After a year, I can finally sing 'Voljela me nije nijedna.'

in Music3 years ago

I first heard this song about a year ago in the VIP Pub in Visoko.
I must have listened to it 1000 times since then. I never get tired of it, since most of the words are still foreign to me, and it's a great song. The way that Branimir Štulić sings the words is so cool.
I have been trying to learn this song for a year. I still don't really know the actual meaning of the song, I only know direct translations of the lines. I am 100% sure that a direct translation of this song conveys none of the actual meaning.
After I learned the words, I had to be able to say them. "Zaljubio se obljubio je" is a massive tongue twister for me. To say "jer voljela me ali ko je ona ili ko sam ja" in the space of one line was also a real challenge.

Now that I have learned the song, my version is free to be born. I just need to play it 1000 more times:D



If I get good at this song, I will try busking with it.


When I'm working in the garage and this song comes on I usually end up singing into one of my wooden figures like a microphone. It's pretty sweet:)

Here is the original version by Azra.

Although I can't understand a word, your singing is full of strength and passion, now I know why you've heard this song about a thousand times.

Thank you for bringing new melodies to this home!

The song is kinda cryptic even for those who speak Croatian. 😊Poetry stuff. I would call it a short Reflective poem.

I asked my friend from Visoko for a translation, and he said that nobody knows what it means:D

🤣 Yes, that's basically it. 🤩

Ovo je zapravo jako dobro izvedeno... 🙂
Svaka ti čast.
Hoćeš li biti u Visokom za vikend? Vjerovatno si upućen u to da će biti mnogih dešavanja...

Ja želim da opet biti u Visoko!
I am in America without money to return to Bosnia in foreseeable future:(

Visoko je baš posebno mjesto. Neki ljudi ne vjeruju u to što tamo ima, čak se i ismijavaju. Imam poznanika koji žive oko 150km od Visokog i nikad ga nisu posjetili...

Nadam se da ćeš uskoro opet doći u Bosnu. I ovdje ima ljudi koji teško žive i koji su u finansijskim problemima, ali mislim da su jako gostoljubivi i da žele pomoći ako to mogu.

Najbolje ljudi živi u Visoko! Ja volim Bosniu i Visoko.
The mysteries of the ancient world are just beneath the surface there.
The archeology coming out of the Balkans will turn our model of the world on it's head.
