Music video description

The song "Such Tango" comes from the 1997 album "Nothing Hurts Like Life." Originally, the song "One Time" was to be the single promoting the album, but "Such Tango" gained more popularity. It was hailed as the biggest hit of post-war Poland. It was this song that elevated Budka Suflera to the very top. It was on the first place of the "30 tons" list for several months, and also triumphed on the "Trójka" list. In 1997 the song was awarded the Fryderyk in the hit of the year category. On August 9, 2009, it won the public vote and became the hit of the 35th anniversary of the band Budka Suflera during a concert at the Forest Opera in Sopot. As a curiosity I will mention that in 2001 there was a cover of the song Budka Suflera - Taka Tango performed by the Taiwanese band Power Station.

PS sorry for the sound quality, but I could not find anything better....

Lyrics of the song Budka Suflera - Taka Tango:
In a hall big and shining
Just like the night Buenos Aires
Which does not want to sleep
The orchestra tunes its instruments
Gives the sign and is about to start
A new tango to play
We sit side by side indifferent
Towards each other like tourists
Tapping out the rhythm
There will be no tango between us
Even if a miracle comes true
Nothing will help

Though sharp notes flow
The blood burns in our veins
None of us will ever dance
Will never get up

For it takes two to tango
Matching bodies and willing hearts
For it takes two to tango
That's how complex this world is

It will flood Buenos Aires at last
A night as thick as ink
And when the dawn comes
What was in our hearts once
Someday like a shining diamond
All will lose its shine

And though they will play again
God only knows
Never together in this hall
We will never meet

Because it takes two to tango
Matching bodies and willing hearts
Because it takes two to tango
That's how complex this world is
