I am a songwriter, and an amateur guitarist, and this channel contains (mostly) my original songs, many of them inspired by songs and poetry from other languages, such as Russian, Ukrainian or French.

Lie to me
Lie to me, delude me,
Tell me it ain’t so
Lie to me, delude me,
I just can’t take your “No”
Take my hand and look me in the eyes
I don’t know if I am drunk or sober
All I want to hear is your lies
In this dreadful cold and wet October
Hold my hand so hard -- please don’t leave me
I know that our love is almost gone
But I hope you’d heed to my final plea
And help me one last time to move on
Don’t tell me what you really think of me
But tell me only what I want to hear
That I have strength to tackle world that’s mean
That you will be somewhere that is near
Please tell me I can do it on my own
Please tell me I have nobody to fear
Please tell me my worry’s overblown
Please tell me I can conquer new frontiers
Lie...
Tell me it ain’t so
Lie to me, delude me,
I just can’t take your “No”
Take my hand and look me in the eyes
I don’t know if I am drunk or sober
All I want to hear is your lies
In this dreadful cold and wet October
Hold my hand so hard -- please don’t leave me
I know that our love is almost gone
But I hope you’d heed to my final plea
And help me one last time to move on
Don’t tell me what you really think of me
But tell me only what I want to hear
That I have strength to tackle world that’s mean
That you will be somewhere that is near
Please tell me I can do it on my own
Please tell me I have nobody to fear
Please tell me my worry’s overblown
Please tell me I can conquer new frontiers

One Hundred Years of Solitude

You die, die for someone, again and again, In this world of eternal drizzle, You leave, you turn, you go away, But you slip, and your vigor fizzles. Then you wake up one day in Macondo, Collected and unperturbed, Cool like a caiman, or an anaconda, Outside! The rain stopped! It is simpler to take yourself out of a sum, Than to join this bewildering crew. The rain has been steadier than any cust...
Eyes of Christ

He thought he wanted to be a man of God, and dreamed of becoming a priest And in temptations of New York he had no interest in the least. Poor boy, grew up without a father, his mother always at work. He learned only way too early who brought him about - ain’t no stork. Parish school, like a prison - but something in it for him, Not much love but at least not the street, timid kid, well, you ge...
Redhead Molly
Просмотров 196 месяцев назад
Redhead Molly is thin and awkward, Eyes are greener, than the fields of the ancient Ire. She is always jumpy, as if slightly bothered, She could’ve been molded into any form, but inside, there is that fire… Redhead Molly was schooled among the portraits Of Roman popes, cardinals… Long skirts and the Catechizes: “What are you reading there, Molly? Yates? Hey, listen it’s not a pub… Put is away, ...

My honey is so sweet and gentle, Looks to kill - mucho caliente, Pretty face, and those buns! Delicious! But, you know, she’s a bit… capricious… Pretty dresses, high heels - stunning! Posture, bearing, demeanor - becoming! Diamond necklace and a watch… Swiss! But she is chaste as a catholic priest. I do love her with all my heart, But her abstinence makes it so hard! I am healthy, and strapping...
The Other Coast of Winter

On this day I want to howl like a wolf, And the clouds look just like bales of dark gray wool. When the streetlights swing like monkeys on their posts, I will see you walking on the other coast... Refrain: On the other coast of winter You are walking, dressed in black. On the other coast... But I would, I would love to have you back. On the other coast of winter Flurries swirl around your face....
Tomorrow

They will kill us tomorrow. Right before dawn, I wouldn’t tell you, no need to be scared. Sleep, my child, it’s all foregone… Quiet moments are now so rare… Life is swirling in vicious twists, Like the blizzard that’s outside, Whipping the bare branches of trees Against the window’s half-rusted bars Our stair to heaven is crafted from bones, Every baluster, steps and railing, Juden stars, our f...
Vysotsky in English: A Troubled Roman
Просмотров 348 месяцев назад
Translation by Vadim (Sentinel) Astrakhan, my edits. Once Patricians had a gathering, In old Rome, right by the Capitol. To enjoy a bit of blathering, With a proper bit of alcohol. “Non veritas in sobriety!”, Markus turned his goblet up at once: Drowned in nectar his anxiety, And got greatly “over-nectarized”. By the ancient temple Marcus sat, Bellowed out a profanity. “Noble brethren! From my ...
Christmas song

When decorations light up the streets. And the circle completes, When the Moon ascends And the night descends. When Orion fades, You hear the steps of Fates. And with Celestial Pen He makes marks In the Book of Our Hearts. Chorus: Night is pouring midnight darkness, Smoothly, as if honey on glass. In this hour, the Creator is Opening his heaven for us. He is with us every moment, And the steps ...

Outside it’s getting cold And the year’s growing old ‘Tis the season for some fun And when good deeds are getting done Everyone is calling: “With us Celebrate our good old Christmas!” But I am getting some cold feet ‘cause I’m the only Jewish kid Everyone is having fun As for gifts - I’m getting none Should this spirit pass me by? Let me ask my Rebbe-i … And the Rabbi says:… Chorus: All the Jew...

"UNEXPECTED" @ fundraiser for Ukraine concert
A nice song, bravo, Alex!
@@EkaterinaLavrentyeva thank you. Practicing for a concert next week
@@EkaterinaLavrentyeva here's the original ruclips.net/video/6VoMrvOzYCQ/видео.htmlsi=dP-dQB001ObrP24p
A nice literary journey!
@@EkaterinaLavrentyeva Thank you!
Gorgeous song-a cross between French poetry with Russian overtones in the tune-all in English. I love it. Moreover, it’s truth. Maybe you should throw in “Tempus fugit” to lend ancient authority.
@@mgmartineau1 Thank you!
Prior bit of alcohol!
Proper!
"Loser blues for those who blew the fuse" - this rhyme alone makes me jealous - Well done!

