1. Russian artist Дельфин.
2. Dolphin are a three piece indie rock band from Christchurch, New Zealand that formed in 1987 and have released 3 eps and 5 albums. The band comprise of Kevin Stokes (Vox, Gat), Rob Mayes (Bass, Gat), Steve Birss (Drums) and Tracy Thompkins (drums). Dolphin's sound is a jagged blend of melodic guitars and driving rhythms, broadly defined as melodic alternative rock.
They spent 3 years in the UK and toured the east coast of America under the name Delphy which they changed to avoid confusion with other bands using that name in Europe. They reverted back to Dolphin upon return to New Zealand.
3. Dolphin, multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, composer, producer, engineer, arranger, MC, visual artist. Known to many through his music which ranges from punk funk to hip hop, Dolphin has an extremely wide range of both musical influences and efforts. With influences that range from David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust" era, James Brown and the Jb's, Funkadelic, Prince, Shuggie Otis, Frank Zappa, Nick Drake, Sun Ra, Joy Division, the Cure, Mobb Deep, Jay Dilla of Slum Village, The Velvet Underground, Bad Brains, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Miles Davis, Charles Mingus, Kraftwerk, Roy Ayers, Sly Stone, and Joni Mitchell, one never knows exactly what type of music Dolphin will record and present. Equally as complex is his style of recording to achieve his sound, which could range from a mid seventies analog recording techniques used by the Beatles and the Stones ("Everything is live instruments, from the drums to the guitars, no loops or electronic conditioning, it's naturally textured before it ever sees a computer") to making hip hop beats in the vein of Dj Premier, Pete Rock, or the late great James "Dilla" Yancey ("That is a completely different technique, I make all the beats before they ever see a computer using various methods from 'chopping' sounds to live instruments, the traditional way of making real beats"). Dolphin scores, writes, and performs all his own material preferring to be at the helm of all studio and live efforts.

Крылья
Dolphin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Там притомились два моих крыла,
Ведь воздух был когда-то мне дороже,
Чем под ногами твёрдая земля...
Открой глаза, и я ворвусь в них, словно в небо,
И соберу слезинки в бриллиант,
И каждый миг, когда с тобой я не был,
Не бойся быть одна, я за твоей спиною,
Я тихо времени считаю бег
И белым снегом, как крылом, тебя укрою
От пятого апреля, от талых бед...
Не прячь свою печаль, пускай она прольётся
Пурпурной каплей на кусочки льда...
Пускай она идёт, ведь всё равно вернётся,
Ей крылья не нужны – она и так легка
(Легка, легка, легка, легка,
Легка, легка, легка, легка,
Легка, легка, легка, легка,
Легка, легка, легка, легка)...
Ты режешь под лопаткой кожу –
Там вместо крыльев два уродливых крючка...
Теперь я не могу летать, но всё же
Когда-то мог, и это всё, пока
(Пока, пока, пока, пока,
Пока, пока, пока, пока,
Пока, пока, пока, пока,
Пока, пока, пока, пока)...
The song "Крылья" ("Wings") by Dolphin talks about losing the ability to fly due to emotional pain and heartbreak. The first verse starts with the lines "Cut the skin under my shoulder / There lay my two wings exhausted / For once the air was more precious to me / Than the solid earth under my feet." These lines depict the singer's pain of losing the freedom and joy that came with flight. The second verse talks about the possibility of regaining those wings with the help of someone special. The lines "Open your eyes, and I will rush into them like the sky / And I will collect your tear-drops into diamonds / And every moment that was missed from being with you / I will bring it back a hundredfold" shows the singer's desire to fly again with the help of their beloved. The chorus talks about the importance of sharing emotions and pain and not keeping them bottled up. "Do not be afraid to be alone, I am behind your back / I count the time quietly / And, like a white snow, I will cover you like a wing / From the fifth of April, from the melting ice. / Do not hide your sadness, let it spill / As a purple drop onto pieces of ice / Let it go, for it will come back anyway / It doesn't need wings: it is already light (easy)."
The song addresses themes of pain, loss, love, and healing. The lyrics suggest that it is essential to share one's feelings and sadness with someone because it helps in the process of healing. The song also talks about the importance of hope, which can make one face life's struggles with courage and positivity. Lastly, it portrays a sense of longing and loss that comes when people lose something valuable.

Разрежь мне под лопаткой кожу –
Cut my skin under my shoulder blade -
Там притомились два моих крыла,
There lies folded two of my wings,
Ведь воздух был когда-то мне дороже,
Because air was once more precious to me,
Чем под ногами твёрдая земля...
Than the solid ground beneath my feet...
Открой глаза, и я ворвусь в них, словно в небо,
Open your eyes and I'll rush in like into the sky,
И соберу слезинки в бриллиант,
And I'll turn my tears into diamonds,
И каждый миг, когда с тобой я не был,
And every moment when I wasn't with you,
Себе верну сторицею назад...
I'll go back by one hundred times...
Не бойся быть одна, я за твоей спиною,
Don't be afraid to be alone, I am behind you,
Я тихо времени считаю бег
I silently count the running time,
И белым снегом, как крылом, тебя укрою
And I'll cover you with white snow, like with a wing,
От пятого апреля, от талых бед...
From the fifth of April, from the melting troubles...
Не прячь свою печаль, пускай она прольётся
Don't hide your sadness, let it spill out
Пурпурной каплей на кусочки льда...
Like a purple drop onto ice pieces...
Пускай она идёт, ведь всё равно вернётся,
Let it go, because it will come back anyway,
Ей крылья не нужны – она и так легка
It doesn't need wings - it already is light
(Легка, легка, легка, легка,
(Light, light, light, light,
Легка, легка, легка, легка,
Light, light, light, light,
Легка, легка, легка, легка,
Light, light, light, light,
Легка, легка, легка, легка)...
Light, light, light, light)...
Ты режешь под лопаткой кожу –
You cut the skin under my shoulder blade -
Там вместо крыльев два уродливых крючка...
There instead of wings is two hideous hooks...
Теперь я не могу летать, но всё же
Now I can't fly, yet
Когда-то мог, и это всё, пока
Once I was able and that's all for now
(Пока, пока, пока, пока,
(For now, for now, for now, for now,
Пока, пока, пока, пока,
For now, for now, for now, for now,
Пока, пока, пока, пока,
For now, for now, for now, for now,
Пока, пока, пока, пока)...
For now, for now, for now, for now)...
