:: HELP :: TheGurgi's Eurasian Musical Tour CD

[QueenBee]

thegurgi, I'll ask my mother about some Polish songs..

[coolasfcuk]

I REALLY NEED ITALIAN, and GREEK, and POLISH would be Nice, same with finish. And i'd prefer bands that don't sing in English....

well, I dont see Bulgarian in that list, but if you want me to, I can send you couple of songs/singles that were huge in Bulgaria this summer. They are popish like you want them to be- one is sang in Bulgarian, and the other in Italian - yeah I know, go figure why the Bulgarian guy decided to do one single in Italian . But then again, he is dating one of my guy friends x-boyfriends, and rumours have it Rushi (the singer), dated Tiziano Ferro while he lived in Italy for a while
which leads me to the thought... I am not Italian, but I will suggest for Italian song - Tiziano Ferro's - Perdono - it is from last summer, but I doubt people in USA will know that I can also send you that one.

oh, and if you decide to use Bulgarian, this is how you write Bulgaria: България

[thegurgi]

coolasfcuk, YES YES! Bulgarian would be AWESOME!!!! and the italian one too

[coolasfcuk]

coolasfcuk, YES YES! Bulgarian would be AWESOME!!!! and the italian one too

okie then, will upload the files this weekend

Italia

[cirrus]

thegurgi, Hooverphonic is from Belgium, not Iceland. Iceland hm? There's Bjork, or Emiliana Torrini. Or Sigur Ros, but that's not pop.

What bout Korea? My friend likes the Korean singer Lee Jung Hyun. I think she's popular there.

Switzerland:
Lunik ( www.lunik.com )

Finland:
Darude
The Rasmus


And Poland:

I don't know too many Polish bands, but I've heard music by:
Budka Suflera (band - pop/folk)
Reni Jusis (female singer - pop/hiphop)
She has a really nice song "Miej Oczy Otwarte" which I could send to you or something.
And there's plenty of baaaadddd Polish rap

[thegurgi]

cirrus, i made mistake!
I skipped Sigur Ros! oops!

hehe, i'll have to fix that ASAP.

{i thought Hooverphonic where from the Netherlands? no? ok... still works out!}

PLEASE, don't post JUST the name of the band. I need song titles too...preferably their singles

I already like Lunik {i accidentally wrote Linux the first time, haha}

[QueenBee]

And there's plenty of baaaadddd Polish rap

Tell me about it.

[thegurgi]

no rap, in general... hehehe. although, i bet bad polish rap would be very funny... nah.

[QueenBee]

thegurgi, LOL trust me, STAY AWAY FROM POLISH RAP! Most Polish rap is so bad I feel like jumping out the window in complete horror.. *Blah*

[coolasfcuk]

thegurgi, since I see you arent always using songs from exactly the country - the Smash thing for Frence?! really weird for me - 'cause then you arent doing the country but the language - and I just rememberred your Lyrics thread.....
but anyway... then for greece or should I say greek you should use Antique - 'Dinata, Dinata' or 'Opa, Opa' those are Swedish, but with greek parents and they sing in greek - those are big hits from summer 2001.

Also, Greece in greek is ЕллЬдб - was that posted already? spy will have to correct me if I got that wrong

blaaaahhhh, you will need encoding for this to show up correctly... but if I am not misaken it is pronaunced 'Ellada'

[thegurgi]

coolasfcuk, i'm only using Belle for French, because it was WRITTEN By a FRENCH guy... in FRANCE . Just not performed by a french guys but intitially performed IN FRANCE, for a play.. in france. Plus, the Russian's have had strong ties with the French anyway, especially after Catherine the Great declared French the official langauge of the russian court. it still works, and it's the only version of the song i think would fit into the cd and it's still i FRENCH song, and i'm slightly insulted that you'd think that i'd ruin a tie like that.... i ALWAYS think these things through... i'm not stupid. Actually, i'm not that insulted at all, i just have a mild fever : wink : and was slightly bothered by the assumtion. Also that it's getting me nowhere.

So, i'd prefer songs FROM greece, even though they are practically greece, but i'm seriously doing it from the nation of the song. so even though the smash version is a cover and released in russia, i just feel i need to place in france.

It's weird, at school, no P2P programs work. All the downloads take forever, and therefor, i NEED people to send me the songs.

So, please contact me if you have some songs. Please, from Europe....

dont get inssulted so easily thegurgi
so the way you explained why you are using Smash for France - the tie between Russia and France in history kinda me...but so here is something that in the same way might convince you to use Antique as Greece. (remember, no one is saying you are stupid, dont be so insecure, please)

ok...here is a website : http://www.eurosongonline.com/downloads/ and a quote from it:

. Dinata dinata is a classic Greek song originally performed by Eleftheria Arvanitaki

...
so what do we have....'dinata, dinata' is an original Greek song...simply performed in it's modern version by Antique, who jut happen to live in Sweden, but are greek - more 'authntic' than Smash! - two Russian guys performing French song, living in Russia - do you see what I mean...

the historical ties are really weird for me, and I really do hope you dont take this the wrong way ...but you could say that the Vikings and the Greeks have been 'roaming' around europe for hundred-thousands years... if you really wanted to, I am sure you could find something to tie them - I cant think off the top of my head right at this moment (especially after just returning from the bar), but if you wanted me to, I am sure I could find out

If you stick to the songs origing - that makes sense.... then the answer is above.... 'Dinata, dinata' is an original greek song, and Antique are greek kids living in a foreign country

[taty994945]

thegurgi, have u checked out some eurovision songs? some are very good.

[DinoBora]

thegurgi, two songs representing Latvia are in your yahoo mailbox already.They are really great.
Hope you'll enjoy them too.

[thegurgi]

ok coolasfcuk. now i really want that Dinata song! hehe! oh, and i usually only get so easily insulted when i don't feel good [which is sadly too often]... and i usually mean it a little light heartedly anyway. I would now really like those Antique songs now... oh, and i don't get the whole viking/greek thing.

and Tatu994945, i have a ton of eurovision songs, i have all the entries from this year on my computer. The spain songs on my cd are the 2003 entry. but.... really, i liked only belgium [on my cd, i used their entry], i liked iceland [but i already have sigur ros], i liked russia and you know how that went, and spain. I liked Estonia a little, but not that much to put on a cd.

I'm making this cd for my family too, and i'm trying to make it according to their tastes. My family is very very very specific when it comes to music. so... that's why i can't use a lot of eurovision songs.

oblakovshtanah THANKS

[coolasfcuk]

thegurgi, he he, I knew I would convince you. Once again - if I sounded like a 'bitch' a little, sorry, I dont do it on purpose, that is just how I interact with people sometimes - a little provocatively of course, this is your CD and you can put on it whatever you want. I am working right now on converting those songs into mp3. I will update them here tonight
