Budka Suflera - Jolka, Jolka  

Niezapomniany Romuald Lipko. Dziękuję za wszystko co Pan stworzył. 🙏

Dżolka dżolka XDDD

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..😂😂😂

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.

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!

Zespół z mojego miasta jestem dumnym z bycia Polakiem

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

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.

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"

The lead singer of BUDKA SUFLERA- KRZYSZTOF(Chris) CUGOWSKI (singing jolka jolka) is the father of two guys singing in Polish Metal Aliance :)

I miss Woodstock and the best people from Poland at the festival. The best audience ever:)

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.

Wojtek i Piotrek Cugowscy też są :) muszę na Woodstock pojechać :)

Try Tadeusz Woźniak Zegarmistrz Światła. There may not be as much crowd on stage, but there is just as much emotion and message.

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 :)

I was there, and that was magical!

Good reading of Budka Suflera ;) Yolka Yolka

One of '80s giants

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.

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".

nice reaction, as usual ,thanks

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.

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

Kultowy zespół

Cheers from Poland brother o7

There were about 750 000 people there

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

Good luck men

Jolka to zdrobnienie imienia Jolanta/Jola a tak czule to... Jolka🙂

@reaction by D. I gaf the Opportunity to Records that Song on Woodstock nad work on the CD. That was hardcore job!!! 10 milion people. Btw the CD is recorded 7.1

Apel do Polaków: weźcie ku... nie zlatujcie się na komentarze wszędzie, gdzie pojawi się coś o Polsce, bo kur... człowiek chce poczytać co ludzie ze świata piszą, a nie cebulaki podczas orgazmu! Dziękuję, że nie zostałem wysłuchany.

Back to the future guy😂😂😂😂😂

Jolka pozdrawia Miśka..

Jolka, Jolka do you remember... Jolka Jolka, Can you recall that summer of dreams When you used to write: “I’m feeling so sad Come to me even at once Do something with me Don’t leave me alone, here, never." Begging for a drop of petrol, I ran like a wind (And the engine was on its last legs) To be in you again, Laugh aloud and swear Everything was so easy these days. Child was sleeping behind the wall, as watchful as a bird, Please good God, correct his Dreams! You told me that your love was never so big, And the blood was as sweet as your tears. I was departing from your arms at pale dawn A day drove me out but at night I came back. We were allowed to see the eclipse, It would take ages to notice the next one. Nuns were strolling through the beach, and the sun setting down It kept hurtling but couldn’t fall. Your husband in a big world, collecting every cent To buy Toyota frightfully splendid. Your husband worshiped an order and a full glass Once he had fiancée from dreams, But she was unfaithful to him in a bus of Arabs, He was never the same again. I was departing from your arms at pale dawn A day drove me out but at night I came back. We were allowed to see the eclipse, It would take ages to notice the next one. We were living in a big bath and rarely we have been crawling into the dry shore. The magic booze was whirling in our cells Main goal was just a stone’s throw away. I stll can't imagine how it started in this twisted way Why it faded, no one knows as well, I'm surrounded by the others, never wake up alone, But nothing is so easy these days. lyricstranslate.com

in polish you read Jolka, Jolka as Yolka, Yolka, it is a short of Jolanta, a name...

All lyrics are easy to get from internet ....

I've been in the crowd ;)

The lyrics are very important

Yolka, Yolka.

Nie wierz nigdy kobiecie z moim wujkiem

We invite you to the Pol'and'Rock Festival (formerly Polish Woodstock) in Czaplinek From August 1 to 3, music non-stop. Admission to all concerts and festival events is completely free. Come to Poland and experience these days together with several hundred thousand music fans 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. 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).

Moja piosenka

You actually pronounced Budka Suflera perfectly :) Jolka (Yolka) is a Polish female name

PRL wychował nieprawdopodobnych artystów, w tym muzyków i aktorów.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-D6VCJmUXbHg.htmlsi=7H4x-3Bt0xyvAjVA Proponuję ten kawałek posłuchać

You felt emotions on crowd and singing. But - lyrics are more important. If you want and have time - take a time and find a translation.

Żeby zrozumieć ten tekst ,musiałbyś zyć w Polske w latach PRL,czyli za panowania komunistów,ZSRR,kIEDY pOLSKA BYŁA POD PANOWANIEM zWIĄZKU rADZIECKIEGO.Wyzwoliliśmy się dopiero w 1990 roku,w tym roku zakończyła się u nas okupacja.

All those polish bands from 70,80 are the best. Songs of struggle in communist poland, but also love and happiness.

Wszyscy spiewali bo wszyscy sie wychowali na Budce Suflera ,super

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!

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.

Polska to piękny i dumny kraj pełen pięknych i wspaniałych ludzi !. Jestem dumny, że jestem POLAKIEM.

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).

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.

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

This is live and he still sounds so amazing, not like most 'artists' these days.

I was there! Amaizing gig, legendary Polish band!

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

Bro, true legend is DŻEM "WEHIKUŁ CZASU".

Song is about Love of coz. Jolka is a name of a girl. I was crying. Thx

Band "Perfect" song "Autobiografia" or "Niepokonani"

Budka Suflera Jest taki samotny dom Woodstock 2014

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.

750,000 spectators at the festival. And free entry!

FELEK the Singer Just died few days ago. It is song from 80s, this was the one greatest moment of his life I guess

Classic and timeless! A perfect example of the melancholic Polish soul. Thanks for the reaction. Greetings form Poland! :D

Pozdrawiam z Polski👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍😊😊😊😊😊😊

The best Polish rock ballads❤End ,,Ewka"Perfekt❤

Jesteś bardziej Polakiem niż myślisz

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

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: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Kyj0gPZV07I.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

The guy from the future id Mietek 'Mechanik' Jurecki. Multi Instrumentalist.

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 !

Pan Felicjan Andrzejczak zmarl nagle 2 tygodnie temu.....

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

aż mam ciary.. 💪🇵🇱👑🇵🇱👑🇵🇱👑💪 zajebisty utwór

Stary, fantastyczny przebój. Dużo cudownych wspomnień.

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.

You are welcome to visit Poland ❤

It was the last official concert of this band. I was there❤ it was amazing

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.
