For the third week of May 2017 - we chose a moving video uploaded by Dr.240252 on May 8 - 2017 - titled "Polish Tango - Chor Czejanda - (Believe Me - Warsaw)-1948".
The artwork shows how the magnificent, thriving in every way - city of Warsaw - was almost totally annihilated from the face of the Earth by the diabolical German forces during the Second World War - 1939 - 1945. It should be a lesson for mankind - what human beings do to each other when they are at war.
Thank God the city became almost totally rebuilt to its original beauty and splendor - a project which took several years after the Second World War was over in 1945. If you read the viewers' comment - including some made by the editor of this column - you will find out in an easy way - big chunks of important history.
The musical selection sounds very good since Chor Czejanda (Czejanda's Male Choir) made a lot of really good and popular recordings for many years - mainly in the nineteen forties, fifites and even some in the sixties - before the huge wave of "rock and roll" swept many excellent performers "under the rug" so most of them they had to disappear from the limelight - as if immersed in an artistic quick sands of some awful kind.
At any rate - we hope that everybody will have a very good third week of May 2017 which continues cold but sunny in Chicago. We like it that way and do not complain a bit - since the cool weather beats - at least - two heads - some early heat waves during some springs in Chicago.
As always - do not forget to check our YT channel tango3721 and - click here next Thurs. May 18 or Fri. May 19-2017 - to check out our choice of YT Video of the Week for next week.
