Byłam na tym koncercie i pamiętam kiedy Rysiek zaczał śpiewać List do M zaparło nam dech w piersiach. To było bardzo emocjonalne. Bardzo dużo z moich znajomych walczyło z nałogiem. Kiedy śpiewał Rysiek łzy płyneły nam po twarzach. To było bardzo głębokie. ❤️
Zazdroszczę Ci ze byłeś na koncercie Ryśka. Mam nadzieję że u Twoich znajomych jest wszystko dobrze. Sama wyszłam z nałogu i wiem jakie to trudne. Pozdrawiam.
Ryszard Riedel z zespołu "Dżem" zaśpiewał tylko jedną piosenkę z Czesławem Niemenem ! To był wielki talent! Porównywano go do Niemena ,ale niestety zaćpał się chłop!
@@matthw97bpm Przecież piszę że był z niego wielki talent. Porównywano go do Niemena i gdyby żył mógł bardzo wiele osiągnąć.Szkoda tak utalentowanego człowieka!
Ryszard Riedel was a true hippie of Polish rock scene, had drug problems and died soon after that performance, and the song is a letter to his mum from rehab, he was 100% natural and he would pour all his heart in his singing, there will never be any more like him in today's plastic music industry. There's a recording of him somewhere where the crowd is chanting "Rysiek, sing for us", and he comes out on the stage and says "I will always be singing for you, right till the end" . A true legend.
Rysiek Riedel was one of the greatest Polish musicians of all time unfortunately he was addicted to heroin and struggled for years what caused heart failure. He is greatly missed by many. That song is a letter to his mother is like confession about his suffering caused by loneliness and complete doubt in the existence of God. The enormous pain and endless despair can be heard most during the chorus, although the text does not directly refer to drugs, the text of the song is a kind of metaphor for Riedel's addiction to them. A truly fantastic performer and band with many hits a special “Naiwne Pytanie” or “Sen o Wiktorii” and if you like List do M there is another confession song by Dżem and Rysiek it’s called Modlitwa III. It's a pity that nowadays songs with lyrics as authentic as this are rarely written.
This is a fantastic description of the very complex meaning of the song. You just needed to remember the time the song was written. At the bottom line, it is a description of the generation of people who were not meant for the time that was happening around them, which is very significant for many musicians from the 80s and early 90s.
Prawdziwa legenda polskiej muzyki. Wokalista porywał tłumy swoim śpiewem. Na koncertach miał przy sobie harmonijkę ustną. Sam nauczył się na niej grać, jak również na gitarze. Odszedł młodo, zniszczony nałogiem narkotykowym.Na nagrobku Riedla jest cytat:"W życiu piękne są tylko chwile" z utworu "Naiwne pytania". Jeden z moich ulubionych wokalistów. Dziękuję za reakcję i serdecznie pozdrawiam z Polski
He was an addict and usually sang under the influence of drugs, but he sang better than most of the current "artists". However, his songs were about life... about what he lived and experienced in life. Songs such as "Wechikół czasu", "Czerwony jak cegła", „Harley mój”, „Jak malowany ptak”, „Sen o Victorii”, „Autsajder”, „Złoty paw”, "Whisky", or "List do M.", it's hard to choose which song is the best, because they are all wonderful works of musical art.
Pamiętam Ryśka, wspaniały i skromny człowiek. Mieszkał blisko mnie, osiedle obko mojego. Znalem też jego Sebastiana też bardzo skromny i fajny gość. Nie wiele teraz takich artystów w Polsce
Szacunek dla obu. Tylko dlaczego mówicie to tutaj, pod tym typem, który w dobie internetu chce niby poznać polską muzykę, kulturę, a nie zadaje sobie minimum trudu, żeby wcześniej zrobić rozeznanie w internecie? To jakiś pozer.
What can I say ? It's wonderful that you've chosen Dżem in live version. I was at that concert. The vocalist and the band is an absolute legend here in Poland. No words can express what emotions people had when listening to their live performances. The band still plays and gathers at it's concerts three generations of fans (unfortunately without the original vocalist who died in 94). True and undisputed legend.
najlepszy zespół ze śląska, słuchając oryginału łzy płyną za każdym razem. To muzyka i teksty tak bardzo przepełnione emocjami... @Mer Pol poczytaj historie człowieka i zespołu ...
I feel pain hearing all of Dżem songs, this man sacrificed everything for music, he was the music. His problem with strong addiction to drugs did not stopp him from being always for people, once he said "i will be singing to you always, no matter what". Despite of his problems, he was openly saying how terrible it is and nobody should follow his steps. Few generations love him and his music, it is one of a kind. The lyrics about pain, loneliness and freedom are really from the bottom of his heart
It's an iconic, legendary Polish band, very famous and known up till now. Especially with the band's charismatic frontman Ryszard Riedel, who died in 1994 (he was addicted to drugs). There was even a whole movie about him titled "Destined to blues" (Skazany na bluesa), with good actors, like Tomasz Kot playing the lead role. The band Dżem had more very famous, good songs.
