Anyone here a fan of this mans music or films?
I have only recently discovered him and I'm currently translating all his songs after a Lithuanian friend send me a CD with most of his albums. (I'm not using a translator but doing it the hard way in order to help me learn Russian).
I just wondered if anyone here also enjoyed his work.
Высoцкий is very popular man in Russia. :)
He is a great person.
He's still quite popular, especially among older people. The young generation mostly has other tastes in music, but even among them you hardly can find a person who don't know about Vysоtsky.
I liked him a lot when I was about 8 or 9 y/o, but once when I was at home alone I listened to my favourite song by Vysоtsky for about 4 hours again and again - 50 or 60 times in row (I liked it so much), but as a result I couldn't listen to his songs anymore, I felt almost nauseous (I think it was overdose). So I'm rather indifferent to him.
But there are a few topics on this forum devoted to V.
Try this one at first: http://masterrussian.net/mforum/viewtopic.php?t=5535
(34 pages of Vysоtsky lyrics in Russian and English and mp3 links).
Why "was"? По-русски я бы тоже не сказала "был".Quote:

So either way is fine.
I hope that helps.
Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Thanks. :)Quote:

I think forum engine replace "o" in Vys.tsky with "." on his own volition. I typed it correctly in my post and it came out as Vys.tsky too. :)Quote:

Патамушта, если вбить слово Высoтский - будет полно ссылок на соответствующую ветку. Это приведёт к распространению ссылок на mp3 Высoтского до тех пор, пока кому-нибудь это не понравится (вспоминаем законодательство об авторских правах) и мастерадмина не попросят удалить эти ссылки с форума. Вот и спрашивается - нафига?Quote:

You are welcome! It's not a big deal. Any time.Quote:

*Ez, still dancing around desk, will be throwing a party when I read a whole Russian sentence unaided...* :roll: :lol:
And very right you'll be! Celebrating even a small success is an important part of forming a positive attitude to learning and that helps a lot.Quote:
