Odyssey | Anna Vorfolomeeva | TEDxSadovoeRing

  • 0:07 - 0:09
    (Guitar music)
  • 0:12 - 0:16
    While you are supposed
    To ensure your professional growth
  • 0:16 - 0:21
    You have simply chosen
    For the adventurous unknown
  • 0:21 - 0:26
    Living like a sea wolf
    Staying up over writing a novel
  • 0:26 - 0:31
    That journey of yours can be too long
    So please, forget me not
  • 0:31 - 0:36
    Years pass in a wink
  • 0:36 - 0:41
    Time is just leaking out of a safe haven
  • 0:41 - 0:45
    Drop scheduling your day
    Sail very far away
  • 0:45 - 0:49
    And ask me to come along
  • 0:51 - 0:55
    Change your life briskly
    A minute for each decision
  • 0:55 - 1:00
    Itinerary won't matter
    But only things to come
  • 1:01 - 1:05
    There's no need to worry
    The sea will trouble for you
  • 1:05 - 1:10
    The endings of all best stories
    Cannot be reached by land
  • 1:10 - 1:15
    Years pass in a wink
  • 1:15 - 1:20
    Time is just leaking out of a safe haven
  • 1:20 - 1:24
    Drop scheduling your day
    Sail very far away
  • 1:24 - 1:28
    And ask me to come along
  • 1:30 - 1:35
    Woah oh ooh, woah oh ooh
  • 1:35 - 1:38
    Ooh-ooh
  • 1:38 - 1:42
    (Ukulele music)
  • 2:00 - 2:04
    It's so hard to unroot
    For a man in his twenties
  • 2:04 - 2:09
    To rise up to the horizon
    To sail the seven seas
  • 2:10 - 2:14
    A life full of jollies
    Wants a boy in his thirties
  • 2:14 - 2:19
    From over the farthest borders
    Is sailing my Odyssey
  • 2:20 - 2:25
    Storm around the boat
  • 2:25 - 2:29
    Leave him untouched
    Clay only gets tougher with fire
  • 2:30 - 2:32
    If you only could
  • 2:32 - 2:37
    Still keep those boyish traits of yours
    Till a hundred years old
  • 2:39 - 2:42
    (Whistling)
  • 2:59 - 3:04
    Storm around the boat
  • 3:04 - 3:09
    Leave him untouched
    Clay only gets tougher with fire
  • 3:09 - 3:11
    If you only could
  • 3:11 - 3:16
    Still keep those boyish traits of yours
    Till a hundred years old
  • 3:19 - 3:24
    Woah oh ooh, woah oh ooh
  • 3:24 - 3:26
    Ooh-ooh
  • 3:27 - 3:29
    (Music ends)
  • 3:29 - 3:33
    (Applause)
Title:
Odyssey | Anna Vorfolomeeva | TEDxSadovoeRing
Description:

Anna's music is a lyrical rock-n-roll, summerly, expressive and a bit old-fashioned. Only in this case the retro is not a decor but an organic authentic color. This music is like a soundtrack to forgotten movies about quest for happiness or to the stories we grew up with. Anna Vorfolomeeva's performing style is indie pop and rock-n-roll. The amazingly warm and authentic voice of Anna has become her creative signature.
