This is an insanely sentimental song for many Polish people. It is about love that a young man feels for his sweetheart, the longing to be with her and the extent to which he is willing to go to achieve that. It was a staple of absolutely every Polish dance party for decades. Still is. There is just something in his voice that melts hearts :) Many a young Polish person experienced their first kiss or first love to the tune of this song. I am almost 40 but I still remember how I was awkwardly asking girls to dance with me to this song during summer camps in the 90s. When this song was playing no girl ever refused even thou I was a fat fu*k back then :D
Yeah, but it's also about a longing for the youthful days (and nights) and for the passionate love of those long gone times. That's what makes it so sentimental, that feeling that this time is gone, things are not that straightforward any more, passions not that simple.
Oh man... It's a song about a love affair a guy has with another man's wife who works abroad. The protagonist remembers the fling now years later and while admiting what they did was wrong, his memories of unfaithful Jolka are fond nevertheless. Dziecko spało za ścianą, czujne jak ptak Niechaj Bóg wyprostuje mu sny! The kid slept in the other room Vigilant like a bird May God set his dreams straight! Whose child do you think the song refers to? Tip: not the protagonist's but Jolka's hubby saving up all his earnings in GBP so he may buy a frighteningly beautiful Toyota car. Dud you miss the part about 'your husband', the fiancee and the bus full of ?
Great song ! Here is the lyrics: Jolka, Jolka, do you remember that summer of dreams, When you kept writing: “I feel so bad Come to me even right now, do something with me, Don’t leave me here alone, oh no." Still begging for petrol, I raced through the night, The engine groaned with the last of its strength, To be in you again, to laugh and to swear, Everything was so simple those days. A child slept behind the wall, watchful as a bird, May God sweeten his dreams! You told me that never, never before Have your tears been as sweet as blood. In the morning I emigrated away from your arms, The day drove me out, at night I returned once again. The eclipse of the sun was destined for us, The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years. The nuns walked along the beach, and the sun going down, It kept falling, unable to fall. Your husband out in the world saved up every pound, For a Toyota, so beautiful, it's sad. Your husband loved order and a full glass, He once had a fiancée like a dream, She betrayed him with a bus full of Arabs, He was never himself again, oh no. In the morning I emigrated away from your arms, The day drove me out, at night I returned once again. The eclipse of the sun was destined for us, The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years. We lived in a big bathtub and so rarely We crawled out onto the dry land, The Fairy Booze Godmother danced within us, Shooting gallery* was two steps away. I still don't know why it started like that, Why it faded - no one knows either, There are still many around me, I don't wake up alone, But nothing is simple these days.

Let's start with the name, Jola is pretty mych equivalent to Yolanda, and Yoli is short for Yolanda,so it should go something like: Yoli, Yoli, remember the Summer of dreams? When you wrote me, "I'm so miserable. Get away, even right now, do something with me, don't leve me here by myself. Oh no!". Always begging for fuel, I raced through the night, engine wheezing with last of it's might. To be in you again, to laugh and to curse, things were all so simple those days
Some information about that Festival: 1) Americans forced the Foundation who runs the Festival to change the name of the Festival from "Przystanek Woodstock" (Woodstock Stop) to "Pol'n'Rock Festival" 2) The Festival is run by the "Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy" (The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity) which every year runs a charity festival in the Winter across all of Poland, even the smallest villages and by now its our Polish national tradition to participate in it. This is what peak Civil Society looks like 3) Both festivals are run by volunteers (this includes the stewards, security, medics, pretty often artists too etc) 4) Its completely free. No reservations or tickets required. Of course you need to pay for your drinks and food tho 5) Its a multiday festival. In this particular 2014 edition 750 thousand people participated in the celebration of love without boundries (everyone is welcome, no matter what your religion, political background, nationality, gender or sexual preferences are, you are always welcome). 6) Its way more than just a music festival. There are educational and discussion panels with celebrities, politicians, artists, even Noble Prize winners like in the 2014 edition Muhammad Yunus from Bangladesh (Noble Peace Prize) had panel and 2 of our polish noblists - Lech Wałęsa (Noble Peace Prize winner) and Olga Tokarczuk (Noble Prize in literature) had their panels respectively in 2015 and 2019. You can also participate in plenty of workshops starting from art and ending in life saving. 7) Its not only Polish bands and artists. There are plenty very famous international bands that took part in the festival like Papa Roach, Metallica, The Prodigy, Die Toten Hosen, Machine Head, Sabaton, Damian Marley, Anthrax, Black Label Society, Shaggy, House of Pain and so on. The overwhelming majority of Polish people consider both festivals our national treasure and a lot of people are calling for a Noble Peace Prize for the foundation due to its outstanding impact on establishing and cultivating an unmatched Civil Society as Russias invasion of Ukraine has proven where approximately a couple millions of Polish People actively participated in the relief operation for the Ukrainian refugees (more than 5 million Ukrainian refugees entered Poland and so for right now its estimated that around 1.3 million Ukrainian refugees are still sheltered by our society - Poland has 38 million citizens btw). You could see in comment sections of videos about the Ukrainian refugee crisis that foreigners from around the world are demanding a Noble Peace Prize for the Polish society (its not up to me to judge we deserve or not, also it kind of silly to give an entire society a prize). Of course thats flattering, but that would be to much, especially since every society has its bad apples. Anyway. If you have the ability to travel to Europe coming to the Pol'a"Rock Festival is a really good idea. All you need (beside tickets for the flight, other transportation and food) is a tent (thats most peoples accommodation for the Festival and there are prepaired places for that on the Festival area).
Was there. It was unforgettable. The best concert I've ever been. Just look. See it? No phones. Just a massive crowd singing the whole song with the band.
I didn't think about it, but that's true: it was a real experience, touching everybody in the crowd. I was there as well, my throat died at this gig :D all the generations singing together, nobody even remembered about having the phone. I miss this feelings
This song is 40 years old in 2024, it was 30 back in 2014 and the young Poles still know the lyrics. It tells you something about how popular this band is. They formed somewhere at the end of 60's.
