Fatmir Alispahić as you didn't know him: Wrote and composed a Christmas song for a childhood love

Fatmir Alispahić, a Bosnian-Herzegovinian journalist and publicist, has released the song "Jesenka" on the internet channel YouTube, which he wrote and composed 27 years ago, but kept it a secret all this time, writes the BH news agency Patria.

- The song is a Christmas gift for a childhood love - says Fatmir Alispahić about the song "Jesenka", which, he said, traveled like a message in a bottle for 27 years.

In 1987, in the studio of Majid Porobić in Tuzla, composer Asim Horozić and lyricist Fatmir Alispahić recorded about ten songs, of which the song "Jutro ima tvoje ime" later appeared on the record of the ensemble "Iskre", and the song "Gledam tvoje oči" on the record of the group "Rapsodija".

Several of these songs, such as "Čuvaj se sine", were adapted and performed during the war in the production of the Music Studio Tuzla.

One of these songs, titled "Jesenka", was never publicly presented, and it is the only song that Fatmir Alispahić composed at the time, as he says - "with the only three guitar chords he knew".

- The song is a Christmas gift for a childhood love - said Alispahić.

The video for the song was made by Prof. Dr. Selma Rizvić, head of the Department of Electronic Graphic Design at BHRT, writes Patria.
