'I Believe, My Friends' - Soviet Space Program Song

[crimsonsxrazor]

its like a song reminiscing about the past and cellebrate the future that we never achieve truly a shame

[jos--stranac-u-noci]

The West: "Ground control to Major Tom...(brooding)"
The East: "Welp, 14 more minutes to launch; let's light a cig, it's gonna be a great ride..."

[edwardnashton]

This. This must be a song of all mankind, in a perfect world. Not the war hymns, not the national anthems, not the empty pop-products, but this. The warmest kind song filled of faith for better future and enthusiams to exploring Universe. Not to conquer, not to consume, not to exploit - just to see a distants stars and left at least some trails on it.
Mankind can achieve much more if it will unite at least in scientific spheres. No matter which country are your from - man must be a comrade to man (and I don't talk about communism here) on their common way to stars and depths of space.

It doesn’t matter how you feel about the Soviet Union, at that time they wrote wonderful songs and you can’t argue with that.

[flistick]

Nostalgia for the USSR is nostalgia not for the past, but for an unhappened future

[DogesBasement]

It's a sad song because we haven't reached the far planets, but rather kill each other in endless wars.

This gives me the same vibe as those time capsule letters from the USSR that predicted the world would be living under global communism and we would be a spacefaring society by 2017. It hurts!

"I'm going to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by Capitalism. Space!"

[ИринаЧеремнова-ур]

Какое душевное исполнение, приятный, бархатный голос! Вот чем должно заниматься человечество! И беречь планету Земля, другой у нас нет!

[karlmarx]

По доброму завидую своим предкам-первооткрывателям!

[colonelcorn]

We’re going to the one place not tainted by capitalism, space!

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened :}

[luckyarbuzec]

Как же грустно, что вместо исследований бесконечных просторов и путешествий по звездам, мы снова ударились в ядерное оружие и в способы к самоубийству

[lachh]

This could've been our future if only western countries weren't so against communism. This is a sad song to listen to much like those Soviet capsules. The work of Lenin, Stalin, and every Soviet destroyed and this optimism just makes it sad to listen to.

[Зарван]

Я завидую своему дедушке который успел побывать в таком прекрасном государстве.

[sare-zk]

i like this version more than the orchestral, thank you

[monkeyx]

Comrade, do you still remember? The first person to enter space was a communist

[StateofArrowstan]

I may not like the Soviet Union, but I can admire their contributions to human space travel. I hope one day we as mankind can set aside our differences and hate, and work to benefit all of our futures as mankind!

I was singing along at the beginning and noticed a lyric was off so I checked it and in the beginning it says “come on guys, let’s smoke before launch” which must be either an older or a newer one, because all the other renditions have smoke be sing instead