Budka Suflera - a band founded in Lublin in 1974 by Krzysztof Cugowski and Romuald Lipka. Known for such hits as: "Dream about the valley", "For the last penny", "Jolka Jolka, you remember", "Takie Tango" or "Ball of All Saints". The band has released 25 studio and live albums. Suflera's booth - a booth where a prompter used to sit and advise actors on the theater stage. Here the song is performed by Felicjan Andrzejczak, the vocalist of the band Budka Suflera in 1982-1983.
Jolka, Jolka, do you remember that summer of dreams, When you kept writing: “I feel so bad Come to me even right now, do something with me, Don’t leave me here alone, oh no." Still begging for petrol, I raced through the night, The engine groaned with the last of its strength, To be in you again, to laugh and to swear, Everything was so simple those days. A child slept behind the wall, watchful as a bird, May God sweeten his dreams! You told me that never, never before Have your tears been as sweet as blood. In the morning I emigrated away from your arms, The day drove me out, at night I returned once again. The eclipse of the sun was destined for us, The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years. The nuns walked along the beach, and the sun going down, It kept falling, unable to fall. Your husband out in the world saved up every pound, For a Toyota, so beautiful, it's sad. Your husband loved order and a full glass, He once had a fiancée like a dream, She betrayed him with a bus full of Arabs, He was never himself again, oh no. In the morning I emigrated away from your arms, The day drove me out, at night I returned once again. The eclipse of the sun was destined for us, The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years. We lived in a big bathtub and so rarely We crawled out onto the dry land, The Fairy Booze Godmother danced within us, Shooting gallery* was two steps away. I still don't know why it started like that, Why it faded - no one knows either, There are still many around me, I don't wake up alone, But nothing is simple these days. * meaning as a place of purchase of illegal alcohol: "shooting gallery"," "the finish line"-In polish slang "Meta"
Some interesting facts for you :) The main vocalist here is Felicjan Andrzejczak, he was in the band for less than two years back in 80s, but he recorded this legendary song with them. For the most of band's history (and during this concert) Krzysztof Cugowski was the main singer, you can see him in sunglasses at 6:33. And those two young guys to the right, vocalist and guitarist, are Cugowski's sons. And long haired keyboardist is Romuald Lipko, he wrote like half or more of old Polish hits, not only for Budka Suflera, but for many, many famous Polish singers. He passed away in 2020 sadly, but will always be remembered as an absolute legend of Polish music!
My dad was listening to them, so did I. Its like led zeppelin of Poland, connecting generations. Jolka Jolka An obvious choince for karaoke during the party
I 'm curious how Felicjan Andrzejczak felt while singing this song. I wonder what it's like when, thirty or so years after creating a song, in a completely different reality, a completely different generation gathered in incredible numbers sings with you and knows every word of it. I think he might have thought at the time that this moment was worth living for.
@@globus9710 Tak, zgadza się to jest komentarz pod orginalnym filmikiem. Postanowiłam przetłumaczyć go na angielski dlatego że po pierwszę podpisuję się pod nim obiema rękami a po drugie chciałam , żeby dużo więcej osób go poznało ponieważ pokazuje prawdziwy sens i moc tego utworu. Pan Felicjan tylko wykonywał tą piosenkę razem z Budką suflera jako wokalista zespołu natomiast muzykę napisał Śp Romuald Lipko natomiast tekst napisł MarekDutkiewicz. Pozdrawiam 😄
This was the last great show of Budka. The man giving the introduction is Romuald Lipko. He was the composer and the pillar of the band. Sadly passed away in 2020. Jolka is woman's name. Short for Jolanta.
I was there at that exact show of Budka Suflera. It was incredible! Chills down my spine, goosebumps all over my skin and my throat just giving up from all the singing. I went to the front of the crowd, even tho i had my ankle sprained (On other concert). But it was so worth it! Budka Suflera is a legendary group in Poland, pretty much everybody knows them and the lyrics to some of their songs. I still have casette tapes of their albums.
Tak jak w 2014r. będąc w tym tłumie, płakałem śpiewając "Jolkę" razem ze wszystkimi innymi.. tak samo płakałem dzisiaj (10 lat później) oglądając ten odcinek i śpiewając "Jolka, Jolka, pamiętasz lato ze snu..." . Mimo że nie mam na imię Jolka, zapamiętam to lato i ten występ Budki na Woodzie do końca swojego życia... A ten kto tam wtedy nie był i nie stał w tym śpiewającym tłumie pokoleń, ten mnie prawdopodobnie nie zrozumie. Dla mnie lato w 2014, właśnie dzięki temu pożegnalnemu koncertowi Budki na Woodstocku, już zawsze będzie tym "moim" latem ze snu ^^ . Życzę wszystkim dużo zdrówka, uśmiechów i przyjemnego dnia 🖖😄
You're damn right - it's unforgettable experience. I was in that crowd: all the generations were singing along together. Beautiful. Even now I got tears in my eyes. Try to react to another song from the gig (even for yourself, not online): Jest taki samotny dom. Son starts to sing and then the father kicks in. Amazing composition as well
There is a lot to say about the song, about the lyrics, about the band, about who is on stage etc... it's difficult to explain this perform is so special.
Bardzo bardzo Ci dziękuję za tę reakcję. Budka Suflera to legenda i najlepsi z najlepszych. Ciary mnie przeszły od pierwszych akordów. Burza wspomnień w głowie i szybsze bicie serca... Super pomysł pana Jurka Owsiaka na ten festiwal. Nigdy na nim nie byłam i żałuję. Cudowne koncerty. Polecam Arahaja, też z tego koncertu. Dziękuję Ci 👍👍🇵🇱💕
Ja polecam Jest taki samotny dom. Młody zaczyna i daje radę, ale jak ojciec wjechał, to pokazał klasę. Świetny koncert i najlepszy, jakiego doświadczyłem na żywo :)
@@vampirinhopsl Pozazdrościć... 🤗. Jest ogromna różnica w odbiorze "na żywo". Ja byłam kiedyś na koncercie Dżemu... Jak jeszcze Rysiek śpiewał... Piękne czasy...
