St. Petersburg, Russia 2005

Video clips from 15 days spent in St. Petersburg, Russia. Various places along Nevsky Prospekt, the electronics flea market (Unona), and getting around the city. Music by "St. Petersburg Highlights" doing thier acapela rendition of "Back in the USSR" by the Beatles. I mixed sound for this Russian folkloric group once a week on the cruise ship I was working on, and this is where the live audio and video is taken from.

@UncleVanya21 Thanks a lot for your kind words! I guess some people just need to seek professional help... Don't worry, there are people like that in every place in the world, not just St. Petersburg.

@ericdumb: Don't listen to Taguitsev, its great video, great song. I'm originally from St.Petersburg myself, and honestly I feel a bit embarrassed at someone from my hometown lashing out in such manner.

Thanks for the Vid, the music is great and I was even born in this city :)

[Taguiltsev]

Video is ok, music is vulgar for Russian ear, it is not even folk music.

[Taguiltsev]

@ericdumb Shut up, moron! You video is hanging over for 4 years and mine the last one is only less than a month and I do not give a shit how many views your video has collected.

I dare! You published it for critic but not for reaping laurels. And be polite, please, if you want better treatment for youself.

[ericdumb]

@Taguiltsev YOU are a useless piece of shit. How dare you criticize my video commemorating my time in this city you seem to love so much. This is an adaptation of a terrific song by hard-working Russian performers. Just because my video has over 30,000 views and your lousy videos have only a few hundred is no reason to lash out at me in jealousy!

[Taguiltsev]

@ericdumb Your music is wrong for this clip. It is just useless piece of shit.

Music is shit!

[Taguiltsev]

@dancingelfman As for now. People and its government are so far from each other, that there should not be any associations between what our government says and what the people think. It can be quite different things.

[Taguiltsev]

@dancingelfman Russia was not going to bomb the USA, That what happened with Japan required to be protected. The USA demonstrated nuclear weapon to the whole world and first of all to Russia. So Russia were to be the second after Japan. But there was a period called Caribian crisis. It is another story.

Да Советский Союз хотел применить ядерную бомбу против Америки , так если бы Америка применила бомбу против нас . Я думаю что до этого бы не дошло . Потому что мы бы уничтожили друг друга . Это не в общих интересах .
