BuzzJack Music Forum _ Countdowns and End of Year Charts _ Top 40 YVA songs

Posted by: Good Old Days 5th September 2018, 10:09 AM




I like to represent a special tribute to my favourite act and all-time # 1 girl group.

My favourite 40 YVA tracks in one countdown.

Also we will have some special bonus parts with the side projects of all YVA ladies from the golden line-up (Natalija, Kristina, Goda).

Who are YVA ?

YVA is the most popular Lithuanian girl group, which known for Europeans as a participant of two Lithuanian pre-selections for Eurovision with "Barbie" (2005) and "I Dangu" (2009).

YVA is a sexy trio of main singer Natalija Bunke, her sister Kristina Ivanova and Goda Sabutyte. "YVA" (Ypatingai Viliojanti Atrakcija) is an abriveatura, on English it means Extremely Seductive Attraction.

Formed in 2003, YVA got their big breakthrough in 2005, when their song "Berniukams" ("For Boys") (and debut album of the same title) caused mass hysteria in Lithuania, becoming the biggest hit of the summer. YVA based their success on combination of infectious uptempo pop songs and self promotion. Natalija is probably the most recognizable face of current Lithuanian pop culture – she takes part in most of the main music events and never denies an interview.

Before the break-up in 2011 year YVA released 4 albums and a compilation of their greatest hits. In the end of 2016 year the ladies did a comeback on Lithuanian pop music scene with some new versions of their big hits. After 7 years of fans' waiting new YVA song "Kaukes" ("Masks") was released in October 2017.

All three ladies also are the participants of other Lithuanian girl groups. On the current moment of time they are Pop Ladies (for Natalija), 69 Danguje (for Goda) and fresh band Kristal (for Kristina).

P.S : If you are a big fan of pure pop from late 90s and early 00s you obviously must give a chance for YVA. Probably these beautiful ladies will stole your heart as they did with me.

Bonus # 1 :



You can recognise Natalija and Goda in this old video from 2003, but who is the third girl ?

# 40. Jura



Smooth Natalija's vocals... Very stylish and the most old fashioned song from all YVA discography.

Posted by: Good Old Days 11th September 2018, 06:36 AM


# 39. Vaziuojam Prie Juros



Summer hit from 2008 year.

Posted by: Good Old Days 13th September 2018, 06:27 AM

# 37. Man Patinka

# 38. Pupytes




"Pupytes" sounds like demo version, not the final release.

Possibly YVA ladies had the problems with music material for their debut album, but why we got this track on LP instead "Barbie" ? sad.gif

Nice piece of pop "Tu Paskambink Vakare" is the lowest song, which I really like.

Posted by: Good Old Days 24th September 2018, 12:44 PM

Bonus part # 2 : Goda Sabutyte



In 2008 year Goda Sabutyte was a part of pop rap duet Goda & Lukas.

"Krize" (their debut song was about global financial crisis)



"Drakes" (funny song about a conflict between two Lithuanian pop stars Mia and YVA's leader Natalija Zvonke-Bunke)


Posted by: Good Old Days 24th September 2018, 12:45 PM


Now Goda is not only YVA member, but also is a part of another popular Lithuanian group 69 Danguje.

22 songs were included in YVA's greatest hits compilation, from 22nd position I like to represent my selection of their best songs. wub.gif



YVA's greatest hits compilation tracklist here :

https://www.discogs.com/Yva-Geriausi%C5%B3-Dain%C5%B3-Albumas/release/4033457

Almost all group hits are available on one album. Maybe hardcore YVA fans will disagree with songs selection, but this compilation is very good start for newcomers.

Bonus part # 3 : Kristina Ivanova



My favourite lady and "Miss Grace" of Lithuanian beauty pageant in 2011 year. wub.gif

Posted by: Good Old Days 7th October 2018, 09:03 AM

When Natalija left YVA for motherhood, all other 3 ladies (Kristina, Gintare, Ieva) from YVA 3.0 line-up became a new group Šarka.



Magnit was my favourite Kristina's side project.
Both "Laiko Rate" and "Meile Kaip Kine" are pop masterpieces !!!





"Laiko Rate" gave me the first and last qualification in Worldvision song contest (on ESCUnited forum) from 17 (!!!) attempts.

Posted by: Good Old Days 7th October 2018, 09:05 AM

Kristal is fresh and the current Kristina's group.

Posted by: Good Old Days 10th October 2018, 06:27 AM


# 16. Nuotaika Gera



# 15. Pabuciuok



"Pabuciuok" is the lowest from 12 official YVA number ones in my weekly chart.

