Spel Aria - Calm / Russian Rock on the Street in Spain
Russian Subtitles. Live voice and emotion - here. The cover version is performed a half-tone higher than the original near Valencia Cathedral. The police arrived in response to a call, but did not stop the performance. After the performance, I approached them myself, greeted them warmly, and I'll quote their words: "We came in response to a call, but we didn't stop you because we were so impressed by your performance and really enjoyed it." (Usually they stop right away and drive up close, but I should add that there were people watching and applauding at the end, and they were the deterrent, I know from experience.) I, in turn, said that the song in Russian is about the struggle between good and evil, where my role in the song, as in life, is for light and peace. To this, they smiled sweetly and sincerely. I explained my position to them about the caller, why I didn't go out to the square and explain to everyone what I'd done that was so evil. The police officers looked at me favorably, and we agreed that this is what unfortunate people do. I told them that when they're celebrating here and the sound is 100 times louder than mine, they're all silent. No one calls the police because it looks ridiculous. They understand everything, my philosophy remains mine, and I said goodbye to them respectfully and kindly.
The original lyrics in the cover version are a one-off script, based on the author's own vision and feelings. Not everyone will understand, which is only natural.
