Zagreb was the epicenter of the biggest musical spectacle in the history of independent Croatia! Marko Perković Thompson, the controversial king of Croatian music, gathered half a million people at the hippodrome, and the atmosphere was electric. Fans from all over Croatia and the world, including Russia, Germany, Canada, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Bulgaria, enjoyed the concert, while the city was overwhelmed with trash and chaos the day before, especially in Bogovićeva Street. Thompson opened the concert with the song “Ustani sjene” from his new album “Hodočasnik,” released after 12 years of silence, and closed with the legendary “Lijepa li si.” While some celebrated this musical event as historic, others reacted strongly, with famous singer Severina posting on Instagram that antifascism is the greatest concept in the world, clearly expressing her opinion about the concert. Meteorologists predicted pleasant weather for the day of the concert, further fueling expectations. This event was not just a concert but a true cultural and political bomb dividing the nation. What do you think? Is it a celebration or a provocation? Drop a comment and let the people’s voice be heard!
