Remember This Performance? Croatian Singer Laughs at Clip from Early Career: 'I Argued with Stylists'

A wave of nostalgia swept through Croatia as singer and host Saša Lozar shared a throwback video of his very first television appearance. The clip, broadcast by HRT's "Dobro jutro, Hrvatska" (Good Morning, Croatia), features a young, blond-haired Lozar performing "If You Don't Know Me by Now" on the "Turbo Limach Show." The show itself was a cultural touchstone for a generation, serving as a launchpad for many young talents.

The archival footage perfectly captures the essence of the 1990s, from the stage design with its geometric shapes and bright colors to the fashion choices, including Lozar's striped shirt and patterned vest, and the hairstyles of the backup singers. This nostalgic glimpse resonated deeply with viewers, many of whom fondly remember the era as a simpler, more beautiful time.

That period, the Turbo Limach Show, was something that for us who loved singing and music was a show we eagerly awaited. The only bad memory is that I argued with the stylists.

Lozar himself looked back on the experience with humor, recalling the show as something he eagerly anticipated each week. His only playful complaint? "The only bad memory is that I argued with the stylists," he quipped about his youthful fashion choices. This sentiment aligns with a broader trend of 90s nostalgia currently popular in Croatia, celebrating the music, fashion, and perceived simpler way of life from that decade.

Interestingly, Lozar's current musical endeavors also touch upon a return to his roots. His recent single and music video, "Govore mi ljudi" (People Tell Me), is described as emotional and sincere. The video was filmed in Novi Dvori in Zaprešić, near where Lozar grew up, further emphasizing the theme of reconnecting with his beginnings.

Wonderful... Everything was so much simpler and more beautiful then.
