According to the script, the Paragate is the gate that gives rise to ill-defined internal struggles. In facing up to and battling these internal struggles, the two girls of t.A.T.u. are trying to bring about changes in themselves and open up a new world. More information in Japanese at The t.A.T.u. Paragate Official Site.
It is a huge file and I have been told it is Russian with no subtitles. I am led to believe that it is the entire video, but it will take me about a week to download it before I find out. LOL.
Shapovalov: “What do we want? What do we want for the American press? What kind of reaction are we looking for? What do we want? What do we want for Tatu’s PR? What’s the aim of PR?
Guy: Shock!
Shapovalov: Shock? They... in that case they should shock on that NBC show. Do you agree?
Guy: Absolutely! On MTV! And then on TRL show!
Shapovalov: And...What do you think about the relationship between love and war?
Guy: Yes, I think… you know Sheryl Crow always wears T-shirts that have some sort of message... against war…
Shapovalov: We can make a message too!
Guy: Yes.
Shapovalov: What message?
Guy: I think it should be in Russian. It’ll draw more attention from the audience. It’ll interest them to figure out what it says
Shapovalov: *thinking* Ahhhh! *thinking* Maybe we can write: “**** war”? ("D*ck to war" literally). Ha ha ha… And we will say that it means "No War!"
Beata: What... what did you say?
Shapovalov: We will write “**** war”
Beata: Yea, lets write "**** War"!... *Laughing*
Shapovalov: **** war...
[Silly Laughing]
Beata: Let's write "Love and... work"
Shapovalov (while writing): Of course, let's do it ...we create!
Beata: We gave rise to an idea, and we’ll write it down.
Guy: OK. Looks good. That means "No war"? ....(Translator: Oh so that's how you write "No War" in Russian! )
(all getting up and leaving)
Guy: I'll... see you both tomorrow.
Ivan: See you
Beata: See you tomorrow
[“Show me love” music]
Pasha: “You’re going to die here during the summer!” (i think he is referring to how hot it is )
Yulia: “I understand that. I’m not saying I am going to live here, Pasha. We came here for a week to relax and then go back to Moscow.”
Pasha: Are these your bags?
Yulia: Yes.
Dave(the translator): New York Times said this was some kind of paedophile’s business… child pornography… but Vanya usually gives the answer… he says “no, that there is no pornography involved, the girls are young, and youth is something wonderful, we are just developing their talent, and that we want the whole world to know this”… you should just read it, it’s written well …
Julia: This is so cool. Did you see it? Oops! look it spins around...
Pasha: First line.. go! What did they say?
[Talk about Iraq on TV]
Yulia: Hi, we want to.. breakfast. Ok, have you cornflakes with milk and one omlett with bacon? Thank you..
[phone rings]
Ivan: So… yes...Seriog (name)… second line there…
Julia: I told mommy because... like, I couldn’t hide it... because I realized that I had to go to the hospital for a day... I had to stay there after the whole procedure... it was very hard, of course… [cut, can disappears] The doctors said that everything is different for different people, some start in two weeks into the time… I started eating like a wolf, I stated eating everything, nuts and everything, all together,I wanted to eat... I had a dizziness and I thought to myself: “Something is strange here” ... I had stripes. Then I thought that I need to run to the doctor’s as soon as possible. It’s was horrible...[cut, can reappears] I understand that I have a career, my work, if God gave me this chance to be famous and sing, why not?... [cut, can disappears again] Imagine that there is a little child there, very small... Of course I cried a lot at that time...
[Phone rings]
Lena: “At the confession... I told him/gave away everything.… [toilet flush]… and now he....is like my priest... and when I go there I always get to talk to him... he recommended a book.... One of them I bought but have not read it yet... the other one he gave me and said: “Bring it back later... i hope a month is enough to read it”. I said "Of course it's enough"... I read it and liked it so much... and while I was reading I understood so much...
[in a car - Lena on a cell phone]
Lena: Listen, imagine, we worked in t-shirts that say "**** War" for the show and today they broadcast it... They said "group Tatu.. Russian duo in order to protest against the war in Iraq appeared wearing t-shirts with curse words". We went on the biggest show in USA in T-shirts that said “**** War.....it was cool.. Yes, yes, they shouldn't f*cking do it!. Here it is f*cking 20 degrees - 30 degrees in the sun! ....Listen (to Yulia) I say it is 30 degrees here and he is telling me: 'and I will make it 50 degrees here for you'. ... but I understood ... I wouldn’t be against it.... Yulia is saying (Lena is repeating what Yulia just said for the person on the phone): ' Who would doubt your passionate love! (love for Lena) " .... I do too/you too.. very very much.... it is true, I am happy ... I’ll be overjoyed every time until I sh*t my pants and jump to the ceiling... and we are passing such nice homes, very cool .... (ATTSS starts playing on the radio) .. OHHH, our song is on the radio .. Oppaaaaaaaa.... our song is on the radio "
[ATTSS song]
Shapovalov: After the action “**** War” will we get a “National Artist”? In Russia? I mean the World! Will they give us a Nobel… Nobel peace prize? They should give Tatu a Nobel prize for the action!
