Unofficial video for "Like the Moon" by Future Islands.
Footage is from the 1981 Russian sci-fi film, "To the Stars by Hard Ways."

This has got to be my favourite unofficial music video to a song.
Adore this film, saw it as a child, still absolutely awesome in 2024
"Через тернии к звёздам" фильм 1980 года режиссёра Ричарда Викторова по сценарию Кира Булычёва (СССР).
What a unique voice! I really appreciate the emotional investment the singer has put into this song. I feel connected.
Bear Boy yeh i do like that about it he doesn't sound like he's jerking around with this situation.
made my day
Have you seen him dance? It's not only vocale emotional investment.
Makes me think if Dracula formed a modern band or something
He's like this with every song he sings. He just throws his entire body into every lyric. He's a sweaty mess halfway through his concert performances because of the energy he blasts into his song.
the movie's name is "to the stars by hard way " directed and co-written by Richard Viktorov and Nicolai Viktorov
I struggled so hard to fine ENG subtitles to see it, did not regret it. It's almost on par with Tarkovsky's Solaris.
Also called "Through the Thorns to the Stars" (1981) ruclips.net/video/bRKzF1xMluQ/видео.html
Thanks I was glad to watch this movie
Thank you
Русские вперед!
the way he pumps out "she knows me too well" hits deep, she knew really knew me better than I did and I miss her more than the moon
Приятно видеть родной фильм под такую высококлассную музыку!
Спасибо всем деятелям искусства ! )))
Спб 🖐🏻
А что за фильм? Я смотрела на космодроме по русский были написаны планеты.

This song and video feels like one of those strange dreams you wake up from that makes you feel indifferent.
indifferent?
@@Maria-up2yv "indifferent?" ?
@@Maria-up2yv indifferent, you know.. not different? If you had a dream where you were the girl, then you might wake up feeling like a drop in the ocean, with nothing special to offer the world. Thats how I interpreted it.
same
Phillip Dennis pretty sure it’s made for people tripping lol
Wonderful music video!👍
I watched this sci-fi "Per Aspera Ad Astra"/ "Сквозь Тернии к Звездам" (1981) in my childhood and remember that I was completely mesmerized by these big beautiful intelligent eyes of Neeya (actress Elena Metelkina). They were like dark infinite space itself...
There is something in the film, which makes it still magnetic and "immortal" to me even after 30 years. Highly recommended!
For me this video is so perfect that I consider it as the official for this song.
Thank you so much for doing it, I also watched the movie!
The video is from a movie?
@@amitsingh3396 Are scenes from the Russian movie "to the stars" by hard ways (1981)
@@julianajeronimo6691 Soviet, not Russian.
I never expected the scenes from "To The Stars In Hard Ways" made into such an excellent music video! Empathetic! Fantastic! Wow!
The woman in the Russian sci fi movie is Yelena Metyolkina. For an actor of the time, she had a distinctly alien vibe, and before acting was a model for GUM, the big Soviet department store. Russian sci fi is a rabbit hole worth falling down - the filmmakers had to be careful to avoid running into the buzz saw of censorship, so they were very allegorical and crafty. Often with the low budgets, they had to pare down special effects and crank up storytelling. As a result, some of the films are truly haunting and spectacular. This film (Через тернии к звёздам) is one of those, but check out Letters from a Dead Man and of course Solaris and Stalker from Tarkovsky.
I heard this song and searched for it by using the lyrics. Now, I am curious about the movie. I appreciate your information and thoughts about the Russian sci-fi films. Thank you.
Every once in a while you find a song that is so perfect and masterful that it really makes you take a step back and just sit in awe. This song is that for me, it comes so damn rarely, but I guess that's what makes that fateful discovery so great. If I got it all the time, it would only serve to cheapen the wonder. It's a full moon out...
This song introduced me to the Islands. Will LOVE forever!And ever.
This video combined with the music is one of the best I've seen in my life. Good job.
you're right, this dude definitely got it ❤
I can't hear this without the video!
does anyone know the name of the movie?
@@aSrRx96 damn I've watched it a couple years ago because of this video and now I don't remember anymore what the name was :D

