The original "THOSE WERE THE DAYS" (Дорогой длинною) - Marie-Anne Izmajlov (Manca Izmajlova)

Beautiful song and singing. This is something that Russians do well. I only wish they could stick to doing this. Слава україні

great russian vodka spirit😁

Translated to English:

We rode in a troika with bells,
And lights flashed in the distance...
Oh, I wish I could follow you now,
To dispel my soul from melancholy!

The Long Road,
Moonlight weather,
Yes with that song
What flies into the distance ringing,
And with that old one,
Yes with a seven-string
What's at night
It tormented me so much.

Yes, it turns out we sang for nothing,
They burned in vain night after night.
If we're done with the old,
And so those nights passed away!

الاغنية الاصلية هى قصة حب روسية

Excellent, what else one say .From a older Canuck

Russia, land of beautiful music and beautiful women!
PS I cannot say which comes first.

And very beautiful too. I suspect that Russians do nostalgia very well. I spent my family years in Portugal and they have a word 'saudade' which covers a nostalgic longing for what you are missing whether in time or in space. Thank you for expressing so beautifully what we feel.

Bravissimi russi, bella canzone.
Non sapevo fosse stata scritta in Russia.

Это русский романс присвоенный Мэри Хопкинс,некрасиво она поступила

Very nice, better than the english version.

i thought Mary hopkin is the singer since 1969

so beoutiful

Bravo Marie-Anne - beautiful version

👍👍👍👍

We should use this beautiful song composed by Boris Fomin (1900–1948) and lyrics by Konstantin Podrevsky to help foster peace in Europe because Russia is European. The song was heavily plagiarized by Mary Hopkin's 1968 "Those Were The Days" which was a major hit in European pop music 50 years ago Music, please! Skip the governants; unite peoples!

I guessed the melody is close to Russian culture but never able to figure out exactly about the composer
Thank you for sharing the music
The melody is so wonderful that can match to any language and lyrics

This song carries such Power of Life, Strong meaning of Remembrance, Sung with a Woman's Beautiful, Powerful Voice. And the Musicians Carried the Depth of Meaning the top. Loved it Thank you❤

the exquisite beauty of the Russian soul - shining through its language and music ... 🥰

BRAVO MADAM BRAVO. From Southside VIRGINIA. WELL DONE. Thank You

SHE STEALS MY HEART... SUCH BEAUTY AND A VOICE OF ANGELS

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME

I have NEVER liked the song, but this is FAR superior to Mary Hopkin's screechy version .

Paul McCartney and Mary Hopkins equals a worldwide 🌐 hit song 🎵

원곡은 러시아 노래엿군요

很美的歌！

Bravo Russia regards from Indonesia

Thank you verymuch.
👍🙏👏👏👏🌹♥️♥️♥️🌷🌠💫🌌😘

The song is very nice, but I do not understand a thing of what she says. So I like the English Version better.

I did not expect any less from the land of Tchaikovsky, Rimsky Korsakov, Brodin, Dostyrvsky, Tolstoy, Pasternak, Chekhov.

There is no one from UK, USA that can match the above list so why the surprise from so many of you?

France, Germany, Italy yes they have equivalent masters but not the English or the Americans.

Superb. Many, many thanks.

Погода лунной не бывает. Лунная указывает на время суток. Поэтому логичнее и правильнее по тексту автора -
Дорогой длинною, да ночкой лунною.

I bet when Mary Hopkin sang this song nobody in the West actually knew it was Russian.

❤❤

Экспрессии надо добавить, а так неплохо...

Russians are among the very most romantic, literary and musical peoples on the planet! Wonderful!

Does anyone have the lyric

Русская душа говорит: «Путлер в Гааг», ведь каждому россиян путлеризм-неонацизм до горла давным давно

란류초고다라유불유바수

진리를 말해주셔삼사합니다

회상에 젖어 봅니다.
이 노래가 ' 러시아 ' 민요인 줄은 서방의 팝가수가 부른지 한참 후에 알게 됐구만요

Saludos hermanos rusos desde la Ciudad de México .

Whilst I admit this Russian original, is better than the English version, the second does not pale at all to me, as it is the one associated with my memories of youth, and I never listened this one, till recently. So it all depends on whether a song brings us nice remembrances or not.

Anglophones, if you know the english translation and listen to THIS you will see how pale the Hopkins rendition is in comparison. Bravo Bravisima!

Kompliment, Marie-Anne, Sie sind eine echte Künstlerin mit einer unglaublich schönen Stimme. Grandios!

La chanson originale-ДОРОГОИ ДЛИННАЮ-est sortie en 1924 et la version anglaise de MARY HOPKINS en 1967 !!!! Quand on met en ligne un vidéo..soyons un peu sérieux.. et tout simplement comparez les dates..!!! LE TITRE RUSSE SIGNIFIE LONGUE ROUTE....
