In the 60s, Corsica was the place to be for vacations and the good life. Dominique Marfisi, exiled on the mainland, composed Solenzara in this context. Enrico Macias, who had returned from Algeria, revived it. Twenty-five years later, Goran Bregovic reused Solenzara for In the Deathcar, sung by Iggy Pop. The soundtrack to Emir Kusturica's Arizona Dream sells 150,000 copies in six months. Kusturica and Bregovic, like Enrico Macias earlier, are losing their country, Yugoslavia.
