I was telling you a few months ago about one of the most famous and loved bands in Romania, Iris, and about the lead singer, Cristi Minculescu, the most emblematic rock icon in Romania, that needed a liver transplant. His wife was the donor.
Now he is OK, last night he came back on stage in a concert that a lot of fans waited without actually knowing if it will take place or not…Last night it happened.
So I can only say: Welcome back, Cristi and Iris! Welcome back, for good!
Here’s a song of last night, Lost dream it is called, the main idea of the song is that “we all leave like a lost dream”.
On the back screen, images with Mercury, Cobain, Michael Jackson, John Bonham, John Lennon and a few Romanian artists we all loved here very much, that left this world much too soon. You can watch people hailing when their images appear on screen.
PS: in 1996 when they released this song, I was there in the crowd at the official album release concert. What a great time I had!

Even though I did not understand the words, I understood the meaning of the song. Great post Ovidiu, I hope Christi has a million more performances.

Thank you, I think now that he’s back on stage to be for a very long time from now on

I hope so too. I can’t imagine what the stress level is for someone needing a transplant of any kind.
First not knowing if you will get one in time, and then if your body will reject it or not and then how long you will live.
The stress would do me in. I try not to worry but sometimes find myself worrying about things I have no control over anyway.

Indeed, and he had this health condition for all his life, I remember him in 96 with the same large belly. Now I guess he’s also more relaxed about his health. I personally don’t want to think about such things, and try to keep my body balanced, without too much of anything. I just think it’s a good way to go on the long run for my health.
