Review by Francisco Comes

Album Review: Važi Il Ne Važi by Amela Zuković & Džavid Band (1994) Let’s cut to the chase—this album is a hidden gem in the Folk, World, & Country genre. Released way back in ’94 under Sani Produktion in Germany, it’s one of those records that sneaks up on you when you least expect it. You know how some albums just sit there like unopened mail? Not this one. It grabs your attention faster than your grandma yelling “Pass the rakija!” Amela Zuković’s voice has this raw, soulful vibe that feels like she’s singing directly to your heart—or maybe your liver after one too many drinks. The Džavid Band backs her up with melodies so rich they could double as comfort food for your ears. And don’t get me started on the tracklist—it’s packed tighter than a suitcase at the end of vacation. Tracks like Tebi Na Dušu Rastanak Ide and Hej Nesrećo stood out to me like mismatched socks in a laundry basket: noticeable, memorable, and oddly charming. Take Tebi Na Dušu Rastanak Ide, for example. This song hits hard because, honestly, who hasn’t felt the sting of saying goodbye? The lyrics are simple yet gut-wrenching, delivered with an emotional punch that makes you want to hug yourself—or grab a tissue. Paired with the band’s melancholic instrumentation, it’s the kind of tune that sticks to your ribs long after it ends. Then there’s Hej Nesrećo. Oh man, where do I even start? If sadness had its own anthem, this would be it. But instead of wallowing, the music lifts you up somehow. It’s like crying while dancing—if such a thing exists. Maybe it doesn’t, but if anyone can pull off making you feel both devastated and hopeful at the same time, it’s Amela and her crew. Other standout tracks include Razbi Čašu Razbi Sve (a breakup anthem before breakup anthems were cool) and Žena Koja Te Voljela, which sounds like a love letter wrapped in regret. Every song tells a story, and these stories? They’re relatable AF—even if you’ve never lived through half the drama described here. What’s wild is that this album came out nearly three decades ago, yet it still feels fresh today. It’s like finding an old photograph tucked inside a book—you didn’t know you needed it until you stumbled upon it. So, what’s my final verdict? Važi Il Ne Važi isn’t just folk music; it’s life set to melody. Listening to it feels like catching up with an old friend over coffee—or maybe something stronger. Sure, it’s not perfect, but neither is life, right? And hey, isn’t that what makes it beautiful? Now go listen to it—but fair warning: once you do, you might find yourself daydreaming about Balkan weddings or random road trips across Europe. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya!
