Some interesting Polish songs

Lao Che - Wojenka ('War')
It's not that I like this song - frankly speaking, it's difficult to 'like' a song like this. It is simply very shocking. This song says about war, but shows it as a little, cruel girl. She is a weird child, because, instead of ice creams she wants bones.  One of the line says: 'Who will bring her bones? Maybe I, maybe you'...
In the beginning of 'Wojenka' there is a childish counting-out rhyme, but it's about serious problems.
There is also astory of a soldier - he have also feelings and he doesn't want to participe in this inhuman conflict. Especially he has just started a family and he needs to survive to assure its existence.


The next song is Bóg ('God') by T.Love.
It's very interesting, because nowhere in the lyrics is the title of this song. What's more, the refrain is 'I want to be your frind'. Because of that, we think it's a song of a human. Only the title tells us that the truth is different.
This song doesn't show the God as someone old and strict with long beard, but as a buddy who we can confess of every our problems. It's very interesting and rare seen point of view.



The last song is Piosenka z praniem w tle ('The song with laundry in a background', I guess).
I listened to it a lot of times, but still I can't establish if it's sad or happy. The music is very cheerful, but lyrics are about unhappy love. It is about a couple that don't want to be together anymore and courage one another to leave the house... But they can't do it, because they love themselves.
Anyway, the voices of vocalists are amazing :)
