Od ljubavi pijana
The narrator knows the language of recovery and still cannot make it stick. She claims she can live without the former lover, but the moment she sees him, her heart is back on the floor and her resolve disappears. The title’s image of being drunk on love is therefore not just romantic excess; it describes a recurring loss of control, where memory and attraction undo the decision to move on. There is an interesting double edge in the verses. The relationship seems to have brought out both the best and worst in the singer, and she recognizes that the lover gave the butterfly wings while also taking away her sky. The lyric avoids portraying love as purely redemptive or purely destructive. Instead, its emotional charge comes from the same person being associated with elevation and collapse. Beyond the lyric itself, the track has a traceable discographic setting. It appears on *Tijelo Kao Pjesma*, an album dated 2017-05-24, issued by Croatia Records. This placement is firmer context than a speculative claim about the chart history of the song. I could not verify a dependable chart position or an independent review of this specific recording, so its wider reception remains unquantified rather than something to infer from its lyrics. That contradiction is familiar territory for the dramatic regional pop ballad, whose direct chorus turns complicated feelings into a line listeners can sing back. Lidija Bačić’s performance persona often favors bold, immediate declarations, and this refrain gives that approach a vulnerable counterweight: the speaker’s confident claim is disproved by her own reaction. No independent review of this specific track surfaced. Its best insight is that knowing a relationship is over does not mean the body has stopped responding to it. |
