to her so many times when i was 13. Ahhhhh the memories, those were the days indeed

[trinisavi3]

this is the first power rangers!

[joeycena13]

power rangers LOL

[alonelychild]

@joeycena13 Indeed, I couldn't stop laughing

[66jdp]

awesome!

[khaadim1]

omgd i was like 10 11 wen power rangers came out im 25 now and i t just brings back memories

[Zoomoth9000]

i'd like to hear this song sung is Russian. Before everyone screams at me that the Russian song has the same tune but different lyrics, why can't i read the comments, i'm so stupid, blah, blah,blah, i have heard the Russian original, but would like to hear THIS song, with THESE lyrics, translated into Russian and sung to the same tune.

[schetin]

@Zoomoth9000

Come on, this version is real dull. Well, maybe... k, good for the West. Russians are more choosy.

[Krichardvn94]

yeah..."We fight and never lose"...That fits our rangers.

[marston5000]

YES!! Those were the days. OH....How we laughed and what fun we had.  I remember listening to Mary Hopkins sing this song on the radio driving to a distination.....Those were the days.

Also: I would hear this song, in the background, of Oscars Drive-In Restaurant eating a hamburger and frenchfries....played on an old fashioned jupebox. Those were the days.

[marston5000]

YES!! Those were the days.  OH....How we laughed and what fun we had. I remember listening to Mary Hopkins sing this song on the radio driving to a distination.....Those were the days.

[Onidala16]

I Love this song very much:-) reminds me when i was 7 years old were playing and listening this beautiful song with my sisters and my friends:) tThose were the Days..... my friends:-)

[minhanh0410]

i like this song. it sounds tuneful

[MrSpeedybusa]

she's songs ....i wish to apear in fallout new vegs

[NgocLan18]

Thank you! It gave me so much memories when i was child! Beautiful dreams of child!

[socbay719]

it's russian song

[DarkFlamage]

Wonderful effort on behalf of the song, but power rangers?? come on really! That had to be about the cheapest, most poorly crafted series, that I had to suffer through for the sake of my little girl. I was happy when she finally got old enough to notice how chintzy it was!

[stafylides]

Was that Power Rangers in the video?

[099749]

@stafylides

Yeah I think it's a goodbye power rangers tribute video :*-(

[099749]

If your not a power rager democrate when your young you have no heart.

If your not a republican when your old you never took and money and suported the monster

[CathaySaber]

[trupnai640]

[Mersinidmanyurdu33]

yarami ye fener!

[lamyeenam]

I luv the video

[kinhkong88]

beautiful song

[jonh013]

kimberly was sexy

[XduchaX]

@Vagalume 1949 Ola Brazil....Nao sei muito sobre os 60's talvez sejas certo talvez nao! Nao tem muita importacia, esta cancao representa os bonitos momentos e nao interessa em que ano 60 or 90's...nao sao bogagens sao verdadeiros lindos moments, estou lembrado o que o meu pai cantava cheio de alegria! Oh boy do i wish he stil be here 'gostaria tanto que meu pai estive agora aqui' :)

[wtfallnamestaken]

So appropriate lolol xD awesome.

[Vagalume1949]

Eh esta cancao, uma composicao Russa? Eu penso que sim. La a gente a gente a ouvi em quase todos os concertos classicos (e la quase todos os concertos , concertos ou consertos, sao classicos). No Brasil , nos anos 60s , nohs a ouviamos na voz de Joelma. O titulo era: Aqueles Tempos.

Linda cancao.

[OhOhBe]

What is a T/K relationship?

[brucenator]

@OhOhBe Tommy/Kimberly... the Pink and Green Ranger characters from Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers

[ponpokopon1]

I always feel to cry when I hear this song.

[naimmje]

@ponpokopon1 why... its more than less is song of hpainess!

