As a german, i can tell. I like this Anthem more than the one were using atm.
Its such a good Anthem and whats happend and where we wanna go.
Hope we change it some day
Same here.
for real :D
@@tonigallasch8410 yeah, it describes our county way better then the one we're using atm.
East Germany? More like Beast Germany
As a West German i even agree, east german anthem capture more spirit
I come from the former GDR and I have to say our anthem was better than the one we have now
The current Bundesreich anthem is contoversial because "Uber Alles" song was used by Hitler.
Ich bevorzuge das alte "Heil dir im Siegerkranz". 👑😉😇😂

We only use the third verse. Someone once said "Germany lost a verse for every world war it lost." 😉☺
I like this anthem way more for a united Germany. It has an original melody and speaks of rising from the ashes of war and reuniting!
The composer intended this to be the anthem of a united Germany, not realizing in late 1945 that the partitioning of Germany would last 45 years, rather than a matter of months as many at the time expected...
@@flyingfiddler90q oh! Interesting. It would definitely fit better
@@flyingfiddler90q oh! Interesting. It would definitely fit better
The melody is from 'Goodbye Jonney'
@@rickjensen2717 not really, it’s only the first 8 ovtaves
You are 100% right, the current German anthem is an anachronism. The DDR represents the spirit of the German people way better. So much hope, so much passion. The stanza about the Volkesfeind may need some reworking (although the NSDAP or even the SED could be considered as such) but other than that, it's so much better than the current one. The national anthem is the one thing of the DDR that should have lived on in the current BRD.
Absolutely true
Ganz ruhig unsere Hymne hat viel mehr Geschichte als die DDR hymne
@@fuxihutterer8088 what's the story?
the current one is just a worn and censored anthem, created for the Austrian emperor...so not even written for Germany...unlike this one instead..you see how stupid all this is..
@@fuxihutterer8088macht sie aber nicht besser.
Es sollte alles aus der DDR weiter leben, sie war das wahre Deutschland, sie war das einzige Deutschland. Der Frieden ist Rot🚩✊🏼
I love that anthem, my dad lived in East Berlin in late 1980s, we are from Bulgaria
Im from Germany, and i also think that the east German anthem Is 10 times better because the anthem we use now is just so basic and boring but this is just something else
Genau
Es müßte eine Volksabstimmung geben, bin in der BRD geboren und finde die DDR-Hymne feierlichen und 100x besser als die der BRD und der Text ist super !
the current version isnt bad but its sounds sad and heavy. This version is more very solid and nice to sing
I agree. I do like our current anthem but this one does have a little more spunk to it.
@@justsayjustjustin9100 hättest auch auf deutsch antworten können😅😅
@@musikausdemosten Hätte ich auch machen sollen :D
current version was used by Third Reich
Danke für dieses Video.
Auferstanden aus Ruinen ist die wundervollste Hymne, die die Welt je gesehen hat.
Ja, das denke ich auch als Schwede.
ja da stimme ich dir zu mehr als 100% zu da ich selbst ein DDR Kind bin der hinter der Bauer gelebt hat und ein stolzer Prenzel Berger junge ist
Well i thig is was more emotional than the west was because we realy after ww2 we rise from ruins (auferstanden aus ruinen) because the maaannnyyy bombs thats was.
Edit: and the west german anthem was the historical anthem of germany. Manny people dont now what the "Deutschland über allem" was mean. In this time the componist of the Deutschlandlied would say that germany was over all smaller states abx over the holy roman empier etc.
thanks, das Lied der Deutschen was written around 1840
…Da Werden erinnerungen wach auf sehr Stolz die Ehemalige DDR Einfach Toll!!! 🇷🇺🇩🇪🇷🇺
Die Stasistaat?
@@briandelaney9710 Troll!!🤮
Blödsinn ,das hat nichts mit der Stasi zu tun. Die Hymne war eigentlich VOR dem Mauerbau als Gesamtdeutsche Hymne gedacht. Haben Adenauer und die Amerikaner verhindert !