I po co to tłumaczysz temu pajacykowi? Udaje zainteresowanie polską kulturą, a nic nie robi, żeby ją poznać. Tylko: podeślijcie, powiedzcie, wytłumaczcie. Wszystko dla zasięgów.
It is about specific type of loneliness about depression : he has someone next to him but yet he is alone, he thinks about death and about God and thinks back about his mum.... It's a letter to his Mother: Mama, I am writing a poem to you - Maybe the last one, definitely the first one It's night, it's dark, she is next to me There is some music there, no it's something else choruses: Being alone hurts so much, it's deep inside of me, it's all around I think there is no God Mama, I thought it was you that hurt me, but it was me - I hurt you I'm sorry mama.....
The vocalist was fighting with depression and addiction, there actually is a movie about him, because he died after somewhat successful carrier. He has a wife and a son yet he couldn't get it together
Dżem - Jam . this is the translation of the band's name. Ryszard Rydel is unfortunately no longer alive, he died in tragic circumstances. A film was made of it entitled "Skazany na Bluesa", because it is more Polish blues than rock. In this song, he sings about writing a letter to his mother and feeling the loneliness that he associates with hell. He doesn't use that word, but it can be understood that way. A very sad but beautiful song, but he also had positive songs, such as Sen o Wiktoria.- Sen o Viktorii .
Po co kłamać o jakiś "tragicznych okolicznosciach", jeśli zmarł na serce, a przyczyną były narkotyki, które wiele lat brał i żadna pomoc bliskich mu ludzi nie skutkowała. Kiedy zmarł, nie był już członkiem Dżemu, bo został usunięty z zespołu za niemożliwość współpracy z wiecznie naćpanym Riedlem. Robicie z niego boga, a był słabym, choć utalentowanym, człowiekiem. Miejmy nadzieję, że jego syn nie wszedł na tę zgubną drogę i będzie śpiewał z Dżemem trzeźwym.
I always said that if DZEM were an english-speaking band, they would be a group comparable to the greatest in the world, like Guns n Roses or others. The incredible talent of Rysiek Ridel, great musicians and amazing, deep lyrics. It's a pity that only Poles could enjoy this band...
Hey, Mert Pol. If you're into Polish music, you should know that Dżem is simply Jam, which you know from the English language. So, please, pronounce it "JAM". That's what it was meant to be. And Jam, to be understood, must be... understood. You must know what Richard Riedel is singing about to be overwhelmed by emotions that the audience feels. This is a letter to his mother. This is so emotional, man! This music might not be the best technically, but it's the best meaning-wise! And you can't forget that he was a sick man. He was on drugs, he died because of drugs, and his band experienced a nightmare because of that. And we knew that, but we loved him. Please, respect that. A letter to M (like Mother) Mother, I’m writing a letter to you Maybe the last one, the first one for sure It’s the dead of night, the night is dark I’m in my bed, and she’s by my side And her breathing’s so calm Some music is reaching me now No, it’s a rustle I hear in my head I sit there, going under my tears I feel so sad, cause no one is here The fear is choking me The loneliness - such a terrible fear! It’s gripping me, it’s piercing through me! You know, mum, I have imagined in my head That there is no God, there is no God, no. There is no God, no. Oh, no It’s really calm, but there, in my home You are present; you won’t find me there There I won’t come back, I think I won’t Mum, I love you, I love you so much! I thought it was you who hurt me so much But it was I who crushed who you are So sad I got that so late I got to know that too late, yeah I got that too late The loneliness - such a terrible fear! It’s gripping me, it’s piercing through me! You know, mum, I have imagined in my head That there is no God, there is no God, no. There is no God, no. Oh, no The loneliness - such a terrible fear! It’s gripping me, it’s piercing through me! You know, mum, I have imagined in my head That there is no God, there is no God, no. I have imagined in my head That there is no God, there is no God, no. There is no God, no. Oh, no Mother, I’m writing a letter to you Maybe the last one, the first one for sure
I totally agree, we have the best rock in the world and in my opinion we can compare with the UK in this category. We had such masters as SBB, Budka Suflera, Niemen, Perfect, TSA, Amia, Kult and many, many others. Today it has all gone very wrong way, but we have such pearls as Smolik and Kev Fox and Coma. I suggest you take a look at the Heavy Metal scene as well, we are great in this category too.
I grew up in the city "Tychy" where the band Dzem was formed. In my opinion one of the best Rock /Blues Band from that era. I am a musician myself and still heavily influenced by those guys , love their music......top shelf stuff . Their music brings back memories of my city Tychy, which I miss a lot !!!! You could also check Rysiek's son Sebastian Riedel ( Band name ...Cree ). Sebastian's voice reminds me a lot of his father... great band as well. Cheers !

In August 2023 there was a Jam in Szczytna Śląska (I live next door). Despite the absence of Ryszard Riedel, the atmosphere of the concert was wonderful and hard to forget.
There is a very beautiful and quite accurately made movie "Skazany na bluesa" (rougly "Sentenced for Blues") about the life of this artist, the singer of Dżem. I highly recommend watching it or even making a reaction to it. The story of Ryszard is a beautiful but tragic one and his persona and music inspires young generations up until this day, also being quite advocative of not using drugs.
