Eva Kostolányiová

Eva Kostolányiová, a very popular Slovak singer with a short career due to her early dead at 31, was rather obscure on our site, but our Certified Contributor Virile Vagabond was not happy about this (see https://secondhandsongs.com/topic/74678).

Now - 26 releases and 32 covers later - almost all works she covered in her days have now been entered, apart from a song called Si úžasný from 1972 credited to US songwriter Dennis Lambert.

I have no idea which song Eva is covering here. Can anyone try for me:

Sheesh, you work fast. Without checking, I'm sure that you have already added the two covers by Eva that I was able to get in my research, etc. queues. Anyway....

Checking my notes for works with a Dennis Lambert credited, I had only one song that you may not have recognized. Listening to your video yielded no help from me either. I was hoping it was an adaption of "White Lies, Blue Eyes", originally by Bullet.

That's a cover of Mr. Monday

Thanks, Michael, I had never heard of the song! Now Si úžasný has been added to the SHS database...............

That was The Original Caste's other big hit besides "One Tin Soldier". I actually have that album so that's likely where I first heard it.
