I Know is an unidentified electronic-cabaret song with multiple OP's that was originally sourced from a website called Неизвеcтные пеcни (Unknown songs), a Russian website dedicated to sharing lost music which is owned by a person named Sergey Pitersky.
Background[edit | edit source]
On March 22nd 2009, the song was first uploaded to the Russian website Нeизвecтные пеcни, which is dedicated to identifying lost songs, and the filename on the site was "I No (Full Version)".[1] Currently, the song is still hosted on the website in a folder called "Unknown western songs and instrumentals".[2][3]
There is evidence that the song was originally uploaded on September 25th, 2007 with the incorrect title "Oh Oh".[4] Sergey Pitersky, the owner of the site, claimed that the song was posted 15 years ago in 2022, indicating it was first posted in 2007, the same year that the song "Oh Oh" was posted.[5] However, this is unconfirmed because the OhOh.mp3 file was never archived.[6]
On June 10th, 2009, the song was first mentioned on the Russian music forum tonnel.ru.[7][8]
On November 26th, 2010, the song was first reuploaded by WatZatSong user frame13245, who linked to the full version from the Нeизвеcтные пеcни website.[9]
On January 4th, 2013, a user named vladimir_a uploaded a slightly higher-quality version of the song to tunnel.ru.[10][11] He claims to be the original owner of the cassette the song was on,[12] and believes it was released between 1972 and 1975.[13]
On July 14th, 2016, vladimir_a uploaded a higher-quality digitization of the song to the tunnel.ru thread.[14]
On November 2nd, 2022, the song was featured in a compilation of lost Russian music on YouTube called "Mix of lost masterpieces," which used a different digitization of the song by YouTube user Andrei OM68.[15]
Lyrics[edit | edit source]
| Presumed Lyrics |
| I know
The words we used to say In our window today Before, it was summer on a holiday Every word we used as (games?) It was just a (so called dream?) With flowers and bees We was happy and feel so free But now, our world is like a sea |