[igfe1632]

This is a great song. Unfortunately the creators of this romance Boris Fomin and Konstantin Podrevskii are forgotten and they are almost never mentioned on the records

[richpat]

@igfe1632

But Podrevskii didnt write the lyrics to "those were the days" they were written by an American Gene Raskin, 'Days... and "Dorogoy dlinnoyu" (Дорогой длинною) are completely different songs.

[Ruk8mini]

@richpat "Completely different songs" have completely the same melody. If Mr.Raskin wrote the English lyrics for English speaking audience, we can just thank him for popularization of this nice Russian song. The composer, Boris Fomin (1900-1948) would be happy to know, that so many people in the world love his music.

[richpat]

@Ruk8mini "Dorogoy dlinnoyu" and "those were the days" share the melody only, Raskin did NOT translate "Dorogoy dlinnoyu" The words have no similarity whatsover and that is what I am trying to say. 

[whitedogsrule]

@richpat Give up to Americans. Americans only know the weak-kneed Raskin/Hopkins version, which should be, given its origins, be "Where have all the beatniks gone?". Raskin was a hunk of junk. The average American thinks Дорогой длинною translates to the Raskin title. The words to the Russian song are beautiful even in English translation. Raskin's words are self-pitying crap. When I heard the Hopkins song in 1969, I almost threw up!

[FRAGIORGIO1]

@whitedogsrule Well, give us the translation to the original Russian words rather than complaining. We're all interested and love the music.

[DaedalusReturned]

Everyone knew the original pink ranger was the hottest!

[coldmaxmax]

interesting that this person chose tommy and kimberly but when i saw this show i new they would be together

[pitot1988]

who is the actress for the pink ranger?

[TheKevmeister69]

@pitot1988 Pink ranger was played by Amy Jo Johnson.

[nofreedom4racists]

power rangers.... yea those were the days alright. I remember craving to watch it long time ago though now i wonder why.

[Rhynn1]

The song is nice.

You piece of retarded shit leeching off is however not.

Posting abusive messages to random peeps is no excuse.

Even if it is Ron White.

No.

[Rhynn1]

She's not a brit, welsch or w/e you like to get credit for.

Never was, her accent is clear.

[bigfatbastardf1]

@Rhynn1 What do you mean she's not a Brit, last time I looked Wales was still part of Britain. I think what you mean is she's not English.

[TheRamoun]

the best song ever

[jana518]

I heard this song many yrs. ago sung by Edith Piaf. I have looked but have never found it again.

[jimbowie09]

Nice, clever video for a great olde song! Nice editing in syncopation with the song too! Cheers!

[ElPrezAU]

You drink beer at a tavern - not milkshakes damnit! :P

[joeycena13]

@ElPrezAU what the hell is a tavern??? power rangers home base??

[alonelychild]

@joeycena13 it is a medieval bar or pub

[J8ger8]

@ElPrezAU This is a Russian tavern however, the milkshake comes standard with much Vodka.

[Serondie]

@ElPrezAU hahahahaha that cracked me up..damnit!! :P

[Pmfried]

Would you know who is the singer here? It's not the original recording. But the voice is very similar.

[lynnpam1]

@Pmfried How old are you ? not original , realy think your wrong, who else would it be, and why ?

[mert1221]

i always try not to cry while listening this amazing song

[hugimat]

@mert1221 me too... I have a friend with whom we used to have great relationship but these days are gone and I miss them so much...

[Ringo55753]

This is by far the best video I've EVER seen on youtube.

[ISRAELDOWN2022]

this song reminds me of my teen age years in beautiful chicago it also reminds me of the kindness of americans who treated me good when i didnt speak english. keep this song forever . thank you chicago i love u as much as i love my city of jerusalem .truly n. mohammad

[varigdc10]

@ISRAELDOWN2022 I also grew up in Chicago listening to this song, very nice. This song is Russian original " the long road ", written by Boris Fomin, by chance my name is also Fomin, as my parents up in heaven now were Russian. Have a nice life, from Chicago ( summer ) and Miami ( winter ).

