Yep thats probably one that only Germans will understand. Heino, a germansinger of Schlager and Volksmusik (basically popmusic for old people) released a new album in which he coverd songs by german Rockbands in his own distictive style. Its a novelty record and sort of a retribution, since the german rock scene had made fun of him for decades (the title of the record, "Mit freundlichen Grüßen"- "With kind regards", makes that pretty clear). What suprised me is that two of the bands, Rammstein and Die Ärzte, fell for the trollbait and got really pissed that Heino ridiculed their songs in his own way (which he can do due to a loophole in german copyright law). I´m actually a bit dissapointed in Die Ärzte, I mean they are silly pranksters themselves, you would expect them to have a little more humour about that. Meanwhile both Rammstein and Die Ärzte have pedaled back, sincethey noticed that it would make them look bad th get all pissy, but the damage might be done now.
I´m glad happy how the Heino Trollface worked out, his wrinkly old albino face is perfect for this. On the right side are Farin Ulaub and Bela B from Die Ärzte in the front and Till Lindemann from Rammstein in the back, he really is this huge, I once saw him in RL, from a distance thou, but he made everybody else look tiny).

ich persönlich bin seit kleinauf ärztefan, es geht darum das eltern versuchen ihrem nachwuchs ihren eigenen stempel aufdrücken wollen, ihnen nicht die freiheiten lassen wollen selbst zu entscheiden, so wie deren eltern es mit ihnen getan haben, udn die generation davor udn davor, so das alles in festgetretenen spuren fährt und damit so läuft das man das tut was man schon immer gemacht hat weil man es schon imemr getan wurde. viel der ärzte lieder haben solche hintergründe. Farin Urlaub (Jan Ulrich Max Vetter) war ein typisches spießerkind das aus eben diesen gründen die band damals mit Dirk Felsenheimer und Hans Runge die band um NICHT so zu enden wie ihre eltern
Ich weiß das alles, bin selber von klein auf DÄ-fan. Hab als Kind Moskito gekuckt und fand die Songs so klasse. Mit 14 hatte ich meine erste Platte (Planet Punk) und Ich hab die Biographie dreimal gelesen. Versuch also bitte nicht mich zu auszu-die-ärzte-fannen. Deswegen weiß ich dass man die Texte ernst nehmen kann, aber auch nicht zuviel reininterpretieren sollte. Siehe "Geschwisterliebe", Farin hat den Song damals geschrieben weil er die verschiedenen Deklinationen von "flachlegen" lustig fand, nicht weil er Inzest promoten wollte.
Abschließend will ich noch anmerken, Votze wird mit V geschrieben!

What I meant was, this Heino person must be notorious in what he's doing, moreso than the Gangdam style guy with the way he was so suggestive. I mean, taking other people's music for yourself is worse than making yourself look like enough of a jock in your own music video.
Well, he is quite notorious here, its either you love him or you hate him (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heino). Most rock- and popmusicians here in Germany despise him for his style of music and what it represents, thats why they made fun of him for decades. This record is his revenge for all of the years of ridicule. He is able to do that because of a loophople in german copiright law that allows that provided merely that lyrics and music remain unchanged and a commission to the GEMA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesellschaft_f%C3%BCr_musikalische_Auff%C3%BChrungs-_und_mechanische_Vervielf%C3%A4ltigungsrechte) is paid.
I´m definitively not a fan of him but I have to say kudos to that,
