Rade Serbedzija & Kemal Monteno - Kud plovi ovaj brod - Split Festival 2010



Kud plovi ovaj brod
koji ljude odnosi?
I da li itko zna
što more sprema?
Kud vodi ovaj put
kojim smo krenuli?
Od svega samo znam:
povratka nema!
Na moru ljubavi
i na pučini sna
u plavu beskraju
uvijek ostat ću ja!

Kud plovi ovaj brod
što srce odnosi?
Taj put je tako dug,
a luka nema.
Na moru ljubavi...
Kud plovi ovaj brod
što srce odnosi,
taj put je tako dug,
a luka nema.

Šarenilom od izvedbi i izvođača okončana je sinoćnja prva večer jubilarnog, 50. „Splitskog festivala“ naziva „Poznati pjevaju“ tijekom koje su se na pozornici izmjenjivali pjevači, političari, sportaši, glumci i novinari izvodivši najpoznatije skladbe iz duge glazbene povijesti Prokurativa.
Premda je splitski gradonačelnik Željko Kerum u posljednji trenutak otkazao nastup s pjesmom Dina Dvornika „Ništa kontra Splita“ obraz Grada osvjetlao je njegov zamjenik Jure Šundov zapjevavši „Kome bi šumilo more moje sinje“ uz potporu Tea Brajčića.
Šundov je zaradio gromoglasan aplauz, baš kao i nogometaš Ivica Hlevnjak u duetu s Matkom Jelavićem, Kemal Monteno s Radom Šerbedžijom, Niko Bulić s Đanijem Stipaničevom, Band Radio Dalmacija, Ivica Čikeš...
Sa svojim se „Galebom“ izborio i političar Ante Prkačin zaradivši od publike pljesak za hrabrost, dok se Mladen Grdović u veselom, inače redovnom festivalskom izdanju, spustio u gledalište, a potom nakon nastupa davao nepovezane izjave gomili novinara.
Požalivši se sedmoj sili kako je pod tabletama zbog bolnog koljena i kako ga čeka operacija meniskusa (za to vrijeme ga je pridržavao jedan od djelatnika u organizaciji) Grdović se usput tužio i kako ga progone mediji, govorio kako je romantična duša, na provokativna pitanja o ljubavnom životu uzvraćao kako ima ljubavnicu...
Večer nije počela planiranim nastupom Tereze Kesovije i njezinom „Nima Splita do Splita“ jer je vozač iz organizacije naprosto zaboravio otići po pjevačicu u hotel. Tereza je pokudila organizaciju, ali ne i direktora Nenadu Ninčeviću opisavši ga kao velikog šarmera koji ima puno prečih obveza od vođenja brige o njezinom prijevozu.
Stoga je temperamentna miljenica splitske publike oraspoložila gledalište na rasplesanim Prokurativama kao posljednja u nizu umjesto splitskog gradonačelnika koji je trebao nastupiti uz vokalnu potporu Marka Pecotića, člana klape „Iskon“.
Želko ima upalu grla... Bila bi to lakrdija od nastupa s obzirom na stanje njegova grla. Nismo se htjeli osramotiti – kazao nam je Pecotić potvrdivši kako je preksinoć ipak odradio probu s gradonačelnikom, premda se obojica nisu pojavili na službenom pokusu s orkestrom na Prokurativama.
Željkova je proba na Prokurativama bila najavljena u 1 i 30 iza ponoći što nismo mogli čekati jer je gradonačelnik rano ujutro imao obveze, pa sam mu glazbu iste večeri pustio s mog prijenosnog računala. Stoput smo do sada otpjevali taj refren „Ništa kontra Splita“, ali nikad nije zvučao gore negoli preksinoć. Vjerojatno ima polipe – ukazao je Pecotić na potencijalnu gradonačelnikovu dijagnozu slikovito dodavši „Bože mi prosti, zvuči kao Nadan Vidošević“.
Otvorenje jubilarnog „Splita“ tako je ostalo bez Dvornikovog hita „Ništa kontra Splita“, jer je uz gradonačelnika odustao i Pecotić („isjekao sam prst, pa mi se inficirala rana“) što nije nimalo uzrujalo njegova direktora Nenu Ninčevića. Barem se tako trudio zvučati odgovarajući na upit je li mu žao što na Prokurativama neće zapjevati gradonačelnik.
Žao mi je što se tiče spektakla, a što se tiče glazbe, to se sigurno ne može okarakterizirati kao nenadoknadiv gubitak – komentirao je Ninčević ističući kako je upravo i slagao program večeri „Poznati pjevaju“ vodeći računa kako će pojedini izvođači koji nisu glazbenici, poput Keruma i Cice Kranjčara, odustati u posljednji trenutak.

