33 years ago did not Vysotsky. His creative life - is more than 800 songs and poems, 20 roles in theater and played about 30 roles in movies. Vladimir Semenovich every line he wrote, each chord, each of his "cry", "thunderclap" made it clear to people that he understands them. He sang about the country and the urgent problems, and distant dreams. He told his story so that I wanted to sing, and at the same time cry from an overabundance of feelings. The irony through tears, true through strong social "gags", the bitterness of despair, bright hope, the importance of love - every word, every song of his - this is the world that he gave to all the people. And it was the most real and honest peace.

A natural talent

Vysotsky is different from many children two qualities yard: infinite kindness, manifested in the fact that he gave away and gave what was; He kept in his pocket a piece of bread to give to malnourished mother, when she was returning home from work. A second feature of his hit all the friends, especially when they called Vysotsky on the phone. If the two-year toddler picked up the phone and started talking, it is often mistaken for an adult. So low, thick, not for children was his voice. One day in class the teacher asked second-graders Vysotsky loudly sing a song. He diligently fulfilled her request. But to finish singing the end could not see out as a lesson - the teacher put the child for the class door and put a deuce apparently believing that he abused her. The song remained Nedopetaya what Volodya bitterly told the house. But from that resentment I do not cry, do not shed tears, and when he was punished. Vysotsky - aspiring actor.

- What you can do?

- I'm writing songs.

- I've got to run, but for about 30 minutes, I'll listen to you.

As a result, these 30 minutes stretched by 2, 5 hour.
