I know he isn’t German, but close enough.

    Oh and good work on the 99 luft balons. It is better in the original German, rather than the cheesy English translation.

    You always have a German invasion here — you have me!!!!!! OK, OK – I have the American citizenship since last year, but still. . .

    While Falco was from Austria – he was still awesome. He died much too young.

    99 Luftballons was a big hit in Germany – and the german lyrics are MUCH better. The translation just didn’t quite get the message across the same way.

    Wasn’t 99 Luftballoons a strong anti-nuke song. IIRC, the German version was a hit here.

    I think it was a hit in 1984-85 timeframe. I remember having to sing tis ditty in my college German class. I remembered that the original German version was more powerful than the English translation that was also playing on the radio/MTV at the same time. I might have to drag out some of my class notes to read the original wording again.

    I am glad that this song was resurrected to remind us what might happen if wackjob rulers misuse nuclear power.
