Lyrics in english:

SEE MY FRIEND, I REMEMBER EVERYTHING
AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT BETWEEN THIS SONG
AND A MILLION OTHERS
THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE

Life erases our tracks
It lets weird devils into that good night
Every day is bathed in cold sun
And memories are almost faded out

If you asked me I would only know one thing
Colours exist only in this rhyme
Night and day are the remains of some line
They will disappear when our songs fade

Play tonight that romance
Quietly to make me fall ill
The sadness when a nightingale dies
When the soul with the body divorces

Play tonight that romance
Slowly so that everyone hears
Let the guitars play again
'Cos I haven't heard them for a long time

THEY TELL ME TODAY
THAT I'M IN THE DUMPS
I'M TECHNOLOGY WASTE
LIKE THE MONKEY UP ON A BRANCH
BUT I WAS THE FIRST THE INTERNET
IN THE WORLD
SAILING ON SHIPS WITH MY MUSIC
I CONNECTED THE PLANET

I still remember all the dreams of my songs
All the fantasies and faces gone by
They are still like the shadows of my awakenings
Trapped and woven inside me a long time ago

"Deli" - Lyrics

Aranıyor sahibi ruhumun
Tam yerine mi düştüm
Direniyor faili tutkunun
Kızmış ve küçülmüş
Aranıyor sahibi ruhumun
Tam yerine mi düştüm
Direniyor
Direniyor
Direniyor..

Beni büyütün
Ağlatmayın
Sevginiz nerde
Övündüğünüz
Beni büyütün
Ağlatmayın
Sahte düşlerle
Oyalamayın

Bir yarım akıllı bir yarım deli
Dört yanım akıllı bir yanım deli
Herkes akıllı bir ben deli
Bir ben deli..

Beni büyütün
Ağlatmayın
Sevginiz nerde
Övündüğünüz
Beni büyütün
Aldatmayın

sahte düşlerle..

"Zauvijek volim te" - Lyrics

Ponoć nad gradom kuca
Ja ne znam gdje si ti
Srce od ljubavi puca
U praznoj postelji!

Tuga mi pjesme piše
Dok suze padaju
Jastuk na tebe miriše
A dugo, dugo nisi tu!

Ne daj mi da poludim
Tako je tužno sve
Ponovo moja budi
Zauvjek volim te!

Ne daj mi da poludim
Ne mogu više sam
Praštaju Bog i ljudi
Tebi ja pripadam!

Ponoć nad gradom kuca
Ja ne znam gdje si ti
Stojiš na ivici srca
A tako, tako trebaš mi!

Opet bi da te ljubim
Da korak pratim tvoj
Vrijeme ja uzalud gubim
Jer ti si život moj!

Ne daj mi da poludim
Tako je tužno sve
Ponovo moja budi
Zauvjek volim te!

Ne daj mi da poludim
Ne mogu više sam
Praštaju Bog i ljudi
Tebi ja pripadam!

Ne daj mu da poludi
Tako je tužno sve
Ponovo njegova budi
Zauvjek volim te!

Slovenia's entry to the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest



Rebeka Dremelj, a singer and Miss Slovenia 2001, is a true Slovene phenomenon. She is the only person who will have been representing Slovenia in two different fields. It was on the Miss World Talent Show in 2001 where she landed the outstanding second place and thus signed a contract with Sony Records London. The second time, she will be representing Slovenia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008. She had over 150 performances in the last year and is used performing; the Slovene public is therefore not in doubt about her charisma on the biggest European stage. She is considered a dynamic and energetic singer, who owns her own underwear label called Rebeka's Dream.

Vrag naj vzame - Lyrics

Sama na tleh, zadnja solza zate v očeh,
brišem sledi ki jih pustil je poraz,
ti brez besed, v trenutku si zrušil moj svet,
zdaj zbiram vse sence ljubezni da vržem ti jih v obraz.

Vrag naj vzame vse kar je med nama
tvoje slike mečem zdaj na tla
vrag naj vzame zdaj naprej grem sama
trgam vse spomine da se čimprej konča.

Ne dovolim da še kdaj me pogledaš v oči
zdaj več v meni ničesar zate ni
tujec si mi, ki na ulici ga ne spoznam
ko vidim te grem mimo tebe, glavo obrnem v drugo stran.

Vrag naj vzame vse kar je med nama
tvoje slike mečem zdaj na tla,
vrag naj vzame zdaj naprej grem sama,
trgam vse spomine da se čimprej konča.

Vrag naj vzame vse kar je med nama,
zate solze vem da so zaman,
zdaj med nama je samo še drama,
ki ne bo vrnila ukradenih mi sanj.

Zlomil si me priznam,
a grem naprej,
sama v vsak nov dan,
močnejša sem kot prej!

Pokusaj (Try) Lyrics

Ne silazi sa čardaka rek'o mi je pjevač Laka
Ne klepeći nanulama nemoj da se praviš dama
Ne silazi sa čardaka rek'o mi je lično Laka
Ne silazi sa čardaka dok ti ljubav nije jaka

Na moju omiljenu foru
Prevarim faunu i floru
Da život nije postao u moru
Nego od ljubavi

Kolike protraćismo dane
Ležeći jedući banane
Pa spadosmo na niske grane
Bez ljubavi

Pokušaću da te poljubim a ti se pravi luda
Pokušaću da te poljubim a ti se pravi luda
Pokušaću da te probudim a ti se pravi budna

Ne silazi sa čardaka rek'o mi je pjevač Laka
Ne klepeći nanulama nemoj da se praviš dama
Ne silazi sa čardaka rek'o mi je lično Laka
Ne silazi sa čardaka dok ti ljubav nije jaka

Pokušaću da te poljubim a ti se pravi luda
Pokušaću da te poljubim a ti se pravi luda
Pokušaću da te probudim a ti se pravi budna

KALOMOIRA - MY SECRET COMBINATION

Can you see it?
Can you see it?
You have to discover me
What goes wrong when I am crying
Or what I want when I’m smiling

Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
That I’m not a little girl
You’re misunderstanding my way
And all the roles that I like to play

My secret combination
It’s a mystery for you
Use your imagination
I’m not easy but I’m true
My secret combination
Boy you have to try it hard
To win a destination in the centre of my heart!

An open book,
An open book
Well, I’m sorry, I am not
Sometimes I’m acting like a lady
Sometimes woman, sometimes baby
