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.

Alajos Németh: Ha volna még időm
Bikini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Álmomban a lángok között éltem.
Nem kérdezte senki, mi volt az álmom,
De a benzinkutak előtt hosszasan megállok.
R. Ha volna még időm, hazudhatnék neked.
Ami igazán bánt, azt sohasem értenéd meg.
Fekete zászló lengett egy jelszó miatt,
Elkísértek hosszú utamra a kutyák,
Halkan, mint a félelem álmom után.
R.
The lyrics of Bikini's song "Ha volna még időm" depict the artist reflecting on their past and the choices they made. In their childhood, they were infatuated with fire, living in a dream where they were amidst the flames. No one bothered to ask about their dreams, but they find solace in stopping by gas stations for long periods of time. The chorus expresses the desire to have more time to deceive and lie, as there are certain painful truths that the listener would never understand.
In the second verse, the artist recalls marching under heavy flags. A black flag waved, representing a slogan or cause. Dogs accompanied them on their long journey, quietly following like the fear that lingers after a dream. This verse portrays a sense of rebellion and a search for purpose in the artist's life.
Overall, the song explores themes of longing for understanding, the yearning for more time to manipulate the truth, and the artist's journey through different phases and experiences.

1. Gyermekkoromban szerelmes voltam a tűzbe,
Álmomban a lángok között éltem.
Nem kérdezte senki, mi volt az álmom,
De a benzinkutak előtt hosszasan megállok.
R. Ha volna még időm, hazudhatnék neked.
Ami igazán bánt, azt sohasem értenéd meg.
2. Meneteltem súlyos lobogók alatt,
Fekete zászló lengett egy jelszó miatt,
Elkísértek hosszú utamra a kutyák,
Halkan, mint a félelem álmom után.

gyönyörű, mégegyszer ezt mondom, bizony a sírás fojtogatja a torkom, ahogy nézem a képeket és hallgatom ezt a csodálatos zenét...valahogy azt mondja nekem, az ember mindig magányos valahol, még ha emberek veszik is körül, mert vannak olyan kimondhatatlan dolgok, amlyeket soha senki, csak ő, a benne lakó gyermek érthet meg...

Ez hihetetlen! Hogy lehet ilyen emberi, tökéletesen megfogalmazott szöveget írni? De nem csak ehhez, a legtöbb (ha nem az összes) Bikini-dal pontosan megkomponált dallam-és szövegvilágú:)