It's a bit naive, but still. I liked it very much when I was little.
For some reason as a kid, I always thought that The Fifth Element might have been inspired by this old film. I know this is probably not true... but...
This video gives me such a 'watching MTV after midnight in the 90's and discovering a great unknown artist'.
The imagery fitted so seamlessly with the music, I don't know if there's an official video, but if not, this one should be it!
This makes me cry every time. I feel like her on this planet that we are turning into Mars again.
I feel the same ... and like Your comment a lot !
Never again light : )
Finally a comment that even acknowledges this. I hate people.
Oh don't worry! We're turning Earth into Venus. Mars is much too cold for what our politicians have in mind.
I can't stop listening to this song and really feel his voice. Great voice.. awesome band
Smack of David Bowie !!! I'm 67 and I feel like I'm in highschool. Your generation is kinda keeping so many flames alive. Panic in the disco brought me here. And for me U're Is My Freddie Mercury !!!
Hey just wanted to let you know you are extremely cool
OH GOODNESS! I've never found such an exponential archive of songs! With so much pure EMOTIONS! such pure PASSION!!!! OH MY GOD! PLEASE KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING! ITS ALL SO GORGEOUS! ITS LIKE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING IVE EVER SEEN!
Спасибо!! Это лучшее что я видел связанное с этим фильмом и другой культурой.
Over 3 years later and this is still fabulous!
Thank you.
Whoa! The song itself is good, but with this scenes? Mesmerising! What a fine work of art!
Is it from a movie?
@@texasboy1457 yes
@@carlosjavierruizgomez6571 which?
In the description it says to the stars the hard way ✨️
@@texasboy1457 English title is "Per Aspera Ad Astra". Soviet movie, 1981.
Fun fact: This movie was on Mystery Science Theater 3000 under the title "Humanoid Woman" on the KTMA-TV days of the show. The edit was obviously butchered by the distribution company "Sandy Frank", but it is quiet a visually stunning movie.
Fabulous artistry, to put this beautiful film to the talent of Future Islands, it fits so perfectly.
Love this song!!! I can listen to over and over again without getting tired!!!!
She looks like the moon
She says, "it's your eyes"
She sees everything
She knows me too well
She looks like the day
She says, "it's the light"
Something in the way, she says, "goodbye"
And she looks like the moon
So close and yet, so far
She says everything
She knows me too well
And I can call you, "friend"
And I can be the world
Silent chatter held
I won't be around
And I can be a friend
But I won't be around
Silent chatter, bound
Just don't push me out
She looks like the moon
She says, "it's your eyes"
She says everything
She knows me too well
And I can call you, "friend"
But I won't be around
Silent chatter, bound
Just don't push me out
We don't have to speak tonight
Just don't say, "goodbye"
Making a home in my body
Letting it grow in my body
Taking these chains from my body
Letting it go from my body
Letting it go from me body
Taking these chains from my body
Is harder than you know
She looks like the moon
She says, "it's your eyes"
She says everything
She knows me too well
And she looks like the day
She says, "it's the light"
Something in the way, she says, "goodbye"
Just don't say goodbye
I can be the world, tonight

what a cool film, the dp is a wizard. Came for the music and found two gems.
make it 3 gems, your editing did great pairing the music to the images.
I know I stumbled upon this years ago and visiting it again today it’s so nostalgic I love this so much
Dude you're freaking amazing I love your videos so genius !
thanks so much, glad you dig 'em:)
***** Hells YES dude!
Please do more Mac Demarco songs! I love your editing dude!
Totally agreed.
The video is from a Soviet scifi movie
David Dean Burkhart je suis votre fan. Superb music
Just stumbled upon your channel and i'm immediately subscribed, awesome work dude
thanks man:)

Yeah...this sends me back to youthful days of scifi and great music...
I did the same :9
***** Im spacing out on a friday

This got that 80s soft rock vibe I LOVE IT
Can't stop playing it in loop! Simply, amazing
Phenomenal Song and Video!!! One of my all time favorites-- Seriously!! Thank You Future Islands and David Burkhart
This is a Soviet movie
Another great video! This channel has introduced me to a ton of great new music. Keep it up.
always appreciate the kind words and support man.
Sounds so like 80's dark wave. Love it.
Nunca la había escuchado, se convierte más todavía en mi banda favorita .
Crei que era el unico que hablaba español aqui...
ufff si escuharas sus demas canciones

Beautiful... Thank god they exist
Ребята! Это потрясно!
Incredible combination of editing & music.
Wow... great music, synth melodies and soviet sci fi. Perfect
Love it!
I love this...every single thing about it I just love.
Que bien lo hacen estos señores musicalmente, y la película que aparece en el vídeo ni hablar! Lo máximo!.
Это вам не Марвел и не DC
Эт глубокая философия советского кино
Но создавший клип американец что то понял
И вот он шедевр!!!
И куда привела эта философия? Планета в еще большем дерьме, чем раньше. Когда я думаю об океане, о мегатоннах пластика, которые разрывают желудки китам и дельфинам, мне становится почти так же плохо как Нийе.

