The Iron curtain was such an emotional scar throughout Europe in the 80s. I grew up knowing almost nothing about the countries in Eastern Europe, except that the Warsaw pact border guards would kill anyone that tried to escape to Western Europe. And it's taken me so long to finally learn more about that half of my continent, I finally traveled around East Europe this summer.
That takes me back to the Cold War with the USSR it is a dated song however it hold a little historical value. Nice comment from you giving an out dated song some fresh. Interpretation. ❤😊
I have the 7 inch vinyl sleeve of Nikita signed by Fred Mandel (synthesiser) David Paton (bass) and Dave Mattacks (drums). It hangs proudly on my bedroom wall 🧱. C. 04 - 23
Song composed in the cold war period, in a time in wich east and west Europe were deeply divided. But it seems the hope of Elton John is been satisfied.
It is a very good song. Of course he has a ton of great songs such as "Someone Saved My Life Tonight", "The Bitch Is Back", "Dixie Lilly", "Grow Some Funk Of Your Own" and plenty more.
Forgot to mention, the tin soldier is a a metaphor for a group of soldiers who will follow orders no matter what! The expression was dubbed at the hight of the Cold War between the soviet union and Western Europe/ US. President Nixon had 10 soldiers follow orders in Four Kent State University students were killed and nine were injured on May 4, 1970, when members of the Ohio National Guard opened fire on a crowd gathered to protest the Vietnam War. Neil Young wrote another song “Ohio” ((I think is better)👍
How does a gay man get a date with a Russian woman? Hang out by the Berlin Wall & then take her to England to watch your mid-table team play. The Fez always made laugh as well.

A timeless classic.

Nikita is a fine looking woman with gorgeous eyes!

Counting ten tin soldiers in a row means exactly that. Nikita is a Russian soldier just as in the music video.
