SESTRE IN TALLINN

Marlenna, Daphne, Emperatrizz and the Slovene delegation are already on the way to Tallinn.
In the week before the final concert of the Eurovision Song Contest 2002 (May 25 at 21.00) Sestre will have lots of promotional activities, performances and interviews.
And on May 25th we will all keep the fingers crossed. Good luck, Sestre!

SESTRE

This pop music group of transvestites has been active on the Slovene media scene for over two years. The members of the trio are: Daphne, a 27-year-old student of agronomy, also dancing for the Ljubljana Dance Theatre; Emperatrizz, a 22-year-old make-up artist and visagist, holder of the honourable title of the second runner-up at the European Miss Transvestite 1997 pageant; Marlena, a 22-year-old work therapy graduate from the medical college, also studying singing with Diego Barrios Ross. They started their career together as the "Štrumpant'l Sisters" (The Suspender Sisters) and appeared successfully at various festivals and in TV shows. In 2002 they entered Emma 2002, the national contest preceding the Eurovision Song Contest. Together with the members of the Pešut family they created the song entitled "Samo ljubezen" (Only Love), designing the concept of their appearance and changing the name of the group which now radiates warmth, love and - of course - a funny undertone. Their visual appearance at the national contest was co-designed by Uroš Belantič (Studio Oktober) and Meta Podkrajšek.
At the Eurovision Song Contest 2002, the trio is representing SLOVENIA, a land of music and good people, the only country with LOVE in its name.

SAMO LJUBEZEN
(Robert Pešut/ Barbara Pešut/ Aleksander Pešut)

Srce veliko kakor svet
Nasmeh in iskrica v očeh
In beseda, ki poznaš jo tudi ti.

V življenju mnogo je poti
Ne išči sreče kjer je ni
Le poslušaj kar srce ti govori.

Lahko ti podarim samo ljubezen
Eno in edino upanje
Poglej me v oči in lahko si brez skrbi
Vem, da isto čutiš tudi ti
(saj jo v srcu čutiš tudi ti)

Kar želiš si to ni greh
To je ljubezen v očeh

Poznaš me bolj kot se ti zdi
Čeprav zatiskaš si oči
Ko me gledaš, vidiš to kar si.


Dolgo časa si iskal
Kar si mislil, da je prav
A na koncu le eno boš izbral


Lahko ti podarim samo ljubezen
Eno in edino upanje
Poglej me v oči in lahko si brez skrbi
Vem, da isto čutiš tudi ti
(saj jo v srcu čutiš tudi ti)
