Joker Out

Joker Out (made up of Bojan, Jure, Kris, Jan, and Nace) are one of Slovenia's most successful groups; having enjoyed both chart success and critical acclaim in recent years.

The wide range of the band members’ personalities - from the methodically astute to blissfully spontaneous - has led them to develop a unique sound, which they refer to as ‘shagadelic rock ‘n’ roll’.

Their energetic but seductive brand of softboi rock has taken the Balkans by storm, with their critically acclaimed debut studio album Umazane Misli (Indecent Notions) setting new streaming records domestically, and leading to sold out gigs across their home country.

Now, they’re heading to Liverpool with Carpe Diem, which like all their other tracks they’ve penned themselvesIn their own words, ‘All of us are huge Eurovision lovers.’

Lyrics of Carpe Diem

Mi bomo celo noč plesali,
Ljubili se in se igrali,
Kot da nas jutri več ne bo.

Vedno manj besed, tanek led pod nogami žge, mi pa bežimo s prepiha.
810.000 let moraš delat' le, da duša malo zadiha.

An ban, pet podgan.
Ti loviš, če preživiš.
Jaz ti bom vzel vse, ti ničesar ne dobiš.
Si tega res želiš?

Igra sovraštva je za vas, hvala lepa, ne računajte na nas.
Na nas.

Mi bomo celo noč plesali,
Ljubili se in se igrali,
Kot da nas jutri več ne bo.
Ne bomo šteli ur do zore,
Preskakovali bomo gore,
Da nas objame nebo.

Prvi dež odplaknil ves bo blišč, da ne bi kradel magije s plesišč,
Tema bo prižgala žar v očeh.

Igra sovraštva je za vas, hvala lepa, ne računajte na nas.
Še bolj na glas.

Mi bomo celo noč plesali,
Ljubili se in se igrali,
Kot da nas jutri več ne bo.
Ne bomo šteli ur do zore,
Preskakovali bomo gore,
Sprejeli, da smo večni samo in srečni samo, ko objema nas nebo.

Vso noč do jutra smo plesali.
Ljubili se in se igrali.
Živeli, kot da jutri nas mogoče več ne bo.
We'll be dancing all night long.
We’ll love each other and play.
As if there was no tomorrow.

Ever fewer words, thin ice burning under our feet,
But we're running away from the draught.
You must only work for 810,000 years to make your soul breathe a little.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
You win if you stay alive.
I'll take everything, you get nothing.
Do you really want it like this?

The game of hatred is your thing, thank you,
Don't count on us.
On us.

We'll be dancing all night long.
We’ll love each other and play.
As if there was no tomorrow.
We won't count the hours until the dawn arises.
We'll jump across the mountains.
To be embraced by the sky.

The first rain will wash away all the fake glitter,
So it stops stealing the magic from the dance floors,
The darkness will bring out the shine in our eyes

The game of hatred is your thing, thank you,
Don't count on us.
We'll be even louder.

We'll be dancing all night long.
We'll love each other and play.
As if there was no tomorrow.
We won't count the hours until the dawn arises.
We'll jump across the mountains.
We'll accept that we are eternal and happy
Only as long as the sky keeps embracing us.

We danced, loved, and played all night.
We lived as if there was no tomorrow
