      @immgennaro I've seen that one as well. I'd like to see a full-fledged doc, with unseen footage and interviews from all the bandmates, especially from members of the original lineup from the first album.

    I met with Republica in ~ 99-2000 years on local TV by chance, there was showing a clip with them. It was not popular group in Kazakhstan, but I still remember theirs "From the rush our with love."
    Last year I found their all hits on Apple music and these are my favourite songs in my playlist.

    Cool video. I really love Republica and their music. The synths, the driving guitar, top notch song writing, and Saffrons incredible voice and hypnotic stage presence, they were and still are a great band. I wish they had more albums though, every song they've written is a banger, they don't put out throw away tunes.

    I love this song, but I don't understand the emphasis on how 'everything changed in 1997". Actually everything changed more monumentally a few years earlier with the 90s music explosion.

    • @atomcraft4067
      @atomcraft4067 9 місяців тому +2

      Pop music was on the wane sort of between mid 94 to 97. Grunge had pretty much been homogenised. Hip Hop/RnB was transitioning. Brit Pop was hanging in there. There dark horse to emerge was the electronic scene that had been going for years. House. Drum and Bass. Techno. Somehow electronica got pushed forward to mainstream and with rock still lingering it made sense to combine the two.
