The Poetry of Vladimir Vysotsky Hello, everybody, who love russian culture! I think, a person who had not lived long in USSR will not understand the irony of his poetry or at least all that he had in mind. Whatever it was, a many young Russian people who was born after the end of the Soviet Union, had no idea who is Vysotsky or in any case, if they watched a movies with him or about him, probably they don't know the poetry and winged phrases, for example: "Лукоморья больше нет...". But he had many international songs! Like these: 1. "Вершина" - http://lyrics.mp3s.ru/perl/lyric.pl?hykjkWFKrb3h6&47205 2. "Песня о друге" - http://www.kulichki.com/vv/pesni/esli-drug-okazalsya-vdrug.html This is a very strong, eternal poetry. I recommend you to translate them to English and enjoy! Everybody is clear?
