Забранената звезда

Emotional Bulgarian chalga ballad, mid-tempo with rich Balkan ornamentation, male vocals upfront. Intro starts sparse with synth pad and kanun flourishes, then darbouka and deep kick enter on first verse. Pre-chorus lifts with rising strings and tight backing vocals echoing key phrases. Chorus explodes with wide harmonies and dramatic chord holds; backing singers answer the lead in call-and-response. Brief spoken-word breakdown over stripped arrangement before the final chorus, then big ad-lib runs and held notes to close.
