Biography

Tomislav "Toma" Zdravkovic was a Serbian pop-folk singer-songwriter and recording artist. Zdravkovic was an outstanding figure on the Serbian folk scene; a true bohemian and a poet, he lived up to his sad songs. The songs, although having the form of Serbian folk music, had the spirit of chansons. He had a characteristic baritone vocal, not too powerful but warm, resembling that of Charles Aznavour. The violin underlined the melancholic atmosphere in most songs. Most of the lyrics were written by Zdravkovic, devoted to unfortunate love, and love suffering while drinking and singing in omnipresent kafanas. Some of Zdravkovic's most renowned songs are "Prokleta nedelja", "Dotak'o sam dno zivota", "Ostala je samo uspomena", "Pustite me da zivim svoj zivot", "Dva smo sveta razlicita" and testimonial Pesme moje.