[tthan43]

Oh God, how I do remember this song. It brings back so very many wonderful memories. Yes, it is easy to cry when remembering all that has gone and can never be brought back. It is a life passed by.

[jamesahorner]

Thank you!

[Yunklob]

Вот ведь, настоящая Цыганщина (в лучшем смысле этого слова)!

[lynnpam1]

I was in my early teens at home in Wales. I made a freindship to last a lifetime, we could not have been closer if we had been brothers. We went through so much together as we grew, good and bad, though much more good whatever life through at us.

Years went by , I moved to London, we both started families. I would visit home . We would get together in the "TAVERN" and the years sliped back.and it was as "YEASTERDAY" again no differant at all , truly.

He died unexspectantly I now listen

[castingtherunes]

The busy years are a curse.

[ierofant1000]

Ехали на тройке с бубенцами А вдали мелькали огоньки Эх когда бы мне теперь за вами Душу бы развеять от тоски Дорогой длинною погодой лунною Да с песней той что вдаль летит звеня И с той старинною да с семиструнною Что по ночам так мучила меня Да выходит пели мы задаром Понапрасну ночь за ночью жгли Если мы покончили со старым Так и ночи эти отошли

[apoczter]

@88atrain The fact that you are a CUNT ...ought to hurt

[ghostlyme]

My friends and I used to think the Green/White Ranger was so hot.

[internetTOUGHGUY1000]

[igberg]

Чудесно! Ох.))))

[MrFastTrumpet]

@igberg смотрите на wildtrimpet

[MJDickson69]

Where did this song originate? I heard this was an old Russian folk song.........is this correct? And changed the words to westerner type of theme.

[DasModell2]

@MJDickson69 "Those Were the Days" is a song credited to Gene Raskin, who put English lyrics to the Russian song "Dorogoi dlinnoyu" ("Дорогой длинною", lit. "By the long road"), written by Boris Fomin (1900-1948) with words by the poet Konstantin Podrevskii. -wikipedia

[ksp7653]

@DasModell2 nice info!

[LeWiS2K9SMUDGEMOONED]

@MJDickson69 yes it was it was wrote and composed by boris fomin

[gafastrafas]

[TRKWP]

Touching.

[Weimlady]

Great song. Thank you for posting it.

[ED284140]

This is the best of many versions by Mary of this beautiful and unusual song.

[Promoagent]

[marike99]

Dorogoy dlinnoyu BEFORE Those were the days

[marike99]

[KrummklauigeJungfer]

@ neeto: Could you tell me out of which episodes the Kimberley & Tommy material is ? That would be really nice. Great vid, great song, I actually had to stare at the screen for quite a while until I recognized the show, captured by the music...

=)

[bhagenbdrinkin]

[dahsuerk]

First artist signed to Apple Records

[scott29298]

another great paul mccartney song what a genius

[maxfedor1]

lol this is not McCartney song. originally a russian poem put tu russian music in the 20's. plenty folk artist in greenwich village did this song early 60's.

[Freyja1133]

max,does this song date bakc to the russian revolution?

[maxfedor1]

imagine was from around bolshevik era. wiki the song it tells you its history. The music is from russian gypsy song and the words from russian poet

[lordraven1980]

it's not a paul mccartney song..its a (russian) gypsy song.

[scott29298]

@lordraven1980 its mccartney lyrics to russian tune like he done with golden slumbers in the beatles

[lordraven1980]

@scott29298 : no its Gene Raskins lyrics, he wrote the english lyrics. mccartney produced Hopkin's recording. mccartney didn't write the lyrics nor did he create the original melody.

[whoanelly42]

How beautiful!

[macd4ddy]

Power Rangers? ... Really? Well, ok. They must mean something important to you (heh).

[10j35u5]

could be worse... could be something like Puka... or Shin-chan, or even The Fimbles... Think about it, It could be worse...

[zedhakim]

This is a wonderful song. It takes me back to the sixties when I was a teenager full of dreams.

[JohnJuan128]