Michael Palin's New Europe - Split, Croatia


Until the early 1990s, when the Berlin Wall came tumbling down, travelling behind the iron curtain was never easy. In undertaking his new journey through Eastern Europe, breathing in its rich history, filming its exquisite sights and talking to its diverse peoples, Michael fills what has been a void in his own experience and that of very many of his own generation. As in all his series, Palin's New Europe takes the form of a journey through countries which have rich and complex cultures. Few have survived intact, as the ebb and flow of warring armies has continually changed the map of Europe. Starting in the mountains of Slovenia he travels down through Croatia and the former Yugoslavia to Albania before turning northwards to embrace Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, The Ukraine, The Czech Republic, Slovakia, the former East Germany, Poland, the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad (as Konigsberg originally home to the Teutonic Knights), Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, opening up a new and undiscovered world to millions of viewers and readers.

UEFA CUP match: Buducnost vs Hajduk


HNK Hajduk Split's UEFA Cup first qualifying round trip to FK Budućnost Podgorica has brought back a mix of fond and painful memories at the Montenegrin club.

Defiant optimism
It is 16 years since the two sides met in a competitive game, when both were competing in the former Yugoslavia, and while Budućnost - who finished as runners-up in the inaugural Montenegrin season - will be without goalkeeper Mladen Božović and forward Nikola Vujović, both Montenegrin internationals who have decided to leave the club, there is still optimism in Podgorica.

'Only on paper'
"Yes, Hajduk are better then Budućnost, but only on paper," said the Montenegrin side's coach Saša Petrović. "They have to prove that on the pitch. We are ready for two big games. In the past, Hajduk also came to Podgorica as favourites but often left the field with their heads down. We will try to spring a surprise. There is no need for us to be afraid."

Old-fashioned rivalry
A large contingent of travelling Hajduk fans is expected for the first game, and 20-year-old Budućnost attacking midfielder Milan Djurišić is looking forward to a taste of old-fashioned Yugoslavian excitement. "I don't remember that period but I am glad we have a chance to turn back time for fans in Montenegro," he said. "I'm sure the stadium will be full and that we will play with our hearts."

Famous connection
The most famous connection between the two clubs is that a deal was arranged for Montenegrin footballing idol Predrag Mijatović - now sporting director at Real Madrid CF - to leave Budućnost for Hajduk in 1989, with a transfer fee being agreed, only for the move to collapse in the space of 24 hours when the player decided to join Belgrade giants FK Partizan.

Petrović thwarted
A less famous move that never was in 1990 saw current Budućnost coach Petrović lined up to replace his current Hajduk counterpart Ivan Pudar as goalkeeper at the Poljud Stadium. "It was a done deal but the Budućnost officials suddenly changed their minds and blocked the transfer," he remembered. "I remember the headline: 'Pudar leaves, Petrović arrives'."

Poljud trip
The coach's dream of a move to the Dalmatian coast will finally come true as he leads his side into the second leg of the tie on 2 August. "Now, at last I will go to the Poljud," said Petrović. With a little luck, he will be going there to defend a healthy first-leg lead.

GORAN IVANISEVIC dedicated Wimbledon title to DRAZEN PETROVIC


Goran Ivanisevic dedicated his Wimbledon title to a good friend, an NBA star killed in a car crash eight years ago. Drazen Petrovic, a Croatian compatriot, was a member of the New Jersey Nets when he died in the accident in Germany. "I went to his funeral just before Wimbledon and I said I was going to dedicate that Wimbledon to him," Ivanisevic said after beating Patrick Rafter in five sets. "Unfortunately I played pretty badly and I lost in the third round." Ivanisevic said his father brought him some newspapers before this tournament. In one of them was a poster of Petrovic, who was one of the best shooters in the NBA. "So I ripped it off and put it on the wall," he said. "I said, 'This must be destiny. This is it.' Everything was going smoothly and I won it. I want to dedicate this victory to him. "He was not my best friend, but he was my good friend," Ivanisevic added. "He was one of the greatest basketball player in Europe ever."

