Ha megfogom az ördögöt - A Hungarian folk tune

This post will be just about one song.
Ha megfogom az ördögöt (If I catch the devil) is an old traditional Hungarian/Gypsy folk tune and I wanna show you three modern adaptions by three bands I really love.

1.)
Besh O Drom very fast powerful tunes. From Hungary


2.)Amorf Ördögök -- Another Hungarian folk/gypsy band


3.)RotFront -- A Berlin-based project (Hungarian/Russian/German)

LOVEGUN - Hungarian Rock

Not to be confused with the Kiss album, whence the name was derived, LOVEGUN is one of my all time favourite bands. I actually first came in contact with them through this blog and I decided that they deserved their own post. Their website is http://www.lovegun.hu/. LOVEGUN features intense female lead vocals and guitar riffs.

LOVEGUN - Megint 1 még 1 nyár


LOVEGUN - Romeo


LOVEGUN - Esö mossa el

Ska Hecc - Hungarian Ska

Ska Hecc - Ugyanonnan ugyanoda
High quality ska rock music from Hungary. Their website is pretty elaborated you can browse an English version of it and get quite some media (video and audio)
For example a high quality version of the video above

As a sidenote, the posts of this month are probably the last ones for quite some time, as I find myself being drafted into the army for 9 months, beginning next month. I don't know how well I can keep up with writing within that period. But this blog however will stay, and eventually some stuff can be posted on the weekends, which will be the only time when I'll be home.

Hungarian Folk - Felix Lajko / Magdolna Ruzsa

This is an hungarian folk song. The zither is played by Felix Lajko, who is an Hungarian violinist and Magdolna Ruzsa accompanies him singing.

Még azt mondják hogy ez se szép az se szép
Olyan vagyok mint a csillagos ég,
de olyan vagyok mint a zengedelem
a két szememből ragyog a szerelem a sötétbe'

Édesanyám vettem egy kalapot
fújja a szél rajta a szalagot
ha nem fújja magam is de lobogtatom
ezt a szőkét ide csalogatom a sötétbe

Magdolna Ruzsa singing Goran Bregovic's Lane Moje partly in Hungarian partly in Serbian (she was born in Serbia to the Hungarian minority).
This clip is from 2006 Hungarian Idol.
Magdolna Ruzsa will represent Hungary this year in Helsinki at ESC.

I actually like this video more, but it's a bit more "controversial" than the first one and I didn't want to scare someone away :p
You can listen to quite some songs on their homepage.
