Doufám (acoustic live in Lavaux), Majvely song performed by JustJess

‘Doufám’ was written by me sometime in 2016. A year later we recorded it in a studio with my former band, ‘Majvely’. The song became sort of our anthem – the one that was always demanded by the audience. Well… it’s simple and catchy, so I guess I am not surprised by that. There were times when we even hated playing it and yet… looking back at the era, this song will probably be the most significant to what we were. Young, hopeful and pursuing our dreams.

Standing alone, performing this song while my band is 1200 Km away felt really strange. I had to gather all my courage to do it – I never felt good as a solo artist. But I wanted to have a musical souvenir of this beautiful place – Lavaux vineyards and my instagram followers decided that it should be this song.

I hope you like it.


Písničku “Doufám” jsem napsala někdy v roce 2016. O rok později jsme ji studiově nahráli s mojí kapelou, Majvely. Od té doby se stala jakousi naší hymnou – tím, co posluchači chtěli slyšet nejvíc. No… je to taková chytlavá věcička, tak se asi hold není čemu divit. Byly doby, kdy jsme ji měli tak oposlouchanou a ohranou že jsme ji začali nesnášet. Ale i tak, když se na to dívám zpětně, je asi nejtypičtější pro to, co jsme jako kapela byli – mladí, plní nadějí a snů.

Stát sama s kytarou a hrát tuhle písničku, zatím co kluci z kapely jsou 1200 Km daleko je opravdu divný pocit. Musela jsem sebrat hodně odvahy, abych to udělala – nikdy jsem se totiž necítila uplně dobře sólo. Ale chtěla jsem si odvézt hudební suvenýr z vinic v Lavaux a moji sledující na instagramu rozhodli, že by to měl být právě tenhle song.

No… tak snad se vám to líbilo.