Hey mate, thanx for uploading this legendary band! Respect. Lots of memories coming back....I was growing up listening to this music. Also was fortunate enough to witness and attend 'live' performance of Dzem along with Rysiek. It was always extraordinary experience mate!! In this clip, the man at first introduced the band, public were waiting for them...6hrs. Song itself is a story of him writing a letter or rather poem to his mum. Once again thanks for upload. Cheers and one Love ❤️💛💚 from North Germany
Basically rip Rysiek Riedel was iconic person. "Jim Morrison of Poland". We were all going to their concerts, blues lovers, punks, rastas, straight edge ...only to see and hear Rysiek❤. Often in all clubs but also on big concerts like Rawa Blues.... I'll recommend to you song called " W zyciu piekne sa Tylko chwile". Remont, Warszawa. 1993. Title translation " Only moments are beautiful in life"
His son ,Sebastian finally took over father place, and what is incredibly important, he sound exactly the same. Listening to him singing with the old band it's like a return in time machine, which a matter of fact is the name of one of their songs "Wehikuł Czasu" My favorite song of Dżem is Outsider (org. "Autsajder")
He wasn't a beautiful person. He could sing well and was popular in one country, that's it. Drugs destroyed him like millions of people in the world. He wasn't different from them.
@@basbas768 he was using because he was very fragile- like most of the artists. He wrote so many beautiful songs… and right he was a junkie. He hurt his family so bad.
There are people whi to this day live Rysiek (the vocalist) and Dżem. You are right, this music lasts forever. I was lucky to be at Dżem's concert on 1987 or 88. Rysiek was already addicted to drugs. We waited for about an hour and a half before he finally entered the stage. But, even though you knew he was high, this was the second best concert of my life. What made him appealing to young people in Poland at the time was his emotional openness, his ability to voice what we all felt in the most unapologetic and direct way. " Whom the Gods love die young". The cruel truth holds its meaning here too.
Tak, to naprawdę piękny i głęboki utwór, ale jest bardzo ciężki. Słuchając go czuje ten ciężar, gorycz i nie wiem dlaczego jakieś poczucie słodkości, słodyczy ale bardzo lepkiej i gestej.
Ryszard's son, Sebastian, also sings, has his own band - CREE (like the name of an Indian tribe). Sebastian joins the Dżem band this year as a vocalist (information verified)...😊
YOU NEED TO SEE THE MOVIE " SKAZANY NA BLUSA-DOOMED FOR BLUES"- about Ryszard Ridl, he was addicted to drugs, everyone wanted to help him as everyone LOVED him, yet he died, breaking many hearts in Poland. AN AMAZING MOVIE!

Hi, thanks a lot for all your efforts. 'List do M' i(a letter to the mother) is an iconic song for us about loneliness. It fits very well to my own experience. If you wants more, please reply. Txs.
This is beautiful and the most liryc and powerfull ballad signed by the Polish Rock Man as Ryszard Rydel for his Mother. The best one in the Polish Rock history.
Please, grab a translated text and listen to it once more. This song is soooo deep. It has multiple meanings. With understanding the meaning of the text you will enjoy it more.
0:13 Read it simply as "jam". I haven't checked it but I'm almost sure the name comes from "jam session" (a musical, jazz or blues event). Rawa Blues is a blues festival held annually in Katowice, Poland.

He was very important, people just love him so much, for a few generations... he was born free, in Poland, which was still enslaved at that time... and he was as much of a hippie and bluesman as Jim Morison was for the West... He died young. ..
This band is so popular because of Rysiek. All his lyrics are about life and are very deep. (I guess most of it from his own life.) By the way, he's having quite a trip standing on that stage.
This singer ( Ryszard Riedel) died 30 years ago. He was one of the best Polish singers. He could sing Morrison's songs without any problems. However, to understand his work you need to know Polish. Currently the frotmen in this band is his son Sebastian, also an excellent Polish rocker.
There is one more thing to add, Rysiek was a drug addict and that just yells out of this song. This wasn't a small gig - Rawa blues festival is really great music event for blues fans. I was there in 1991, this was very touching and emotional experience for all of us.

It's a deep, dark night
I'm sitting in bed and she's sleeping next to me
And so he breathes calmly

No, it's just noise in my head

Because I'm sad because I'm alone
Fear chokes me
Loneliness is such a terrible fear
It embraces me, permeates me

That there is no God, there is no God, no
There is no God, no
Oh no
Only my house is peaceful
Where are you, and where am I, and I'm not there, no
Where I won't go back again, probably not

I'm sitting up in bed and she's sleeping beside me

Music is filtering through to me

Fear is choking me
Solitude is such a dreadful fear
Overwhelming me, pervading me

Calm is only my home
Where you remain and where I no longer am
Where I will probably never return

Ryszard Riedel was a true hippie of Polish rock scene, had drug problems and died soon after that performance, and the song is a letter to his mum from rehab, he was 100% natural and he would pour all his heart in his singing, there will never be any more like him in today's plastic music industry. There's a recording of him somewhere where the crowd is chanting "Rysiek, sing for us", and he comes out on the stage and says "I will always be singing for you, right till the end" . A true legend.
