Elton John - Nikita
/ eltonjohn
My name’s Nikita. And my dad loves Elton John and always jokes that he named me because this was one of his favourite songs! Such a beautiful song! 💕✨
Nikita .parabéns boa escolha de seu pai ..vc é linda igual há essa música. Muy Linda 😊
In the song, John describes his crush on a person called Nikita, a border guard whom he cannot meet because he is not allowed into the country. Though the name Nikita can refer to women in other languages, it is a male name in Russian. In interviews, John has said that he was aware about Nikita being a male name in Russian.
@@Swordin1sim eu li sobre isso de tudo jeito vc e linda. Deus abençoe
Você é privilegiada, o seu nome Nikita, é uma das canções mais lindas de Elton John.
@@Swordin1 I think it was a joke between Elton John and the then Russian Prime Minister Nikita Khrushchov
This makes me cry. Such is the beauty of the song and the 80's. We will never hear music produced like this ever again but really, that is in it's own way, part of its beauty.
True words ✌❤
Please dont cry . Totally agree 80s music 90s the best . Listen to happy songs 2 not just sad ones
I am 43 and loved this song since I was 3, so 40 years. My Dad introduced me to the song and Elton. Go Elton.
I’ve loved Elton ever since my early years in the mid 1970s. I wish I could go back to relive those incredible days. Elton is a true legend.
So my mom heard this song when she was pregnant with me and fell in love with the name and named me Nikita! So I am named after this beautiful song! Thanks so much!
That's wonderful.
Wow. It is nice
My name is Nicole but my parents call me Nikita for the same reason!
Nikita is a leftist name
like "Nikita" but missed старые добрые времена the good old times before reunion in Germany, too young...
This is my favorite Elton John song and video! I have been a fan of Elton John since the early 70’s! The woman is that video is absolutely beautiful and is proof positive that a woman doesn’t have to be scantily clad to be so beautiful! Thanks so very much for sharing your talents with us throughout the years Elton John!
She is isn't she.
@@robinclarke9978 so she's actually a man
Her name is Anya Major ( 56 ) - Former athlete, actress and model. She appeared in the Apple 1984 commercial. Her picture is my downstairs loo. An absolute stunner ! Those eyes.............
@@mehchocolate1257 so is your mom
And natural looking makeup
As i was a young boy in the 80s, the girl in the song was like an angel for me. So perfect. Today i´m 43 and i still think that she´s an angel. 🥰💘
Times of innocence.... I miss not just those times but my parents... stay strong and keep going...
She's your angel no two ways about it.✨️🕊
Crazy,im 44 years old, i was just saying to my girlfriend we should name our baby Nikita because i felt the same, this girl was an angel to me😊
Я недавно открыла для себя этот клип. Часто его слушаю, потому что замечательный. В нем все прекрасно:мелодия, молодой симпатичный Elton. И очаровательная девушка. У неё не обыкновенные глаза. ❤❤❤
Elton John is superb and in a league of his own! I'm sad to hear that he is retiring.
Elton was born Reggie Dwight on 25th March 1947 in Pinner, Middlesex (now part of the London Borough of Harrow) and he's performed many great songs including this one.
En su Liga juegan muy pokitos
I was born in 1984 and remembered bits and pieces from his songs when I was younger and since I discovered his channel recently I can't stop listening. The man's a genius
Born in december 8 1984 todo Bro . Same feeling too
Brazil Nikita 2023 XXI
One the greatest of all time
god bless
like a water in a dessert
This Man goes far beyond being a good songwriter, singer or entertainer, he is on a plane all by himself, there were so many outstanding singers but Elton is still on top.

A beautiful story, different sections which go together so well, a true masterpiece of hope and love, Bravo sir Elton !
"Nikita" é uma canção de Elton John sobre a Guerra Fria lançada no final do ano de 1985, como faixa do álbum Ice on Fire. A canção é considerada um dos maiores sucessos da carreira de John. Na canção, Elton John descreve seu amor platônico por uma guarda de fronteira da Alemanha Oriental chamada Nikita, a quem ele não pode visitar já que não tem permissão para entrar no país. O videoclipe foi dirigido por Ken Russell, com a participação de Anya Major como Nikita. Russell não percebeu que Nikita era um nome masculino na Rússia, mas Elton John aceitou o roteiro mesmo assim.

E vero
When I listen to this song I feel that the solo part of the keyboard (3:08 - 3:51) especially contains all the charm and pleasant atmosphere of the 80's, which unfortunately has already disappeared into the fog.
I feel the same energy. 😁❤️ Love this era ... 80's.
I listen I like I'm the 80s
80 až 90 byly nejlepší písně.. Víme to všichni..,Nikdo už nepřekoná tuto krásnou překážku.. Elton John je příkladem pro nás.. má krásné písně.. Děkuji za jednu z nich..❤❤❤

To hear George Michael's voice at the end of the song is everything.
he makes the song ,
No matter how many years pass, this song will stay in our hearts forever!
The song Nikita reminds us my wife's mother who passed away 8 years ago. My wife says the lady acting Nikita looked like her mum and she was called "Nikita" by her close friends whilst the song playing in the years. The song which is one of my favorite songs by Sir Elton John makes my wife sad when she listens because she reminds her mum but nevertheless we did not stop listening. Thanks for singing this song Mr. Elton John.
Wow beautiful song enjoy for your mom
Wondeful history sorry to know about your mother in law , passed away
Será que tem alguém ouvindo essa linda música em 2020?
No.sigue viva
Com certeza, música boa e de qualidade é eterna, atravessa gerações.
Música boa vai ser ouvida enquanto existirem ouvidos hahahahahah. E essa é muito boa!

Eu ouço ela sempre
My heart has the strength to fly away every time I hear this song. ❤
One of his best recordings. Saw him live several times . Here in RSA at Sun City.in the 80s.
George Michael's at the end is icing on the cake 🎂

@@Gfourty5 around 1985
@@Gfourty5 Yes... the wall came "down" officially at the 9th November 1989. At 13th June 1990 they started to remove it completely.

what a timeless ballad. knockout stuff.
Eric Cartman, the only thing that stinks is such disinformation. It was proven that no plagiarism happened and it was the issue only considering lyrics and not melody.
The "little guy" decided 30 years after the song was released that he wants some easy money. No plagiarism ever happened. www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/elton-john-convinces-judges-uniqueness-587655

Во времена "железного занавес", любящие сердца из разных сторон занавес, не имели никаких шансов быть вместе.
os anos 80 passou como um cometa, todos viram o seu brilho, sentiram a sua presença e força, tempos bons de um passado distante que vão estar guardado na memória de quem passou por esses anos dourados.
Three years have been passed since I've seen Nikita, my middle school crush. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of her, how much I adored her back then, perhaps I still do. Now matter how hard I try I can't help myself. I wish she were mine.
This song never old, I still love it so much, Nikita for always in my Heart, thanks Sir Elton John ❤❤🩹💓💗💖💝💟❣
