The sudden death of the songwriter František Nedvěd crushed the family, fans and colleagues from the music industry. Probably the worst, however, is the singer Jan Nedvěd’s departure of his brother. He barricaded himself in a cottage in Sázava and no one can get to him now.
“Dad won’t let me in either. He did shoulders, but he really loved Uncle Francis most of all. “Hostility on the outside, but one soul on the inside,” he told the newspaper lightning songwriter’s son Jan Nedvěd Jr. The complicated relationship between the two siblings was really a bit like riding a roller coaster. Although the brothers did not allow themselves and received great fame, they quarreled many times in their lives and did not talk at all for many years. Legendary singers managed to reconcile only a few months ago, and even planned a big concert together in the o2 arena. Unfortunately, it will never happen again.
Only Pavlínek and a dog can go there
As soon as the singer Jan Nedvěd learned that his brother had succumbed to cancer, he immediately closed himself off from the whole world. He barricaded himself in a cottage in Sázava, where he tried to cope with the loss of a close sibling. The musician does not want to talk to anyone and the only one who can approach the artist at all is his wife Pavlínek and a dog. František died at a time when Nedvědi was looking for a way to each other again after a long time.
It was not very optimistic among the brothers this spring. “Everyone lives elsewhere. He has his worries, I have my worries. He had diseased teeth, heart and so on. We each live our lives. We didn’t argue. We are like two strangers, so sometimes it happens. Maybe we will get together now and it will be big, “said František for Express. Apparently he was indirectly referring to a period when the brothers could not come up with a name.
Twenty-five years ago, Nedvědi sold out the Strahov stadium, where an incredible 70,000 fans came. But then came a sharp fall, when musicians often quarreled. At that time, the brothers were arguing over money, music and women. “We broke up five times. How would I say it out loud so I wouldn’t touch anyone. When someone starts to burn good housing, they start doing things that are incompatible with living together, “František Nedvěd said in an interview for Téma magazine.
Minister of Resilience and Durability
Therefore, when Jan showed up at the Old Town Square in June this year, where František and his wife Maria celebrated their golden wedding, it was a huge surprise for everyone. “I had no idea that my brother was coming today,” František told Expres at the time. The singer was said to have no idea if he was happy with Jan’s presence. something like the Minister of Resilience and Durability. Hats off. It must have been a huge love that they felt for each other, “said Jan. Although he did not attend the ceremony itself, he made it clear how much he cared about his brother.
In addition, the folk artists began planning a spectacular concert in the o2 arena, the preparations of which were postponed several times due to health reasons. At first František suffered from cancer, then Jana suffered from dental problems and had abdominal sepsis. “We would like to perform, we are talking about it, but time is ruthless, it is stupid, but fair. I will be 75 years old and my brother 74. We have so much beautiful behind us, “Jan said optimistically at the time. No wonder now that the singer needs time to come to terms with the death of his brother, who meant so much to him.
