Song Meaning of “Uezzhaem v rodnoe selo” by Vladimir Nechaev
‘Uezzhaem v rodnoe selo’ is a song about going back to one’s home town. For Vladimir Nechaev it evokes a sense of nostalgia; the beauty of his childhood memories coming back to him like the coming of spring. He remembers the roads he used to travel, the friends he used to play with and the family he had back in his home town.
Although he is excited to be going back to his beloved hometown, he also acknowledges the bittersweet feeling of returning, as it’s laced with the sadness of knowing he can’t go back to the past, that he can never return as the same person he was before. He muses whether the same people, places and memories that he holds dear are still the same. But, he takes solace in the certainty that his home still stands waiting for him.
This song celebrates the small joys of life that have echoed in his heart throughout his travels and echoes his hopes that these beloved memories still exist in his home town. He embraces the nostalgia of going back to his roots, of rediscovering the beauty of his home and the people that he holds dear. It is a song of celebration and recognition for what was and what still is.
