Tajči - Hajde da ludujemo (Yugoslavia 1990)

[PopLife]

Basically the biggest ESC classic in the whole ex Yugoslavia. There’s no party without this banger being on. In a parallel universe, Riva finished 7th and this won instead. I think people are aware it’s an ESC song, but it transcended the contest long time ago. For a short while, Tajči was Yugoslavia’s last big idol before the war, when she soon after emigrated to US, but she’s been appearing in Croatia in the recent years, not least to celebrate Baby Lasagna’s second place last year. She also won the 1990 revote of #EurovisionAgain during lockdown.

Totally should be Yugoslavia/Croatia’s winner over Rock Me.

TRANSCENDENTAL!

The choreographer should’ve been rewarded the Balkan state of his choice!

Probably my favourite ever Eurovision song

Marija Magdalena a VERY CLOSE second obviously

Sheer unbridled JOY

This will always have a special place in my heart - the first cassette album I remember my mum having and she had the good sense to take it with her as we fled the Yugoslavian embassy

Truly INCREDIBLE
