Pidżama Porno disbanded in 1990, but reactivated 4 years later. The demo album "Futurista" was officialy released under the same name, but it also contained six songs from "Ulice jak stygmaty". In 1997 "Złodzieje zapalniczek" was released, "Styropian" followed in 1998. Then, the "Ulice jak stygmaty" demo album was recorded again, and released as "Ulice jak stygmaty - absolutne rarytasy". The next album, "Marchef w butonierce", arguably their most popular one, saw the light in 2001.
As for now, their newest album is "Bułgarskie Centrum", which appeared in 2004. It is slightly different from the former releases, but is still widely appreciated among fans.
Currently, the band consist of the following artists:
Krzysztof "Grabaż" Grabowski - vocals, lyrics, composition
Andrzej Kozakiewicz - vocals, guitar
Sławek Mizerkiewicz - guitar
Julian Piotrowiak - bass guitar
Rafał Piotrowiak - percussion
Some members of the band also form Grabaż i Strachy na Lachy.
The band officially disbanded after their 20-th anniversary concert, which was held in Poznań on 8th December 2007.
News from Tiananmen
Pidżama Porno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I try to look at chinese peradise
I hear the news from Tiananmen
They do not know that step by step
They're aproaching the mouth of lion
Everything is gonna collapse
It is not going to work
It's all right
It's all right
Johny is rebel for one day
Mary want to stay with her friend
They're driming about the freedom
Sleeping in the West Berlin
The song "News from Tiananmen" by Pidżama Porno is a commentary on the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests in China, where thousands of pro-democracy protesters gathered in Beijing to demand greater political freedom and human rights. The lyrics speak of the confusion and disillusionment felt by individuals all over the world who are trying to make sense of these events. The first lines of the song, "Whatever happened to my mind, I try to look at chinese paradise," refer to the overwhelming sense of disbelief and shock that many people felt as they watched the events on their television screens. The lyrics then go on to describe the news from Tiananmen, with the haunting chorus repeating the phrase "It's all right," perhaps a reference to the way in which individuals often try to reassure themselves that everything will be okay in the face of overwhelming tragedy.
The song also touches on the themes of rebellion and freedom, with lyrics such as "Johnny is rebel for one day" and "Mary wants to stay with her friend / They're dreaming about the freedom / Sleeping in the West Berlin." These words suggest that despite the oppressive forces at work in the world, people still have the ability to imagine and hope for something better. Overall, "News from Tiananmen" is a powerful indictment of the forces that seek to suppress the human spirit, and a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always room for hope and resistance.
