Budapest (Hungarian: [ˈbudɒpɛʃt]; names in other languages) is the capital and the largest city of Hungary, and one of the largest cities in the European Union. It is the country's principal political, cultural, commercial, industrial, and transportation centre, sometimes described as the primate city of Hungary. According to the census, in 2011 Budapest had 1.74 million inhabitants, down from its 1989 peak of 2.1 million due to suburbanisation. The Budapest Metropolitan Area is home to 3.3 million people. The city covers an area of 525 square kilometres (202.7 sq mi). Budapest became a single city occupying both banks of the river Danube with the unification of Buda and Óbuda on the west bank, with Pest on the east bank on 17 November 1873.
The history of Budapest began with Aquincum, originally a Celtic settlement that became the Roman capital of Lower Pannonia.Hungarians arrived in the territory in the 9th century. Their first settlement was pillaged by the Mongols in 1241–42. The re-established town became one of the centres of Renaissance humanist culture by the 15th century. Following the Battle of Mohács and nearly 150 years of Ottoman rule, the region entered a new age of prosperity in the 18th and 19th centuries, and Budapest became a global city after its unification in 1873. It also became the second capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a great power that dissolved in 1918, following World War I. Budapest was the focal point of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, the Hungarian Republic of Councils in 1919, the Battle of Budapest in 1945, and the Revolution of 1956.

When I got home, I took the words I had written and made songs out of them. I've got some friends who say, 'I'm going to sit down and write 3 songs today,' and then they sit down and write 3 songs. I can't do that. I can't just write a song. I needed to take that trip and it helped a lot."Wanted on Voyage was recorded between early November 2013 and mid January 2014 at producer Cam Blackwood's Voltaire Road Studios in Clapham, South London.

Travel video about destination Budapest in Hungary. Budapest, capital of Hungary, is the pearl of the Danube and a constantly changing metropolis. Hungary was once a kingdom but then came the Turks, who were followed by the Habsburgs and Maria Theresia who became 'Queen of Hungary'. The historic centre of Budapest is dominated by its noble castle that towers above the banks of the Danube. A 100 metre long cable railway that dates back to 1870 is both a practical and fascinating way to ascend the hill to the castle. Each day, the area around the castle, the Fischerbastel, that has never played a military role, attracts large numbers of tourists. Margareten Island is set amid the Danube and is Budapest's vast entertainment area. It was at its most colorful during the Romantic period of the...

Deep asleep as I awaken by a murder cry, a phone ring
Stumble around the room to find my feet
An anxious office man, asking why I never paid on time
again
No excuse, I've better things to do
I've got so much more to give
But it all comes down to this,
Life gets in the way, Life gets in the way
Life gets in the way of what I want to say
I need a reason why, I need a stronger high
I need to find a way to make me want to stay
Driving round again
A traffic island, all the exits blocked again
Except the one, and I know where it goes
Stare at the playground wall
Tell me what the circles' for, cos I don't know
Maybe I'm the only one who don't know
I've got so much more to give,
But it all comes down to this,
Life gets in the way, Life gets in the way
Life gets in the way of what I want to say
I need a reason why, I need a stronger high
I need to find a means to stretch me at the seams.
A river running down an estuary for streams.
A lightning bolt to light the bedside table lamp.
Picasso on a wall in a home for the blind.
A hurricane to dry the washing on the line.
A tanker to my door, so I can fill my car.
I need to find a way to make me want to stay.
Why should I stay? Why should I stay?
Why should I stay? Why should I stay?
Why should I stay? Why should I stay?
Why should I stay?
