'I'm waiting for an answer') is a song by the Soviet rock group Kino from the Black Album, written in the spring of 1990 and released after the death of frontman Viktor Tsoi.
The song was recorded at a port studio at a dacha in Plieņciems, Latvia, where Tsoi went to relax after a concert at Luzhniki Stadium.
[1][2] The recording for the future album was done in the summer of 1990 at the Yamaha MT-44 studio in the village of Plienciems near Jūrmala, in modern day Latvia.
In this song, as Shadzhanova notes, through the fact that movement is replaced by statics, the semantics of the concept of "dao" is realized and developed.
The fact that external stimuli for action does not work, and there are no internal ones (there is no point in moving forward and there is no way to go back), and, according to Shadzhanova, lies the first significant moment for interpreting the concept of "dao".
[5] The hero of the song, according to Shadzhanova, feels that he has reached a dead end or has finished his journey, having lost his inner incentive.
Shadzhanova suggests that it is precisely this change that is connected with the feeling of approaching death that haunted Tsoi ("life will pass").