AMAZING GOAL

GOOD GORAN vs BAD GORAN


Maybe you remember the Three Gorans.
Goran I was the Good Goran, the generous, charismatic, deeply religious star we loved, the charitable, blue-sky guy who traveled with a priest and won 22 titles.
Goran II was the rebel, the Mad Goran, who was racked with demons and prone to racket-tossing tantrums and chronic, ill-timed self-destruction.
Finally, there was the Emergency, or 911, Goran, whose task was to step in and sort out all the psychic chaos; the Goran who famously intervened when the Croat was about to implode and blow his chance to finally win Wimbledon, by telling the two other Gorans to get a grip. “Okay, now you have to calm down,” insisted Emergency Goran. “This is your last chance. You have to cool it. You can’t afford to be crazy in the Wimbledon final.”
Of course, tennis has had its share of funnymen. Ilie Nastase, Jimmy Connors, Yannick Noah, Pancho Segura and Whitney Reed could all get stadiums rolling in waves of laughter. But, among our major players, Goran is the funniest.

Fanatic soccer supporters


Hajduk fans are called Torcida (since 1950) as they took their name after their idolized Brazilian fan groups, which are named torcidas, from the Portuguese 'torcer', to cheer on. Supporters popularly call players of Hajduk bili (plural form of white in local dialect of the Croatian language) and are the oldest organized supporters' group in Europe.
Outside of Croatia, Hajduk also has many supporters throughout the rest of the world. It is said that Hajduk has never played a single game anywhere in the world without at least a small group of Torcida in the stands. Countries with huge fan clubs membership include Chile, New Zealand, Australia and Canada - mostly countries with significant Croat immigration from Dalmatia.

Hajduk Split was founded in the famous, centuries old pub Flek in Prague (then also a part of Austro-Hungarian Empire) by a group of students from Split (Fabijan Kaliterna, Lucijan Stella, Ivan Šakić and Vjekoslav Ivanišević). They went to the pub right after the match between Sparta and Slavia and decided it was high time their own town founded it's professional club. They all knew how popular the sport was back home, and how well their friends back home played. The club was officially registered with the authorities on February 13, 1911 and is, thus, the oldest football club in Croatia. The name originates from the hajduk's, romanticized bandits that fought the Ottoman Turks.
Hajduk gathered the pro-Croat party of citizens of Split, Croat unionists or puntari. That's why the club specifically has the name "hrvatski nogometni klub" (Croatian football club) and has Croat coat-of-arms in its logo. The club itself was a protest against the Austro-Hungarian government's policy of not allowing the unification of Croatian provinces and keeping them separated (the government and the emperor didn't allow reunion of Dalmatia with the rest of Croatia).
Hajduk reached its first period of glory in late twenties, when it won two Yugoslav championships, breaking the domination of clubs from Belgrade and Zagreb. Particularly interesting is the club's war episode. After Italian occupation of Split, club ceased to compete in defiance, and declined the offer to join the Italian first division. In 1944, team and staff clandestinely joined Yugoslav partisans on the island Vis and continued to play as an official partisan army team. After the war episode, partisan leader and later president of Yugoslavia, Tito, (impressed by the club's proficency and it's unique Dalmatian spirit) invited Hajduk to move to Belgrade and become an official army team. But, players refused the lucrative offer and continued playing in their hometown. The club, however, continued to be Tito's favorite long after the war.
Hajduk had its best years in the 1970s. The so-called "zlatna generacija" (Golden Generation) won five consecutive cups and three championships in the 1972 to 1979 period. It was the second most succsessful club in Yugoslavia far outstripping the third, it's present day rival, Dinamo Zagreb.

The Hajduk kit is white shirt and blue shorts.

Hajduk won two Yugoslav (kingdom) championships, seven Yugoslav championships, eight Croatian championships, as well as nine Yugoslav Cup titles, four Croatian Cups and six super cups.
Abroad, the club has reached the quarterfinals of the Champions Cup (now UEFA Champions League) three times (last time 1995), and two European semifinals: of Cup of cup's winners 1973, and UEFA cup 1984.

