- "Zu Asche, Zu Staub" from the hit series Babylon Berlin Original Soundtrack.
Available now: BMG.lnk.to/Bab...
Written and composed by Nikko Weidemann, Mario Kamien and Tom Tykwer
Produced by Nikko Weidemann and Mario Kamien
Performed by Severija
„BABYLON BERLIN“ - INGENIOUS SOUNDTRACK ACCOMPANYING THE OUTSTANDING 16-EPISODE TV-SERIES INVITES TO A PANOPTIC EXPERIENCE OF 1920's BERLIN ON 2 CDs.
„BABYLON BERLIN“ is the hitherto costliest German TV-series. But it is already standing firm that the 16-episode series will be a hitting endeavour, with licences bought by most European countries and North America. "BABYLON BERLIN" is the first joint TV-series project by X Filme Creative Pool, Sky, ARD and Beta Film. Tom Tykwer, Henk Handloegten and Achim von Borries are directors and screenplay writers.
Based on an internationally bestselling thriller by novelist Volker Kutscher featuring detective Gereon Rath, „BABYLON BERLIN“ is set in the decadent and glamorous world of 1920's Berlin. Unbound hedonism, drugs and politics, homicide and art, emancipation from sexual stereotyping and extremism - „BABYLON BERLIN“ navel-gazes the mores of 1920's Berlin, perfectly staged.
Simultaneously released to the start of the series on Pay-TV, its soundtrack unites 34 tracks in a 2-CD-Set, which work as an impressive musical accompaniment to the striking pictures of the series.
Watch Babylon Berlin now! All 16 episodes available for streaming - only at Sky.

LYRICS:
Zu Asche, zu Staub
Dem Licht geraubt
Doch noch nicht jetzt
Wunder warten bis zuletzt
Ozean der Zeit
Ewiges Gesetz
Zu Asche, zu Staub
Zu Asche
Doch noch nicht jetzt
Zu Asche, zu Staub
Dem Licht geraubt
Doch noch nicht jetzt
Wunder warten
Doch noch nicht jetzt
Wunder warten bis zuletzt
Es ist doch nur ein Traum
Das bloße Haschen nach dem Wind
Wer weiß es schon genau?
Die Uhr an deiner Wand
Sie ist gefüllt mit Sand
Leg deine Hand in mein'
Und lass uns ewig sein
Du triffst nun deine Wahl
Und wirfst uns zwischen Glück und Qual
Doch kann ich dir verzeihen
Du bist dem Tod so nah
Und doch dein Blick so klar
Erkenne mich, ich bin bereit
Und such mir die Unsterblichkeit
Es ist doch nur ein Traum
Das bloße Haschen nach dem Wind
Wer weiß es schon genau?
Die Uhr an deiner Wand
Sie ist gefüllt mit Sand
Leg deine Hand in mein'
Und lass uns ewig sein
Du triffst nun deine Wahl
Und wirfst uns zwischen Glück und Qual
Doch kann ich dir verzeihen
Du bist dem Tod so nah
Und doch dein Blick so klar
Erkenne mich
Ich bin bereit
Und such mir die Unsterblichkeit

It was this scene that made me pause and realize I'm watching art and not just some TV show
In season three and four there are further similar art moments.
Exact 🤠
THIS was the moment Babylon Berlin stole my heart (and made me want to learn german)
Come on and try to learn some words in german. I will help you to teach. Greetings from Germany. Love Robert
TXS-Ballistics agree
And the singer is not even German. What a big interesting world!
Absolutely
Unheiloig
A Lithuanian actor playing a Russian countess who is singing in German while dressed in drag. Not a Hollywood production. They don't have the imagination to part from their old formulas. Brava!
Well, being German to its worst or best: You are wrong. It's just the words. Listen ! Kudos :)
а в российском сериале она играет американку-коммунистку эмигрировавшую в СССР
I think she's speaking Russian very well!))
@@denisnos697 это в каком?
Оптимисты 2 сезона
Nothing I have seen on screen in the last ten years at least has moved and impressed like Babylon Berlin.
You should watch the Dark series, one of the best series ever, also a German production
The singing alone is a masterpiece of mixed metaphors. A woman dressed as a man. A Russian singing in German with a Berliner accent. Then there is the white women doing the banana dance, made famous in Paris by Josephine Baker. The band with influences from American big band to Klezmer. This one scene encapsulates the artistic boiling stew of east and west that made Berlin the nervous beating heart of a people haunted by the horror of empire and serfdom, plus the worst banking system in German history.
