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.

Amit tettem, én azt megtettem
Most viselem a bűnömet
Ki tudja mikor, kiket, meddig szerettem
Ugyanazzal jó és rossz hogyan lehettem
Még az út sem tudja, meddig visz, s hova
Tovább, csak tovább

Overall Meaning

In this song, Bikini explores the idea of moving forward and persevering despite the past. The first stanza highlights the importance of believing in oneself and being confident in one's own perceptions. The line "And I know well what I know" suggests that the singer is self-assured and trusts their own judgment. They also acknowledge that they only hear what they need to hear and block out what is unnecessary or negative. The second stanza is all about moving on and continuing to pursue their goals, no matter the cost. They have already achieved something, and now they are paying for it. However, they express no regrets and continue on their journey. The final line "Further, just further" is the ultimate representation of persevering despite the unknown and forging ahead no matter what obstacles lie ahead.

The chorus "Further, just further" represents the desire to keep moving and not to dwell on the past. The second line "Going where I'm going" represents the fact that the singer has a goal but isn't quite sure where they are headed. They trust their own instincts and prefer to forge their own path instead of relying on what others tell them to do. The third and fourth lines "Doing what I'm doing / Going where I'm going" are further confirmation that the singer is confident in their own abilities and has the courage to stick to their own path despite the challenges they may face.
