I was invited to play the piano at one of my friends synagogues. Their German and Jewish and most of them spoke German and very little English so I decided to play this song for them. They let me finish, however, I was told to never return.
Fun fact for who does not understand German: this song is about the fact that "Erika" is not only a common name for women in Germany, but also how a plant is called. It's a love song, and in the whole lyrics you can't find a single word about war or politics
@khaleb4614yes it's not a nazisism song But nazi used it They created a song that was sound peaceful to convince people that they good and people accepted them

"Denkst du auch an deine kleine Braut?" At home a little girl is crying for you In der Heimat weint um dich ein Mägdelein And that means Und das heißt Erika Erika

I learnt to play this specifically to teach my mate, so he could impress his girlfriend, who happens to be German. And whose name happens to be Erika. Funny thing coincidences.
My german friend told me about a traditional dance that goes with the aong, and it's very easy, maybe too easy, as you only use your hand, which you have to slowly levitate into the air... Lovely local tradition I guess.
I played this in front of my grandfather and he started saying weird stuff like 'Heil mein furher' I didn't get that but he tried to high five me but his whole arm was outstretched for some reason smh
Wow we might be cousins he did the same thing when i played it. He said something like 'heil hilter' whoever this 'hilter' is, but he also had his arm out...
The song plays as the last moments of my country are happening I look back at the Reichstag, my confidence grows but diminishes as I hear the rattle and marching of soldiers approaching, I think about the flowers, the Flowers of my Germania the song slows downs as a tank appears out of the fog of death, blood, sweat and toil. I think to myself that surrender is better than dying to the wrath of the enemy, I throw my helmet on the floor and pull out my white flag for surrender as I fall to my knees. My hands up in the air waving in the rhythm of ERIKA. I look behind me and I see the messenger he says it’s over, he drops the Swastika flag and stomps on it saying Goderverdammt why! He tells my that mean fuhrer died, Germania is no more, I look over my shoulder the Reichstag is half of what it used to be. Two soldiers in threadbare uniforms come over and try to arrest me, I fall over and pull out my Flamenwerfer the only weapon I have left and point it to my head, I pulled the trigger, I drift to my death with ERIKA! sung in distortion being the last word I hear, (I thought this version of Erika was good for a sad/creepy version)

In terms of its meaning, it's pretty much a German equivalent to Katyusha.

This music is straight gas although it's hard to play it with one hand

Beautiful song about flower
"My argentine great grandpa loved it so much he even raised his hand to repect it😀"
.The song “Erika” was written before 1933 so it is not considered
It's a joke since it's really rhymy for Germany in 1939-1945
"you know what fuck it"
i love it keep it up man! its not too hard!
I just failed art school
This music is making me calm
I learned piano just to play this
Can i get sheet music ?

I can't believe the music university denied me entry... I think I'll resort to this...
0:00 Good opening~
0:10 ah f-
the fact this song is about a girl. For the longest time I thought it really meant something else. I guess I learn something every day.
Brings back good memories
Very good my friend.🤚😁
Where’s the sheet music for this specific one?
Today in school a guy just got up and played it in the classroom piano
simplemente ancantador y maravilloso
Danke, es ist sehr gut.
Sounds so jolly and cheerful, until you remember who used this

When you are reject from the piano school:

"ruined" idk about that

I showed it my friends... now their are on the way to Moscow
I put this song to my german friend. Now he is a part of the SS