You're such a genius David !
thanks so much Lisa ♡
6 years now David, just reliving the memories.
Memories with this song... 💙
Every time I hear a new song of Future islands (new for me) makes me love their music more and more... they are now one of my top music bands
Very hard to describe how much I like it. Music and video are brilliantly synthesized!
Very deep and sensual both vid and music. Bravo author!
will watch that movie.
this is just beautiful i have no words.. the visuals and the music itself..now i'm few steps from tears of joy
Instrumentally influenced by David Bowie and an overwhelming cinematographic experience! Lots of great music and cinema references! A job well done! Loved it!
God, this the best voice in an indie band I've ever heard, it has so much expression!
I can watch this over and over!! Wish I knew more Russian to watch the film!
+Buried Muse One thing you can do is learn the Russian alphabet. It's actually pretty easy and gives you a lot more understanding of what's going on.
What movie is it?
Per Aspera Ad Astra, and the USA screen name - Through the Thorns to the Stars (1981)
doo doom thank you :)
You can watch by using subtitles
Can’t believe it’s taken me so long to watch this video ~ visually stunning especially with the music - such a clever
edit!! Bravo!!!
Через тернии к звёздам
Помним знаем 👍🎻🐬✔
i love this video-- as someone who has suffered trauma, the video of the girl having flashbacks to pollution of her world while actively living on a planet that is free from such, paired with the singers longing of closeness with a woman out of reach makes this feel too close to me. i relate the visions of pollution to the pain that comes with a close relationship, how awful it can get when you least expect, despite being something that is meant to bring comfort, so you shut out the possibility. the scene especially where the man reaches out to the woman to come into the water, and the woman just stares blankly as she has a flashback. This is something that happens often with my partner, where i will just stare blankly and feel hallow and he'll try to get through to me but he cant-- and ill feel bad about it worrying if he thinks its him or his fault that hes not enough- which triggers even worse thoughts and flashbacks. so yeah with that perspective i get really emotional watching this-- i see myself in that alien woman a lot, just by simply being alien. Even down to the part where she flinches at the prospect of touch
Very good stuff. I so wish I was just a little bit as creative as u. The visuals remind me of the feeling I get when I can't remember if I've seen something on television when awaking from a dream, or if i`ve really seen it long ago from my childhood.
Still WATCHING.. RESPECT..

Letting it go from my body
Letting it go from my body
Taking these chains from my body
It’s harder than you know
She looks like the moon
She says “It’s your eyes”

She knows me too well
And she looks like the day
She says “It’s the light”
Something in the way, she says “goodbye”
Just don’t say goodbye
I can be the world, tonight…

Why?😂
Thank you.
that feeling when you find a new song you understand with your soul and one that understands you too ahhhh thank you to the shrub whom recommended this band to me this video is perfect. she actually does look like the moon. I am so in love with this moment I could bring myself to tears. July 17 the month I found this song...
I heard this song for the first time about two years ago, I haven’t heard it in what seems like forever. I forgot the band’s name, the song and the lyrics.. I have been searching for it because I loved it so much and there was just something about it, but the only thing I could really remember was the female, how unique the guy’s voice is and something about a moon.. it’s 4am I’m trying to sleep but I really want to know this song and so I tried sing it in my head (to think of a beat or think of lyrics), what the song was called or the band’s name, I wanted something.. then I thought “what if I try she’s like the moon” that sounds about right... and I see it.. it’s her.. my heart stopped and I felt so happy and relieved.. I still love this song and I can’t believe I actually found it lol I thought I lost it forever, I’m glad I didn’t.
Really should be official. Very well done editing.
Yelena Metyolkina is mesmerizingly beautiful!
whenever i play my playlist...this song has to be played...to my teenage kids detriment. i know when im gone it'll be one of their favorites...KNOW IT!
Instrumentalmente influenciado por David Bowie e várias referências cinematográficas! Excelente experiência audiovisual!!

Has a very Bowie vibe into it.
+Franco De Rose I was literally just thinking the same XD
+Franco De Rose Right...? I stated this a year ago. On another video. Just good music bro, only thing we have until the end.

Get out lol Future Islands are great, very proud of them as a Baltimore resident, but Bowie is a legend.