Julia: What are you saying?
Shapovalov: Let’s stir this up, ah? lets stir it up. Two girls will be Nobel prize winners…it'll be a f*cking great story!
Shapovalov: (In the car) It’s not the action “**** War” itself that deserves the prize, it’s the project which broke all the limits... understand?... It broke the limits and we don't know why... Russia...it has certaily changed Russia’s image towards a more peaceful direction, the direction of love… the whole meaning of it - not the "**** War" action.
[Screaming fans] (awww, those kids.. in their desire to say things in russian, one says: 'We love Ourselves'.. while trying to say 'We love You' )
[Ivan + Beata smoking up]
[he is mumbling couple of words at the end.. am not sure what]
[in the limo]
Ivan: can you make it more? ...up.. up upppp... yes yes yes.. more .. more moreeeeeeeeee...
Yulia: NO!
[Ivan dancing ]
Yulia: Vanya, sit down.
[Ivan putting the t-shirts on the wall]
Ivan: well, it is fine...
[somewhere in the streets of London]
Guy in red jacked: (broken Russian) But, who are you? you came to England.. to London... being our guest... you are our
guest...a guest in our town...
Ivan: yes...
Guy: 'who are you… who’re you'... Who are you, tell me please!
Ivan: but why... why...
Guy: What do you mean ‘why’?!
Ivan: why... cant you see who I am?.
Guy: Well, I see that you are a person, but I want to know who I am talking to.
[yelling with the car driver]
Guy: I am giving you my soul...I... I... I am yours... I am.. Maro [Secondname] .. yes? Tell me who you are.. I don’t know the names.. ta-ta-ta-ta-da .. Who are you? Tell me...what do you do?
[Ivan eating at the window]
Ivan: I came to Moscow to work for an advertising company... This company planned some things in Moscow, but things didn’t work out for them... and i was basically left on my own...and that was hard....
Yulia: The most scary thing in life for me is to loneliness.. i am not even afraid of dying.. but i am afraid to be left alone... because i think...[showing Lena smoking].. I wouldn't be able to live/survive if I ended up alone..
Lena: I am such an egoist...
Ivan: I didn’t have any experience as a producer.. At one time I used to be a taxi driver on my "Devyatka" then I led a preelection campaign for one deputat (senator) and we had a victory. Well in general.. i was doing something for others. I see people... doing some sort of projects for themselves... and i out of the air.. made this images for them and their projects I didn't want to make it for others so t.A.T.u. ends up like my brand.. what I did on my own... In 1998 there was a crisis in the country, there was no comercials but everything was cheap. So we wrote a few songs.. 30 000 for the album and 30 000 for the first video And for 60 000 the project started... it had not payed off by then but it started as a project....
Yulia: You see, when the project started... yes?... from one point of view, an image ...of two girls madly in love with each other...yes... Maybe from this point of view... this for me was very unusual/weird... because i had never thought of girls in that way... yes... Although it did not come as a shock and I was ok about it, i just couldn’t percieve it. However, at one point, I did percieve/understand it... I really liked a girl! At one point I realized that I had [love] feelings for a girl.. yes?... And I thought: "Damn, In project t.A.T.u. ... whereas I had never thought of [loving a girl] before, I realized that it is possible for me to love a girl"... We didn't have any sex but there have been feelings, as when we kissed we had [love] feelings.
Ivan: I told the composer that they are crazy... crazy... and they gave me about five versions of the song... and Lena.. a girl which… which i was involved with at that moment in time...she... wrote: "Ya soshla s uma= I've lost my mind'' ..what else... 'Ya soshla s uma' .. um.. that lyric was kept...and I added: 'mne nuzhna ona = I need her'.. and from there .. that's how the song became alive...
Lena: I still don’t understand how she fought it... it took a long time. How to kiss… mom was running like crazy… but I understood to myself that it was a commercial moment… that it was… However, if we are to be serious about this… that at this age of 14, 15… we talked with my mom about this… this friendship between two girls… It's about everyone!.. everyone who has a friend, best friend… you don’t understand what you feel - whether it is friendship or love. It's a very "inbetween" kind of feeling, There is a thin line between these two feelings, and on this line… [cut]
Have you seen the video Angel? Is it worth me downloading? It is so long and now that I have read the transcript, I don't know if I need to see it. If anyone has watched it, let me know. Cheers!
Hey schmiggens, I haven't seen it but Misery did and she saids its very good to watch especially when Yulia orders breakfast in english. SHE IS SOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!! But I downloaded and I heard everything just couldn't see it, dam my computer!!
Who's the voice's of the girls in the paragate??? Aren't the girls gonna play themselves? Man that will be wierd if they don't on the other hand, the voice don't even matter or do they???
It says "secret". I don't know, just have to wait for it come out I guess.
I thought they would do their own voices too, but I guess if they have to dub it over in Japanese or English, it might be eaasier to use a Japanese person? I don't know. It will be interesting though.
