Kati Wolf was born in Szentendre, Hungary 24.09.1974.
Her father is Péter Wolf, a a well known, Erkel Award Winner composer, who wrote music for Hungarian singers like Kati Kovács. Her mother stayed home with her and her two brothers, but she find time for leading a choir in Szentendre as well (said Kati in one of her recent interviews).
At the age of 7 she sang the title single of the internationally recognized Hungarian animated movie 'Vuk', or best known as "The Little Fox". She said on the shooting of 'What about my dreams?' that that's her first music video, altaugh at the age of 7 she sang the 'Vuk'-song and they made a video for it. She added it wasn't a real shoot, they just set her on a chair and she sang the song. And that's all it was. Watch her first 'music video' below:
So, KIYOFILM made a Karaoke video for the Hungarian version of Kati's song. Check out their youtube channel here!
If you're intrested in practicing for some sing-along for the semi final then check it out below:
(I know it's not the version which we'll see in May, but here are the English lyrics):
I always stood behind you always close
stood by your side no matter what the cost
and I always was there for you when you called
should I live all my life for only your cause
What about my life
What about my dreams
What about how I feel
What about my needs
I cant hold back, I cant go back, I must be free
What about how I feel
What about my life
I cant / hold back / no more
Tíz lépés, száz lépés távolság kell
Nem számít merre, csak el tőled el
Mit mondhatnál, mit mondhatnék, elkoptunk rég
Szemeinkből nézd, hova tűnt a fény..
What about my life
What about my dreams
What about how I feel
What about my needs
I cant hold back, I cant go back, I must be free
What about how I feel
What about my life
I / cant hold back / (gonna live my dreams)
I / wont go back / (oh,my dreams)
I need to be / (gonna live my life)
All i can be
I / cant hold back / (I can't go back)
I / wont go back / (I must be free)
I need to be /
All I can be

Hy you all,
Did you notice that there's some really nice shots in Kati's video about Budapest, Hungary's capital?
Well, if you're not familiar with the city I can give you a little digital tour.
First, we can see Kati and her love interest in some parking lot-y place.
Well, it's definetely not a parking lot. It's one of the brand new
stations for the new underground. (Metró4)
Here are some pics about it in real life. Here's a link to google maps.
Then we see her driving over Szabadság Bridge (Szabadság=Freedom):
There are some nice shots about the Parliement Building.: Check it out on google maps!
Last, but not least we can see the Chain Bridge which takes us to the Buda Castle, to which we would
drive trough the Castle Tunnel:
Check it out on google maps! Find out more about Budapest's sights!
Hy guys,
I made a subtitled version for the Hungarian music video, which premiered last week.
I hope it's enjoyable, and those of you, who preferred this version to the English one can from now on understand it too. Here's the video:
And here are the lyrics:
Hungarian English
Én nem tudtam I didn't know
hogy az ember mindent túl él that people can survive anything.
Én nem sírtam I didn't cry,
pedig engem eltörtél. when you tore me apart.
Vártam hogy a nap többé
nem kel majd fel. I' waited for the end,
De hajnal lett újra but the dawn came,
és indulnom kell. and I have to go.
Szerelem miért múlsz, Love, why do you fade away?
Szerelem mért fájsz? Love, why do you hurt so bad?
Szerelem hol gyúlsz?, Love, where do you come from?
Szerelem hol jársz? Love, where did you go?
Hol vagy,hol nem, At times you're here,
a szívemben at times you're not in my heart.
mért nincsen csend? I need silence!
Szerelem miért múlsz, Love, why do you fade away,
Szerelem mért vársz? Love, why do you wait?
Most bánat ráz, Now, I remember
átjár egy régvolt láz. I feel the old fever.
Hát lépnem kell, I have to go,
itt rám dől minden ház. my past is colliding.
Az érintés emlékét I have to
így tépem szét. forget your touch.
Társam már nincs más I have no company,
csak a száguldó szél. other, than the blowing wind.
Szerelem miért múlsz, Love, why do you fade away?
Szerelem mért fájsz? Love, why do you hurt so bad?
Szerelem hol gyúlsz?, |Love, where do you come from?
Szerelem hol jársz? Love, where did you go?
Hol vagy,hol nem, At times you're here,
a szívemben at times you're not in my heart.
mért nincsen csend? I need silence!
Szerelem miért múlsz, Love, why do you fade away,
Szerelem mért vársz? Love, why do you wait?
(Még húz)Húz (You still) still
(Még vonz)Vonz (Pull me) me
(Még fáj) to you.
(Még húz)Húz (You still) still
(Még vonz)Vonz (Pull me) me
(Még fáj) to you.
10 lépés,100 lépés 10 steps, 100 steps
távolság kell. I need distance from you.
Nem számít merre It doesn't matter where,
csak el,tőled el. just far away from you.
Mit mondhatnál, What more could you say?
mit mondhatnék, What can I say?
Elkoptunk rég, We're not, who we used to be.
szemeinkből nézd, Look, where is the light
hova tűnt a fény? from your eyes?
Szerelem miért múlsz, Love, why do you fade away?
Szerelem mért fájsz? Love, why do you hurt so bad?
Szerelem hol gyúlsz?, |Love, where do you come from?
Szerelem hol jársz? Love, where did you go?
Hol vagy,hol nem, At times you're here,
a szívemben at times you're not in my heart.
mért nincsen csend? I need silence!
Szerelem miért múlsz, Love, why do you fade away,
Szerelem mért vársz? Love, why do you wait?
(Válj szabaddá!Szállj világgá!) Be free, fly away
Szerelem hol vársz? Love, where are you?
Élnem kell! I have to live my life!
Kell egy új remény! |I need a new hope'
(Vágy repíts fel!Új remény kell!) Desire, help me, I need new hope!
Szerelem miért múlsz? Love, why do you fade away?
Hy Everybody,
this is my first blog post. I created the blog basically to promote this year's Hungarian Eurovision entry.
I'd like to post here most of Kati Wolf's TV appearances - if possible in form of videos with English subtitle, if not, then in form of english transcripts.
My goal is to give a chance for the Non-Hungarian part of Europe to get to know Kati.
First, here's Kati's official music video:
