Great Yugoslav Album Covers, Part 16

i-zena-pije.jpg
“A woman also drinks when she’s divorcing.”

I don’t know if this one can be topped. It all comes together so perfectly: crazy title, toothy expression, the implications of absolute misery. It’s solid gold.

(Thanks Mark!)

    As the great George Carlin once put it:

    “Solid Gold, to make you feel old”

    Damn, she’s scary! :D

    @sunshine: Not scary, dear… She’s the embodiement of every (Balkan) man’s dream: independent enough to drink on her own and yer gentle enough to feel the misery of this world (Weltschmertz, if you will). Combine that with Madonna-wannabe platinum blonde hairstyle and a catchy surname (Komar=Mosquito) and you’ve got an instant hit. At least in and around the city of Arandjelovac :)

    What a great way for a singer to attract fans! You go and have a real-life photo of yourself taken and mention the booze and lo! masses of dissatisfied fellow sufferers (”sisters”) will identify with you and buy you together with a bottle of rum… BAD

    I refuse to believe that this could ever surpass the greatness [even with the drinking] of Minja and Dragan, or even the bow tie hunk of a man missing Nena.

    While you’re making fun of Snjezana’s hair-do, y’all might want to check the deep lyrics on this album. Extremely deep! :D

    Is she actually snarling?

         by Poulette on November 20, 2006 at 6:18 pm

    Non, cherie - that’s not snarling… That’s a hangover from night of drinking-and-forgeting ;)

    Seeing this chick’s pic reminds me of exactly why I stay out of brothels in Belarus.

    That’s a stiff upper lip if I ever saw one.
    Not that I knew how to do it when under all this divorce stress…

    I’ve just posted that to a Eurovision fan site that I’m on :) Hope you don’t mind, but material of this quality deserves wide dissemination!

    Bože moj! you are trying really hard to cure everyone of their Jugonostalgija! This is a PLAN, AnYThing but a return to such album covers!
    No she’s not EVERY Balkan man’s dream, just the ones who are a bit ‘Chavie’ Yes an album cover that will live in infamy!
