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.

Rossz szokás
Bikini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Magamon hordom sorsom üzenetét.
A hazugságból jöttem, erről nem én tehettem
Tudom,sorsom egyszerű kereszt
Fogva tart és el nem ereszt
R. --: Felveszem azt a rossz szokást,
Hogy nem hagyom abba a káromkodást. :--
2. Tenyeremen hordtalak téged,
Mert ez így rendeltetett,
Tudom, ez lesz majd a végzetem,
És most üres tenyerem nézem,
Már csak emlék vagy nekem.
Tudom, sorsom egyszerű kereszt,
Fogva tart és el nem ereszt.

These lyrics are from the song "Rossz szokás" by Bikini. In the first paragraph, the lyrics describe a sense of fate and destiny. The singer feels like they are carrying the message of their own fate on their palm as long and terrifying signs. They acknowledge that they came from lies and they cannot be blamed for it. They understand that their fate is a simple cross that holds them captive and does not let them go.
The chorus reinforces the theme of the song, which is the singer's bad habit of swearing that they cannot seem to quit. They confess to embracing this bad habit and not being able to give up on it. It implies that swearing has become a part of their behavior that they cannot easily change.
In the second paragraph, the lyrics continue with the imagery of carrying someone else on their palm. The singer expresses that they carried this other person because it was destined to be so. They believe that this will be their own destiny, and they now find themselves looking at their empty palm, as if the person they carried has become just a memory. The mention of an empty palm may symbolize the emptiness or loss caused by this relationship.
The repetition of the chorus reinforces the idea that the singer cannot break free from their bad habit, even though it seems to be linked to their fate. The phrase "tudom, sorsom egyszerű kereszt, fogva tart és el nem ereszt" (I know, my fate is a simple cross, holding me captive and not letting me go) emphasizes the feeling of being trapped and unable to escape their destiny or current circumstances.
Overall, these lyrics convey a sense of fatalism and resignation to one's circumstances. The singer acknowledges their bad habit and the impact it has on their life, but also feels helpless to change it. The use of vivid imagery and repetition helps emphasize the emotions and themes present in the song.

Tenyeremben a végzet hosszú ijesztő jelekként
In the palm of my hand, fate is a long and terrifying sign
Magamon hordom sorsom üzenetét.
I carry the message of my destiny upon myself
A hazugságból jöttem, erről nem én tehettem
I came from deceit, I couldn't help it
Tudom, sorsom egyszerű kereszt
I know, my destiny is a simple cross
Fogva tart és el nem ereszt
Holding me captive and not letting go
Felveszem azt a rossz szokást
I adopt that bad habit
Hogy nem hagyom abba a káromkodást
That I don't stop cursing
Tenyeremen hordtalak téged
I carried you in the palm of my hand
Mert ez így rendeltetett
Because it was meant to be this way
Tudom, ez lesz majd a végzetem
I know, this will be my fate
És most üres tenyerem nézem
And now I gaze at my empty palm
Már csak emlék vagy nekem
You're only a memory to me now
