Louna's new videoclip was released today. As soon as I watched I didn't even need to read the lyrics to understand what it was about. The images spoke for themselves.
The main message is: we were polluting the planet for so long that this day was inevitable to come. Mother Earth is enacting its revenge on us. Or Vendetta (Вендетта), which is the title of the song.
Will we repent ourselves and change our ways... or will we stay as stubborn as we always were and keep heading towards the abyss?
Check out the video here:
Here are the lyrics for the song:
Russian | English |
---|---|
Миллионы мертвых тел, килотонны ржавых стрел, | Millions of dead bodies, kilotons of rusty arrows, |
Едкий смог шоссейных трасс, дым и копоть нефтебаз. | Caustic smog highway roads, smoke and soot oil depots. |
Наше иго столько лет отравляет белый свет, | Our yoke has been poisoning white light for so many years, |
Наше эго с давних пор превращает в фарс позор. | Our ego has long been a shame to farce. |
Алчность, деньги, слава - это порок, | Greed, money, fame is a vice, |
Сажа, пепел, лава - это урок. | Carbon black, ashes, lava is a lesson. |
В нашей дуэли с природой последний звонок, | In our duel with nature, the last bell, |
Кто из нас первым успеет нажать на курок? | Whom of us will be the first to pull the trigger? |
Всё до дна, всё под корень, всё на убой, | Everything to the bottom, everything under the root, everything for slaughter, |
Не сожрем, так зароем рядом с собой | Do not gobble up, so dawn near you |
В черных пятнах от нефти наши моря, | Our seas are black spots of oil, |
Что оставим мы детям после себя? | What will we leave to the children after ourselves? |
Миллионы мертвых тел, килотонны ржавых стрел, | Millions of dead bodies, kilotons of rusty arrows, |
Едкий смог шоссейных трасс, дым и копоть нефтебаз. | Caustic smog highway roads, smoke and soot oil depots. |
Наше иго столько лет отравляет белый свет, | Our yoke has been poisoning white light for so many years, |
Наше эго с давних пор превращает в фарс позор. | Our ego has long been a shame to farce. |
ПОЗОР! | SHAME! |
Град, вулканы, цунами - лишь форс-мажор, | Grad, volcano, tsunami - only force majeure, |
Мы давно подписали свой приговор, | We signed our sentence long ago, |
Объявила вендетту наша Земля, | Our Earth declared vendetta, |
И однажды планета сбросит с себя... | And one day the planet will throw ourselves off... |
Миллионы мертвых тел, килотонны ржавых стрел, | Millions of dead bodies, kilotons of rusty arrows, |
Едкий смог шоссейных трасс, дым и копоть нефтебаз. | Caustic smog highway roads, smoke and soot oil depots. |
Наше иго столько лет отравляет белый свет, | Our yoke has been poisoning white light for so many years, |
Наше эго с давних пор превращает в фарс позор. | Our ego has long been a shame to farce. |

She's barely known outside of Eastern Europe... but over Russia she's almost a legend. Lousine Gevorkian spent 10 years as the vocalist of Tracktor Bowling and now she's been the lead singer for Louna for 11 years already! 😁
