They’re the Serbian girl group with a habit of singing songs with Spanish titles. But now Hurricane — that’s Sanja Vučić, Ivana Nikolić and Ksenija Knežević — are proving they can work it in English as well, with a special version of “Loco Loco”.
In March, Sanja told us that the song is a call for women to break with tradition and to have the confidence to approach men if they’ve got a crush. The English version of “Loco Loco” continues with that theme, putting women — and in this case Sanja, Ivana and Ksenija — firmly in control of a romantic situation.
The new version comes with a slick music video filmed at RTS studios in Belgrade. It features the three women performing with plenty of social distance on a specially built stage. Behind them we see screens with simple geometric lighting and what appear to be abstractions of blue and purple jellyfish. No matter. The real focus here is on the three gorgeous voices, which come into sharp focus owing to pared-back (and rather laid-back) production.
Loco Loco lyrics — Hurricane (English Version)
“Basically, it’s a love song,” Sanja told us. “It’s something about a girl and a boy.” However, it’s not a typical Disney-style romance where the damsel in distress waits patiently for a prince to come her way. Oh no. As you can read in the English lyrics below, the singers perform from a position of power, showing they are most definitely in control.
Nothing seems to matter when you’re with me,
I can rock your world, easily drive you crazy
It’s clear they enjoy tantalizing and teasing, and they know their Mister feels it too.
I want you real close, want you begging
Are you feeling the burn, feeling the fire?
Hey, hey what’s wrong baby?
You’ve been so sad lately,
Hey, hey what’s wrong
Seems like candy, I can drive you loco
The chorus maintains the cutesy rhythm and flow of the Serbian original, ultimately delivering the message that these women can drive this guy crazy.
I’m acting live a diva,
You better run, run, run,
Give me some, some, some,
I am the one, one, one
I can drive you loco, loco
Are you loving the song in English? Do you think it maintains the pizzaz and fire of the original? Let us know down below!

“Slayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy queeenzzzzzz hurricane is coming.”
Please don’t
haters leave! great serbia will make the final.. grand final is srbija
LOL why are people here talking about lips???
Btw this version slays but I prefer the song in Serbian
Maybe because there are still many primitive people who value women based on their looks.
All I see is lips ?
Divas stay divas slaaaaay
Such a low level of song, pure thrush!
Such a low level of spelling accuracy 🙂
Me looking at the comment section be like…
Expectation: Praise or criticism towards the group or the English version of the song
Reality: Lips
The lips especially of one girl is fo extremeny ugly.I wonder,they see it as nice in the mirror?
Goo girls! With every new version you’ve brought a completely different vibe and I’m equally enjoying every single one of them. ???
Is it not actually sad ? I am getting tired of them changing the song all the time…especially as the original version is already very good and does not need to be changed
Oh, I find their lips beautiful
They’re so talented!!!
Looks like the Hurricane haters are in the comments though ):
Actually only Ivana, blonde one, had her lips done.. Since I see everyone is talking about that instead of music..
Then you my friend, know nothing of plastic surgery and how the enhancement of lips looks like.. fyi, all three of them had it done, but Ivana especially had a very bad lip job done..
Ksenija didn’t. You can check out how she looked when she was a kid of 16, in her first group called “SKY’S”. She looked exactly the same as now.
Ivana and Sanja are open about using lip fillers
see, there is the “revamp” i was talking about all the time, and even language change… this one as well as the acoustic one has melody a development a journey, it is more pleasant for the ear and for the brain.. it is not plain same beat 3 minutes..
ironic considering you take every chance to say rude and unnecessary things about destiny
Well… safe to say if they had sent this they would be borderline qualifiers… I would say with a high chance of staying in the semi. Their lips, however… oh those lips
Only Ivana has lip fillers.. left other two alone! Especially Ksenija who is 100% natural girl.
Oh, I know that! Besides, I’ve mentioned it myself on another article. I meant it positively (Ksenija is also my favourite, probably out of all the female artists this year)
Cheaper than Poundland
Poundland—is that the new name for the UK after Brexit??
I can’t be the only one thinking their lips look ridiculous…
At the end of the day, those are their lips. If they feel happy about them, nobody should judge them.
Great, great, great! It sounds and looks modern with some interesting camera angles. This is giving me high hopes for their live performance in May 🙂
By that version we can understand somehow the Serbian lyrics and I understand why many people complain about the lyrics, something I usually ignore
English lyrics are not really a translation of the Serbian one. English version is much more random and incoherent
…which is an improvement.
Btw Hurricane hate is so strong here, that people are downvoting a comment that is objectively true. YIKESSS
If you don’t speak Serbian, why do you downvote? If you speak Serbian, which part of the Serbian version is more random than the English verison?
