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.

Bikini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Senki sem szólít, senki nem mondja: gyere még.
R1. Engedj be, kérlek, olyan fáradt vagyok!
Engedj be, én rosszat nem akarok.
2. Egyetlen bűnöm, túl törékeny vagyok,
Fölöttem rosszul álltak mindig a csillagok.
R1.
R2. Ó, bárcsak értenéd: fogadj el engem!
Én csak szállni szeretnék. Fogadj el engem!
Kevés a vétkem, nincs mit bevallanom,
Üres és tiszta vagyok nagyon.
3. Megtérek végre, túl hosszú volt az út,
Érzem a szívem hozzád úgy visszahúz.
R1., R2.
The lyrics in the song "Engedj be kérlek" by Bikini express a longing for acceptance and understanding.
In the first verse, the singer describes walking down a road alone, feeling unnoticed and unacknowledged by others. There is a sense of isolation and a desire for someone to call out and invite them to join them.
The chorus repeats the plea "Engedj be, kérlek" which translates to "Let me in, please." The singer expresses their exhaustion and emphasizes that they don't have any bad intentions. They simply want to be allowed entry into someone's life or heart.
In the second verse, the singer reveals that their only flaw is being too fragile or sensitive. They feel like the stars have always been against them, causing misfortune or difficulties.
The second chorus continues the plea for acceptance, expressing the desire for someone to understand and accept them as they are. The singer states that they only want to fly or rise above their circumstances. They feel that their sins are few and have nothing to confess, and they see themselves as empty and pure.
In the third verse, the singer finally finds a sense of redemption or reconciliation after a long journey. They feel a strong pull towards someone, symbolized by their heart being drawn back.
The song concludes with the repetition of the first chorus and the second chorus, emphasizing the desire to be let in and accepted without judgment or prejudice. Overall, the lyrics convey a yearning for connection, understanding, and a chance to be embraced despite one's flaws.

Nagyon szép dal. Tavaly karácsony előtt néhány héttel szakított velem a párom akit nagyon szerettem. Az IC-n hazafelé bedobta ezt a dalt a Winamp. Akkor annyira megérintett, hogy nem tudtam visszatartani, elsírtam magam. A bükkösdi alagutaktól Dombóvárig végigbőgtem az utat, azt sem tudom hogy szálltam át. Nagyon szerettem őt és még nem múlt el nyomtalanul. Ezidáig nem volt lelki erőm arra, hogy ezt a dalt újra meghallgassam. Már nem sírom el magam de még mindig hiányzik...
