SONG SATURDAY - VITAS FROM RUSSIA
“Home is not where you live but where they understand you.” - Christian Morgenstern
A nice restful day today… Then a wonderful evening at home, with dinner for two, candlelight, music, flowers… All the while the wind was howling outside and the cold, wet streets reflected the lights. We laughed and we kissed, oblivious of the winter night outside…
Here is an upbeat song from Russia, sung by Vitas. It is a song about coming home from foreign lands, a song about the welcoming shores of Russia, made all the more wonderful by the spring sunshine and the gorgeous scenery of the video, shot in the Ukraine not far from Kiev.
Illustration is the Swallow’s Nest Castle in Yalta, overlooking the Black Sea.
I love Russian music, even if this video was a touch Eurovision Song Festivalish. But the landscape is terrific and the Swallow’s Nest Castle looks even more amazing. If only summer lasted for 6 months of the year in Russia.
