Нервни Слом



 Махнити људождер лута пустињом

Спремала се тешка временска непогода


Он се молио, дрхтао и плакао читаву ноћ

Сакривен у крошњи баобаба


Дан је донео заслепљујућу врелину

Са свих страна цурила је маст

Пустиња се злокобно хвалила белим костима

Шкорпијама, змијама и јатима лешинара


Малаксало је тело

Запалио се ум

И да ли је привиђење или спасење

Заиста чудна појава

Бела, боса девојка и камила

Као да је срце престало да куца

Одмах затим нешто као нервни слом.






English Translation

Nervous Breakdown
by Sebastian Sava Gor

A frenzied cannibal roams the desert,
A heavy storm was brewing.

He prayed, trembled, and wept all through the night,
Hidden in the branches of a baobab tree.

The day brought a blinding heat,
Fat dripping from every side.
The desert ominously boasted of white bones,
Scorpions, snakes, and flocks of vultures.

His body grew frail,
His mind ignited.
And whether a mirage or salvation,
A truly strange apparition...

A white, barefoot girl and a camel...
As if his heart ceased to beat,
And then, suddenly—something like a nervous breakdown.



Russian Translation

Нервный Срыв
Себастиан Сава Гор

Безумный каннибал бродит по пустыне,
Надвигалась сильная буря.

Он молился, дрожал и плакал всю ночь,
Спрятавшись в ветвях баобаба.

День принес ослепляющую жару,
Со всех сторон капал жир.
Пустыня зловеще хвасталась белыми костями,
Скорпионами, змеями и стаями стервятников.

Тело обессилело,
Разум вспыхнул.
И видение или спасение —
Поистине странное явление...

Белая, босая девушка и верблюд...
Как будто сердце перестало биться,
А затем вдруг—что-то вроде нервного срыва.




French Translation

Crise Nerveuse
par Sebastian Sava Gor

Un cannibale frénétique erre dans le désert,
Une violente tempête se préparait.

Il priait, tremblait et pleurait toute la nuit,
Caché dans les branches d’un baobab.

Le jour a apporté une chaleur aveuglante,
La graisse dégoulinait de toutes parts.
Le désert se vantait sinistrement de ses os blanchis,
De ses scorpions, serpents et nuées de vautours.

Le corps s’est affaibli,
L’esprit s’est embrasé.
Et, mirage ou salut,
Une apparition vraiment étrange...

Une fille blanche, pieds nus, et un chameau...
Comme si son cœur s’était arrêté,
Et soudain—quelque chose comme une crise nerveuse.

Best Albums Ever: Violent Femmes - Violet Femmes (1983) post-punk, alternative rock

Violent Femmes are an American folk punk band from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The band consists of founding members Gordon Gano (guitar, lead vocals) and Brian Ritchie (bass, backing vocals), joined by multi-instrumentalist Blaise Garza (joined 2004), and drummer John Sparrow (joined 2016). Former members of the band include drummers Victor DeLorenzo (1980–1993, 2002–2013), Guy Hoffman (1993–2002), and Brian Viglione (2013–2016).  Violent Femmes have released ten studio albums and 15 singles during the course of their career. The band found immediate success with the release of their self-titled debut album in early 1983. Featuring many of their well-known songs, including "Blister in the Sun", "Kiss Off", "Add It Up" and "Gone Daddy Gone", Violent Femmes became the band's biggest-selling album and was eventually certified platinum by the RIAA. Violent Femmes went on to become one of the most successful alternative rock bands of the 1980s, selling more than 9 million albums by 2005. After the release of their third album The Blind Leading the Naked (1986), the band's future was uncertain and they split up in 1987, when Gano and Ritchie went solo. However, they regrouped a year later, releasing the album 3 (1989). Their fifth album Why Do Birds Sing? (1991) contains the fan favorite and concert staple "American Music". In 1993, founding drummer Victor DeLorenzo left the band, and the band released the compilation album Add It Up (1981–1993), while their 1994 album New Times introduce new drummer Guy Hoffman to the lineup. A number of albums were released with this lineup throughout the 1990s, then DeLorenzo rejoined the band in 2002 for what was to be a farewell tour. The band stopped releasing new albums, though a number of compilation albums were released in the early 2000s, along with a few one-off songs. Some controversy over the licensing of the band's songs for commercial use led to an official break-up in 2009, though the band re-formed in 2013, and have since released two more studio albums of new material: We Can Do Anything (2016) and Hotel Last Resort (2019).






Violent Femmes is the band's most successful album to date. It went gold four years after its release and platinum four years after that despite never having appeared on the Billboard 200 album chart. After achieving platinum certification on February 1, 1991, the album finally charted for the first time on August 3, 1991, and peaked at #171. Since Nielsen Music began electronically tracking sales in 1991, the album has sold 1.8 million copies. Blending RIAA certifications and Nielsen Music sales data, the record's American sales were estimated at three million as of 2016. Slant Magazine listed the album at No. 21 on its list of "Best Albums of the 1980s"[9] and was ranked number 974 in All-Time Top 1000 Albums (third edition, 2000).[10] In 2014, the staff of PopMatters included the album on their list of "12 Essential Alternative Rock Albums from the 1980s."
