well, at least these guys don't take themselves seriously and basically only did this on one album for fun. but when you consider, that there are people, who actually really do this for a longterm living, _that_ is a reason for fremdschämen.
It makes me very happy that this & Rammstein are our biggest music exports. Pride in our country isn't really a thing for Germans, but if this doesn't make you a patriot for all 2:52 minutes of it, you're not really German.
"I know it's for kids." Haha. You'd think, wouldn't ya? Eventhough kids generally have a pretty bad taste in music it's not THAT bad. It's the old folks who usually listen to this stuff.
You know... if you brew some of the best beer in the world... the question is, why is there so few of this excellently, well thought trough and masterfull performed music around here in germany... Beethoven, Bach... and the... jeah... oh man... the Woodys.
one of the guys is the son of an actual 'schlager singer' ('schlager' is a quite embarassing type of german folk music of the post-war era). so, he did one album (and esp. this song) to a) make daddy proud and b) for fun (and probably money). he does it in a way that is on the edge of a 'schlager parody', but 'good enough' to get invited to this 'schlager TV show'.
You should add the context of this song, have a look to the creepy lyrics when translated into English I'm the little Fichtl from a magic land And I ask all you people to please understand Our lives are in dire straits If nobody helps us, it'll only get worse And you humans will never be happy again [Refrain] La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la Dear sweet human children, listen up You make us little Fichtls' lives difficult You must always watch out for the environment Otherwise we'll perish from the filth And Mother Earth will soon be gone [Refrain] La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
So slowly I'm worried, because somehow you come to the taste of folk music? Really old stuff, but if you like it. As long as not, before a rating still sits there with leather pants and Tiroller hat there, then it's still alright hihi .....
This is how all the prejudices against Germany come about. Let me assure you that the material seen here is far from reflecting Germany. When I see something like that, I wish I would behave like in North Korea. Nothing penetrates the outside world. It is so embarrassing that this trash goes around the world and shapes this image of Germany for other countries. This is fringe entertainment for our great grandparents. Oh god that's bad. All that's missing is the bratwurst and the sauerkraut. And the hottest thing is that it's all full playback. That means they also make us look ridiculous through pantomimes. But nice that you have fun. Is contagious. In that case, however, I prefer to get infected with corona. 😁 Now imagine the police are driving through an American gangster ghetto with the windshield down in their car with this song at full volume. I'm sure they all allow themselves to be arrested voluntarily just so that they can finally turn it off. Another possibility would be to make this song into the compulsory program of inmates in prisons. Once released, these people will no longer relapse. I have a theory. I think this music encourages drug addiction in childhood. Otherwise you can't take it either. The dumbing down of our children starts with something like that.
Now you know why there is a word like "Fremdschämen" in German informal speech. Definition: the feeling of shame on someone's else behalf
LoL! :D
well, at least these guys don't take themselves seriously and basically only did this on one album for fun. but when you consider, that there are people, who actually really do this for a longterm living, _that_ is a reason for fremdschämen.
@@montanus777 LoL! All good, I'm not judging. :) People were applauding so they seemed to have enjoyed it. :)

Lmfao I love die woodys and your face when the music started 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is indeed the correct reaction to Die Woodys
Awesome that and how the singer's career exploded 10Y later as the singer of Rammstein
(OK I just tried to make a bad joke)
LoL! Imagine!
We would like to apologize to the world for having caused WWII and this!

Thank you so much for your continuous support! :D
Greetings from germany...a big Nation 🤣
Hi there! LoL! :D
Its a Meme in Germany 😂 sorry for that mate 😁
It's a meme around the world. It's too funny! :D
Vodka/cold War effects on Germany were scary and we need to talk about that, why don't we speak about that in history?
jajaaja it´s too much hahhaahah i´m crying jajajaja the face hahahah the pi piiiii hahahahah
LoL!

Heh, that's quite the story.
Knorkator - Buchstabe
Now watch "Behind the Scenes: Die Woodys - Fichtl's Lied [live / no music]", I lose it everytime.
There's such a thing? LoL! Do you have a link and is there an English translation? Otherwise I won't understand it...
You should add the context of this song, have a look to the creepy lyrics when translated into English
I'm the little Fichtl from a magic land
And I ask all you people to please understand
Our lives are in dire straits
If nobody helps us, it'll only get worse
And you humans will never be happy again
[Refrain]
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
Dear sweet human children, listen up
You make us little Fichtls' lives difficult
You must always watch out for the environment
Otherwise we'll perish from the filth
And Mother Earth will soon be gone
[Refrain]
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la, la la, la la la la
Some of the lyrics translated would be "people will never be happy again" and "soon mother earth won't be there anymore" classic german darkness
So this is supposed to be for kids? My question is…..Where are they?? I didn’t see many in the audience! 😂
Congratulations to 1000 subscribers! Well deserved!!! - and ähm... sorry.. I can not explain this... :D :D :D It's that other dark side of Germany :D
Thank you so much! :D LoL!
Oh my G....... Now it's clear why the Neue Deutsche Härte came shortly after. The kids that grew up with this crap had to strike back! :-D I'm dying.
Stefan Raab - Wadde Dadde Dudda Da

So slowly I'm worried, because somehow you come to the taste of folk music? Really old stuff, but if you like it. As long as not, before a rating still sits there with leather pants and Tiroller hat there, then it's still alright hihi .....
LoL! :D
If you translate it into English the lyrics are pretty dark
die woodys was not serious with this song , but people in the show thought It was serious
Either way, I love it! :D
Ofc they were
the song is about nature
Don't watch this while you're high.
Rammstein should make a cover.
Bruh... I'd pay good money for a Rammstein cover, LoL!
@@xsezz Imagine Flake playing the left guys silly keyboard, while Till makes these cuckoo noises.
@@wolfgangengel4835 LoL! Again, I'd pay good money to see that.
Who suggested this to you???
👧 I wanted to ask the same...
I‘m pretty sure nobody did, he already knew about this from a meme lol
As mentioned in the comment below, I knew of this meme from years ago and I was keeping it for a special occasion. :)