Rysiek Riedel was one of the greatest Polish musicians of all time unfortunately he was addicted to heroin and struggled for years what caused heart failure. He is greatly missed by many. That song is a letter to his mother is like confession about his suffering caused by loneliness and complete doubt in the existence of God. The enormous pain and endless despair can be heard most during the chorus, although the text does not directly refer to drugs, the text of the song is a kind of metaphor for Riedel's addiction to them. A truly fantastic performer and band with many hits a special “Naiwne Pytanie” or “Sen o Wiktorii” and if you like List do M there is another confession song by Dżem and Rysiek it’s called Modlitwa III. It's a pity that nowadays songs with lyrics as authentic as this are rarely written.
This is a fantastic description of the very complex meaning of the song. You just needed to remember the time the song was written. At the bottom line, it is a description of the generation of people who were not meant for the time that was happening around them, which is very significant for many musicians from the 80s and early 90s.
Modlitwa is the best song ever written. Although I love List to M. Modlitwa is on another level.
Rysiek Riedel niezapomniana śląska Legenda 🥰
Dżem's awesome. Rysiek's vocals and lyrics were iconic.
Ryszard jesteś wielki na zawsze!........
Dobrze że Sebastian Riedel syn Ryśka będzie teraz wokalistą Dżemu - nie mogę się doczekać ich występu
Piękne. Dzisiaj taka muza już nie jest popularyzowana.. to byli prawdziwi artyście, emocje, muzyka, zgranie, tekst, głębia.
Prawdziwa legenda polskiej muzyki. Wokalista porywał tłumy swoim śpiewem. Na koncertach miał przy sobie harmonijkę ustną. Sam nauczył się na niej grać, jak również na gitarze. Odszedł młodo, zniszczony nałogiem narkotykowym.Na nagrobku Riedla jest cytat:"W życiu piękne są tylko chwile" z utworu "Naiwne pytania". Jeden z moich ulubionych wokalistów. Dziękuję za reakcję i serdecznie pozdrawiam z Polski
No z tą gitarą to nieźle przykoloryzowałeś, ale co tam, czego się nie robi dla Ryśka :)
He was an addict and usually sang under the influence of drugs, but he sang better than most of the current "artists". However, his songs were about life... about what he lived and experienced in life. Songs such as "Wechikół czasu", "Czerwony jak cegła", „Harley mój”, „Jak malowany ptak”, „Sen o Victorii”, „Autsajder”, „Złoty paw”, "Whisky", or "List do M.", it's hard to choose which song is the best, because they are all wonderful works of musical art.
Wehikuł.
This song carries very powerful lyrics.
Pamiętam Ryśka, wspaniały i skromny człowiek. Mieszkał blisko mnie, osiedle obko mojego. Znalem też jego Sebastiana też bardzo skromny i fajny gość. Nie wiele teraz takich artystów w Polsce
Miałem szczęście poznać jego i Kaczmara. Niesamowite osobistości. Zupełnie inny poziom niż sławni, bo so sławni frajerzy obecnie.
Szacunek!
Szacunek dla obu. Tylko dlaczego mówicie to tutaj, pod tym typem, który w dobie internetu chce niby poznać polską muzykę, kulturę, a nie zadaje sobie minimum trudu, żeby wcześniej zrobić rozeznanie w internecie?
To jakiś pozer.
@@nemodurden a dlaczego nie?

You have to Firstly know frontman Ryszard life and problems to understand how emotional this song is. Then it is so powerful and sad
This band, song and Rysiek himselfe is icon in Poland even 23 years later. His musić is poetry and really sad story of a lonley man. ❤
What can I say ? It's wonderful that you've chosen Dżem in live version. I was at that concert. The vocalist and the band is an absolute legend here in Poland. No words can express what emotions people had when listening to their live performances. The band still plays and gathers at it's concerts three generations of fans (unfortunately without the original vocalist who died in 94). True and undisputed legend.
...ale teraz do składu zespołu dołączył syn Ryśka. Sebastian Riedel to obecnie wokalista Dżem.
najlepszy zespół ze śląska, słuchając oryginału łzy płyną za każdym razem. To muzyka i teksty tak bardzo przepełnione emocjami... @Mer Pol poczytaj historie człowieka i zespołu ...
I feel pain hearing all of Dżem songs, this man sacrificed everything for music, he was the music. His problem with strong addiction to drugs did not stopp him from being always for people, once he said "i will be singing to you always, no matter what". Despite of his problems, he was openly saying how terrible it is and nobody should follow his steps. Few generations love him and his music, it is one of a kind. The lyrics about pain, loneliness and freedom are really from the bottom of his heart
It's an iconic, legendary Polish band, very famous and known up till now. Especially with the band's charismatic frontman Ryszard Riedel, who died in 1994 (he was addicted to drugs). There was even a whole movie about him titled "Destined to blues" (Skazany na bluesa), with good actors, like Tomasz Kot playing the lead role. The band Dżem had more very famous, good songs.
