Franek Kimono
Franek Kimono is a fictional character which was meant to be a polish version of Bruce Lee. It was created by Andrzej Korzyński, while Piotr Fronczewski (famous actor) played the role of martial-arts master from Poland.[…]Franek Kimono, despite being sort of a musical joke, made a huge succes in Poland. Great dose of humour and absurd present in most of Franek’s songs lifted them to almost cult status.
I’m not sure what prompted me to start listening to music tagged “polish” on last.fm, but clearly it was a wise decision.
