| Branko Žuvela Dodo is the author of Croatian song “Sjećanje na Velu Luku” (Remembering Vela Luka), that almost every Croatian knows. Most of them think that it is a folk song. Vela Luka is a lovely Croatian town on the island of Korčula, where the author of the song was born. It is interesting that there exists a Czech version of the song (Krasne s tebou žit). This version was published on YouTube by late David Byler, 8th generation Croatian-American, collaborator of the CROWN, who prepared the accompanying video. |