Najpiękniejszy utwór świata ❤🔥
Kocham te piosenkę🥰
Me too, the best one 🤩
Mnie również i to z całego serca
The song calls Letter to M (Mother ), its about loneliness. Thank for reacvtion.
I po co to tłumaczysz temu pajacykowi? Udaje zainteresowanie polską kulturą, a nic nie robi, żeby ją poznać.
Tylko: podeślijcie, powiedzcie, wytłumaczcie.
Wszystko dla zasięgów.
It is about specific type of loneliness about depression : he has someone next to him but yet he is alone, he thinks about death and about God and thinks back about his mum....
It's a letter to his Mother:
Mama, I am writing a poem to you -
Maybe the last one, definitely the first one
It's night, it's dark, she is next to me
There is some music there, no it's something else
choruses: Being alone hurts so much, it's deep inside of me, it's all around
I think there is no God
Mama, I thought it was you that hurt me, but it was me - I hurt you
I'm sorry mama.....
The vocalist was fighting with depression and addiction, there actually is a movie about him, because he died after somewhat successful carrier. He has a wife and a son yet he couldn't get it together
I love that song ❤️
Dżem - Jam . this is the translation of the band's name. Ryszard Rydel is unfortunately no longer alive, he died in tragic circumstances. A film was made of it entitled "Skazany na Bluesa", because it is more Polish blues than rock. In this song, he sings about writing a letter to his mother and feeling the loneliness that he associates with hell. He doesn't use that word, but it can be understood that way. A very sad but beautiful song, but he also had positive songs, such as Sen o Wiktoria.- Sen o Viktorii .
"Dream about Victoria".
He doesn't assosiats with hell! He's in such a despair that makes him IMAGINE there is no God.
@@kitek1727 That's not what I meant. I wrote that the dream about Victoria is more optimistic.
A Letter to M is a song about the hell of loneliness.
It is worth adding that Sebastian, the son of Ryszard, currently sings in the band.
@@historiezesnu Wiem co miałeś na myśli, po prostu przetłumaczyłam tytuł drugiej piosenki ;)
Po co kłamać o jakiś "tragicznych okolicznosciach", jeśli zmarł na serce, a przyczyną były narkotyki, które wiele lat brał i żadna pomoc bliskich mu ludzi nie skutkowała. Kiedy zmarł, nie był już członkiem Dżemu, bo został usunięty z zespołu za niemożliwość współpracy z wiecznie naćpanym Riedlem. Robicie z niego boga, a był słabym, choć utalentowanym, człowiekiem. Miejmy nadzieję, że jego syn nie wszedł na tę zgubną drogę i będzie śpiewał z Dżemem trzeźwym.
Great talent and so sad stories with drugs. 💚 R.I.P.
I always said that if DZEM were an english-speaking band, they would be a group comparable to the greatest in the world, like Guns n Roses or others. The incredible talent of Rysiek Ridel, great musicians and amazing, deep lyrics. It's a pity that only Poles could enjoy this band...
Epickie wykonanie👌. Legenda! Klasyka polskiego rocka!❤
Hey, Mert Pol. If you're into Polish music, you should know that Dżem is simply Jam, which you know from the English language. So, please, pronounce it "JAM". That's what it was meant to be. And Jam, to be understood, must be... understood. You must know what Richard Riedel is singing about to be overwhelmed by emotions that the audience feels. This is a letter to his mother. This is so emotional, man! This music might not be the best technically, but it's the best meaning-wise! And you can't forget that he was a sick man. He was on drugs, he died because of drugs, and his band experienced a nightmare because of that. And we knew that, but we loved him. Please, respect that.
A letter to M (like Mother)
Mother, I’m writing a letter to you
Maybe the last one, the first one for sure
It’s the dead of night, the night is dark
I’m in my bed, and she’s by my side
And her breathing’s so calm
Some music is reaching me now
No, it’s a rustle I hear in my head
I sit there, going under my tears
I feel so sad, cause no one is here
The fear is choking me
The loneliness - such a terrible fear!
It’s gripping me, it’s piercing through me!
You know, mum, I have imagined in my head
That there is no God, there is no God, no.
There is no God, no.
Oh, no
It’s really calm, but there, in my home
You are present; you won’t find me there
There I won’t come back, I think I won’t
Mum, I love you, I love you so much!
I thought it was you who hurt me so much
But it was I who crushed who you are
So sad I got that so late
I got to know that too late, yeah
I got that too late
The loneliness - such a terrible fear!
It’s gripping me, it’s piercing through me!
You know, mum, I have imagined in my head
That there is no God, there is no God, no.
There is no God, no.
Oh, no
The loneliness - such a terrible fear!
It’s gripping me, it’s piercing through me!
You know, mum, I have imagined in my head
That there is no God, there is no God, no.
I have imagined in my head
That there is no God, there is no God, no.
There is no God, no.
