Magazin is a Croatian pop band from Split. Founded in 1979 under the name Dalmatinski magazin ("Dalmatian Magazine" in Croatian), the band quickly began to make a mark on local pop music festivals with its songs influenced by Dalmatian folk music. The band currently consists of lead vocalist Andrea Šušnjara, guitarist Željko Baričić and bass guitarist Nenad Vesanović Keko. Baričić is the only active founding member even though Vesanović featured on every album to date.
History
The band is a successor to Mladi Batali band that was founded in 1966. The original name Dalmatinski Magazin was shortened to Magazin in 1982. after singer Majda Šoletić left the band. Their gradual rise in popularity continued in the 1980s with a series of prestigious festival victories. But their peak of popularity was reached while Ljiljana Nikolovska was the band's lead singer. The leader and songwriter Tonči Huljić began to insert elements of folk music of other European countries in his songs. Magazin became one of the most popular and most influential music bands in Croatia. Their biggest hits are "Put putujem" (I'm travelling), "Ti si želja mog života" (You are the desire of my life), "Oko moje sanjivo" (My sleepy eye), "Sve bi seke ljubile mornare" (All girls would kiss the sailors), "Balkanska ulica" (Balkan street), "Istanbul", "Zna srce, zna" (The heart knows, knows), "Boli me" (It hurts), "Besane noći"(Sleepless nights) , and many more. Most of these songs are considered as classics in Croatia. The band won the first iteration of Dora in 1992. with the song "Aleluja" but Croatia was not eligible to compete in the Eurovision Song Contest. Later, they entered the 1995 Eurovision Song Contest with "Nostalgija".
