This song was a favourite of mine for a long long time.  Maybe because I heard it in my childhood.  My son (of course!) said that it was very dumb.  The only thing that he appreciated was the clip – the puppets & their performance.  But he never likes anything that I choose, he [...]

Alone…

I like this clip because if you don’t know the words, it rends itself for creating a rather beautiful story about LIGHT.
 
The lyrics are rather strange, yet… who knows why I like this song?

I am alone…
 
You are alone, you are without me like the wind
Leave so nobody will take notice

Мы не такие,
Как все вокруг,
Мой таинственный друг.
Достаньте длинный
Свой пистолет.
Никто на свете
Не скажет: нет.
Пусть от любви
Будет ночь пылать.

There’ll be no one in the house
Save for twilight. All alone,
Winter’s day seen in the space that’s
Made by curtains left undrawn.
 
 
Only flash-past of the wet white
Snowflake clusters, glimpsed and gone.
Only roofs and snows, and save for
Roofs and snow – no one at home.