This comentar is amazin.
Just for your information:
She is Lithuanian)
Also a nice comment.
Or you are about her role in the series
@@ilyaignatiev6990 : The actress is Lithuanian, but the character she plays in this series is a Russian spy.
Eine Perle moderner deutscher Serienproduktion.
@gerhard prive Kann ich nicht bewerten, hab ich noch nicht gesehen. Aber die 1. und 2. waren echt gut.
Edit: Mittlerweile kenne ich alle 3. Die dritte war schwächer, das stimmt, aber gemocht hab ich sie auch.
@gerhard prive Zur 3. Staffel kann man stehen, wie man möchte. Fand sie auch etwas schwächer als die ersten beiden. Aber wie kommst du darauf, dass sie aufgrund von Geldgeilheit verkackt wurde?
Sehe ich nicht so.
Jedes Mol wenn ich bstimmt sawe
Krass dass so etwas in Deutschland noch möglich ist. Vollig absurd wie unfassbar gut diese Serie ist.
*First time hearing this song:* Ok, this is pretty weird, but I'll listen
*Third time hearing it:* OK, this is starting to grow on me
*Fifth time hearing it:* 🙌UND SUCH' MIR DIE UNSTERBLICHKEIT🙌
Same😂
I see no lie
💯 this
Same happened with me
The same 😅
Love how the melancholy nature of the song and lyrics mix up with the weird costumes and choreography on the stage and the crowd in total bliss. The fast cutting of the violent, pornographic, and nightmarish scenes adds to the feeling of being trapped with them in a decadent, nihilistic, and almost doomed society. They really captured the idea of the "Roaring Twenties" in a single music video.
No kidding. It's the calm before the storm.
Dieses Lied ist hypnotisch, ich kann es immer wieder hören.
Ich auch
Ja mit Tränen in den Augen
Hypnotisch. Da hast du ein perfektes Wort für das Lied gefunden.
hypnotisch.. wie das Lied vom Rattenfänger..
Ich auch
Talking about perfection: this is it.
The best I've seen in years.
Everything comes together: the story, the actors, the camera work, the music - as I said, everything.
One of the best series of 2000s.
To ashes, to dust
Robbed from the light
But not right now, not yet
Wonders are waiting
To the very end
Ocean of time
Eternal laws
It's just a dream
It's purely catching
Catching the wind
Who knows that for sure?
The clock on your wall
It's just filled with sand
Put your hand in mine
And let us be eternal
Eternal auld lang syne
Now you make your choice
You throw us between joy and despair
But I can forgive you
You are so close to death
But yet, your gaze so clear
Recognize me, I am ready
And look for eternity with me!!!
I couldn't agree more.
This serie is pure magic. I don't know the author of the book but what I know for sure is that he is a James Ellroy fan. Everything in the characters, the stories, the cops, the mob... makes me think of Black Dhalia or other Ellroy masterpiece.
It’s just the way this feature is used to educate people about that time in Berlin. The 1930s as Hitler and Nazis came to power. Very decadent time
@@nightbloomer4739Sadly like today...decadence, huge problems on the other side and decorated with a new media. At that time it was the Volksemöfänger, today it's the social media...'every generation needs it's own desease..'
And that's not cringe, that's s scary!
Eine hochwertige deutsche Produktion ohne Matthias Schweighöfer, Til Schweiger oder Elyas M'Barek. Das ich das noch erleben darf 🥲
Genau deswegen IST es ja eine hochwertige Produktion. ;-)
Es gibt hochwertige deutsche Produktionen mit Matthias Schweighöfer, Til Schweiger oder Elyas M'Barek?
@@befoerderungsfall Genau das dachte ich auch :D
Die Vetternwirtschaft in der deutschen Filmindustrie ist der Grund warum diese Hampelmänner immerwieder Rollen bekommen. Keiner kann mir erzählen dass einer von denen auf einem richtigen casting überzeugen konnte.
This series is perfect. The cast, scenario.. just everything.
The third season is a little bit off tho

I agree. I am delighted and horrified simultaneously. I don’t know how exactly historically accurate it is but this show does a much better job explaining where peoples’ heads were at than any texbook explanation of the Weimar Republic
I think Babylon Berlin is the best series I have ever seen. Applause from Norway 🇳🇴
Thanks to Norway°
and from Italy too....
