Here’s an appropriate tune for all the nuclear news whether it be Russia or China spying on US nuclear facilities. By the way, 99 Luftballons is an anti-nuke protest song.
TOPICS: Music/Entertainment

She was beautiful with a magical voice, so we didn’t care what the song was really about.

The translated German lyrics and the English lyrics are very different.

They needed a translation AND a rhyme scheme.

Wonder how a Rammstein cover of it would sound.

Yeah, I know. Direct English translation of the original German lyrics didn't rhyme.
I just thought the differences between the two were interesting.

At the time I remarked about getting a peace lesson from the children of the perpetrators of the Holocaust.

Not just the lyrics, the german version has the singer’s voice strong and confident, the English version is deliberately breathy and timid. Also, the video is much different (kind of laughably so, but there were clear decisions made to up the number of explosions and prominent hip wiggling).
