As … Read Full Bio ↴Orthodox Celts is an irish folk rock band from Belgrade, Serbia.
As a popular band playing Irish music, Orthodox Celts are practically unique not only in Serbia but in the whole of Southeastern Europe and further afield. Despite their unusual music, since their founding in 1993 they have been one of the most popular bands in Serbia. Their music led to a popularisation of Irish and Celtic music and other aspects of Irish and Celtic culture in Serbia, especially Guinness beer. The band members are fans of the Celtic F.C., and some of the band's fans are too.
The band started their career with traditional Irish songs and, gradually, introduced more and more of their own material (lyrics mostly by Aleksandar, music mostly by Ana). All their songs are in the English language (or as they say, in the Irish language), but the group has composed some purely instrumental songs as well. In addition, the band has released several videos.
The Orthodox Celts have had several tours and numerous concerts inside and outside of the country (including in the Sava Center, one of the largest concert halls in Serbia). It is already a tradition of theirs to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a large concert in Belgrade.
In all of the band's interviews, they state that their greatest desire is to tour Ireland!

Orthodox Celts Lyrics

Can't believe I said we're through
Don't know what got into me girl
Guess I'm just a crazy fool
Saw you standing by his side, (ooh why?)
Giving him your sexy smile, (don't deny it)
Lost my temper
Lost my mind
CHORUS:
Ooh, baby I'm so blue without you
Forgive me girl
Cuz I don't wanna lose you
Ooh baby, baby
And I don't know what to do
I want you back I'm so in love with you
If I don't see you again
I'll regret it till the end
So I hope you'll understand
I just wanna be your only man
CHORUS
So I sit here and pray
Get on the phone girl
Call me today
CHORUS
The lyrics of Orthodox Celts's song "Blue" tell a story of regret, jealousy and heartbreak. The singer apologizes for his behavior and begs for forgiveness from his lover, whom he had previously broken up with. He confesses that he lost his temper and his mind when he saw her with another man, but now realizes the foolishness of his actions. He acknowledges that he is in love with her and that he does not want to lose her. The chorus repeats the same lines, as he emphasizes how much he misses her and wants her back in his life.
The song's lyrics are relatable, as most people have experienced heartbreak and regret at some point in their lives. The singer's vulnerability and honesty make the song touch the emotions of the audience. The song's melancholic melody and slow pace convey the singer's sadness and longing.

The song is very good, but they do seem to have a bit of trouble harmonizing here. Sounds like they had one too many nips of the rye IMO.
