Background

,,Already decided'' was written by lead vocalist Ivana Vasileva in the quarantine period in North Macedonia(Covid-19 pandemic) in March 2020, forced by Ivan Kukic who came up with the idea to compose a song for her that is comercial, funky and groovy. Ivana wrote the lyrics and the other day Ivan Kukic composed the whole song and offered her to record it. Kukic had already recorded the bass guitar on the song. Ivana went to the studio with Ivan, recorded the song and fell in love with the song the moment she sang it. Following much pressure with her English accent she recorded the song many times after consulting with many U.S. citizens, university professors about pronounciation and grammar check. Zoran Trendov-guitar player (student on Jazz academy) went into the studio with Ivan, recorded the funky guitar and the guitar solo on the song. Everyone formed a personal connection to the song and they described it as "different'' than the ones they prefere playing on their gigs and concerts. After two months working on the song and details, they decided to record a brass section and came up with the idea to invite Dzambo Agusev known as '''the funky tiger'' as a guest. After many tries, and almost one year pause with the work in the studio and the song, the brass section was decided to be recorded from the young Saxophone player Aleksandra Ilieva.

The song was recorded,mastered by Ivan Kukic at Studio 202 in Strumica, North Macedonia.

Musically ''Already decided'' is a funky, Nu-disco song. The song runs for 4 minutes and 14 seconds and is composed in 4/4 time and the key of Em.

Lyrics

Already decided

I've been drippin' for your love and

All I think about is that night

when you made me feel wanted and loved

And I need it /2

Wanna talk it over, you better pick up the phone,

Don’t even think about quitting!

I’ve already decided,

already decided,

I’ve already decided,

already decided

I've been drippin' for your love and

All I think about is that night

when you made me feel wanted and loved

And I need it /2

Wanna talk it over, you better pick up the phone

Don’t even think about quitting

You got my attention

So don’t make any tension

Don’t just observe

I need what I deserve

already decided/4

already decided

I’ve already decided

already decided

I’ve already decided

already decided

(already decided)

I’ve already decided

(I’ve already decided)

already decided

(already decided)

I’ve already decided

(decided)

Wanna talk it over, you better pick up the phone

Don’t even think about quitting

You got my attention

so don’t make any tension

Don’t just observe

I need what I deserve/2

Already decided