Posted by: Good Old Days 11th October 2018, 05:58 AM



# 13. Katyciu Dainele



# 14. Aguoneles



Both songs are very good, I even wanted to participate in Buzzjack Song Contest with "Katyciu Dainele".

Posted by: Good Old Days 11th October 2018, 06:20 AM


# 11. Dievaites



Very underrated, but perfect slow song.

# 12. Paparacai



Song lyrics of "Paparazzi" is the answer of YVA singer Natalija Bunke for tabloids and other critics of her music and lifestyle.

Posted by: Good Old Days 12th October 2018, 11:08 AM

Bonus # 4 : Natalija Bunke



Her solo songs :

Sirdis Ant Balto Sniego



With 3 million views on YouTube is the most well-known YVA related song.

Pazadai



A cover version of Studentes' hit. Her iconic performance from Lithuanian TV show "Dainuok Mano Daina".

Posted by: Good Old Days 12th October 2018, 11:08 AM

Nieko Asmenisko



Geliu Mergaite



Her last song, which was released in August 2018.

# 1 for 1 week in this chart : http://www.lietus.fm/top20/?topid=6561

Posted by: Good Old Days 15th October 2018, 06:59 AM

Bonus # 5 : Natalija in Pop Ladies

We Are The Winners



Their version of Lithuanian most successful Eurovision entry.

Natashka



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OapwF3qQoH0 (sadly full performance is not available on YouTube anymore, only 15 seconds piece)

It's parody cover version of YVA song with changed lyrics, now related to Natalija.

Pop Ladies even used Natalija's outfits from 4 different performances (Katyciu Dainele, I Dangu, Laukiu Kaledu, Berniukams)

Posted by: Good Old Days 15th October 2018, 07:01 AM

Suviliojo



Last single from 2018.

Tik Naktis



Posted by: Good Old Days 16th October 2018, 05:48 AM


# 10. Kaukes (Masks)



QUOTE
Kristina Ivanova supported the idea of the song. She said that this song is about women who have to change a lot of masks in their lives. "Us people are used to seeing some in the scene, but in reality we are very diverse. We are told that we are only able to get on the stage - we are mothers, friends, wives, women. This song perfectly reveals that sometimes it is very good to wear that mask and be naive blond, and sometimes it's necessary to put on a serious woman, "said Kristina.

Posted by: Good Old Days 16th October 2018, 05:59 AM


# 8. Velnias Manyje Gyvena (The Devil Lives In Me)



Based on lyrics "Velnias Manyje Gyvena" (The Devil Lives In Me) sounds like "Paparacai"'s sequel. Besides relations between celebrities and mass media in this song YVA beauties also talk about a dark side of the female nature.

# 9. Vasaros Mergaites (Summer Girls)



"Vasaros Mergaites" is my favourite song from YVA debut album "Berniukams".

Posted by: Good Old Days 17th October 2018, 05:58 AM


# 6. Panele Verta Milijono (Miss Worth A Million)



# 7. Laukiu Kaledu (I'm Waiting For Christmas)



"Laukiu Kaledu" is my all-time # 1 favourite Christmas song.

Posted by: Good Old Days 21st October 2018, 11:51 AM

# 5. Taip Taip Taip (Yes Yes Yes)



# 4. I Dangu (Into The Sky)



“I Dangu” is the most known YVA song for Europeans, because it was their second unsuccessful attempt in the national pre-selection for Eurovision Song Contest.
It’s not confirmed by any sources, but iconic NF performance looks like a copycat of “Flying The Flag (For You) from Eurovision - 2007.

Posted by: Good Old Days 22nd October 2018, 06:45 AM

# 3. Grozio Fabrikas (Beauty Factory)



My favourite song from "Katytes".

Posted by: Good Old Days 22nd October 2018, 06:49 AM

# 2. Barbie



When all-time # 1 girl group was born.

"Barbie" is not the best choice for representing YVA discography, but it's signature track, not only for group, but for me too. This funny pop track made me a big fan of these Lithuanian beauties. I discovered YVA through music contest on ESCForum.net somewhere in 2012-2013 year. "Barbie" was the first YVA song, which I heard and it was love at first sight. YVA tried to represent Lithuania on Eurovision 2005 with "Barbie", but wasn't successful in national pre-selection. Suprisingly "Barbie" is not available on any YVA albums, also it's their first and last song on English language.

Signing "Touch my neck and kiss my eye"...

# 1. Brunetes, Blondines



No competition for # 1, this blonde ladies anthem was the highlight in YVA career.

Posted by: Good Old Days 6th November 2018, 07:09 AM

New 2016 versions of Paukstelis and Brunetes Blondines :
