Well, well, well... "Hey, it is so good that I have the best guitar in the world. Much better than Mr. Y and so better than HIDR. I've learnt my German with records by Die Toten Hosen [The Dead Trousers] and Nena. The best record is Ice Cream ? ? by Die Toten Hosen. Listen to it and you can hear a pin drop! Same as the first five minutes in Tubular Bells 2!!!! Ha!" "Dedicated to HIDR and Mr. Y. Excuse me for the crappy writing but I've forgotten many words". Well, Ray - how was that? By the way, AFAIR "first" is "erst" in German, and all the nouns have capitals. But, as you said, you've forgotten some of it... Also, who are Mr. Y and HIDR?   -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ray Group: Members Posts: 857 Joined: Jan. 2000 Posted: Oct. 07 2008, 17:04 Ha!  Yes - I forgotten alot - but if you dont know the group the Toten Hosen then you are missing out in some fun songs by a german punk rock group who are a lot of fun.   Nena!  Everyone knows  - don't they? Mr Y is the same as Mr Y is in all the other posts.    HIDR - well that was really the only difficult bit to translate.  But I think he will know who he is.   I'll leave you to work it out - which i'm sure you will eventually. It is along time since I spoke much German. Ray   -------------- Looking out over the harbour in Peel....... Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Oct. 08 2008, 09:28 I do know Die Toten Hosen - what prevents me from really liking them is the language. I have to really think about what they're singing about to understand it. And when you start to think about music, you stop enjoying it. About Mr. Y and HIDR... this are my guesses... Y = Yanouch HIDR = Herr in den Regen = Man in the Rain. Am I right? -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Hey thanks.  amasing what you learn on tubnet.   I've been listening since 1986 and didn't know that.   But they are funny - I like the beethoven track that starts with the clasical bit then goes into screaming guitars..... And the one that starts - Daaad,  What's Punk Rock?   Which from what i remember is mostly in english.   But any way - off topic.  A bit.

(Couldn't think of an adequate English slang equivalent...) I didn't know that either - indeed I do know that hosen are trousers only because Mr. Dkaycom told me! I think that "sweet Fanny Adams" or "sweet FA" means the same thing in English. @ Ray, what's the title of that song? I shall check it out. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Oct. 08 2008, 16:07 @ Holger - I'm not sure I understood you, but "sweet FA" is not a band name. It's an English slang expression meaning "nothing at all" - FA (Fanny Adams) being an euphemism for "f*ck-all". -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

I just thought that, like "Die Toten Hosen", it would make a nice band name.   Back to top
