I can’t understand what he’s saying. I have a hard time with voices as it is, and no sub titles. No jokes for me today.
they say he’s a hero of robert di nero? i didn’t finish watching it.
It sounded to me like he was singing;
Tramping and jumping,
Today is trendy.
Tramping and jumping,
I’m Trendy Andy!
There is also some stuff about our yugest national embarrassment,
it’s quite nice.
“Elite European sophistication” ? We beg to differ.
only song that applies to him
I don’t think the singer knows what he’s saying either.
I was about to comment on how bad this is (which there is no denying), but curiosity gave me pause so I went over to Andrzej’s Polish Wiki page for a look. https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrzej_Rosiewicz
I’d be curious if any Polish readers have more insight into this guy. Is this his schtick? Or is he being intentionally bad on this occasion?
Either way - he is a 75 year old man dancing on TV with a young lady. Props.
I’m sorry, but this was just terrible and now I’ve got this tune in my head.
This is idiotic
Couldn’t help but feel sorry for the old guy.
Here’s something to rinse your ears…
Also:
"Sing and jump (repeat)
Sing all together for Donald Trump"
I understand (parts of) it, but I really don’t get it.
I guess it’s a weirdly idiotic pro-Trump song, Poland having taken a very hard-right turn in recent years, of which Donald Trump approves (and the feeling is therefore mutual)?
Roger That!
Thanks for that! My faith in the internet has been restored.
I would not be so sure. Judging by this guys CV - it is likely a loosely disguised parody. Someone from Poland can likely confirm or deny.
I guess that he’s intentionally bad. Maybe it was meant to be something like Rammstein’s “Amerika”? Anyway, it’s so bad that it’s hard to watch and I completely don’t get it. On Wikipedia there’s link to his live performance for Mikhail Gorbachev in 1988:
The performance is highly critical of Soviet Union(especially Polish parts of song), he also wears hat with inverted Soviet star
I am sure this was @beschizza’s evil plan all along.
I can’t tell what’s going on here, but I love the parts where he says “Everybody!” and there isn’t anybody.