Compelling series that always kept you guessing. From the UK
.
Another good German series though different time period Deutschland 83. The sequel is out but I haven't seen it. If you like books in the same sort of setting as Babylon Berlin read the late Phillip Kerr's Bernie Gunther series.
Unbelievable - what a song. It hits on the feeling of the exuberant past epoch in Germany, when Berlin was probably the coolest, most artistic, most beautiful, trendsetting and perhaps also the most decadent city in the world. The song has to get a Grammy. And the series is also breathtaking and frightening at the same time. I've never seen anything like this before - and I am 56.
I agree and I was geboren in 1942.
E G F cool so alt englisch könne und Medien nutzen 👍
What about Berlin Alexanderplatz by great master Fasbinder, my generation? But I agree, this is different era and uncomparable.
I would say Babylon Berlin ranks up there with Berlin Alexanderplatz and Heimat, which is very high praise indeed.
Praha!!! Fucking adolf piece of shit!
Would you look at that, Germans can indeed produce blockbuster entertainment that doesn't need to hide from US productions. Please more of that! :)
yeaa if it comes to ww2 stuff...but nothing else.
@@Plexpara Are you kidding? So you haven't watched Dark yet?
Plexpara you‘re funny, this Series plays in the 20th and describes some parts of Weimarer Republics history
@@ajo5832 this series is about the upcoming nazi times....
A Jo no it´s not. Watch it from the beginning, I really recommend it!
bro germans were crazy for making this show it's literally the best thing i've ever seen
an exceptional series. So far away from Hollywood, it is a tornado of fresh air.
Ich finde es so genial, dass sich diese Serie einfach mal 5 Minuten Zeit für so eine Szene nimmt, die kaum was zur Handlung beiträgt, aber das damalige Lebensgefühl genial rüberbringt. Gibt es immer wieder mal, und trotzdem habe ich mich keine Minute gelangweilt. Das kann ich nicht von allen aktuellen Top-Serien sagen.
Da stimme ich voll zu. Nicht dass ich die Zeit hätte mitmachen wollen, aber sie war wohl hochspannend und das im warsten Sinne des Wortes politisch, gesellschaftlich und kulturell. Hab bei ZEIT online einen sehr guten Artikel der das - begleitend zur Serie - schriftlich beschreibt. Ich hab mich auch nicht gelangweilt. ^^
Bin schon gespannt auf die 2. Staffel.
Ich will eine Zeitmaschine und eine Nacht im Moka Efti Party machen...... Hör und schau den Clip zum x-ten Mal.
Nehmen Sie mich dann mit? Bitte! ^^
Ich denke, das wollen alle :)) Komm, lass uns alle zusammen hinfahren ...
Ist ja auch das Hauptziel der Serie.
Better than every Best Song Oscar nominee this year.
Bu-bu-bu-but what about lady gaga and bradley cooper they so cute together😍😘😗😙😚
100% AGREE..PARISITE IS ..NOOOOO
Fabulous
Thankfully ! You've said what's been on my mind since I stopped watching the Grammy's. I'd rather my decadence had a melody line and Power Chords.; story line too. What a rush! Song makes you embrace ALL HUMANITY. We couldn't wait for season 2; so grateful for season 3, right now. Eff you covid. Long live The Fillmore East!!! too...
@@jukeboxgraduate YES YOU ARE RIGHT SONG SOMETIME MAKES YOU EMBRACE ALL HUMANITY
Ich muss zugeben.. beim ersten hören war der Gesang der Interpretin etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig aber ich erwisch mich trotzdem dabei wie ich jetzt schon zum 3ten Mal dieses Video gucke 😂
Best series of the year. Go ahead, Deutschland, we want more astonishing art like this.
best series at DEUTSCHLAND ever! (not only for a year -instead since 1945!)
Watch Dark and Deutschland 83 and 86. Two amazing series also from Germany.
@Pele Gacinovic , What do you think is art in video and cinema?
@Pele Gacinovic , you fail to understand that 2019 America and the rest of the countries in the Industrialized World are in a period of death and uncertainty just as were the 1930's characters in Babylon Berlin. At that epoch, times were so desperate, chaotic and Thanatos -like that all the Germans were high on something. 1930 Berliners worked like hell & partied like hell, in part, so they could defer their attention from the death & destruction that was headed their way. Severija's mad act leads the death waltz to the invasion of Russia.
