After couple of solo performances as a singer/songwriter, Dukat Stray a.k.a. Stray Dogg decided to form a band in the winter of 2011 with Ana Janković and Jelena Damjanović who are the graduates of the Music Academy of Belgrade.
The band performed as a opening act to Chinawoman and Scout Niblett after only a couple of months ofpractice, with only a 4 song Demo available. The band needed another guitar player, and that's when Marko, former member of the Belgrade electropop band Inje, joined Stray Dogg to play solo guitar.
In 2011 they released their debut album "Almost" available for free download at their Bandcamp page. The album was recorded in a studio called "Baukova Soba".
In 2012, two new members (Uroš Milkić, Vladimir Milićević) joined the band during their concert tour. In October they released their second album titled "Fire's Never Wrong" following the July single release of the same title. Album brings 9 new songs, one of them, titled Time, features Devendra Banhart. This album is also available for free download at their Bandcamp page.

Disappear
Stray Dogg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I say don't hurt me but I don't even care
As long as you're here to make a better day
For me
Break me I need to cry again
Miss my feelings, I want them back
Make me, make me love again
I ask you to leave and pray for you to stay
I say don't hurt me but I don't even care
As long as you're here to make a better day
For me
The song Disappear by Stray Dogg is a melancholic reflection on the complexities of love and vulnerability. The first stanza talks about the paradox of begging someone to leave while at the same time praying for them to stay. The singer seems to be conflicted and unsure of what he really wants. He declares that he doesn't want to be hurt, but at the same time, he admits that he doesn't care as long as the person is present in his life. The singer seems to understand that the presence of this person provides a sense of hope, and that's all that really matters.
The second stanza is an admission that the singer is broken and in need of some emotional healing. He wants to cry and feel the full range of emotions, something that he hasn't been able to do. He also recognizes that his heart is cold and numb, and he needs someone to break through that and help him feel love again. He acknowledges that his heart is full of darkness, but he wants someone to paint over it and make him feel alive again.
Overall, the song is a powerful and emotional reflection on the complexities of human emotions and the power of love to both hurt and heal.

Two years now since I have discovered this song and it still moves me so much. I feel like I cannot live without it. The lyrics, the pure voice, the emotion, the piano phrase, the guitar slides at the beginning, the female voices, altogether, this is a song for the soul, the kind of one that kills you and cures you at the same time. Thank you so much Stray dogg for this incredible piece of art. It simply is perfect. Love from France.

Stvarno sjajno, odavno nisam čuo neku pesmu sa ovoliko emocija, gledao sam sad na rts tri boje zvuka i uzivo zvuči još mnogo bolje. Svaka čast!

Fenomenalna stvar i poprilično dobar akcenat. Rijetko ko sa ovih prostora od umjetnika zna uopšte riječi izgovarati fluentno i tačno. Šteta što se nije probila pjesma, zaslužuje makar par miliona pregleda.