@@annawnuk3713 Niestety, na to się nie załapałem... Ale ten koncert Budki ze mną zostanie już na zawsze :) W tym tygodniu jadę pierwszy raz zobaczyć Scorpionsów na żywo, też może być ciekawie. Żałuję, że mi się nie udało pojechać na Nazareth jak była okazja - niestety było zamieszanie z biletami i mi koncert przepadł, a potem już było za późno :)
This song is based on a true story that happened in the 1980s, during the summer by the Polish seaside. The lyricist had been seeing Jolka for a while, whom he met by the sea. It also portrays the grim reality of the 1980s in Poland and the pursuit of unattainable dreams. Many generations have grown up with this song, so it holds a special place for them.
Jolka, Jolka pamiętasz / Lyrics Jolka, Jolka, you remember the summer from your dream Jolka, Jolka, pamiętasz lato ze snu When you wrote, "I feel so bad Gdy pisałaś: "Tak mi źle Get off right away Urwij się choćby zaraz Do something with me Coś ze mną zrób Don't leave here alone, oh no" Nie zostawiaj tu samej, o nie" Still begging for gas Żebrząc wciąż o benzynę I ran through the night Gnałem przez noc The engine was wheezing at its last Silnik rzęził ostatkiem sił To be in you again Aby być znowu w Tobie Laugh and curse Śmiać się i kląć Everything was so simple these days Wszystko było tak proste w te dni The baby was sleeping behind the wall Dziecko spało za ścianą Alert as a bird Czujne jak ptak May God straighten his dreams! Niechaj Bóg wyprostuje mu sny! You said never, never like that Powiedziałaś, że nigdy, że nigdy aż tak Your tears were as sweet as blood Słodkie były, jak krew Twoje łzy I emigrated from your embrace in the morning Emigrowałem z objęć Twych nad ranem The day drove me away, at night I came back again Dzień mnie wyganiał, nocą znów wracałem We were given a solar eclipse Dane nam było, słońca zaćmienie The next one will be, maybe in a hundred years Następne będzie, może za sto lat Nuns were walking along the beach, and the sun was down Plażą szły zakonnice, a słońce w dół It kept falling, unable to fall Wciąż spadało nie mogąc spaść Husband out there in the pound-pound world, putting down the pound Mąż tam w świecie za funtem, odkładał funt For a Toyota, they're beautiful, so scary Na Toyotę przepiękną, aż strach Your husband adored order and full glass Mąż Twój wielbił porządek i pełne szkło He had a fiancée once, like a dream Narzeczoną miał kiedyś, jak sen She cheated on him with the Arab bus Z autobusem Arabów zdradziła go He was never himself again, oh no Nigdy nie był już sobą, o nie I emigrated from your arms in the morning Emigrowałem z ramion Twych nad ranem The day drove me away, at night I came back again Dzień mnie wyganiał, nocą znów wracałem We were given a solar eclipse Dane nam było, słońca zaćmienie The next one will be, maybe in a hundred years Następne będzie, może za sto lat We lived in a big bathtub and rarely did W wielkiej żyliśmy wannie i rzadko tak We crawled onto dry land Wypełzaliśmy na suchy ląd The sorceress of booze danced in us Czarodziejka gorzałka tańczyła w nas The finish line was two steps away Meta była o dwa kroki stąd I still don't know why it started like this Nie wiem ciągle dlaczego zaczęło się tak No one knows why it died Czemu zgasło też nie wie nikt They're still different around me, I don't wake up alone Są wciąż różne koło mnie, nie budzę się sam
To była, jest i będzie zajebista muza👌 ... młodość, miłość i wolność do której się zmierzało 🤗.. inna sprawa czy tak to sobie wyobrażaliśmy 🤔.. Ale tamte czasy były inne, ludzie byli inni!!! ...
Interesting reaction, man - thanks. “Jolka” is a popular girl’s name in Poland (Jolanta =Yolanda) and “Jolka”, can be pronounced [Yolkah] The song was hard to translate as it is very poetical and besides of this, Polish words are longer. But I translated it for you, so you could know what it’s about. Yet my translation is not suitable for singing, sorry… Btw., Here is the original version, when they were in their twenties: ua-cam.com/video/Kyj0gPZV07I/v-deo.html ------- Yolkah, Yolkah (Yolanda, Yolanda) Can you remember that summer from dreams When you wrote me: "I feel so bad" Get off right away, do something to me Don't leave me here alone, please don’t Constantly begging for some gas I raced through the night The engine roared with all its might To be in you again! To laugh and swear… Everything was so simple those days Baby was sleeping behind the wall As watchful as a bird. May God straighten its dreams You told me that never ever before Were your tears as sweet as blood In the mornings I used to emigrate from your embrace Days drove me away, nights used to bring me back to you We were given a solar eclipse The next one will come, maybe in a hundred years Some nuns were walking along the beach, and the sun was setting down, but somehow couldn’t Your husband out there tried saving pound after a pound For Toyota - beautiful as a dream He loved order and wine He once had a fiancée, like a dream She cheated on him in a coach full of Arabs He was never himself again, oh no In the mornings I used to emigrate from your embrace Days drove me away, nights kept bringing me back to you A solar eclipse was given to us The next one may come in a hundred years time. On a big farm we lived, rarely stepped out onto dry land Magical Booze danced in us, A taphouse was two steps away I still don't know why it started like this And why it died down - no one knows Some are still by me, and I don't wake up alone any more But nothing is as simple these days
Pretty good! But not "finish line" only "taphouse" or "watering hole" or whatever other translation you want for a "meta", i.e. a place selling illegal, usually made-on-premises spirits (hooch, shine, moon, etc, ie "bimber"). Colloquially called "meta" or finish-line in Polish, because you rarely got any further than that place 😊
I was at this concert and it was beautiful. Felicjan Andrzejczak (the singer in this song) could just sing the first word and the crowd would carry on. Everyone, I mean everyone knew the lyrics and it was like the biggest choir I've ever heard.