The demise of the 85 IQ, American factory worker & the rise of the robot have put people into the same state of mind. Babylon Berlin is art because it catches the Zeitgeist of 2019. America has Donald Trump, our Hitler figure, & it has our own goon squad, the Red Hats who parallel the "Nazi Brown Shirts". Charlottesville was a presage to our own Krystal Nacht.
Furthermore, our "Why Don't We Get Drunk & Screw" and "Bye Bye Miss American Pie" parallel "Zu Asche Zu Staub". Babylon Berlin is art because it is a 1930's like theme which works perfectly in 2019. "Babylon Berlin" is art because it illustrates that history repeats itself endlessly .Like Germany in the 1930's, America in 1919 is headed for an Apocalypse. To quote Don McClain, "It's eight miles high and falling fast." "Bye Bye Miss American Pie".
John Walder, sadly Germany only has one Tom Tykwer.
Babylon Berlin is one of the greatest series! Sensational story! Perfect Cut! Amazing Music! Great work at all involved!
This is far superior to anything that can be produced in UK or USA, the acting, the plots, the music.... Best series I've watch in so many years
I agree, John. T h e b e s t.
Utopia
As an Englishman who adores Germany, This series is certainly as good as it gets, The acting, atmosphere, music, style, would love to see it on the big screen.
Je confirme que cette série est très bonne.
Surtout que pour cette période, il y a de quoi faire.
_"The Sopranos"_ and _"The Wire"_ are still my all-time favorite TV shows by far.
But yes, _"Babylon Berlin"_ and _"Gomorrah",_ from Italy, are far better than anything that comes out of Hollywood/the US film industry these days.
Both are/were made by "Sky" and public film funds.
Still, America has the best film industry in the world by far. But by the large quantity, the quality is often lacking.
I'm hoping HBO is going to put out another well-made show again. They're the best! They always film their shows were they actually take place. Not inside some Hollywood studios.
It's silly when a show like _"NCIS",_ which is taking place in Washington DC and the surrounding area, is being filmed in f**king California!
This series was simply stunning in its originality.
I had no idea where the story was going and I was just memorized every episode.
Easily the best foreign show I’ve ever seen and may ever see
Warlock Cow another one: generation war.
victorelciego1978 Generation war is one of my favourites!
another great one: deutschland 83
We are all foreigners, and thereby friends, friend.

If you are watching this show on netflix, I suggest switching the language from english to german, and using subtitles.
The english dub is very poor.
This show is a masterpiece
So true. I nearly quit this after 5 mins of the first episode due to the overdub. Then I did the language change you suggest and hey presto, the most gripping series I've ever seen on Netflix. A masterpiece.
I think something is seriously wrong with people watching dubbed movies. Lazy to read, I don't get it?
Yes! I switched from English dub to German with subs for my 2nd time watching season 1&2 much better.
@@natasarodic3462 When I was younger I didn't read fast enough for subs. I have a learning disability so it took until my mid to late 20's to be where I should be.
@@tableofignorance thought I was the only one haha. Five mins into episode 1 I changed. The American accents just dont sound right at all and it's so weird seeing the lips move incorrectly
Ich glaube, ich habe in meinem Leben noch nie so eine tolle Serie gesehen. Sie ist genau wie das Lied hinreissend, spannend, düster aber gleichzeitig voller Lebensdrang und Reiz. Ein Lied vor dem Untergang, aber noch ist Zeit für tanzen...
Eine Serie, die Filmdeutschland glänzen lässt, und ein Denkmal der vergessenen Helden der Weimarer Republik setzt.
Grüsse aus Dänemark
This is absolutley the best TV-series I've ever have seen, outstanding quality.
Gibt es das wirklich? Eine Serie aus Deutschland bei der alles stimmt und zwar bis in die kleinste Kleinigkeit, man ist begeistert und dann kommt diese Szene, dieses Lied und es haut einen endgültig um! Ich weiß nicht, ob sich meine Nackenhaare jemals wieder glatt legen... großes Fernsehen!
DARK ist noch besser ;)
@@leckmich_amarsch das ist echt schwer zu vergleichen! Dark ist sehr gut, aber Babylon Berlin vermittelt etwas anderes...
