[JoeLolikon]

Очень, скажем так, русифицировано. Слишком. Но неплохо.

[Daintytwinkletoes]

Does anyone know the true meaning of the song? Not just what you think. Thanks :-)

[auroramaj]

[hurtreliefhurt]

I like your interpretation of the lyrics, although there are some misspellings ;)

[JordanBarnesIsGay]

[porkfucker]

This song has haunted me all my life, but I have no fucking idea why? I don't know what it means... If anybody can elaborate for an ignorant cunt like myself I'd b grateful...

[tremelay1]

That is funny ..it haunted me too.The thing is i haven't heard it for years til i found it now.

[maraton737]

it haunted every human compationate with the crushed ones , it is your conscience that is haunting you !

[Zafira881]

Бедные малыши, ручонки в бородавках. Всегда плачу, когда это вижу.

[fredmila]

It's true that she looked like Elvis.

Good video, probably shot in Peru? Ecuador?

[auroramaj]

This song...it has no equal..Tanita is the only one..look at my eyes...

[Coscia007]

Amazing song!!!!

[marksbrisby]

This is such a beautiful song, I can't believe she was like 16 when she did this song

[PSDDHRTF]

The Russian version is the best. I love Tanita Tikaram without politics

[Martin890702]

[djokovic7]

[PAULGOREE]

Pure art, at it's best. Tanita Tikaram was/is a great musician and artist.

[awerling]

Wow...new song for me...I love it!

[Anchows]

Действительно хороший перевод,за душу берет,да еще вкупе с таким вокалом...

[larsi31]

All the clip children are walking around and there's a car and that it.

[Jeszenszkyzoltan]

This Russian version is the best, I think.

[Deefit81]

[kahiria]

Ich liebe dieses Lied. Es ist so schön. Ein Traum!!!!!!!

[liebesromanfreak]

Ich find dieses Lied so geil.

This song is so good.

[fahro62]

@liebesromanfreak

[gigivorsicht]

great work

[yizhivika]

Мне все равно! Fine artist & a great song (albeit a tad obscure). There's too little Tanita Tikaram stuff on YouTube (especially from the album "The Sweet Keeper" which is my personal favourite).

[masha0lyubemaya]

okayy is it just me or lyrics are different from song???

[mower001]

zajebiste!!!!!

[brunos001]

good job :)

What do you think of the Liza Minnelli/Pet shop boys version of this song?

[talos124]

Very Haunting with beautiful chords.

[nitsan7]

great song, but I didn't understand the lyrics.

[uncinarynin]

can't believe this is 20 years old already, it still sounds fresh!

[ArnoldSchwarznigger]

Agreed.

[nightrider4braveonly]

Happy New Year, Tanita ! :* :* :* :)

[Xelanderthomas]

I love this song. This whole album is amazing.

[djthugstar]

Утром, когда я вытираю мою бровь

Вытераю еэти мили

Я люблю думать, что я могу столь желаться

И никогда не делай то, что ты говориш

[djthugstar]

Потребность детей Всего Бога, путешествуя по ботинкамВедите ваши проблемы отсюда

Все хорошие люди читают хорошие книги

Теперь ваша совесть чиста

[komette75]

[simidiva]

very touching song..

[swearingdad]

Takes me back! Where can I get this on MP3...?

[througtthewind]

video eccezionale in bianco e nero ,toccante,voce unica,sempre attuale.

[anatoliyzong]

How would you guys interpret the lyrics of the song. I know that there are lots of hidden meanings in this text. Could you suggest me an article about this song? I am just wondering what was the thing that provoked her making this song the way it is. I mean is there an article that gives some more information about the song. I would love to know...

[braathens75]

There is an interview for TV4 with Tanita on youtube in which they ask her about it. She says the song is about "how it was difficult to react to things that you felt you were really always unable to react", and about having no conscience and being "slightly immoral". Many years ago she said in an interview that while writing the song she was very much influenced by Larkin's poem "Poetry of Departures".

[anatoliyzong]

Thanks! SO MUCH! hey I am writing an essay about this song, I am not a big fan of Tanita but she wrote such a beautiful song that and I just wanted to get everything out of it, you know...I am still putting it into text... thanks braathens75 I really appreciate it! GREETING Anatoliy

[braathens75]

You're welcome and I hope it was helpful-was it? I am curious about your own interpretation and your essay. Good luck!

[nightrider4braveonly]

Thanks 4 your Great anatomy :)

[braathens75]

Larkin's poem is about a person who lives a very orderly life, but s/he is aware that it is not necessary to live it this way, and this awareness lets him stay "sober and industrious". Google "Poetry of Departures"; it's too long to post it here.

[braathens75]

Or I'll post it here piece by piece: Philip Larkin Poetry Of Departures Sometimes you hear, fifth-hand, As epitaph: He chucked up everything And just cleared off, And always the voice will sound Certain you approve This audacious, purifying, Elemental move.

[braathens75]

(2) And they are right, I think.

We all hate home

And having to be there:

I detest my room,

It's specially-chosen junk,

The good books, the good bed,

And my life, in perfect order:

So to hear it said

[braathens75]

(3) He walked out on the whole crowd

Leaves me flushed and stirred,

Like Then she undid her dress

Or Take that you bastard;

Surely I can, if he did?

And that helps me to stay

Sober and industrious.

But I'd go today,

[braathens75]

(4) Yes, swagger the nut-strewn roads,

Crouch in the fo'c'sle

Stubbly with goodness, if

It weren't so artificial,

Such a deliberate step backwards

To create an object:

Books; china; a life

Reprehensibly perfect.

[nightrider4braveonly]

p.s.

My compliments to translator,he must be a really gifted person.If you think otherwise-try by yourself,and I'll read it with pleasure :)

Concerning Tanita,actually this is the only song of her that touched me,but this fucking touching is like some fucking DeadKiss- momentalno v more.

[nightrider4braveonly]

Наконец-то вьехал о чем это она поет :)

[bllsmith12]

scenes of poverty and words frustration combine to make it a powerful song ,yet it can be heard in in the hall of a most rich and drunken magnet

[jacko1972]

I'm so disappointed! I thought she was going to sing in Russian. Not be sub-titled. Still, it's an amazing song, in any language.

[Sorokoput]

To andres6868

kakoe tvoe delo, baran!?

[ilya135]

horosho skazano Sorokoput

[andres6868]
