kaprys 3 | 2101 29 Oct 2017 #32I'm sorry guys but neither Ludzie wschodu nor Laleczka z saskiej porcelany is actually full of useful everyday vocabulary.If anyone wants to learn Polish or any other language, choose a genre of music you like. However, a beginner should look for songs with useful vocabulary.
koniczynka 29 Oct 2017 #33I think it's more about to help to discover some unknown artists and songs in particular language and just enjoy listening the music. The way to get useful vocabulary is a phrase book full of everyday conversations.
kaprys 3 | 2101 29 Oct 2017 #34@koniczynkaHave you seen the topic of this thread? Laleczka z saskiej porcelany brings some nice childhood memories but it's just a song for kids.Anyway, as long as you like it and it may help others learn Polish, why not.
koniczynka 30 Oct 2017 #35kaprys Ive seen but since the author is gone I just wanted to add some songs worth to know in this thread instead to create a new one. Maybe somebody finds sth interesting among these :Ania Iwanek & Pati Sokół ft. Piotr Cugowski - MiastoBiada - niemaGOtuMichał Gasz & Piotr Rubik - To cała prawdaAnna Jantar - Nic nie może wiecznie trwaćUrszula - Dmuchawce, Latawce, WiatrWilki - Baśka
spiritus 69 | 643 31 Oct 2017 #36How about listening to Marek Grechuta ? His music style is very much poetry based so should be easy to hear the lyrics
kaprys 3 | 2101 31 Oct 2017 #37@spiritusHe was amazing.Both the pace of his songs and his diction should make things easy to understand. Dni, których nie znamy is fantastic.Some songs by Czerwone Gitary like Kwiaty we włosach seem good for the purpose of learning for the same reason.
pawian 220 | 24664 5 Aug 2023 #38I really appreciate how I am able to hear his lyrics nice and clear.Check this beautiful ballad from the Polish western (or eastern) Law and Fist from 1960s. Sung by a professional actor with excellent diction. English subs available.
mowiciel prawdy 19 Jan 2024 #40Miki Mausoleum from Wroclaw is also quite good, although that sort of ketchup is much cheaper today than it used to be:youtube.com/watch?v=PRK9-c2ts6IDonald Tusk is the best though, I have never heard anyone singing so beautifully, he truly deserves to be the Führer:youtube.com/watch?v=k7g3YKurDxw
mowiciel prawdy 21 Jan 2024 #41a jeśli mam być szczery, to przyznam, że bardzo lubię stare polskie tango.Mieczysław Fogg - Ostatnia niedziela, 1936:youtube.com/watch?v=N-hg58QQmdchere is the Soviet version/rip-off, still immensely popular. it is hard to believe that it was actually also popular among people who ruled USSR at the time. Hey, maybe they only invaded Poland to get their hands on all of these records? I would... I wouldn't, I mean.Павел Михайлов - утомленное солнце, 1937:youtube.com/watch?v=8cTLRYTVvl8