The Pipe Has Burst (Mariika Felberg) Once, in a dream, my hand was a dolphin’s fin Streaking, ripping silk of the sea to wailings of Freddie’s Queen Warm-hearted and mammal, faking the cold And then reality shook me, and wouldn’t release its hold What’s all this racket? I am lost... Just then, I hear my wife exclaim: get up, the pipe has burst! I woke up in a hurry, made a dash for the bath Watery flood from above... mmm... I can do the math I knocked up the neighbor: wake up, Borís! He came to the door already knowing what’s amiss Tell me what happened, Borya? But give me that hatchet first He said don’t worry about it: the damn pipe has burst... Utilities sent a plumber, to shut off the building’s main The plumber arrived after awhile, calling the task insane I tried my emergency welder. He wouldn’t pick up his phone And then he said he was busy. And then he was simply gone Hey, what is the hold-up? I’m as late as Alice’s Hare The welder texted me back: there’s a burst pipe in here A buddy rang up from the States: how is your world? All good, I said, thanks for asking, we sure ain’t bored And how’re you doing? .... Connection is crap I can’t make it work with this glitchy WhatsApp Hey, bad connection, I can’t hear you, the signal’s lost! Then, suddenly, very clearly: I think my pipe’s burst! All the media magnates, be they Turner or Hearst Report on nothing but news of various pipes that burst I dialed Putin in Kremlin, he picked up his own phone And told me he wouldn’t help me, I had to go it alone What’s wrong with this picture? Why must I care the most? The answer is very simple: my pipe has burst! It started out proper, but then the decay commenced Now we are rotting, malodorous and incensed Thoughts made of venom, brains melted to sludge Disgusting word-image, but we mustn’t judge It’s no big secret, why my peace of mind is lost: While I was dreaming of dolphins, the pipe has burst!
New interpretation of famous Smokie hit. Funny and smart!
Thank you!
This just fires me up! Super optimistic! And yes, I agree - Alex, You Rock.
Сколько силы, страсти и красоты в одном ролике! Браво! Настоящий шедевр! :)

Beautiful song. Well done Alex🌟👍
Thank you!
If it's terrible, it really is Trump's fault! They used to blame everything on Obama including cookies that are too big to dunk. ruclips.net/video/uhY9Zxv1-oo/видео.html
Such a beautiful version.. thank you
Thank you!

Thank you, Jason!
Удручающее исполнение
однозначно и честно. это одна из первых репетиций. хотя я эту песню до ума так и не довёл. этот линк вообще не должен быть публичным - просто получил пару неплохих комментариев и решил оставить.
AWESOME!
Класс!!!
Красавец! Попробую изучить...)))
Well done bud😉 im folowing

Необычный кавер. Своеобразное исполнение, отличающееся от оригинала, более чем тянет на Отлично. Красава!
Thank you!
Alex, You Rock.
we would love to have the lyrics!!!
done
Добавь хрипотцы в голос ))) И пой октавой ниже. Шоб омаж Высоцкому был аутентичным )))
Boris A. Borovoy I'd need a bit of professional equipment for that, and record in chunks. This is live, first try, ipad direct... And the song is a fleeting current affairs address, is it really worth is?
This particular song - not. But for better results I strongly suggest you: go to vocal teacher and try to lower your voice. Perception gotta be much better.
Angel 3 You tear up the threads - I've heard them snapping By accident you clipped them with your wing The eerie silence of your feathers slowly flapping My angel, stay with me on earth, I hope you will Don’t let the music stop, don’t let song Don’t let me stumble, fall into the pavement Don’t let a heart stop beating, keep it strong, My snow-white angel with feathers like raven Help me rise to the task and be proud, Help me carry the torch through the night, And don't drop me from sky to the ground From impossible heights of your flight AF - 2015-10-17 Inspired by Elena Isayeva
Three Windows The battles’ done, hard times are gone And quiet settles in And for excitement in my life The chances are so slim I live away, I live so far Seclusion’s bitter pill In little house under stars On top of grassy hill I see from window on the east A meadow in the bloom Where nature’s sprightly vibrant feast Will banish any gloom The birds of color - flying flames The sun is shining bright And happy children playing games In careless delight When I wake up to sunny sky Splash water on my face I come to window on the east And I remember games Games that I used to play as boy In youthful paradise Those memories will bring me joy And sparkles to my eyes On south side - a forest As tall as it vast So dark that even daylight’s forced To hide from its black wrath And as I walked in my exploits Through fearful forest paths Its mystic dwellers watch me close With hungry vicious eyes And now, as I remember back To battle days long gone I feel in forests’ shades of black Unbending pace of time I’m glad I no more need to wage Relentless daily strife And face those creatures’ fearful rage To keep the flow of life And from my window on the west I see an endless sea Where waves with foamy sparkling crests Are running strong and free As time may pass from age to age In distant lands beyond The Ocean wipes like ancient sage Our footsteps from the sand And when my friends are gone And leave me all alone And if the walls are crushing down And fear turns my heart to stone And when I am oppressed with thoughts Of imminence of death I come to corner of my home With window to the west AF 02/09/2014 (Inspired by: Makarevich / Time Machine - Three Windows)
