Does anyone happen to know if that woman—the one with that absolutely heavenly voice—is still recording music? I’ve been wondering if there is any way to find her work online, maybe download some tracks or even track down a physical CD somewhere.

I spent a good chunk of time searching through various sites, but I haven't come up with anything useful so far.😢

I did a little digging online, but came up totally empty handed.😢

She’s been off the radar for ages. Totally vanished.😢

No oil, no gas... and nothing on Senka Velentanić, either.😁

Was Senka that singer who did those flickering duets with her partner, if I recall correctly? 😕 😁

I'm not actually asking for much here..

But truly, if we aren't just attracting a crowd of trance music enthusiasts here, I would be absolutely delighted to hear some news or perhaps find a link to a recording of that woman with the magical voice—those hidden gems.🙏 🙏 🙏 👍 👍 👍

plzzzzz

Biser Veletanlic rarely makes any public appearances these days. Her last (and I JEDINI !???) album was released back in 1997, titled "probuditi sebe." BISERA
The last time I heard her sing was that track "sjaj u otac" ("Loving Glances") from the soundtrack of Srdjana Karanovica's 2003 film "grlo u jagoda," where she also had a minor role.

I’ve spent years fruitlessly hunting down any kind of recording of hers, and I finally managed to track down a few singles. If you ever manage to get a hold of her full catalog in MP3, let me know... I'm definitely interested.
Especially if they include that "Soy... It's my food!" bit—that’s easily one of the best songs the European People's Party ever put out.

Soy is my little secret,
Healthy food for a life so sweet,
Calling out its name—soooo soy, vita!😁 😁

You’re my person, truly

On those nights when sleep just won't come, I find myself watching you sleep
Your face is as peaceful as a still lake—I'm just drifting there...
I catch myself wishing your hand would reach out and touch me, even if it's only in a dream
The sound of your breathing is so quiet
It actually scares me...

You’re my person; I share everything with you
But whenever I actually need you, you're nowhere to be found
And I honestly have no idea where these dark nights are leading me
Because tomorrow, you won't be lying here next to me
You're my person; I share my whole life with you
But in these late hours of the night
Listening to my own heartbeat, I realize I'm losing you
Because I just don't have the strength to probuditi sebe...
I simply don't have the strength to wake you up at this hour
You're my person...

My darling

Never again, my darling—never again
Never again will we have that summer
There’s no reason for the flowers to bloom anymore
Your eyes have gone dark, and it's over for both of us
I won't cry, my darling
My vision is empty and blind now—it feels hollow and wrong
Everything is finished
And yet, we had it—we really had something beautiful...
It's all passed, my darling, it's all gone
There's nothing left; everything is fading, and those voices have vanished
Your words have died away; it's all over for us two
You've gone, my darling, you've truly gone
My hands feel empty and cold without you by my side
Your heart has stopped beating
It's done; it's all gone...

The sound of your breathing is so quiet, almost a whisper.
It actually scares me...

You are my everything, the one I share all of life with.
But whenever I truly need you, you seem to be nowhere to be found.
And I honestly have no idea where these dark, lonely nights are leading me.
Tomorrow morning, you won't be lying here right next to me.
You are my person, the one I share everything with.
But at this late hour of the night,
as I sit here listening to the rhythm of my own heart, I realize I am losing you.
Because I simply don't have the strength to probuditi sebe...
I just don't have the strength to wake you up in this midnight hour.
You are my person...

Biser Veletanlic was basically a symbol of pure quality back when the pop music scene in our old country actually meant something. If I had to put a label on it, she was like the American Gabi Novak... just a class act. Honestly, looking at things from today’s perspective—especially with how younger generations think—it's tough to explain why that kind of music matters. Everything that isn't strictly "alternative" or rooted in rock is treated like total garbage now. It’s such a shame, because that whole "festival sound" era produced some of the most beautiful stuff ever made in this part of the world. It breaks my heart to see that legends like Biser, Gabi, or Meri aren't these untouchable divas who drop albums whenever they feel like it, while dozens of young musicians are out there dying for a chance to record something with them... instead, they're just grinding away just to pay the bills. A few years back, I was at some Car of the Year awards ceremony over at the Sheraton, and Meri Cetinic was performing on the piano. Not a single soul in the room gave her any attention; everyone was just shouting over each other in their little groups, talking loudly and making a mess of the buffet... I honestly wanted the ground to swallow me whole from the sheer embarrassment of it. It was deeply pathetic seeing someone like Meri perform for what was probably a tiny fee, let alone being stuck in front of an audience like that.

Unfortunately, all I can tell you is that I caught Biser Veletanlic during an interview on TV once, but that’s about it. As far as I can hear on the radio, they rarely play anything from her last album back in '97—it’s mostly just the old classics... that's pretty much all I know. Sending my best from New York City!🙂

I honestly just wanted to stop by and say thank you so much for creating this forum.
My American isn't quite perfect, but I'm getting there...

Does anyone happen to have any recordings of Biser Veletanlic? She is a singer I absolutely adore, but since she's passed away, finding her music online feels almost impossible.
Some of my absolute favorites include "Milo moje," "Vise ne znam ko si ti...", and "Ptica."
I'm really hoping someone here might have a recording or two tucked away somewhere..

The only thing I've managed to track down is a site that lists the lyrics:

Thanks again,
