Maj 1986 (ft. Rade Šerbedžija)
Jutro · Other Songs - Jutro
za dogadjaj taj
nogom kroci sva u belom
mirise na maj
Stajala je s jaganjcima
pored sena kao zlato
pa se spusti na to seno
iz legende poznato
K'o u bajci mesecina
s oreolom divno sja
lezi, cuti, ruke sklapa
glas iz grla ne pusta
Gledam nemo sav u znoju
sta li se to dogadja
srcem vristim k'o u snu
princeza se poradja
Ref. 2x
Hvala za Maju
hvala ti za sve
vecno cu cuvati nju
i misliti na tebe
Tad zaplaka devojcica
i rosa je okupa
na grudi je privija
sa osmehom na usnama
Uspela je da izusti -
volim te i cuvaj je
klonu glavom zadnji put
sklopi oci i ode
Ref. 3x
Dobro jutro, draga, dobro dosla
nasloni glavu meko na moje grudi
nek' te ne brinu ovi vetrovi
sto gradove brisu
Ne boj mi se, mila, nisi sama
kosava je nezna sa devojkama
dodji, budi moja ceznja iza onog sjetog maja
budi moja, moja Maja
A dramatic story from May 1986
“Maj 1986” (“May 1986”) is a dramatic narrative song featuring actor and singer Rade Šerbedžija. Rather than a conventional love ballad, it tells a tragic story centered on childbirth, loss and the promise to care for a child. The date in the title gives the story a documentary feel, anchoring its emotional events to a specific moment. Šerbedžija's presence adds a spoken-theatrical gravity to the performance, making the track feel closer to a narrated scene than a standard duet.
The song appears in Jutro's catalogue alongside the group's pop-folk recordings. Its subject matter and narrative pacing stand apart from the lighter or more romantic material associated with the band, using an extended story to build its emotional impact. The collaboration brings together Jutro's musical setting and Šerbedžija's dramatic voice, allowing the song to move between popular music and theatrical storytelling.
A chart history is not widely available, and the track's significance is chiefly narrative. “Maj 1986” is a song about grief and responsibility, and its dramatic form asks listeners to follow a story rather than simply absorb a mood. The feature credit is important: Rade Šerbedžija is not incidental, but central to the track's performance identity. Its unusual subject and dated title make it one of the most distinctive entries in Jutro's catalogue.
