When Marko Perković Thompson wrapped up his concert at Zagreb’s Hipodrom, he left no one indifferent. His message? “Croatia is in the right hands!” And no, this isn’t just another throwaway line at the end of a show. It’s a battle cry for the generations that built the country and those who now must protect it.
The concert lasted nearly three hours and ended with the anthem “Lijepa li si.” The crowd sang along in unison, and Thompson addressed the youth from the stage: “We old ones can now die in peace because we have handed Croatia over to the right hands.”
But this isn’t just a sentimental story. Thompson made it clear that many generations fought to create Croatia, but they succeeded. And now, seeing the strength of the young, he’s not afraid for the future. “You are better, tougher, stronger than us!”
This wasn’t a small event. Half a million tickets were sold, making it one of the biggest concerts in the history of independent Croatia. After Zagreb, Thompson announced a spectacular show at the Sinj Hipodrom, the day after the Sinj Alka, on August 4th.
All this sounds like Thompson is not just a musician but a voice for a generation that refuses to let their struggle be forgotten. But hey, if you think this is just another concert, think again. This is a political and cultural event that ignites passions and divides audiences.
So, what do you think? Is Croatia really in the right hands? Or is this just another song to close the show? Drop a comment, sing along, or just enjoy the unforgettable spectacle!
