The rock ballad from late 1970s called Vyznanie (Confession) by Marika Gombitova belongs to the most expressive emotionally as well as vocally European tunes and it is something like Thurn Taxis obstacle on horse racing track. Just a few professional singers have covered the song so far. Not just for reason that the song is iconic and inprinted in minds of people like the song of Marika (Gombitova) who is also sort of the icon. She was badly injured in the car crash just briefly winning a version of Eurovision. She is confined to the wheelchair and starts singing again as a touring singer which is great. Her vocals are phenomenal and so the song is very challenging and difficult. Think about double trouble in the soaring chorus and emotions and high notes.
There is nowhere to hide but I have supported wheelchair swimming training for children from foundation Kontakt bB from Brno, Czech republic. A lot of people know I was born in Czechia and I live in the UK as British citizen, also Czech obviously and I was a profi swimmer and I am a keen water baby. Not many people know the funny story about Kontakt bB and once ice hockey charity help but I have stumbled upon Marika's old iconic song and I asked myself Why not ? I was my modelling agency anyway, so..I dusted my vocals, trained like a dragon because the second level up in the restrained legatto parts and demanding chorus were difficult to tackle like spinning ball with Magnus effect in the rugby, not in the football (soccer). I think I have managed it. In my own way.
It is sort of Marika's straight tone and behind the mask, it is laser sharp but it is just ..myself..You will hear it polished and uploaded as the video soon. Meanwhile, I have almost finished the another challenge from hat trick (after Memory, Confession) - the Italian soundtrack from old spagetti western called Once upon time. That's how you build the promo prior a single music release. My way, anyway, soon...