I was there. I have been going to this festival since 2003 until today (next year I will be at Woodstock/Pol'and Rock Festival for the twentieth time). Beautiful times, the most beautiful time around 2014. ❤❤❤
One thing I can add here to these comments: almost every single person who was there in the crowd was born at least 10 years after this song was realesed. But because it is so great, and because if you play on the guitar, it is one of the "must-know-how-to-play". My dad (who was born in 1960's) was really suprised, that so many young people can sing it a cappella without band's vocalist :)
Jolka, Jolka, you remember the summer from your dream When you wrote, "I feel so bad Get off right away Do something with me Don't leave here alone, oh no" Still begging for gas I ran through the night The engine was wheezing at its last To be in you again Laugh and curse Everything was so simple these days The baby was sleeping behind the wall Alert as a bird May God straighten his dreams! You said never, never like that Your tears were as sweet as blood I emigrated from your embrace in the morning The day drove me away, at night I came back again We were given a solar eclipse The next one will be, maybe in a hundred years Nuns were walking along the beach, and the sun was down It kept falling, unable to fall Husband out there in the pound-pound world, putting down the pound For a Toyota, they're beautiful, so scary Your husband adored order and full glass He had a fiancée once, like a dream She cheated on him with the Arab bus He was never himself again, oh no I emigrated from your arms in the morning The day drove me away, at night I came back again We were given a solar eclipse The next one will be, maybe in a hundred years We lived in a big bathtub and rarely did We crawled onto dry land The sorceress of booze danced in us The finish line was two steps away I still don't know why it started like this No one knows why it died They're still different around me, I don't wake up alone But nothing is easy these days
Now imagine that parents of the audience were teenagers when this song was recorded. Audience reaction was shocking for everybody including members of the band. Nobody expected this.
@D, Date is already known: 1-2-3 August 2024. There will be a City of 1M+ for sure. Music and m u c h more. For free. Why. -> ua-cam.com/video/i5Hj0aXwNHM/v-deo.html This is: 1) Small stage 2) The Lady is 60+ y.o. 3) She's a composer of songs... for 5 year olds. 4) ALL those people knows lyrics, cause they'v heard them being diaper kids. 5) Title/chorus goes: "But I like my Mommy more......" This Festival is epic like no other.
It is not a once in the lifetime experience, it is every years experience, it is Pol'and'Rock music festival in Poland, earlier called Woodstock from US known festival ;)
Budka suflera - the name of the band, stands for: prompter's box. As the title of this song, it is YOLKA, YOLKA. It is a diminutive form of the name "Jolanta" - Yolanda, which comes from greek name "Iolanthe".
Here is english translation of lyrics (thx google :P) BTW - Jolka, is polish female's name. Title: 'Jolka, Jolka, do you remember' Jolka, Jolka, do you remember that summer of dreams When you kept writing: “I feel so bad Come to me even right now, do something with me Don’t leave me here alone, oh no."

I've been on Woodstock 9 years in a row. It's place where you're forgetting about your problems and everyone is like family over there. It's like getting your batteries charged for while next year. In 2014 on that concert was 700k people if i remember good. It is incredible experience. My heart is melting when I see this video
Lyrics: Jolka, Jolka, you remember summer from your dreams When you wrote: "I feel so bad Break off at least now Do something with me Don't leave me here alone, oh no" Still begging for petrol I raced through the night The engine roared with the last of its strength To be inside you again Laugh and swear Everything was so simple these days The baby was sleeping behind the wall As alert as a bird May God straighten out his dreams!

This group start when in Poland was comunism take a letters in Rus its Vodka ( Budka) in this they start all russians loves vodka its like water for us ( BTW vodka its from Poland begin ) and can translate some texts in sectrets fromcenzors .In comunism we have many secrets like enigma only wrom face to face ( not allways works )
To bad that CC was not available. You would have fuller picture of the meaning …. I love your reaction and that … hey is that the guy from Back to the future?😂
Omg that so weird been my favourite song since forever and my British husband though himself the words for my birthday one year lol. Another one he did was modlitwa by dzem
Niezapomniany Romuald Lipko. Dziękuję za wszystko co Pan stworzył. 🙏
This is an insanely sentimental song for many Polish people. It is about love that a young man feels for his sweetheart, the longing to be with her and the extent to which he is willing to go to achieve that. It was a staple of absolutely every Polish dance party for decades. Still is. There is just something in his voice that melts hearts :) Many a young Polish person experienced their first kiss or first love to the tune of this song. I am almost 40 but I still remember how I was awkwardly asking girls to dance with me to this song during summer camps in the 90s. When this song was playing no girl ever refused even thou I was a fat fu*k back then :D
Yeah, but it's also about a longing for the youthful days (and nights) and for the passionate love of those long gone times. That's what makes it so sentimental, that feeling that this time is gone, things are not that straightforward any more, passions not that simple.
I'd say it's about lost youth, or the longing for lost youth... Funny enough they were in their early 30s when they wrote the song
To prawda. A słyszeć na żywo to samo życie !!
Oh man... It's a song about a love affair a guy has with another man's wife who works abroad. The protagonist remembers the fling now years later and while admiting what they did was wrong, his memories of unfaithful Jolka are fond nevertheless.
Dziecko spało za ścianą, czujne jak ptak
Niechaj Bóg wyprostuje mu sny!
The kid slept in the other room
Vigilant like a bird
May God set his dreams straight!
Whose child do you think the song refers to? Tip: not the protagonist's but Jolka's hubby saving up all his earnings in GBP so he may buy a frighteningly beautiful Toyota car.
