Deeper
I.Ryazanov Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another step up
It's takin', takin', takin', takin' long
Always digging
It's gettin' getting', getting', get it on
Wherever you stand, just start to walk

Everywhere you go, goes round and round
It's coming back to what I know
The deep deep deeper we go
Feeling alone but it's oh so simple
Let it go
Dim dim dim the light's low but not blind
I can see the symbol, let it show
Mighty story
Don't hide it from me
いつだって人は迷うんだって
気付いちゃったって 知らんぷりしていよう
そして good good days

僕らは生まれてから so 多くを学び
死に近づくにつれて多くを忘れ
気付いた時にゃもう灰になってる
生きた証を残しておくには モノじゃ無くて
「誰かの記憶に残るような人生をお薦めします」

The deep deep deeper we go
Feeling alone but it's oh so simple
Let it go
Dim dim dim the light's low but not blind
I can see the symbol, let it show
Mighty story
Don't hide it from me
いつだって人は迷うんだって
気付いちゃったって 知らんぷりしていよう
そして good good days

物事には so どんな時だって
オマケのノビシロがついていて!
何かを築きそして変えて越えて!
奇跡と言う名の必然を繰り返して! 上へ

We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here
We never, we never
We will not stop right here (so choose wisely)

Do what you do gotta get through

へたれてる時間なんて微塵も無いぞ
後悔しないように生きる
そんな風に生きたって悔いは残るさ
長いものに巻かれて終わる?
いやそれどころか巻いて終わるのさ
予測すらできやしない猛スピードで
ほら good good-bye





Someday, someday

Overall Meaning

The song Deeper by I.Ryazanov talks about diving deeper into life, self-discovery and facing challenges. It is a reminder of the never-ending journey of self-discovery that we are all on. The lyrics suggest that life is a journey that requires consistent effort and determination, and that even though it may be hard and difficult, it's vital to keep going regardless of the obstacles.


The opening line, "Another step up it's takin', takin', takin', takin' long" suggests that the journey is slow and time-consuming, but it's still worth it. The line "The deep, deep, deeper we go, feeling alone but it's oh so simple, let it go" implies that the process of self-discovery can be lonely, but it’s also necessary to let go of some things to move forward. The line "Dim, dim, dim, the light's low but not blind, I can see the symbol, let it show" is symbolically suggestive that even when life gets difficult, and we may feel like we can't see a way out, we should have faith that there is still a symbol of hope.


In summary, the song Deeper encourages us to persevere through life's challenges, stay focused, and trust our inner selves to guide us. We should use our experiences to grow and never stop moving forward.

Hello, it is me again.

I thought I would try a different film, and chose your first selection. As with the previous posting, I watched the complete film first. I didn't realize it would be a three-hour investment in time. :o)

This is what we would call in America a 'RomCom', short for romantic comedy, or sometimes known as a 'chick flick'. Don't worry, this isn't a slam, I like them every once in a while.

I have to watch with subtitles on, but I don't find that to be distracting.

I got the point with the animated intro, and how the mix-up occurred. I didn't catch the mistake about getting on the plane in place of Pavel. I thought that, being quite drunk, he decided to run away again. I came to understand what really happened about the same time he did.

I did wonder why he became so inebriated when it didn't seem that he had had that much to drink, and Russians are believed to hold their vodka better than that. I decided later that he was serious about not being a heavy drinker normally. With his being a surgeon that would make sense.

The various misunderstandings, the please-go / please-stay turns, and the final outcome were all very predictable, but these films always are predictable and we expect that. These aren't Mission Impossible mysteries. The point is to enjoy how the performers portray realistic characters in true-to-life (mostly) circumstances.

To that end, I think Barbara Brylska did the best job. Andrey Myagkov was good enough in this role, but not as believable, and at times a little annoying (sorry, just my opinion). It seems that he passed away just a few months ago in February, but you probably know that.

