Her adventure with music began with the play Muzyka ze słowami (Music With Words) where her acting was accompanied with music composed by Polish independent artist Wojciech Waglewski. In 2005 this resulted in Miasto Mania, with music by Wojciech Waglewski and his sons Fisz and Emade (also well known for their ambient hip hop albums). What had been meant to be an underground project became an absolute hit of the season that everyone talked about. Something new, awaited & very appreciated in the Polish scene. Music up to date with the newest trends yet preserving the greatest rock traditions combined with poetic lyrics. Anyway, the poetry involved was of a special kind, nothing that mainstream would decide to be seen by masses. It was vulgar yet subtle, which differed from anything you would expect to hear anywhere. All this playing with words became Maria's characteristic.
The album itself is supposed to tell a story about a city girl living on a rooftop of a skyscraper. She's watching people and planes go by and you can hear all the city sounds on the record.
The only question left is: will this project be continued as it was meant to be a one time thing?
Ćmy
Maria Peszek Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nocne miasta ćmy
Ty i ja
Dziwne miasta dwa
Lubię Cię
Bo nigdy nie zostajesz na dłużej
Niż na jedną noc
Gdy Cię nie ma
Czarny nocy kot
Ja i Ty
Nocne miasta ćmy
Ty i ja
Dziwne miasta dwa
Niczego więcej nie chcę
Niczego nie muszę
Niczego już nie szukam
Śpijmy przytuleni jak dwoje szczeniąt
Którym zdechła suka
Ja i Ty
Nocne miasta ćmy
Ty i ja
Dziwne miasta dwa
Niczego więcej nie chcę
Niczego nie muszę
Niczego już nie szukam
Śpijmy przytuleni jak dwoje szczeniąt
Którym zdechła suka
The lyrics to Maria Peszek's song "Ćmy" depict a relationship that is fleeting and transitory. The two individuals, represented by "Ja i Ty" (me and you), are drawn to the allure and mystery of the "nocne miasta ćmy" (night cities of moths), where strange and unusual things happen.
The singer professes her love for this person, but acknowledges that they never stay for long, disappearing as quickly as they appeared. In the absence of this person, the singer is left with a sense of emptiness that is replaced by the "Czarny nocy kot" (black night cat).
The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer doesn't want or need anything more than this person and the transient moments they share. The final line of the song, "Śpijmy przytuleni jak dwoje szczeniąt/Którym zdechła suka" (Let's sleep cuddled up like two puppies whose mother has died), adds a layer of fragility to this already fleeting relationship, emphasizing that these moments of connection and intimacy are all they have.
Overall, the song speaks to the human desire for connection and intimacy, even if it is only temporary. The reference to the night cities of moths and the black night cat adds a sense of mystery and darkness to the lyrics, highlighting the fleeting and fleeting nature of these connections.

Kupilem plyte i powiem tyle -to wielka refleksja o tym co sie teraz dzieje w Polsce .O konflikcie polsko-polskim ,ktory trwa od lat .Polacy zostali podzieleni na gorsze i lepsze sorty .Szkoda ,myslalem ze po odzyskaniu wolnosci Polska stanie sie lepszym panstwem ,a jest tragicznie.