Dud you miss the part about 'your husband', the fiancee and the bus full of ?
You gay?
All those polish bands from 70,80 are the best. Songs of struggle in communist poland, but also love and happiness.
Great song ! Here is the lyrics:
Jolka, Jolka, do you remember that summer of dreams, When you kept writing: “I feel so bad Come to me even right now, do something with me, Don’t leave me here alone, oh no." Still begging for petrol, I raced through the night, The engine groaned with the last of its strength, To be in you again, to laugh and to swear, Everything was so simple those days. A child slept behind the wall, watchful as a bird, May God sweeten his dreams! You told me that never, never before Have your tears been as sweet as blood. In the morning I emigrated away from your arms, The day drove me out, at night I returned once again. The eclipse of the sun was destined for us, The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years. The nuns walked along the beach, and the sun going down, It kept falling, unable to fall. Your husband out in the world saved up every pound, For a Toyota, so beautiful, it's sad. Your husband loved order and a full glass, He once had a fiancée like a dream, She betrayed him with a bus full of Arabs, He was never himself again, oh no. In the morning I emigrated away from your arms, The day drove me out, at night I returned once again. The eclipse of the sun was destined for us, The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years. We lived in a big bathtub and so rarely We crawled out onto the dry land, The Fairy Booze Godmother danced within us, Shooting gallery* was two steps away. I still don't know why it started like that, Why it faded - no one knows either, There are still many around me, I don't wake up alone, But nothing is simple these days.

Good translation. Not poetic, but correct.
Shooting galery? Its illegal alcohol shop in private home 😉
Let's start with the name, Jola is pretty mych equivalent to Yolanda, and Yoli is short for Yolanda,so it should go something like: Yoli, Yoli, remember the Summer of dreams? When you wrote me, "I'm so miserable. Get away, even right now, do something with me, don't leve me here by myself. Oh no!". Always begging for fuel, I raced through the night, engine wheezing with last of it's might. To be in you again, to laugh and to curse, things were all so simple those days
it was a big concert by "woodstock" standards, around 8 hundred thousand to one million attendees. I was there, and i will never forget it
Some information about that Festival:
1) Americans forced the Foundation who runs the Festival to change the name of the Festival from "Przystanek Woodstock" (Woodstock Stop) to "Pol'n'Rock Festival"
2) The Festival is run by the "Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy" (The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity) which every year runs a charity festival in the Winter across all of Poland, even the smallest villages and by now its our Polish national tradition to participate in it. This is what peak Civil Society looks like
3) Both festivals are run by volunteers (this includes the stewards, security, medics, pretty often artists too etc)
4) Its completely free. No reservations or tickets required. Of course you need to pay for your drinks and food tho
5) Its a multiday festival. In this particular 2014 edition 750 thousand people participated in the celebration of love without boundries (everyone is welcome, no matter what your religion, political background, nationality, gender or sexual preferences are, you are always welcome).
6) Its way more than just a music festival. There are educational and discussion panels with celebrities, politicians, artists, even Noble Prize winners like in the 2014 edition Muhammad Yunus from Bangladesh (Noble Peace Prize) had panel and 2 of our polish noblists - Lech Wałęsa (Noble Peace Prize winner) and Olga Tokarczuk (Noble Prize in literature) had their panels respectively in 2015 and 2019. You can also participate in plenty of workshops starting from art and ending in life saving.
7) Its not only Polish bands and artists. There are plenty very famous international bands that took part in the festival like Papa Roach, Metallica, The Prodigy, Die Toten Hosen, Machine Head, Sabaton, Damian Marley, Anthrax, Black Label Society, Shaggy, House of Pain and so on.
The overwhelming majority of Polish people consider both festivals our national treasure and a lot of people are calling for a Noble Peace Prize for the foundation due to its outstanding impact on establishing and cultivating an unmatched Civil Society as Russias invasion of Ukraine has proven where approximately a couple millions of Polish People actively participated in the relief operation for the Ukrainian refugees (more than 5 million Ukrainian refugees entered Poland and so for right now its estimated that around 1.3 million Ukrainian refugees are still sheltered by our society - Poland has 38 million citizens btw). You could see in comment sections of videos about the Ukrainian refugee crisis that foreigners from around the world are demanding a Noble Peace Prize for the Polish society (its not up to me to judge we deserve or not, also it kind of silly to give an entire society a prize). Of course thats flattering, but that would be to much, especially since every society has its bad apples.
Anyway. If you have the ability to travel to Europe coming to the Pol'a"Rock Festival is a really good idea. All you need (beside tickets for the flight, other transportation and food) is a tent (thats most peoples accommodation for the Festival and there are prepaired places for that on the Festival area).
Woodstock Stop as in a bus stop to be more precise :)
Polska to piękny i dumny kraj pełen pięknych i wspaniałych ludzi !. Jestem dumny, że jestem POLAKIEM.
Wspaniałych ludzi i durnych wyborców każdej władzy.

Was there. It was unforgettable. The best concert I've ever been. Just look. See it? No phones. Just a massive crowd singing the whole song with the band.
I didn't think about it, but that's true: it was a real experience, touching everybody in the crowd. I was there as well, my throat died at this gig :D all the generations singing together, nobody even remembered about having the phone. I miss this feelings
This song is 40 years old in 2024, it was 30 back in 2014 and the young Poles still know the lyrics. It tells you something about how popular this band is. They formed somewhere at the end of 60's.
"Thats the guy..Back from the future"..OMG..😂😂😂
Wszyscy spiewali bo wszyscy sie wychowali na Budce Suflera ,super
FELEK the Singer Just died few days ago. It is song from 80s, this was the one greatest moment of his life I guess
Budka Suflera - a band founded in Lublin in 1974 by Krzysztof Cugowski and Romuald Lipka. Known for such hits as: "Dream about the valley", "For the last penny", "Jolka Jolka, you remember", "Takie Tango" or "Ball of All Saints". The band has released 25 studio and live albums. Suflera's booth - a booth where a prompter used to sit and advise actors on the theater stage. Here the song is performed by Felicjan Andrzejczak, the vocalist of the band Budka Suflera in 1982-1983.