Oh, no
Mother, I’m writing a letter to you
Maybe the last one, the first one for sure
Muzyka jest silniejsza niż dyktatura
If you do not know lyrics ............................ you can't feel this song !!! Wonderful song, one of the best Polish songs !
Lyrics understanding is the key.
Moja szkoła średnia była obok mieszkania Ryśka Riedla. Zapraszamy do Tychów.
I totally agree, we have the best rock in the world and in my opinion we can compare with the UK in this category. We had such masters as SBB, Budka Suflera, Niemen, Perfect, TSA, Amia, Kult and many, many others. Today it has all gone very wrong way, but we have such pearls as Smolik and Kev Fox and Coma.
I suggest you take a look at the Heavy Metal scene as well, we are great in this category too.
I grew up in the city "Tychy" where the band Dzem was formed. In my opinion one of the best Rock /Blues Band from that era. I am a musician myself and still heavily influenced by those guys , love their music......top shelf stuff . Their music brings back memories of my city Tychy, which I miss a lot !!!! You could also check Rysiek's son Sebastian Riedel ( Band name ...Cree ). Sebastian's voice reminds me a lot of his father... great band as well. Cheers !
Byłam wtedy dzieciakiem. Ale udało mi sie być na koncercie. Jak mii ojciec pozwolił.
Wspomnienia na zawsze... 👍👍💕
Text:
Mamo piszę do Ciebie wiersz
Może ostatni, na pewno pierwszy
Jest głęboka, ciemna noc
Siedzę w łóżku, a obok śpi ona
I tak spokojnie oddycha
Dobiega mnie jakaś muzyka
Nie, to tylko w mej głowie szum
Siedzę, tonę i tonę we łzach
Bo jest mi smutno, bo jestem sam
Dławi mnie strach
Samotność to taka straszna trwoga
Ogarnia mnie, przenika mnie
Wiesz mamo, wyobraziłem sobie, że
Że nie ma Boga, nie ma Boga, nie
Nie ma Boga, nie
O nie
Spokojny jest tylko mój dom
Gdzie Ty jesteś, a mnie, a mnie tam nie ma, nie
Gdzie nie wrócę już, chyba nie
Mamo, bardzo Cię kocham, kocham Cię
Myślałem, że Ty skrzywdziłaś mnie
A to ja, o ja skrzywdziłem Ciebie
Szkoda, że tak późno pojąłem to
I tak późno to, to zrozumiałem
Zrozumiałem to
Samotność to taka straszna trwoga
Ogarnia mnie, przenika mnie
Wiesz mamo, wyobraziłem sobie, że
Że nie ma Boga, nie ma Boga, nie
Samotność to taka straszna trwoga
Ogarnia mnie, przenika mnie
Wiesz mamo, wyobraziłem sobie, że
Że nie ma Boga, nie ma Boga, nie
Nie ma, nie!
Nie ma Boga, nie!
Nie ma Boga, nie!
Samotność to taka straszna trwoga
Ogarnia mnie, przenika mnie
Wiesz mamo, wyobraziłem sobie, że
Że nie ma Boga, nie ma Boga, nie
Wyobraziłem sobie, że
Nie ma Boga, nie
Nie
Mamo piszę do Ciebie wiersz
Może ostatni
Może ostatni
Król jest tylko jeden, niech spoczywa w pokoju!>333
Thats my favorite song Dżem ever.
my parents were 18 at the time, I am 29 years old right now, and this song is still live in polish culture
Autsider,Aleja róż,Paw ,Whiskey to są utwory jak i cała reszta piosenek Ryśka ,która nigdy nie pójdzie w zapomienie.W każdym stuleciu się odnajdą te słowa głębokie z w nętrza.
In August 2023 there was a Jam in Szczytna Śląska (I live next door). Despite the absence of Ryszard Riedel, the atmosphere of the concert was wonderful and hard to forget.
Rysiu Riedel ...the best of the best, legend
Did you listen "Wehikuł czasu" already? One of the best of Dżem especialy a guitar part.
Poruszający tekst..
I really like this band and this song, it has a great message
There is a very beautiful and quite accurately made movie "Skazany na bluesa" (rougly "Sentenced for Blues")
about the life of this artist, the singer of Dżem. I highly recommend watching it or even making a reaction to it. The story of Ryszard is a beautiful but tragic one and his persona and music inspires young generations up until this day, also being quite advocative of not using drugs.
top 10 polish song in history... maybe top 1...letter to mother...
there is a film about his life called Sentenced to the Blues, I recommend watching it
Now the lead singer of Dżem is the son of Sebastian Riedel, he has a somewhat similar voice to his dad
Jeszcze nie jest wokalistą Dżemu...
Będzie od 6 kwietnia...
@@Roberto-sw6jo to szczegóły
Wspaniałe teksty i muzyka. Wzrusza, pozwala wiele przemyśleć. Polecam Dżem Naiwne pytania...
It is about solitude. Knowing Rysiek's story, how he died, looking at his face, listening the lyrics - I have got wet eyes.
Hey mate, thanx for uploading this legendary band! Respect.
