Đorđe Balašević (May 11th 1953) was born in Novi Sad, Vojvodina, ex-Yugoslavia (now Serbia).

He’s a famous Serbian songwriter and singer (both writes lyrics and composes scores), whose songs have a strong pacifistic note and often talk about love in his very unique way. Many would agree that he’s also one of the greatest ex-Yu poets of our time, given his amazing proficiency with words.

Next to emotional lyrics, Balašević often writes politically engaged songs, as well as very humoristic tunes, thus rounding up the intellectual touch he attaches to his work.

Guitarists Elvis Stanić, Jovan Demirović and Nikša Sviličić worked with Balašević on his late 80’s albums. Some of them are famous guitarists today with prestigious musicography.

Because of his protests against the war Serbia waged with Croatia during the breakup of the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Balasevic had to briefly move to Slovenia to protect his own and life of his family. He gained a title of UN “good will” ambassador. After the war, he returned to Novi Sad, where he lives and works today.

Many fans would agree that listening to Balašević isn’t just listening to music, it’s living a philosophy, especially for people from ex-Yugoslavia that share his views on the events that have occured in the late 80’s and 90’s.

    "Dragi moji, malo sam se zaželeo priznajem. Nismo se videli neko vreme deco, pa da se dogovorimo šta je bitno; spektakli, događaji. Znate šta se dešava? Bog je napravio planine, more, imao je nekih sitnih greškica; napravio je čoveka. Čovek je napravio granice. Pesme na sreću, žive po Božijim zakonima, a ne po ljudskim. Moje pesme su večeras došle kući." To je rekao, a bend je krenuo sa Panonskim Mornarom... Dalje pretpostavljajte šta je bilo. Osijek, 2010. :)