Romuald Lipko😉
"Takie Tango" po angielsku to będzie "Such a Tango", a "Jolka, jolka..." to mimo wszystko "Jolka, jolka do you remember".
Pozdrawiam
@@przemysawjozwiak144 Thanks from the mountain :P
Felicjan Andrzejczak
Jolka, Jolka, do you remember that summer of dreams,
When you kept writing: “I feel so bad
Come to me even right now, do something with me,
Don’t leave me here alone, oh no."
Still begging for petrol, I raced through the night,
The engine groaned with the last of its strength,
To be in you again, to laugh and to swear,
Everything was so simple those days.
A child slept behind the wall, watchful as a bird,
May God sweeten his dreams!
You told me that never, never before
Have your tears been as sweet as blood.
In the morning I emigrated away from your arms,
The day drove me out, at night I returned once again.
The eclipse of the sun was destined for us,
The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years.
The nuns walked along the beach, and the sun going down,
It kept falling, unable to fall.
Your husband out in the world saved up every pound,
For a Toyota, so beautiful, it's sad.
Your husband loved order and a full glass,
He once had a fiancée like a dream,
She betrayed him with a bus full of Arabs,
He was never himself again, oh no.
In the morning I emigrated away from your arms,
The day drove me out, at night I returned once again.
The eclipse of the sun was destined for us,
The next one will happen, maybe in a hundred years.
We lived in a big bathtub and so rarely
We crawled out onto the dry land,
The Fairy Booze Godmother danced within us,
Shooting gallery* was two steps away.
I still don't know why it started like that,
Why it faded - no one knows either,
There are still many around me, I don't wake up alone,
But nothing is simple these days.
* meaning as a place of purchase of illegal alcohol: "shooting gallery"," "the finish line"-In polish slang "Meta"
Some interesting facts for you :)
The main vocalist here is Felicjan Andrzejczak, he was in the band for less than two years back in 80s, but he recorded this legendary song with them. For the most of band's history (and during this concert) Krzysztof Cugowski was the main singer, you can see him in sunglasses at 6:33. And those two young guys to the right, vocalist and guitarist, are Cugowski's sons. And long haired keyboardist is Romuald Lipko, he wrote like half or more of old Polish hits, not only for Budka Suflera, but for many, many famous Polish singers. He passed away in 2020 sadly, but will always be remembered as an absolute legend of Polish music!
❤❤
❤❤❤
My dad was listening to them, so did I. Its like led zeppelin of Poland, connecting generations. Jolka Jolka An obvious choince for karaoke during the party
I 'm curious how Felicjan Andrzejczak felt while singing this song. I wonder what it's like when, thirty or so years after creating a song, in a completely different reality, a completely different generation gathered in incredible numbers sings with you and knows every word of it. I think he might have thought at the time that this moment was worth living for.
Kopia kropkę w kropkę z komentarza pod oryginałem xd pomijając już że przy całym szacunku do pana Felicjana to nie on stworzył te piosenkę
@@globus9710 Tak, zgadza się to jest komentarz pod orginalnym filmikiem. Postanowiłam przetłumaczyć go na angielski dlatego że po pierwszę podpisuję się pod nim obiema rękami a po drugie chciałam , żeby dużo więcej osób go poznało ponieważ pokazuje prawdziwy sens i moc tego utworu. Pan Felicjan tylko wykonywał tą piosenkę razem z Budką suflera jako wokalista zespołu natomiast muzykę napisał Śp Romuald Lipko natomiast tekst napisł MarekDutkiewicz. Pozdrawiam 😄
Zespół z mojego miasta jestem dumnym z bycia Polakiem
I was there! Amaizing gig, legendary Polish band!
This is live and he still sounds so amazing, not like most 'artists' these days.
My fathers fav band dobro gwoz dobre piosenkie
I'm just 23 years old and this band is not from "my times" but man, every tima i hear this song i've got tears in my eyes. Such a beutiful song
Song is about Love of coz. Jolka is a name of a girl.
I was crying.
Thx
Classic and timeless! A perfect example of the melancholic Polish soul. Thanks for the reaction. Greetings form Poland! :D
This was the last great show of Budka. The man giving the introduction is Romuald Lipko. He was the composer and the pillar of the band. Sadly passed away in 2020. Jolka is woman's name. Short for Jolanta.
I was there at that exact show of Budka Suflera. It was incredible! Chills down my spine, goosebumps all over my skin and my throat just giving up from all the singing. I went to the front of the crowd, even tho i had my ankle sprained (On other concert). But it was so worth it!
Budka Suflera is a legendary group in Poland, pretty much everybody knows them and the lyrics to some of their songs. I still have casette tapes of their albums.
Stary, fantastyczny przebój. Dużo cudownych wspomnień.
Tak jak w 2014r. będąc w tym tłumie, płakałem śpiewając "Jolkę" razem ze wszystkimi innymi.. tak samo płakałem dzisiaj (10 lat później) oglądając ten odcinek i śpiewając "Jolka, Jolka, pamiętasz lato ze snu..." .
Mimo że nie mam na imię Jolka, zapamiętam to lato i ten występ Budki na Woodzie do końca swojego życia... A ten kto tam wtedy nie był i nie stał w tym śpiewającym tłumie pokoleń, ten mnie prawdopodobnie nie zrozumie.
Dla mnie lato w 2014, właśnie dzięki temu pożegnalnemu koncertowi Budki na Woodstocku, już zawsze będzie tym "moim" latem ze snu ^^ .
