And came across this video:

(no warnings)

I think I was meant to laugh at it, but I'm strangely mesmerized and cannot stop watching. Does it have the same effect on anyone else?

That video is freakin' awesome. I want the soundtrack. :p

It becomes even more pathetic when you realize they are lip synching.

Also, that guy in green looks like the "off-blast" guy.

That's... interesting...

But, I must agree, it is rather mesmerizing... I love the song for some reason.... no clue what it's supposed to be about... but I love it.

Anyone else think the girl in red in the video looks strangely familiar? I swear I've seen her in a movie or TV Show or something before.

I need the plugin and i'm to lazy.

Saw it a while ago. Love it.

What an enthusiastic bald man.

<3!

This has been a running gag on YTMND for some time.

FCTuner, yea when I saw the girl I instantly paid more attention because she looked familiar. The red and white guy has some rad dance moves.

I'm still enjoying it. The music's catchy! I thought about buying their CD just for that song.

This would be awesome to blast in the car.

The music is awesome.

I just noticed that the guy in green reminds me a lot of the 'Wizard' from The Wizard of Oz...

Oh, and I found the lyrics.... For anyone at all interested...

If only I could find the song... or even a CD... as long as the CD weren't more than 5 bux anyway lol...

It's darn catchy... it's almsot driving me nuts... but I saved that Video... sadly, given the lyrics I found, it seems like that's not the whole song.

This


Movie


Rules.

I WANT THE SOUNDTRACK TOO! HAHAHAHAHA!

Catchy little tune.

I found the soundtrack on Euro amazon.

The girl in red reminds me of one of the girls in ABBA.

Funny, they remind me of Abba gone communist.

There's a Punk Chartbusters Volume 3 CD that has a remake of the song on it.. Best Buy Has it... at least their site does...

What... the...

Oh my god! Wohlstandskninder! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

Translation: Took me 30 minutes to type. I left things pretty much to what I thought it would be, but I will edit with corrections (as I know there are errors in some spots). I would appreciate it if any fellow German-speaking Massassians would point out some errors and explain to me why it's wrong, as that is how I learn.

Moskau

* = Places in Moscow
(?) = I know is wrong.
([ and ]) = Parts that were added in the clip, but were not in the orignal lyrics.

NOTE: To those ignorant of German history, I suggest you read up on the history of East Germany...as this is obviously where these guys are from.

I found it, but I think it's illegal to give it to you guys.

Moskau? Is this Rammstein?

[edit: ahaha, I just watched it, nevermind. Rammstein has a similarly titled song. ]

It's a great translation, but I see what you mean with the parts that were added in to the movie which weren't in the lyrics. Actually, I watched the movie and the lyrics aren't anywhere close to what they sing. Here is what they actually sing, from where the clip begins to where it ends:

The woman in red looks like Bette Midler

Freaky video.

I don't think she looks like Bette, but what I found the most familiar is that smile she does. I know it from somewhere, I swear.

She looks like every famous blonde woman ever.

Hmmmm...

Hmmmm...

I already tanslated all of that. :\

LESS TALK, MORE...TALK.

But no more translations, right?

/me sighs.

More pictures to who you think people look like in that video.

I...know... :/

I was saying, you put the 'clip begins' and 'clip ends' tags in the wrong places.

Auggggghh!?!?!? How can you people like this stuff?! This kind of music died for a reason!

<.< >.>

...but if you like that, you'll like this. I asctually remixed this song and played it at my birthday party.

I'm still watching it.

No.

And Wolfy, he looks like Inigo from "The Princess Bride" to me. But that's a good relation.

Yes, he does look like Zlad, doesn't he... And vaguely like Inigo...

I looked it over, and the clip has one or two more lines I left out (that's not in the original lyrics) at the end of the clip. I'll add them.

Okay, I might peice together some information here and there to form reasons for this clip. Bare with me, and there is probally no doubt that this information is probally wrong. So I advise you to reasearch this yourself if you want.


Anyways, you remeber WWII, right? Well, Russia had control of Eastern Germany after WWII was over, and had it's control for quite some time. There were even special events that happened here, such as the Berlin Air Lift and the fall of the Berlin Wall, etc. This means that before the fall of the wall (Which was '93 maybe? Earlier?) that the Germans had a lot of Russian influences. I remeber my teacher telling me that when he went there in the 70's, that all the books you find in a book store on the first level were all in Russian. On the second level, there were the German written books.) Now if you went to Eastern Germany back before the Wall was torn down, you basically found the DDR (Deutsche
Demokratische Republik/German Democratic Republic) to be very loyalist. Flags wove everywhere, boyscouts were trained to sing songs about Eastern Germany, and pride was on every street corner. I recommend watching the movie, "Goodbye Lenin". It's in German, but the DVD version has subtitles. This movie totally relates to that.

Now that still dosn't explain why these guys are wearing silk and chinese-looking clothing. Well as you may know before Peter the Great "Eroupeanized" Russia, that basically everyone wore Chinese silk worn clothes, and those hats. Oh, and a lot of people had those hair styles (One guy was bald, one guy had a beard, the main guy had that curled hair). How this influence got into a play years after wearing silk and such was banned, I dunno.

If you are familiar with what I am talking about, please correct me again.