Die Details sind großartig, aber ich finde es ist viel zu viel unrealistisch gemacht. 10 Minuten im gesunkenen Auto überleben usw.
Einer der besten Filme die bis dato im deutschem Fernsehen gezeigt wurden. Ich hoffe die nächste Staffel kommt bald.
Ich finde die Serie klasse. Mich interessiert es sehr, wie die Leute früher gelebt haben.
I loved this so much that I watched all 16 episodes in 3 nights and am now trying to get my husband into it.
Brilliant song beautifully performed by Severija and all the dancing in the audience including the stars of the show. I love how they just straight up plopped this 5+ minute song into the show, the entire performance, and the dance routine to the drum solo.
So underrated, I wish this show had more international recognition.
What do you mean? It has been shown in more than 100 countries worldwide, making it one of the most successful German series ever.
@@solokom Well, it deserves way more. Not a very accurate measurement but the show has about 31k ratings on imdb while every average netflix or hbo production gets 100-500k, the biggest shows like got and breaking bad have 2.3mil.
Just watching it again and again in Great Britain. Listen to the unbelievable song over and over again. This is the purest and best ever series ever seen in TV. What a quality of communication in every aspect of film making. This is perfection of film making!
after the quarantine is over I'm coming to Berlin to party like this, we have to start the new roaring 20s
Maybe we`'ll meet there. I'm feeling such a hunger for life, after all this time in quarantine!
Just before the roaring 30's I see.
Absalon yes, you are right... the same time as described in Cabare movie
Andris Jansons ❤️
DIMITRIOS DENDIAS ww3 is already here, I think... sorry...
The best television series I have ever seen. It is brilliant, dark evocative and sometimes frightening but draws me back into its web. The most perfect visuals and acting, directing composition. What can I add to this? It is great art. Babylon Berlin is perfection.
One night, I was dying and coughing up blood while watching Babylon Berlin, I liked the show but I was too sick, drifting in and out of consciousness with vision so blurry. Then this song comes on in episode 2, and while I was still coughing up blood, I could see and hear it, this song revived me, I love it and everything and person in it. I wish I could be there someday. Babylon Berlin and this song are some of my favorite things of all time not just because they are amazing, but because of how they made me feel in so desperate a time. Now I also sing this everywhere I go.
@𝕋ℝ𝔼𝕏𝟟𝟟 Alive and well, it was my Birthday last Sunday, November 14. I have recovered from that terrible sickness. I'm glad I didn't die at the age of sixteen. And yes, this is still my favorite song of all time and I sing it everywhere.
меня тоже
@@sethwolski6192 Glad you are better!
@@sethwolski6192 I can understand how the song and the production of the song gave you energy and delight. I played this scene over and over for months and still love it and have both CDs (they slowly grew on me, especially I could place them with scenes in BB). But for you, it saved your life. So, so glad you got well and I hope you went on to enjoy the later series. At this date there is the final series 5 to come.....sad but necessary. What a superb production: an intelligent masterpiece in every way from casting, characterisation, scripts, production values, music (of course), direction, editing, conceptualisation, historical interpretation, drama, etc etc.
Amazing series,amazing song,a masterpiece of art noir and...The original Moka Efti was a cafe at the corner Leipziger Strasse -Friedrichstrasse. It was named after its Greek-Italian owner, Giovanni Eftimiades and it opened in April 1929. . Greetings from Greece.
Fascinante, maravilloso
Danke. Grüße nach Griechenland, dem Beginn Europas.
Thank you. Greetings
Very interesting!
Interessant ❤
Hut ab Tom Twyker für dieses Meisterwerk, mit großartigen Schauspielern und Musik, die die 20 er Jahre nochmals aufleben lassen! Diese Produktion hat sich definitiv gelohnt!
Als ein Pariser, ich bin seit lange ein Fan von Berlin...das war sehr leicht ein absolute Fan von dieses fantastisch Serie zu sein. Schell die dritte Staffet!!
Ein Meisterwerk deutscher Filmkunst und ein mitreißender Einblick in das Berlin der 1920er Jahre!
Grüße aus einem indonesische Fan! Die Serie ist einfach ein Meisterwerk! Die Geschichte und die historische Aspekte sind überall sehr interessant; plus fantastische Soundtracks! Was will man mehr?
Natürlich die 3. Staffel!