Hajduk is famous for its good youth school. It is one of the most prolific producers of high quality footballers which often continue careers in famous European teams. Some of Hajduk's former players include: Alen Bokšić (ex Juventus, Middlesbrough), Robert Jarni (ex Juventus, Real Madrid), Slaven Bilić (ex Karlsruhe, Everton), Igor Štimac (ex West Ham),Milan Rapaić (Standard Liege), Igor Tudor (Juventus), Ivica Šurjak (ex Paris SG), Luka Peruzović (ex Anderlecht), Aljoša Asanović, Ivica Buljan (ex Hamburger SV) and Zlatko Vujović (ex Bordeaux).

When the Croatian national team won third place at the 1998 World Cup in France, amongst the first 11, there were 5 former Hajduk players.

Since 1979, Hajduk plays at the Poljud stadium. It was built by the Yugoslavian federal government for the 1979 Mediterranean games that were held in Split. Thanks to lavish federal funding the stadium is quite impressive, not so much in size (though it is large) as it is in architecture, having one of the most unique and beautiful designs in the world at the time of it's construction. Before that, Hajduk played it's games at the "Kod stare plinare" stadium ("By the old gas facility"), also known as "Stari plac" ("Old Square") or "Staro Hajdukovo" ("Old Hajduk's"). Before the transformation that area into the football pitch, the area was known as "Kraljeva njiva" ("King's Field") and it was part of a military camp.

Hajduk is by far the most popular sport team in the Croatian region of Dalmatia. Hajduk also has a strong fan base throughout the rest of Croatia, especially in littoral areas, as well as in Slavonia. Hajduk is also a very important part of the region's identity.
In the former Yugoslavia, Hajduk was the team that had supporters all over the country, among all national and religious communities (not only among the Croats); no other club achieved that. It is important to mention the big popularity of Hajduk among Albanians in socialist Yugoslavia, especially on Kosovo, where popularity of Hajduk can be compared with the one in Dalmatia.

THE BEAR HUG IN LIKA

The best scene is at the end of videoclip.

Oj medvjede gorska zivotinjo
Koj te ceslja koj li te umiva.
Mene ceslja gora bukovica
A umiva medena rosica oooooj
Oj, oj, oj, k njoj

Vuk ne vije sto je mesa gladan
Vec on vije da drustvo salije
Hojte vamo da ga zarozgamo
Odavno ga zarozgali nismo ooooooj
Oj, oj, oj, k njoj

Oj vuci viju, gavranovi grcu
Srne drce, sve planine jece
Hodi kume da ga zarozgamao
Odavno ga zarozgali nismo oooooj
Oj, oj, oj, k njoj

Oj zalajala kuja vise Slunja
U Primorju opazila vuka
Od stra`a kuja u Dunav skocila
Sve Primorje repom poskropila oooooj
Oj, oj, oj, k njoj

Old Folklore Song


Ojkavica is a type of singing from Dalmatian Zagora (Croatia) . It is characterized by a lone singer singing one line of lyrics and then others joining in for what can be best described as a wail. It is a very passionate form of singing, which is one of the reasons it has been limited in popularity to small towns.

Colonia feat Ivek - BAUSTELA SONG


ZA KONJAK JEDAN LJUTI / BAUŠTELA SONG
(prepjev skladbe "Za tvoje snene oči", tekst napisala Jelena Pirliju)
UVOD
Dobro došli na gradilište "Ferbos" tamo gdje skela ljubi nebo, tamo gdje svako malo čuješ jebooo...
...
Upoznali smo se na baušteli
Gledali smo se dok smo štemali
Bio je dovoljan šalung jedan
Da zauvijek tebi ja se predam
Jednog si dana otišao

Na rastanku si mi obećao
Vratit ću se kad se cement veže
Nemoj da ti se zbog toga srce steže
...
REFREN
Za konjak jedan ljuti ja dala bi sve
Da zaboravim dečka s bauštele
Da ne plačem dok sama šalujem
I za tobom žalujem

Za konjak ja ću dati plaću svu
Da ne svisnem kad vidim miješalicu
Da ne mislim što drugu šarmiraš
Dok zidove armiraš
...
Cement se vezao 28 dana
Čekala sam te kraj šalunga sama
Cement se vezao, ti došao nisi
Na drugu bauštelu otišao ti si

1000 Japanese singing - U Boj


This very popular tune was brought to Japan by Croatian mariners (then within Austrian-Hungarian army), immediately after the end of the WWI. Namely, while retreating from the Russian Far East front, a taifoon carried their ship to Japanese coast near Kobe. The Japanese liked very much "U BOJ" sung by Croatian mariners, and since then it became very popular throughout Japan.
