Piosenka o mojej Warszawie - Sången om Warszawa

[marekryszka]

I am proud how this man who sings, pronouces the word "Warszawa" Polish is not easy to pronounce for foregin people, but he does that perfectly, like it should be in polish!

I am Polish and I am proud to hear that song in other languages. I have never realized, that it was sung in Swedish. I don't know that launguage, so I cannot judge it, but the original text is very beautiful and poetic. It is sung by a man who misses his pre-war warsaw, tells that he wants to walk again through some streets and districts of Warsaw. Thank you and greetings from Poland!

@marekryszka Yes, this was a popular song in post-war Scandinavia. It was recorded by at least two Swedish singers, this one and by Bertil Bo that can also be viewed on YT. The version by Bertil Bo is actually the more popular one, but I think this version by Gustaf Torrestad is better. The Swedish lyrics is about Warszawa that has be devastated by the war, but shall again raise it's head and glory as before. I think that many post war Europeans could relate to the song in that time.

@husbondensrost Could you perhaps share the lyrics of this song with us? I can't find them on google.

@mundialreklamy Here you go, I have now written the lyrics in the video description.

Thank you so much:)

Judging by GoogleTranslate, Polish version sung by M. Fogg (ironically a descendant of Swedish immigrants) is much more personal, which fits well together with the fact that he himself was a Warsaw insurgent.

This one is great too, though!

trevlig gammal rör radio du har. vad är det för model?. funderar själv på att skaffa en gammal rör radio att reparera och sedan använda.

@agfamatic91 Radion är en Bernau tillverkad av Stern Radio i Tyskland 1960. Den har för något år sedan blivit genomgången av en radiomontör som var med på den tiden det begav sig. Radion är den bästa ljudkällan i hushållet. Trähöljet gör att den producerar underbara djupa bastoner, 78-varvs-skivorna gör sig verkligt fina i den. Tack vare grammofoningången kan man ansluta alla tänkbara ljudkällor och därmed även avnjuta internetradio eller Youtube uppladdningar genom den.

@husbondensrost

låter trevligt.

jag köpte faktiskt en gammal rör radio idag. det var en AGA från 50 talet i en fin träkabinett (som dock behöver en rejäl rengörning) just nu fungerar den inte men jag ska snart ta och reparera den (så snart jag får tag på lite starkströms kondensatorer)

den har ochså en grammofoningång föresten.