Süüper
Kann dir nur zustimmen!
@José Hoppenstedt danke, habe für fast 3 Jahre in Berlin gewohnt, super tolle Stadt!
Liebe Grüße zurück von einem Berliner, der gerade Indonesisch in der Uni lernt!

This is one of the very best moments in television so far - Tom Tykwer is a magician.
I had to watch the entire final credits to get the name of this particular track, played during the ending credits. As an English speaking Canadian, I can honestly say this series is probably the best foreign language series I have ever had the opportunity to watch and enjoy.
The music, the era, Berlin!, the acting, the costumes, and the Weimar Republic. There is so much going on in this series, for which it truly defined the term "binge watching" for me.
Thanks to director, Tom Tywker 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Doch noch nicht jetzt...Was für eine Serie, was für ein Song !
Hut ab und großen Dank an die "Macher" !!!
The half-naked dancers in the background are an innuendo to Josephine Baker.
She popularized the Charleston dance (the famous flapper dance everyone associates with the roaring 20s) and she used to wear her infamous banana dress. After she fled from segregation in the USA, she became famous in Paris and then also in the Weimar Republic.
Josephine is probably the first black woman to ever become a star after modern mass culture emerged.
I am late, but I could not believe my eyes nor ears when I watched this scene in series. Gut gemacht! Absolutely amazing
That song is going world wide and Babylon Berlin is the Birth again of the great German cinema
Thank you. Greatings from Germany. Love Robert
German cinema is and always has been bloody brilliant!
This song really does crawl into your brain and take up residence. Always enjoy watching the club performance sequence as the audience sings and dances along. Looking forward to season 3 of BB - unfortunately, it takes a tragic turn: the grand experiment of the Weimar Republic is near over and the Nazis are seizing power. Should be fascinating nonetheless. The Germans really are doing a fantastic job with their long narrative TV series. Along with BB, for those of you who've not seen "Dark" yet - watch it. One of the greatest series ever produced for television. Anywhere.
Word!
Dark and BB, best German shows I've watched. Any other recommendations?
@@dawarrior95 Non German? Of recent vintage, I strongly recommend two series currently on HBO Max: Station 11 and The Leftovers. Both are exceptional. For something really off the beaten path - and what I consider perhaps one of the greatest things ever put on television anywhere - the BBC's 1986 6 episode series The Singing Detective. It is beyond description. TH-cam has all six episodes here:

The song is good, but barely resembles anything from the period. It's clearly meant to sound like Brecht/Weill - but they used chords differently back then. They wouldn't have hung on a pedal point for the whole first verse, then gone to a repeating, slightly varied four-chord vamp for the chorus. It's much more modern pop music, glam/goth variety.
I would agree, but it’s still a good song
From an American who cannot speak German, this series is amazing!!
Learning this song in German just to sing along...
Awesome!
She's singing with a fairly strong Slavic accent. Which, to German speakers I reckon (or at least this German speaker), is part of the charm.

Netflix has it dubbed in English absolutely my favorite show of the year
This series is so good. Greetings from Turkey. Gereon. 😻
Babylon Berlin is more than good, even great. But Germany, do I, from the gloomy Balkans, have to remind on uncomparable Berlin Alexanderplatz by R.W. Fasbinder, as just a piece of his magnificent opus. That was the root-this is a fruit.
And don't forget “Heimat“ by Edgar Reitz. Epic
Berlin alexanderplatz was very good as well
Was für ein Song - episch, gewaltig, gefühlvoll, wunderschön. Für die Ewigkeit - Danke - und was für eine Performance - besser geht es nicht 🙏
Genau danke für deinen Kommentar

Grüße aus einem chinesischen Fan!!! Die beste deutsche Serie, die von zahlreichen chinesischen Zuschauern großartig bewertet wird. Leider können sich die meisten nicht durch "offiziellen Kanal" anschauen....
