BOYE is the artistic name of catalonian actor, performer and singer David Menéndez, born in Barcelona in 1989.
An ambitious debut project that seeks to be the voice of its own generation, without forgetting that we can all be on a shitty position. BOYE is a project that explores interpretation, performing arts and music to discover how to join the industry when you are nobody.

Boye (a pun for Boje, trans. Colors) were a Serbian new wave and later alternative rock band from Serbia, Novi Sad. Until the late 1980s Boye were an all-female band, but later lineups also featured male members.
The band was formed in October 1981 by Biljana Babić (drums), Jasna Manjulov (keyboards, vocals), Ljiljana Radaković (bass) and Klaudija Gavrilović (guitar, vocals). The first live appearance the band had in December of the same year, presenting themselves as an energetic all-female new wave band. In February of the following year, along with other Novi Sad new wave bands, they performed at Novosadski novi talas (Novi Sad New Wave) concert held in the Vienna club Arena.

In 1983, the band performed at the international rock festival Frauen in der Rock Music in Vienna and Frauen Avantgarde festival in Linz. At the time, Klaudija Gavrilović left the band being replaced by Vesna Branković and Milica Žilnik "Maša" became the new lead vocalist. The following year, the band recorded their debut album in Zagreb, however, it was never released as the record label wanted them to become an electropop band.

In 1985, without the need for compromise the band made demo recordings, with the Disciplina Kičme frontman Dušan Kojić "Koja" as the producer. The recorded demo tracks provided them with an opportunity to release a single "Ja hoću te" ("I Want You"), with the song "Kralj dosade" ("King of Boredom") as the B-side, through PGP RTB.[1] The cover of the single featured the inscriptions "Prvi pravi ženski zvuk" ("The first true feminine sound")[written in Kojić's already familiar manner.

The single release was followed by the debut album, Dosta! Dosta! Dosta! (Enough! Enough! Enough!), released by the same label in 1988,featuring the prominent songs "Mama Kivi" ("Mother Kiwi"), "Gde se možemo sresti" ("Where Could We Meet"), and the title track. The album also featured the new bassist Darko Matić, the first male member in the group, and yet another vocalist Tanja Đajić. Under Kojić's influence, the band had maintained their original musical style and introduced rap vocal sections. The album cover for both the album and the single had been designed by Biljana Babić.

Boye Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Znas da ja gledam tvoje pokrete
Nocima ja opsedam ovaj grad
Svaku je noc prozor osvetljen
Izgledas srecan kada si sam

Znas da ja gledam tvoje pokrete
Nocima o susretu mastam
Ko je plen, ti ili ja

Danima ja pravim planove

U tvoj sam zivot usla ja
Kroz prozor od kupatila
Stala sam pred ogledalo
Hajde reci mi ostani

Samo ugasi taj TV
Zbunjen si jer skupa smesis se
Ides li tiho, ko si ti
Nocima ja opsedam ovaj grad

Znas da ja gledam tvoje pokrete
Nocima ja opsedam ovaj kraj
Znam tvoje geste napamet
Izgledas srecan kada si sam

U tvoj sam zivot usla ja
Kroz prozor od kupatila

Znao si da nekog ces privuci
Hajde reci mi ostani

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Boye's song Ši describe the singer's obsessive longing for someone. They describe how the singer watches this person's every move and constantly dreams about meeting them. The singer seems to have entered this person's life in a secret way, through their bathroom window, and now begs this person to stay with them. The repetition of words and phrases like "pokrete" (movements), "noci" (nights), and "opsedam" (obsess over) create a sense of desperation in the singer's desire for this person.

The second verse implies that the object of the singer's affection knows about their presence in their life, perhaps through the singer's constant staring at them. The verse also suggests that the person may be confused as to who the singer is, and whether they are a threat or not. The chorus repeats the same thoughts as the first, emphasizing the singer's fixation on this person and their actions.

Overall, the lyrics to Ši capture the feeling of being completely consumed by someone, without their knowledge. The lyrics convey a sense of loneliness, as the singer watches from afar and imagines what their life would be like if they were with the person they're obsessed with.