Życzę wszystkim dużo zdrówka, uśmiechów i przyjemnego dnia 🖖😄
You're damn right - it's unforgettable experience. I was in that crowd: all the generations were singing along together. Beautiful. Even now I got tears in my eyes. Try to react to another song from the gig (even for yourself, not online): Jest taki samotny dom. Son starts to sing and then the father kicks in. Amazing composition as well
The best Polish rock ballads❤End ,,Ewka"Perfekt❤
There is a lot to say about the song, about the lyrics, about the band, about who is on stage etc... it's difficult to explain this perform is so special.
Band "Perfect" song "Autobiografia" or "Niepokonani"
Best concert in my life ❤
I miss Woodstock and the best people from Poland at the festival. The best audience ever:)
Bro, true legend is DŻEM "WEHIKUŁ CZASU".
Jolka ❤❤❤ Budka Suflera zawsze będzie w naszych sercach❤
Bardzo bardzo Ci dziękuję za tę reakcję. Budka Suflera to legenda i najlepsi z najlepszych. Ciary mnie przeszły od pierwszych akordów. Burza wspomnień w głowie i szybsze bicie serca... Super pomysł pana Jurka Owsiaka na ten festiwal. Nigdy na nim nie byłam i żałuję. Cudowne koncerty. Polecam Arahaja, też z tego koncertu. Dziękuję Ci 👍👍🇵🇱💕
Ja polecam Jest taki samotny dom. Młody zaczyna i daje radę, ale jak ojciec wjechał, to pokazał klasę. Świetny koncert i najlepszy, jakiego doświadczyłem na żywo :)
@@vampirinhopsl Pozazdrościć... 🤗. Jest ogromna różnica w odbiorze "na żywo". Ja byłam kiedyś na koncercie Dżemu... Jak jeszcze Rysiek śpiewał... Piękne czasy...

The lead singer of BUDKA SUFLERA- KRZYSZTOF(Chris) CUGOWSKI (singing jolka jolka) is the father of two guys singing in Polish Metal Aliance :)
It was the last official concert of this band. I was there❤ it was amazing
OMFG , you reacted to BTS before 😊 I watched them 😂
I'm Polish, now I'm watching you reacting to one of the best of Polish rock band's EVER !
Tera is an older gentleman,Romuald Lipko is unfortunately no longer alive,but in his time they were great and this singer's voice was wonderful.
❤
This song is based on a true story that happened in the 1980s, during the summer by the Polish seaside. The lyricist had been seeing Jolka for a while, whom he met by the sea. It also portrays the grim reality of the 1980s in Poland and the pursuit of unattainable dreams. Many generations have grown up with this song, so it holds a special place for them.
Pozdrawiam z Polski👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍😊😊😊😊😊😊
aż mam ciary.. 💪🇵🇱👑🇵🇱👑🇵🇱👑💪 zajebisty utwór
Best wish from North America 😊
You are welcome to visit Poland ❤
Funny, greetings from Poland.
Some of the performances can hold for decades . Amazing concert with soule and love 💕🎶🎼

Lyrics
Jolka, Jolka, you remember the summer from your dream
Jolka, Jolka, pamiętasz lato ze snu
When you wrote, "I feel so bad
Gdy pisałaś: "Tak mi źle
Get off right away
Urwij się choćby zaraz
Do something with me
Coś ze mną zrób
Don't leave here alone, oh no"
Nie zostawiaj tu samej, o nie"
Still begging for gas
Żebrząc wciąż o benzynę
I ran through the night
Gnałem przez noc
The engine was wheezing at its last
Silnik rzęził ostatkiem sił
To be in you again
Aby być znowu w Tobie
Laugh and curse
Śmiać się i kląć
Everything was so simple these days
Wszystko było tak proste w te dni
The baby was sleeping behind the wall
Dziecko spało za ścianą
Alert as a bird
Czujne jak ptak
May God straighten his dreams!
Niechaj Bóg wyprostuje mu sny!
You said never, never like that
Powiedziałaś, że nigdy, że nigdy aż tak
Your tears were as sweet as blood
Słodkie były, jak krew Twoje łzy
I emigrated from your embrace in the morning
Emigrowałem z objęć Twych nad ranem
The day drove me away, at night I came back again
Dzień mnie wyganiał, nocą znów wracałem
We were given a solar eclipse
Dane nam było, słońca zaćmienie
The next one will be, maybe in a hundred years
Następne będzie, może za sto lat
Nuns were walking along the beach, and the sun was down
Plażą szły zakonnice, a słońce w dół
It kept falling, unable to fall
Wciąż spadało nie mogąc spaść
Husband out there in the pound-pound world, putting down the pound
Mąż tam w świecie za funtem, odkładał funt
For a Toyota, they're beautiful, so scary
Na Toyotę przepiękną, aż strach
Your husband adored order and full glass
Mąż Twój wielbił porządek i pełne szkło
He had a fiancée once, like a dream
Narzeczoną miał kiedyś, jak sen
She cheated on him with the Arab bus
Z autobusem Arabów zdradziła go
He was never himself again, oh no
Nigdy nie był już sobą, o nie
I emigrated from your arms in the morning
Emigrowałem z ramion Twych nad ranem
The day drove me away, at night I came back again
Dzień mnie wyganiał, nocą znów wracałem
We were given a solar eclipse
Dane nam było, słońca zaćmienie
The next one will be, maybe in a hundred years
Następne będzie, może za sto lat
We lived in a big bathtub and rarely did
W wielkiej żyliśmy wannie i rzadko tak
We crawled onto dry land
Wypełzaliśmy na suchy ląd
The sorceress of booze danced in us
Czarodziejka gorzałka tańczyła w nas
The finish line was two steps away
Meta była o dwa kroki stąd
I still don't know why it started like this
Nie wiem ciągle dlaczego zaczęło się tak
No one knows why it died
Czemu zgasło też nie wie nikt
They're still different around me, I don't wake up alone
Są wciąż różne koło mnie, nie budzę się sam
Budka Suflera Jest taki samotny dom Woodstock 2014
Jolka (read: Yolka) - Polish diminutive of name Jolanta (eng. Yolanda)
I WAS HERE AND I NEVER FORGOT THIS... NEVER!!!
