1. Formed by Nagy Feró and Németh Alajos in 1982, Budapest, Hungary, Bikini is one of the most successful Hungarian rock band of the eighties. Nagy Feró's (also known as "the cockroach of the nation", as he called himself) former punk band, the legendary Beatrice split up in 1982, after having serious problems with communist authorities, when they formed this band.
The band music and lyrics was, like much of the communist era, filled with hidden meanings against the oppression. With Nagy Feró in the front of the Bikini they produced two studio albums, which were very progressive, post modern punk rock albums. Their debut was "Hová lett?" (1983), followed by the "XX. századi híradó" (1984) one year later. However as the eroding of Hungarian communist regime became more obvious and faster, Feró left the Bikini for reuniting the Beatrice.
In 1985 D. Nagy Lajos arrived to the band as a lead singer, when they progressed to a more accessible and melodic rock sound, and produced legendary and very successful hit songs like "Közeli helyeken" or "Ki visz haza?", which are still very popular and often played in Hungary. The band split up in 1992 but reunited in 1997.
Members are: D. Nagy Lajos, Németh Alajos, Lukács Peta, Mihalik Viktor, Makovics Dénes, Bördén Szabolcs.
Some former members are:
Nagy Feró (vocals 1982-85), Vedres Joe (guitar 1982-91, 1997-1998), Németh Gábor (drums, 1982-1985), Berecz Endre (drums, 1989-1991), Hirleman Bertalan (drums, 1985-1989, 1997-1998), Gallai Péter (keyboards 1985-2003), Daczi Zsolt (guitar 1991-2004), Csillag Endre (guitars 2004-2006), Kató Zoltán (saxophone, 1989-1998).

2. Bikini (electro-pop dance music duo) is Nigel Diamond and Olivier Olivier. Their music is like Salinger on MDMA. Diamond is originally from Miami and Olivier was classically trained at the Royal Conservatory.
Olivier Olivier is the son of the late Indian poet Fateh Bains and moved to Canada where he attended Glen-Lyon Norfolk School, a school chosen for its musical program affiliated with the Royal Conservatory of Music. It was here Olivier met Nigel Diamond, who was sent down after he was expelled from his previous school.
It wasn’t until after Glen-Lyon Norfolk that the two began to make music together. Olivier composes all the melodies in the fall of each year, drawing his inspiration from the poetry he writes during the summer. He records vocals, exports all his drafts without titles or form to Diamond. Diamond spends the following spring arranging Olivier's melodies, rhythm sequences and vocal treatments, adding his own lines. The result is a finished record. Nothing is sent back to Olivier. The songs are then sent from Diamond to be mastered and released.

Úgy hiányzik pár dolog
Bikini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
nem édes otthonnal vár
Mint egy asztal, ami üres
Nincs betömve még a szám
Mint egy ebéd, ami kihűlt,
vagy tüzet talán sohase lát
Úgy hiányzik pár dolog
Mint egy árny olyan vagyok
A Világból lassan én is elfogyok
Mint egy ördög, aki csábít
Új kalandokkal vár
Mint az Isten, aki büntet,
Ha nem hisznke benne már
Mint a jövőm, ami adott,
csak a jelenem marad örök talány
Úgy hiányzik pár dolog
Az állam a meséken felkopott
Mint egy árny olyan vagyok
A Világból lassan én is elfogyok
The lyrics of Bikini's song "Úgy hiányzik pár dolog" express a feeling of emptiness and longing for something that is missing, both in the physical and emotional sense. The opening lines describe a cold room that does not feel like home, and an empty table that has not been filled. This can be interpreted as a lack of warmth and comfort in one's life, perhaps due to the absence of loved ones.
The next verse compares the feeling to a cooled-down meal or a fire that has never been lit. These metaphors suggest that the singer's passion or enthusiasm for something has waned, leaving them feeling unsatisfied and unfulfilled.
The chorus repeats the refrain "Úgy hiányzik pár dolog" which translates to "Something is missing". The following lines compare the singer to a worn-out shadow and suggest that they are slowly disappearing from the world. This could be interpreted as a feeling of loneliness or a lack of purpose.
The third verse introduces the metaphor of an alluring devil or an angry God, implying that the missing element could be a sense of direction or faith. The final lines suggest that while the future is certain, the present remains a mystery.
Overall, the lyrics of "Úgy hiányzik pár dolog" convey a sense of longing and restlessness, as well as a search for something that is missing, be it love, passion, faith, or a sense of purpose.

Mint egy szoba, ami hideg:
Like a cold room that doesn't welcome me home.
nem édes otthonnal vár
It doesn't offer me a sweet homecoming.
Mint egy asztal, ami üres
Like an empty table.
Nincs betömve még a szám
There's still room for more, it's not yet full.
Mint egy ebéd, ami kihűlt,
Like a cold meal.
vagy tüzet talán sohase lát
Or maybe it's never tasted the warmth of fire.
Úgy hiányzik pár dolog
So many things are missing.
Az állam a meséken felkopott
The state of my mind has worn out from stories.
Mint egy árny olyan vagyok
I'm like a shadow.
A Világból lassan én is elfogyok
Slowly fading away from the world.
Mint egy ördög, aki csábít
Like a tempting devil.
Új kalandokkal vár
It awaits new adventures.
Mint az Isten, aki büntet,
Like a punishing God.
Ha nem hiszünk benne már
If we don't believe in it anymore.
Mint a jövőm, ami adott,
Like a given future.
csak a jelenem marad örök talány
Only my present remains an eternal mystery.

Ez az igényes zene! Nagyon sok Bikini dalnak méltatlanul kevés a megtekintése, hiába van fenn 1-2 vagy több éve.. :( Sok értékes dal nem lett ismert, és koncerteken se játsszák őket. Amennyi érzelmet fejez ki és ad át, amilyen hangulatot adnak e dalok, zeneileg is és szövegileg... szóban kifejezhetetlen. Mélyről jövő dolgok ezek, én 12-13 évesen bele szerettem a Bikinibe. A legtöbb mai tinédzser az espére, fluortomira, aefcére, meg hasonlókra csöpögtetik a nyáluk! Miért van ez? Egy korban élünk!