PS: Half of Berlin was west-german the whole time, it’s a little bit bold to say Berlin is east-german. Beside that there are many beautiful cities there: Magdeburg, Dresden, Schwerin for example and I‘m telling this out of first hand ;)
Yes half of Berlin was west Germany but the whole city of Berlin existed within East Germany
Magdeburg?
@@yoinkumom6385 Nein
Danzig, Elbing, Breslau, Konigsberg, Allenstein.......
@@rickjensen2717 these cities are either polish or russian now, get over it fash
Yes, the anthem is more beautiful than the current one.
As an East German, I'd like to add a few fun facts:
Towards the last decade of the GDR, the text was banned, because it contains the word "united Fatherland".
And so only the melody was played, without the original lyrics.
The creators of the anthem made sure, that the East German lyrics could also be sung to the melody of the older and current anthem. And vice versa.
This means, that the lyrics and melodies of both hymns can be perfectly combined and exchanged without discord. This was probably intentional, as both sides were still hoping for a quick reunification at the time.
Greetings from Thuringia.

"It's all over now Baby Blue". The only national anthem where the lyrics were forbidden in their own country. This happened after the construction of the Berlin Wall in 1961. The lyrics include the line "Deutschland einig Vaterland". That was over after the Wall was built. From then on, the anthem was played in the GDR only without lyrics. 😎☯☮
Yes but it was in 1974 rather because both Germanies recognized each other and stopped wanting to annex each other (abgrenzung).
The DDR was not a good regime, but this is much better than the current anthem.
was better than West Germany
Hurray for the Soviet people
Hans Eisler was a Hollywood composer. :)
He was Austrian so.
Wonderful Anthem and this song and the writing should stay for all germany now.
Dearest, this is a long story, and a complex one. No doubt the DDR was the 'better' Gèrmany, and this was expressed by its anthem as well. But the Western anthem has a complex story as well, it was composed, at its time, by a person considered a dangerous terrorist in exile... history has its strange twists and complications.... thank you for sharing this inspiring anthem of the DDR
Johannes R. Becher was a genius. I've read his novel, Abschied, and I undertand his feelings and his contempt for the reacrionary bourgeois society of his time.
Nice video👍
Danke :D
The DDR represented the freedom of the working class in germany. I dont want the shit modern germany with this amazing anthem, we need to reconstruct the free germany and so we could have this anthem again. Long live socialism!
Du zeigst mir, daß der Radikalenerlass doch richtig war. Und ich würde alles dafür geben, das er wieder in Deutschland eingeführt wird.
@@johann.o23 ES LEBE DAS PROLETARIAT
In reality it was the party bureaucracy that called the shots. Especially in the early 50’s in the DDR, the workers were exploited with High work quotas. Thus the 1953 revolution
@@dklius Ja, in der Hölle.
@@briandelaney9710 In reality every capitalist supporter (either liberal or fascist) wants a bureacratic chair. Bureacratic dictaroship of capitalism cased 450 years of slavery, colonialism, genocides and world wars.
Thx :)
I was born 1981 in east-germany at the baltic-sea. I hate communism, i hate planned econemy, i hate the "STASI" monitoring state!
All that was the GDR, but i cant forget my childhood and all the music i hear in and after the fkn wall breaks down.
Thx for some good memories u rised up in me :)
It is a bit stupid to hate your own country altough I get the hate for the regime tho. Also it is funny how I have meet a lot of East Germans that lived through that era who would say opposite things :P
how careless to translate "glück" as "luck", clearly in this context it's in the meaning of "fortune" or "happiness".
Better as our current one!
I prefer the stately Deutschehymne but I do think Auferstanden aus Ruinen should have been kept as an alternative anthem
..stately?? it sounds like the music of a funeral mass...😂
I like the instrumentals more and I feel like there’s more content in the lyrics so yeah I like this one more as well
Die Prinzen, Es war nicht alles schlecht.
Did you see what the mothers feel about it?
Rance theme basically
Rance?
@@SenyorCapitàCollons Search for "Comparison between East Germany Anthem and a well-known remix". Rance is famous rpg with vn elements in Japan
Now the song suits to Ukraine a lot.
That is what happens if you try to antagonize Russia.
