@Mahboob Van Oberstein it's not a russian film at all- film is about life of armenian poet and monk - Saiat Nova and author - Parajanovi by himself was an armenian moviemaker. The fact he lived in Soviet era doesn't makes his creations ,,russian" (I love russian cinema - nothing against it, but work of Parajanovi is clearly not russian - it's clearly built on caucasian ( georgian and armenian) christian cultures', pagan past's and persian culture's esthetics. Nor Armenia or Georgia is part of Russia and both have very strong cultural identities with longer cultural past, then Russian emperial past by itself.
@Mahboob Van Oberstein Don't need to generalize, it's wrong, you can say Armenian Soviet film, but not Russian anyway. There were 15 republics in Soviet Union , Russia one of them. The Color of Pomegranates directed in "Armenfilm" - Armenian film studio located in Yerevan, Armenia, by Armenians about Armenian poet and Armenian culture, in Armenian language (!). Its like insult to call it other way, again, call it Soviet or Soviet Armenian but not Russian.
Paradjanov's film is a true masterpiece, and this is one of the greatest music videos ever. The song is also one of the greatest electronic tracks ever made.
@@adampaul454 I would say yes it definitely is among the best. Hearing this live and loud was amazing. Of course musical tastes are subjective, but it is difficult to come away from an experience like this feeling nothing.
For people wondering about the first woman vocal, it's a Bulgarian folk song called Prituri se Planinata, quite different than the Arabic song after that.
Great song and great video, gorgeous mystical imagery. The two splice together seamlessly. Anyone notice the song's voice samples from Moses in The Ten Commandments movie?
The scene where they press the water out of the books with stones and then it shows the boy laying with them as they dry in the wind. That is so powerful. I will never get that image out of my head as long as I live.
If all the books in the world were burned, computers destroyed. Science, mathematics, physics, all things of this sort will be written again all the same. But religion would be lost.
This makes me feel in touch with a part of my brain that I did not know I had. In it, I feel what it felt like in the old eras with persian castles, the smells, the gestures, the day by day sensations and that time before one goes to sleep. And at the same time, it fills me with thoughts of a crazy calm.
This is by far the most creative and interesting piece of music that still is able to capture me. It is strange but memorizing, even the video seems to capture the song quite well, but what's amazing is that the artist did not create the video but simply put the two together. The song and movie are mysterious and in it's essence this song to me captures that fearful power of God which is great and the song on its own is poetic. You really have to be almost an artist to understand this song.
The video is actually from a 70s movie called "the colour of pomegranates." It was an artistic Armenian Independence peace, filmed during the Cold War. I recommend you look it up and watch it. :-)
When I saw this on MTV at 2am I thought there was hope for something else this good on MTV, but sadly that era would be ending soon, back in 1998 or so. I did a lot of waiting for nothing. MTV was such a cruel tease!
What I would have given to see this on mtv back in the day. I just had to get lucky. I discovered it pre-algorithm, but can’t remember how I got wind of this.
This video... This beautiful song... Could be from 1997, yes. Congratulations to the Juno Reactor artists! It feels good to hear in 2022! Thank you! Unfortunately, no one makes music like you did anymore!
Nor does Ben Watkins (aka Juno Reactor). I bought the double vinyl Bible of Dreams when it came out and was waiting with so much expectations for his next record ( I think it was "Pistolero") but I was so dissappointed.
Always loved this track! I go ape-shit crazy every time I hear it in the club! Just watched the movie & now I understand the video better! Thanks for the upload!

The background singing reminds me a lot of the music I heard on the radio in Afghanistan. I came home from my deployment and heard this song at Club Ascension in San Diego and decided to look it up. Awesome song and the video matches it very well.
Heard this on a blank cd growing up maybe 6 or 7 years old and to find it now is mind blowing with all the memories tied to the years I first heard this masterpiece
Never heard of the artist or seen their videos. Interesting vid, such imagery and cinematography. Lots of religious overtones and Babylonian atmosphere

Stealing Fire This is the original video, it's not "fanmade". Juno Reactor took some footage from "The color of Pomegranates" and made his own video, which matches perfectly with his song. Also, Nicolas Jaar made an alternative soundtrack for this film in recent times, because it's a masterpiece of surrealism and one of the most beautiful films ever made.
Thank you! Never understood why it was played at the Goth clubs, but whenever it came on I always asked someone to show me how to Macarena dance to it! Lol
the entirety of the film featured in the video is on netflix with subtitles, but beware it moves at a much more gradual pace, and should only probably be watched while stoned
Watched the entire movie(Probably obvious considering my SN) Been into them since they came out. Great movie too,amazing visuals. Thanks for explaining it to everyone!
about video (sayat nova): "This film does not attempt to tell the life story of a poet. Rather the film maker tried to recreate the poet's inner world through the trepidations of his soul, his passions and torments, widely utilizing the symbolism and allegories specific to the tradition of Medieval Armenian peot-troubadours (Ashough)"
My husband: "I feel like I'm watching mime humor." Then I found the movie used in this video, The Color of Pomegranates, and was just mesmerized. Then I realized he'd been standing behind me, watching in the same fascination.
хех, записал его на кассету с радио ещё в лихих 90-х. О были времена, добывали музыку как могли. Ща по радио крутят: попса, блатняк, клубняк (опопсённый, а не крутой) :( Благо ютуб спасает
Так же записал на кассету в свое время. Очень неодумевал и восхищался клипом. Потом понял - Параджанов, Цвет Граната...))) Интересно, где такое у тебя по радио крутят?