In America we have what are known as 'Lifetime movies', the name coming from the name of the cable television channel that features them. Their Christmas films are always the most popular, and run continuously through November, December, and the first part of January. In July, in the middle of summer, they run them again for about two weeks (I think) as a 'Christmas in Summer' event. {{{ sigh }}}

These films are very similar in format and predictability, but no one cares, and are mostly popular with women aged forty and above. Husbands watch to please their wives. :o)

Two quick notes about this film:

I wondered at first why the trees were going up in homes on New Year's Eve, then remembered that in Russia, Christmas is celebrated in January. True? Your review suggests that, at some time past, the holidays were repositioned jointly. Does that mean Christmas (the secular holiday) and Christmas (the religious observance) are separate?

I disagree with your statement that, in the end, the guy wins the girl. I think it is obvious that she was smarter than that, and in this case the girl got the guy, but she let him think otherwise. :o)



@lawrencedavis9246

@Soviet Movies Explained I am not a YouTube channel owner, and I am not sure for what purpose you included the list of categories, but if they are intended to be metatags then you might not have them formatted correctly. Shouldn't they be prefaced with the pound symbol (hash character), and perhaps a bit more generic, such as:

#russianmovies #sovietmovies #russianfilms #sovietfilms
#russiantelevision #soviettelevision #russianculture #sovietculture
#russianpeople #lifeinussr #russiannewyear

The idea is to get a match on the most likely metatags.

btw: if I seemed unfair to Myagkov and his character Zhenya, but kinder to Brylska and her character Nadya, it might be that she is a lot more attractive, and she made the character of Nadya more endearing.

If you try to say that I might have been falling in love with Nadya, you might be correct, but if you repeat it I will hunt you down and break all your pencils. You won't be able to design a doll house. :o) :o) :o)

I have watched this film dozens of times since it was given to me by a Russian friend after my first trip to Russia in 2002. I feel like it takes me back to Moscow before all the skyscrapers in Moscow City, new, sterile metro stops and mega malls……! Love your explanation of little details and would enjoy even more background on the settings!

@adityasanthanam1945

I very much enjoy this film and watch it every new year. In my mind, Zhenya and Nadya stay together. Also, I definitely agree with the advice to avoid the 2007 sequel at all costs. Thank you for making these videos, I have enjoyed Soviet films for quite some time now, but have only now found this channel and I very much enjoy it. It would be nice for you to make videos on "Карнавальная ночь," another New Year film I quite like and "А зори здесь тихие," a great WWII film.

@SovietMoviesExplained

Thank you! That makes me really happy 🤗.

@donnajohnson9834

I have watched this film many, many times, but I still really enjoyed your review of all the magic moments!!

@SovietMoviesExplained

Thank you 🤗
I am happy to enrich your experience of the movie 😊
And how come that you watched it so many times? For foreigners seldom make it through even one viewing 😅

@johnnywoodmusic

I love how dark the transitional rooms are. It's like theatre.

@Skimeric

Greetings from New York! I am upset that I only found this video after I started making my own of a similar nature. I was going to create a cultural + literary analysis of Irony of Fate, but I think now I am going to lean more towards prose and subtext. I don't want to just repeat what you said. I learned so much from your video, and only dream that some day my visuals and writing will come near in quality to yours. I will have to make sure to credit your video within my own to avoid plagiarism, but again, I write to thank you for doing what you are doing with your channel. I was hoping that analyzing Soviet movies was a niche unconquered in the forest of content that is YouTube, and while I am disappointed that I can no longer take that niche myself, I am relieved that there is someone as dedicated and passionate as yourself who got there first. Please keep doing what you are doing. I'm off to watch the rest of your stuff now. I will shill for you to my Soviet history professors.

@SovietMoviesExplained

Oh, wow! Sorry that I pulled the rug 😅.
But it's very cool that such an idea didn't only come to me (thus proving that it's not just me being weird 🤣).
No one else does such a format, afaik, but you are very welcome to join the ploughing of this vast field - there's more than enough for several people.
We can do a collab someday 😉.
Are you studying cinema then?

Greetings from Berlin (and Moscow), my sister-in-law lives in NY, I've been there twice 🗽

@KinoKotFilms

I understand if some people don't like this film and watch it for nostalgia's sake, but how can anyone dislike Olivier salad! Sacrilege! Thank you for a great video. There are many cultural-specific moments here that require clarifying for a non-Russian/Soviet viewer.

@SovietMoviesExplained

Well, I don't particularly like Olivier... 😜
