Bucharest 1_jazz and manea

There are very different ways to travel in a city. One of these means could be through sounds, noises, music. The sound of manea and jazz makes me think at Bucharest.

'Cristina' is a song interpreted by the jazz singer Maria Raducanu. This is an exceptional jazz piece of music that originaly was a manea interpreted by Azur.
I have also found a version of the song that sounds more like an original manea. Please listen to the difference manea.
The lirics (in Romanian) are something like this:
'When I met you, Cristina, you had a painfull beautifull hair and an apple flower was on your hair.
When the night comes over Bucharest/ I look at the girls and see that you are not there.
When we got separated, Cristina, you had a painfull beautifull hair and an apple flower fell down from your hair.'
For those intereted in what a manea is, please go and search. Briefly, it is a kind of music with oriental touch that can be heard in most Balkan countries, bearing different names: from turbo-folk to others...
When I hear this song I am thinking at the neighborhood that starts at back of Lizeanu junction, after one passes the barrier of the blocks of flats from Obor market. It is a very green and poor area, with small houses and improvised colours and textures.  The sound of manea and jazz makes me think at Bucharest,  summer, sunset, jazz and manea and last but not least, the fragility of an apple flower.

I have also received this version of the song, if you fancy rock manea. I did! Robin and the Backstabbers.  Multumesc
