What do I think of this?
I didn't like this at first, but when you see the video you realise it's a proper little call to arms from the one Balkan nation you wouldn't probably expect it from. So deep in symbolism, Dan Brown may make a book out of it, "Clear Water" physically looks like a nationalisitc war anthem, it sounds like a nationalistic war anthem, but undoubtedly has nothing to do with nationistic fervour whatsoever. I just couldn't be bothered to find out. You can always rely of the unpredictability of Bosnia, and indeed it's right up there in the favourites category. In a weak year for the Balkan oligopoly, you can't rule this out, especially with a good draw. Just don't ask me to vote for it.

History of the Sarajevo pop-rock group Regina, whose members, as far back as 1990 "decided" to get seriously involved in music life, didn't have a proper vocalist at that time. After unsuccessful auditions, Davor Ebner appeared quite unexpectedly. At that time he was the vocalist in the Sarajevo group Konvoj (Convoy).
With a recognizable sound of the Sarajevo pop-rock school, precisely adjusted to various generations, teenagers as well as admirers of a "harder" sound, the songs from Regina's first album were very accessible. Songs Sleep! ,Do Not Ask Me and The Way She Was, marked the first album, released in 1990. Their second album, named Love Is Not For Us, released in 1991, crossed the borders of Bosnia & Herzegovina, achieving success all over former Yugoslavia. The war circumstances separated the band members and the band ceased their work.
The new millennium marked the beginning of separate careers for Covic, under the name Aco Reginal and for Ebner with the group Gruntibugli, which were overshadowed by the success of Regina. These independent careers ended in 2004 when, after meeting in Belgrade, they agreed to restore Regina in its former cast: Aleksandar Covic, Davor Ebner, Bojan Milicevic and Denis Cabric. And after ten month preparations Regina recorded their come-back album - I Can Do It All and once again captured the public in the Balkans. The success of this album was confirmed in a great concert tour all over Bosnia & Herzegovina. The highlight was their performance as a supporting act for the Rolling Stones in July 2007.

Bistra Voda

Pitao sam neke ljude
U mome kraju gdje mi duša stanuje
Jednu tajnu za mene, kažu, kriješ draga

Pitao sam da mi vrate
Ono vrijeme, davne sate, proljece
Da ljubav miriše, tako kažu

Rodi me u majsku zoru
Kupaj me u bistroj vodi
Cuvam jedan cvijet kad svi drugi odu
Cuvam te dok sam živ

Ukradi malo Sunca za nas
Nemaš sutra, nemaš danas
Lako je kad ti pjesma srce nade

Rodi me u majsku zoru
Kupaj me u bistroj vodi
Cuvam jedan cvijet kad svi drugi odu
Cuvam te dok sam živ

Rodi me u majsku zoru
Kupaj me u bistroj vodi
Cuvam jedan cvijet kad svi drugi odu
Cuvam te dok sam živ
Clear Water

I asked some people
In the neighbourhood, where my soul resides
A secret from me, they say, you are hiding, dear

I asked that they return to me
That time, the old hours, the spring
That love is in the air, they say

Give birth to me at dawn in May
Bathe me in the clear water
I guard one flower, when all others leave
I guard you as long as I'm alive

Steal a bit of sun for us
There's no tomorrow, there's no today
It all becomes easy as the song finds the heart

Give birth to me at dawn in May
Bathe me in the clear water
I guard one flower, when all others leave
I guard you as long as I'm alive

Give birth to me at dawn in May
Bathe me in the clear water
I guard one flower, when all others leave
I guard you as long as I'm alive
