Eugeniusz Bodo & Ork. Syrena Rekord dir. by Henryk Wars - Juz taki jestem zimny drań (Such a Cool Rascal I Am!) Fokstrot z filmu "Pieśniarz Warszawy" (from a film comedy "The Singer of Warsaw") Muz. Henryk Wars, Tekst: Starski, Nel, Syrena-Electro 1934 (Poland)

NOTE: This jaunty and jazzy foxtrot unquestionably belongs to Top Ten of Polish song history, together with such immortals as Jerzy Petersburski's tangoes: Oh Donna Clara (Tango Milonga) and It's The Last Sunday (To ostatnia niedziela) or Hanka Ordonówna's English waltz "Miłość ci wszystko wybaczy" (Love Will Forgive You Everything) also composed by Henryk Wars. 

Eugeniusz Bodo - Polish actor and singer  who in prewar Poland perhaps was the most popular comedy performer in a light and romantic genre a la Maurice Chevalier , has received a fair tribute in You Tube from the new generation of Polish fans in form of numerous uploadings of his songs as well as the fragments of his film comedies. However, to those interested in his life as well as his unbelievably tragic death from hunger in a Russian work camp, I recommend my note in the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lX3tt_iadms

I also recommend to you absolutely fabulous performance of the tango "Ja mam czas, ja poczekam" (I Have Time, I Shall Wait) by Eugeniusz Bodo with the breathtaking accompaniament of Henryk Gold's Orchestra http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zR4GRAFsqmw as well as the flip side of "Juz taki jestem zimny drań" which is a Russian foxtrot "Baby, ach te baby" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6IBi79iBRQ