To była, jest i będzie zajebista muza👌 ... młodość, miłość i wolność do której się zmierzało 🤗.. inna sprawa czy tak to sobie wyobrażaliśmy 🤔.. Ale tamte czasy były inne, ludzie byli inni!!! ...
Interesting reaction, man - thanks. “Jolka” is a popular girl’s name in Poland (Jolanta =Yolanda) and “Jolka”, can be pronounced [Yolkah]
The song was hard to translate as it is very poetical and besides of this, Polish words are longer. But I translated it for you, so you could know what it’s about. Yet my translation is not suitable for singing, sorry…
Btw., Here is the original version, when they were in their twenties: ua-cam.com/video/Kyj0gPZV07I/v-deo.html

Yolkah, Yolkah (Yolanda, Yolanda)
Can you remember that summer from dreams
When you wrote me: "I feel so bad"
Get off right away, do something to me
Don't leave me here alone, please don’t
Constantly begging for some gas
I raced through the night
The engine roared with all its might
To be in you again! To laugh and swear…
Everything was so simple those days
Baby was sleeping behind the wall
As watchful as a bird.
May God straighten its dreams
You told me that never ever before
Were your tears as sweet as blood
In the mornings I used to emigrate from your embrace
Days drove me away, nights used to bring me back to you
We were given a solar eclipse
The next one will come, maybe in a hundred years
Some nuns were walking along the beach, and the sun was setting down, but somehow couldn’t
Your husband out there tried saving pound after a pound
For Toyota - beautiful as a dream
He loved order and wine
He once had a fiancée, like a dream
She cheated on him in a coach full of Arabs
He was never himself again, oh no
In the mornings I used to emigrate from your embrace
Days drove me away, nights kept bringing me back to you
A solar eclipse was given to us
The next one may come in a hundred years time.
On a big farm we lived, rarely stepped out onto dry land
Magical Booze danced in us,
A taphouse was two steps away
I still don't know why it started like this
And why it died down - no one knows
Some are still by me, and I don't wake up alone any more
But nothing is as simple these days
Pretty good! But not "finish line" only "taphouse" or "watering hole" or whatever other translation you want for a "meta", i.e. a place selling illegal, usually made-on-premises spirits (hooch, shine, moon, etc, ie "bimber"). Colloquially called "meta" or finish-line in Polish, because you rarely got any further than that place 😊
@@michaelwisniewski6047 - Ok, thanks! I changed it to a taphouse.
Try Tadeusz Woźniak Zegarmistrz Światła. There may not be as much crowd on stage, but there is just as much emotion and message.
Mechanik Jurecki as Doc from Back to future 😂 love this man! ❤ thanks a lot for this video!
I was at this concert and it was beautiful. Felicjan Andrzejczak (the singer in this song) could just sing the first word and the crowd would carry on. Everyone, I mean everyone knew the lyrics and it was like the biggest choir I've ever heard.
We all feel the same. Music frees. This song is a symbol. He is in me and with me. Regards
Wojtek i Piotrek Cugowscy też są :) muszę na Woodstock pojechać :)
Good reading of Budka Suflera ;) Yolka Yolka
I was there. I have been going to this festival since 2003 until today (next year I will be at Woodstock/Pol'and Rock Festival for the twentieth time). Beautiful times, the most beautiful time around 2014. ❤❤❤
One thing I can add here to these comments: almost every single person who was there in the crowd was born at least 10 years after this song was realesed. But because it is so great, and because if you play on the guitar, it is one of the "must-know-how-to-play".
My dad (who was born in 1960's) was really suprised, that so many young people can sing it a cappella without band's vocalist :)
One of '80s giants
D-i love You!!!and the text guy from back to the future....killed me!!!:)))))))))

I was there, and that was magical!
Now imagine that parents of the audience were teenagers when this song was recorded. Audience reaction was shocking for everybody including members of the band. Nobody expected this.
D! Come to PolandRock in 2024 (!!!!!) There will be 30th anniversary. You can live it by yourself
@D, Date is already known: 1-2-3 August 2024.

This is:
1) Small stage
2) The Lady is 60+ y.o.
3) She's a composer of songs... for 5 year olds.
4) ALL those people knows lyrics, cause they'v heard them being diaper kids.
5) Title/chorus goes:
"But I like my Mommy more......"
This Festival is epic like no other.
Budka suflera,, Jest taki samotny dom"
I was there as young kid. One beautiful thing no fkn phone only vibe and peace
The guy from the future id Mietek 'Mechanik' Jurecki. Multi Instrumentalist.
It is not a once in the lifetime experience, it is every years experience, it is Pol'and'Rock music festival in Poland, earlier called Woodstock from US known festival ;)
I was there, and that was one of the best experience I ever had on concert.
Budka suflera - the name of the band, stands for: prompter's box.
As the title of this song, it is YOLKA, YOLKA. It is a diminutive form of the name "Jolanta" - Yolanda, which comes from greek name "Iolanthe".
Here is english translation of lyrics (thx google :P)
BTW - Jolka, is polish female's name.
Title: 'Jolka, Jolka, do you remember'
Jolka, Jolka, do you remember that summer of dreams
When you kept writing: “I feel so bad
Come to me even right now, do something with me
Don’t leave me here alone, oh no."

I am lucky that as a Pole I have been to woodstok 4 times. This place stops the world every time. It reminds you what is important and makes you cry.
Dear D as usual you are the best♥️
I was there, although I'm not a big fan of Budka Suflera, it's definitely impossible to forget
I was there with my wife and friends and it was magical ;)
I've been on Woodstock 9 years in a row. It's place where you're forgetting about your problems and everyone is like family over there. It's like getting your batteries charged for while next year.
In 2014 on that concert was 700k people if i remember good. It is incredible experience. My heart is melting when I see this video
nice reaction, as usual ,thanks

With a bus of Arabs she cheated on him
He was never himself again, no (...)