Lots of memories coming back....I was growing up listening to this music. Also was fortunate enough to witness and attend 'live' performance of Dzem along with Rysiek.
It was always extraordinary experience mate!!
In this clip, the man at first introduced the band, public were waiting for them...6hrs.
Song itself is a story of him writing a letter or rather poem to his mum.
Once again thanks for upload.
Cheers and one Love ❤️💛💚 from North Germany
Basically rip Rysiek Riedel was iconic person. "Jim Morrison of Poland". We were all going to their concerts, blues lovers, punks, rastas, straight edge ...only to see and hear Rysiek❤. Often in all clubs but also on big concerts like Rawa Blues....
I'll recommend to you song called " W zyciu piekne sa Tylko chwile". Remont, Warszawa. 1993. Title translation " Only moments are beautiful in life"
Ryszard wymiata! Szkoda, że zmarł gdy miałem 3 lata 😢
my French teacher once told me that when he came to Poland many years ago, he only listened to Dżem - because he felt it was real music from the heart
His son ,Sebastian finally took over father place, and what is incredibly important, he sound exactly the same. Listening to him singing with the old band it's like a return in time machine, which a matter of fact is the name of one of their songs "Wehikuł Czasu"
My favorite song of Dżem is Outsider (org. "Autsajder")
You should find a text- it’s so deep and touching. Rysiek was really beautiful but tragic person.
He wasn't a beautiful person. He could sing well and was popular in one country, that's it. Drugs destroyed him like millions of people in the world. He wasn't different from them.
@@basbas768 he was using because he was very fragile- like most of the artists. He wrote so many beautiful songs… and right he was a junkie. He hurt his family so bad.
This is one of the most important songs for me, it's beautiful.
The band's name means and pronounces "jam". Dżem in Polish.
when I was young I went to their concerts everywhere
There are people whi to this day live Rysiek (the vocalist) and Dżem. You are right, this music lasts forever. I was lucky to be at Dżem's concert on 1987 or 88. Rysiek was already addicted to drugs. We waited for about an hour and a half before he finally entered the stage. But, even though you knew he was high, this was the second best concert of my life. What made him appealing to young people in Poland at the time was his emotional openness, his ability to voice what we all felt in the most unapologetic and direct way.
" Whom the Gods love die young". The cruel truth holds its meaning here too.
This is one of the heaviest and deepest songs in the history of polish music. Musical heritage. Some may not understand.
Tak, to naprawdę piękny i głęboki utwór, ale jest bardzo ciężki. Słuchając go czuje ten ciężar, gorycz i nie wiem dlaczego jakieś poczucie słodkości, słodyczy ale bardzo lepkiej i gestej.
Ryszard's son, Sebastian, also sings, has his own band - CREE (like the name of an Indian tribe). Sebastian joins the Dżem band this year as a vocalist (information verified)...😊
I love as well:
Kombi "Black and white"
great Polish band fronbthe 80's.
Just got goosebumps immediately when Rysiek starts his beautiful song… what an epic guy!
What you need to know is, his son is a singer too!
Jest świetny film o Ryśku, " Skazany na blusa"
Piękny smutek I samotność. Przenika.
Shivers. I get shivers every time I listen to this song.
YOU NEED TO SEE THE MOVIE " SKAZANY NA BLUSA-DOOMED FOR BLUES"- about Ryszard Ridl, he was addicted to drugs, everyone wanted to help him as everyone LOVED him, yet he died, breaking many hearts in Poland. AN AMAZING MOVIE!
Ogień ❤
He is singing that he imagined that there's no god. And he is frightened.
He says that to her mom, that is no more
Ryszard Riedel the best voice on the world. I love almost everyone songs crew Dżem.
Mother, I'm writing the poem to You,
Maybe the last one, but I'm sure it's the first
It is a deep, dark night
I'm sitting in my bed and she's sleeping by my side
And she is breathing so steadily
I'm hearing some music
No, it is only in my head
I'm sitting, I'm drowning and I'm drowning in tears
'Cause I'm so sad, 'cause I'm alone
The fear is choking me
Solitude is such a dreadful fear
It's seizing me , it's piercing me
You know, mother, I imagined
That there is no God, no God, no
Only my home is calm now
Where you are , but I'm not
Where I won't ever come back, I think
Mother, I love You so much, I love You
I thought that You had hurt me
But it was me that hurt You
It's too bad that I understood it so late
So late, I understood it so late
Solitude is such a dreadful fear
It's seizing me , it's piercing me
You know, mother, I imagined
That there is no God, no God, no
Solitude is such a dreadful fear
It's seizing me , it's piercing me
You know, mother, I imagined
That there is no God, no God, no
Tekst pochodzi z www.tekstowo.pl/piosenka,dzem,list_do_m.html
He was a blues legend. Died of herion OD in 1994.
Dig into Dzem. Its unbelievable how authentic their music is.