Welche Kanäle stehen euch denn zur Verfügung?
schade :(
@@fabianb.5348 na ja, das hängt immer davon ab, was man sich anschaut. Die Games of Throne und Co. z.B. wurden von chinesischen Streaming-Diensten gekauft, deswegen kann man die mit einem Abo-Service wie hier "offiziell" gucken. Aber die Serien wie Babylon Berlin oder Dark sind zwar ziemlich beliebt bei vielen Zuschauern, aber nicht beliebt genug, oder vielleicht hat sich die Verbreitungsfirma nicht genug darum bemüht, die Serien an den Chinesen zu verkaufen. Deswegen gibt es freiwillige Fans, die die Serien irgendwie heruntergeladen (ich weiss nicht wie) und dann ins Chinesische übersetzt haben. Anschliessend stellen sie die auf einer Webseite zur Verfügung. Das ist eigentlich illegal und nicht gut für den Schutz geistigen Eigentums... aber gut für die Fans... Leider ist das so gelaufen...
Su Magnin sehr spannende Antwort! Dankeschön!
Well, they blew a heck of a lot of money on this- but luckily they created a masterpiece! Bravo!
Dave Wiseman Money well spent not blown!
@ Dave Wiseman .....Both.............. I can't understand German at all but I'm an artist and can appreciate everything that went into this I can't wait until the next season comes out if it does
Dave Wiseman at least people think it's a masterpiece. I think it's a masterpiece of shit
@ Dave Wiseman: I hope the German public TV stations will spend more money on series' like this. You have to pay about US$ 20 monthly per household here. To raise the money for their share of Babylon Berlin the ARD invested the fees of just ONE day. The rest was paid for by Sky and Beta.
Audience from China send her love!!!!
Listening from Ghana, West Africa and loving every second of it. Amazing artistry!
Greetings from Europe!
As a Berliner I love to see how far this artistry reaches. It doesn't happen too often that a German series is beloved by so many people all over the world.
Das Lied ,die Serie sind einfach Großartig ich habe keine Folge verpasst. Beste Grüße an das Team
One of the best series on Netflix along with Dark - also German!
Ray van Wayenburg Dark was great too, you’re right
Yes! My 2 favorite series on Netflix also.
Babylon berlin is not on Netflix in my country sadly ;((
An Australian here who can’t speak German, and this song has been stuck in my head for days. Such a great show too!
Song with english Subtitles: th-cam.com/video/dF0Kg06dolw/w-d-xo.html
This song is absolutely amazing.
Thanks for the subs, since I made the original comment, I’ve visited Germany for the first time (only Munich) . Beautiful people and food. And the technological company headquarters we deal with back at home, is surreal.
I've listenned this song fifty times.(^^♪ We call this situation "yamitsuki" in Japanese.
Well then I guess I have the yamitsuki too
We call it "Ohrwurm" in Germany
@@heibk-2019 I call it stupidity.
@@vova47 so edgy
@@heibk-2019 No, "Ohrwurm" is when you hear it in your head against your will, and cannot get rid of it. "Yamitsuki" is when you choose to listen to it over and over, and cannot get enough of it.
This was a masterpiece. The utter decadence of this era. The unimaginable horrors to come.
Hold on tight world. It gets worse before it gets worse.
It took me a little bit to warm up with this show; after watching the first episode I was impressed but not blown away. After completing the second episode though, and listening to this beautiful song (which feels like both late '20s and modern at the same time, maybe a cross between Marlene Dietrich and a bit of Kraftwerk minus the electronics) I think this show is now my most favourite at the moment, and I watch quite a lot of them.
God, this show is so good. To anyone who hasn't watched it yet, you're missing out!
I have loved this series. I have watched in the first 3 seasons 4 times since I discovered it 2 months ago. I discover so much each time.
The music, the costumes, the dancing, the acting, the multiple storyline’s, the ability to immerse in this period of time and really lose yourself. Amazing. I wish more people knew of this series, I am in Australia and there aren’t that many people I know that have watched it.
Die Details machen es zu einem Kunstwerk!!
Same here in Greece. None of my relatives, friends, or colleagues know about this series, which is a pity. It's a masterpiece. I accidentally came across it, and I'm currently watching it. I'm hooked!
I have had Netflix for two years. This and Breaking Bad are the best. This scene is the highlight of Babylon Berlin. The song and the visuals haunt me years later.
i'm from Canada -- i binge watched this show so fast!! i love it!! need another season!
You'll get it. Season 3 has been confirmed.
Jedesmal bekomme ich Gänsehaut wenn ich das höre
genau so gehts mir
Ja das stimmt...
