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.

Nehéz A Dolga A Katonának
Bikini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Alszik a tábor s én folyton csak rád gondolok.
Hidegen ragyognak a csillagok,
Messze vagy, hogy szeresselek, ó nem tudom.
2. Szavak tűnnek el a semmiben,
Felszívódnak az ürességben az emlékek.
Egy illúzió volt mindenem,
3. Nehezen múlnak a hónapok,
Levelet tőled egyre ritkábban kapok.
Itt nem olyan rossz, de volt már jobb,
Te messze vagy s én hiányod lassan megszokom.
R. Nehéz a dolga a katonának, nehéz a dolga...
The lyrics of Bikini's song "Nehéz A Dolga A Katonának" evoke a deep sense of longing and separation experienced by a soldier who is far away from their loved one. In the first verse, the singer reflects on lying alone in their bed, surrounded by a sleeping camp, yet all they can think about is their significant other. The imagery of the shining stars and the distance between them emphasizes the emotional distance and yearning they feel. Despite the cold beauty of the night sky, the absence of their loved one leaves them feeling unsure of how to cope with the longing.
Moving on to the second verse, the lyrics delve into the fleeting nature of words and memories disappearing into nothingness. The singer laments that everything they held dear now feels like an illusion, questioning why their loved one turned against them. The sense of loss and betrayal is palpable as they struggle to make sense of the emotional turmoil they are experiencing while being away from their partner.
The third verse continues to explore the passage of time and the difficulty of being apart for months on end. The diminishing frequency of letters from their loved one adds to the singer's sense of isolation, yet they try to find solace in the notion that their current situation is not unbearable. The singer acknowledges that it's not as bad as it could be, but the memories of better times with their partner linger, making their absence increasingly harder to bear.
The recurring refrain "Nehéz a dolga a katonának, nehéz a dolga..." underscores the central theme of the song - the challenging and burdensome nature of being a soldier and being separated from loved ones. The repetition of this line highlights the ongoing struggle and emotional weight carried by the singer as they navigate the complexities of love and duty in a situation of distance and longing. The song captures the melancholy and hardship of being apart while also reflecting on the resilience and strength required to endure such circumstances.
Line by Line Meaning
Egyedül fekszem az ágyamon,
I lie alone on my bed,
Alszik a tábor s én folyton csak rád gondolok.
The camp is asleep and I constantly think of you.
Hidegen ragyognak a csillagok,
The stars shine coldly.
Messze vagy, hogy szeresselek, ó nem tudom.
You are far away, I don't know how to love you.
Szavak tűnnek el a semmiben,
Words disappear into nothingness.
Felszívódnak az ürességben az emlékek.
Memories are absorbed in the emptiness.
Egy illúzió volt mindenem,
Everything was an illusion for me.
Mondd mért fordítottad ellenem?
Tell me why you turned against me?
Nehezen múlnak a hónapok,
The months pass slowly.
Levelet tőled egyre ritkábban kapok.
I receive letters from you less and less often.
Itt nem olyan rossz, de volt már jobb,
It's not so bad here, but it has been better.
Te messze vagy s én hiányod lassan megszokom.
You are far away and I slowly get used to your absence.
Nehéz a dolga a katonának, nehéz a dolga...
It's hard for the soldier, it's hard...
