A little info about Urszula Dudziak

Urszula Dudziak (born October 22, 1943) is a leading Polish jazz vocalist. She has worked with such artists as Krzysztof Komeda, Michał Urbaniak (her ex-husband), Gil Evans, Archie Shepp, and Lester Bowie. Her song Papaya has recently gained large popularity in Asia and Latin America where it has been added a very distinctive dance called Papaya Dance.

Dudziak was born in the Straconka neighborhood of Bielsko-Biała, Poland. She studied piano, but began to sing in the late 50s after hearing records by Ella Fitzgerald. Within a few years she was one of the most popular jazz artists in her native country. She met and later married Michal Urbaniak, In the late 60s they began to tour overseas and in the 70s settled in New York.

Dudziak has few language problems, as she customarily eschews words in favour of wordless vocalizing that is far more adventurous than scat. Already gifted with a remarkable five-octave vocal range, Dudziak employs electronic devices to extend still further the possibilities of her voice. She has frequently worked with leading contemporary musicians, including Archie Shepp and Lester Bowie, and was a member of the Vocal Summit group, with Jay Clayton, Jeanne Lee, Bobby McFerrin, Norma Winstone, Michelle Hendricks, and Lauren Newton.

TRIVIA:
The recent popularity of Dudziak's Papaya song started in the Philippines where it was regularly featured in a local noontime TV game show. A favorite track for philippine drag queens as lip-synch material in the '70s disco/bar scene, the song refreshed the era in the hearts of those who delighted in the song's upbeat jazz-funk rhythm and uber-campy appeal when it originally came out 30 years ago.

This video does not and has no intention of making fun of Urszula Dudziak or her works. As a matter of fact, i used the original music of Urszula Dudziak to show my gratitude and respect for the artist.

Please do not get the wrong idea that we are making fun of your famed artist.

If you find the video annoying, because of the people's funny moves and jolly grooves, then please refrain from watching the video.

After all, we are not forcing you to watch it. Thanks and I apologize for those who were affected by this matter.