Mommy, I’m writing for you some verses
Maybe for the last time, for sure for the first time
It’s a deep, dark night,
I sit on the bed and she sleeps beside me
And she breathes so quietly
Some music reaches my ears
No, it's just a noise in my head
I sit and I drown and drown in tears,
Because I'm sad, because I'm alone
The fear strangles me
Solitude means such a terrible fear
That overwhelms me, penetrates me through
You know, Mommy, I imagined that
That God didn’t exist, didn’t, didn’t!
God didn’t exist, didn't!
Serene is only my home,
Where you are now, but I'm no longer there
Where, I’m afraid, I won’t return, most probably
Mommy, I love you so much, I love you!
I thought you hurt me,
But it’s me who hurt you
It’s a shame that I realized it so late
that I understood it too late
I understood it
Solitude means such a terrible fear
That overwhelms me, penetrates me through
You know, Mommy, I imagined that
That God didn’t exist, didn’t, didn’t!
Didn’t exist, didn't...
God didn’t exist, didn’t, didn’t!
Didn’t exist, didn’t...
God didn’t exist, didn’t...
Mommy, I’m writing to you some verses
Maybe for the last time...
Maybe for the last time...
I don’t know, I’m not sure...
Text is just increcible. Gives you shiver.
Exactly. You must see film "Skazany na bluesa" !!! You will be remember this artists... this film !! And THIS MUSIC ❤ Believe me THE REST OF YOU'R LIFE.
In Polen everyone's know this artist and music REGARDLESS OF GENERATION!❤
Best song ever only Metalica matches this.
Dziękuję, super
Hi, thanks a lot for all your efforts. 'List do M' i(a letter to the mother) is an iconic song for us about loneliness. It fits very well to my own experience. If you wants more, please reply. Txs.
Marek Raduli,posłuchaj go jak gra na gitarze,absolutny geniusz swojego rzemiosła.....
Perfection you got this right mate! and yes that powerful solo of Jerzy Styczyński on guitar , you have to see them live !
This is beautiful and the most liryc and powerfull ballad signed by the Polish Rock Man as Ryszard Rydel for his Mother.
The best one in the Polish Rock history.
Please, grab a translated text and listen to it once more. This song is soooo deep. It has multiple meanings. With understanding the meaning of the text you will enjoy it more.
And listen more his songs. He was genius. His interpretations are amazing.
0:13 Read it simply as "jam". I haven't checked it but I'm almost sure the name comes from "jam session" (a musical, jazz or blues event).
Rawa Blues is a blues festival held annually in Katowice, Poland.
This is one of the saddest songs ever right next to 7th Wonder "One last goodbye" thought they are decades apart. :(
Try whisky, my wife.....his best song. WHISKY MOJA ŻONO. 😊
Wehikuł czasu.
Mom, I’m writing you a poem
Maybe the last one, definitely the first
It’s a deep, dark night
I’m sitting in bed, and she sleeps beside me
And breathes so calmly
Some music reaches me
No, it’s just noise in my head
I sit, I drown, and drown in tears
Because I’m sad, because I’m alone
Fear chokes me
Loneliness is such a terrible dread
It overtakes me, permeates me
You know, Mom, I imagined that
There is no God, there’s no God, no
There’s no God, no
Oh no
Only my home is calm
Where you are, and me, and I’m not there, no
Where I won’t return, probably not
Mom, I love you very much, I love you
I thought that you hurt me
But it was I, oh I hurt you
It’s a pity I realized it so late
And understood it so late
I understood it
Loneliness is such a terrible dread
It overtakes me, permeates me
You know, Mom, I imagined that
There is no God, there’s no God, no
Loneliness is such a terrible dread
It overtakes me, permeates me
You know, Mom, I imagined that
There is no God, there’s no God, no
There isn’t, no!
There’s no God, no!
There’s no God, no!
Loneliness is such a terrible dread
It overtakes me, permeates me
You know, Mom, I imagined that
There is no God, there’s no God, no
I imagined that
There’s no God, no
No
Mom, I’m writing you a poem
Maybe the last one
Maybe the last one
Yes, the band is called Dżem. And the vocalist is Ryszard Riedel. For more information, please refer to Wikipedia. 😊
Dżem Forever Rysiek always in my mind...I grow up with this music till today deep in my heart. Recomended for You also TSA - 51
All the best from Montreal.
He was very important, people just love him so much, for a few generations... he was born free, in Poland, which was still enslaved at that time... and he was as much of a hippie and bluesman as Jim Morison was for the West... He died young. ..
:Dzem; legenda.
This band is so popular because of Rysiek. All his lyrics are about life and are very deep. (I guess most of it from his own life.) By the way, he's having quite a trip standing on that stage.
I recommend the movie "Skazany na bluesa" about this singer. I saw that it's available on Netflix, but I'm not sure if it's translated.
This singer ( Ryszard Riedel) died 30 years ago. He was one of the best Polish singers. He could sing Morrison's songs without any problems. However, to understand his work you need to know Polish. Currently the frotmen in this band is his son Sebastian, also an excellent Polish rocker.
There is one more thing to add, Rysiek was a drug addict and that just yells out of this song. This wasn't a small gig - Rawa blues festival is really great music event for blues fans. I was there in 1991, this was very touching and emotional experience for all of us.
Sztos!
