MY MUSICAL COOPERATION WITH MIKES

Zbytecnej soud

Useless Judgement

This song meditates on human ambition for unlimited power. Recorded before the Velvet Revolution in 1989, with a strong influence of the anti-nuclear-war propaganda spirit of the communist regime. Reflection of songs Uz je po (It’s All Over by Olympic), Bozsky klid (Heavenly Peace by OK Band) and Kolej Yesterday (Yesterday Dormitory by Michal Prokop).

Uctovani

Getting Even

Having set this beautiful poetry by Jacques Prévert to music, I recorded this song with Mikes in times of our guesting in theater Suteren (later Baret S.). Memory to Petr Mohr.

Hlinik

Mr. Aluminium

Mr. Aluminium originated from Humpolec. For more see the next song.

Kratka noc

A Short Night

This eulogy on Monika Vorechovska’s long hair has much to do with Mikes’s trips to Humpolec. Mikes invited me once and I understood him.

Dlouha ulice

The Long Street

Mikes wrote this song as a glorification of Husova street in Jicin, where he used to live as a young boy. It's a street, where it all began.

Zpoved

Confession

In my teens I felt very lonely without love, so I wrote this desperate confession.

Zvlastni moc

Magic Might

The Summer has its magic might. For me and Dr.MOZSE this song means the same as Yesterday for The Beatles. A fate, unbeatable and quite simple song. It describes my July 1985 adventure with Lucie Bartova of Lenora, with whom I spent a wonderful Summer dream in Drevenice Camp. She’s never heard the song. I wrote nothing better since then, though I wrote resuming songs later (Strange Sickness, Strange Help and Strange Helplessness). The melody inspired the Chinaski’s song of Mlada garda.

Kour

Smoke

Response to Tomas Vorel‘s movie Kour (The Smoke).

Zvlastni nemoc

Strange Sickness

Fading love causes a strange sickness. The song tells a story about my love Ivona in my college time in Prague. Also, it reflects the fading bitterness of my previous love Ilona.

Epilogue

Originally, I prepared lyrics for this melody reflecting a scene from movie Jak basnikum chutna život (How the Poets Enjoy Life). The song remained without lyrics at last.

Reichenberg

This is a just a fun. Boris brought this song from Liberec (Reichenberg). Inspired by Vlada Misik's song Sladke je zit.
