29/06/09 - Hyde Park - Serpentine Sessions
(Poor camera work, I was watching regina not the camera :) )

Lyrics:

I--uh--must go on standing
You can't break that which isn't yours
I--uh--must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice

La-da-da, da-da-da

Be afraid of the lame
They'll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Apres moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

I--uh--must go on standing
You can't break that which isn't-isn't yours-yours
I--uh--must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice

La-da-da, da-da-da
Ah, uh, uh, ah, uh
La.. da.. da...
La-da-da

Be afraid of the lame
They'll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Apres moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

Be afraid of the lame
They'll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Apres moi, le deluge
After me the flood

Февраль. Достать чернил и плакать!
Писать о феврале навзрыд,
Пока грохочущая слякоть
Весною черною горит.

(February. get ink, shed tears.
write of it, sob your heart out, sing.
while torrential slush that roars,
burns in the blackness of the spring.)

Февраль. Достать чернил и плакать!
Писать о феврале навзрыд,
Пока грохочущая слякоть
Весною черною горит.

(February. get ink, shed tears.
write of it, sob your heart out, sing.
while torrential slush that roars,
burns in the blackness of the spring.)

Be afraid of the lame
They'll inherit your legs
Be afraid of the old
They'll inherit your souls
Be afraid of the cold
They'll inherit your blood
Apres moi, le deluge
After me comes the flood

I--uh--must go on standing
You can't break that which isn't yours
I--uh--must go on standing
I'm not my own, it's not my choice

I--uh--must go on stand--stand--ing--dong
You can't--can't--break that--that--which isn't-isn't yours--yours
I--uh--must go on stand--stand--ing--dong
I'm not--not--my own--own--it's not--not--my choice

[Makimono]

can anyone translate the russian part?

it's so awesome!

[spektography]

Updated for you, I thought I already had it on there :)

[Luyify]

It's so hard to translate. So many untranslatable folklore words.

Ok, I'll try. Literally it will sounds like:

"February...

To get ink and to cry, write about February on explosion,

While roaring slush burns in the black spring."

(2 times)

[spektography]

February. get ink, shed tears.

write of it, sob your heart out, sing.

while torrential slush that roars,

burns in the blackness of the spring

[butterbugs1234]

EVERYONE sings!

haha

thats so cool!

[botneva]

this song is so Russian... makes me think about Siberian winters and mountains. feel so proud Regina is ours=)

[RLGCTL]

Great performance

[camladyiswickeawsome]

Is there a studio version of this? Not that it isn't brilliant already... I just get really annoyed with the fans sometimes. (But I be singing along with them to... lol)

[emelilla]

I don't like the singing along so much to this song though... Sometimes she can sing somethings differently and you can't hear them as well if people sing... but one thing that's funny is that you can clearly hear who has listened to live recordings and who has listened to the album. :P

[peachtable966]

russian :-)