This sounds and looks SO fucking cool! And man, this song was an experience - it didn't sound like anything I've ever heard before. Absolutely breathtaking. Sending hugs and kisses from Czech Republic to my talented and beautiful german "neighbours"
Rina I Love the Czech language so beautiful but so hard...❤😭
Ruby Abc haha aww that's so sweet that you think it's beautiful ❤️ I don't dislike it but imo slovak language is even nicer, it's very very similar to czech, but more soft, gentle and delicate :-)
Rina I want to learn those languages but I've heard that they're really hard :/
Ruby Abc hmm i guess that's true, even we czech people have problems with our own language sometimes lol! :D I'd say it's hard and tricky and there's a lot to learn, BUT it is not impossible :-)
Agreed! When I saw this it blew my mind and reminded me quite a bit of Marlene Dietrich and David Bowie. Greetings from Amerika. I don't have Czech ancestry but my family ancestry comes from Northwest Germany in a small town callled Wesselburen. Auf Wiedersehen from the U.S.
This song was one of inspirations to write a theatre play about pre war Breslau. We perform it now seeing people moved. Thank you. When I close my eyes I see this city.
The series is fantastic, and this song is hypnothic. Greetings from Sweden!
Lotte is totally my new favorite heroine. Following her journey and wishing her great things the entire 2 series. Her social life was definitely a busy one.
Yes, it is.
@@TheTrueAdrian No, the second season is the making, but not out yet.
@@WindspriteM Absolutely not. The first and second season were produced and released together. I've seen both. The first season consists only of the first 8 episodes. The rest is season 2.
When Gereon told her his name and she asked, "Gereon? Are you from the Middle Ages?," I was hooked!
Ich genieße diese Serie in Großbritannien bei Sky TV. Brillant Ausgezeichnet! Entschuldigung für mein Google Translate. Ich muss Deutsch lernen!
Simonc48 in german it's "google Übersetzung"
nutzlose info lol
Ich kann dir helfen, ich lerne auch Deutsch (I can help u, I learn German as well)
alles prima, bestes DEUTSCH!...und danke für Deinen lieben Kommentar zu unsere tollsten SERIE! .. Farewell and all the best to and with GB!
I LOVE THIS SHOW! It is so well done. Twists and turns. Perfectly cast, Set design is off the hook, Costumes glorious, Music is spectacular. Fantastic writing, haunting color palette. 10 out of 10 stars!!!! I'm addicted. I can't wait for the next season to come out.
Ganz großes Kino, musikalisch, lyrisch und szenisch! Der gesamte Filmsoundtrack (und alles andere) ist so kreativ und neu, drängt sich aber nicht in den Vordergrund, sondern unterstreicht, kommentiert das Geschehen - und schön anzuhören ist es auch noch. Den Titelsong krieg ich gar nicht mehr aus dem Kopf. Und eine solch suggestive und androgyne Altstimme habe ich glaub ich noch nie gehört! Dazu eine Diva, schön und geheimnisvoll, wie Garbo, Leander und Dietrich und doch absolut modern.
Filmmusik at it´s best!
Oh ja! Es erinnert mich auch total an die DIETRICH!
.
Neu! Die Revuen von damals auch so. Perfekt aber ohne Emotion. Gesang; auch sehr gleichmässig langweilig
Dieses Lied und die Filmszenen gehören zum besten, das ich je gesehen habe: Das Lied baut eine unglaubliche Spannung auf, es ist gleichsam herrlich düster und süß melancholisch. Eine großartige Komposition, sehr emotional auch sehr dynamisch durch den tollen Rhythmus und das Schlagzeug Solo. Die Filmszene ist unfassbar gut gestaltet: wie das Publikum in dem Tanzlokal langsam zu einer Einheit verschmilzt im hypnotischen Rhythmus des Liedes und genau wie der Zuschauer so stark angezogen wird von der Melodie. Wie der Zuschauer ist das Publikum in der Szene fasziniert von der Musik. Wenn das Lied dann beendet ist, geht die Filmhandlung weiter , aber dieses wunderbare Element bleibt für sich alleine strahlend als bleibender Eindruck bestehen!!!!. Cinematographisch einfach der Wahnsinn, ich hatte Gänsehaut am ganzen Körper als ich diese Filmszene genießen durfte. Ein wirklicher Stern am Filmhimmel!
Absolut konform, Susy. Sehr gut beschrieben 👍
danke :)
Diese roboterhaften Bewegungen und dieser ständige seitliche Blick mit weit aufgerissenen Augen ins Publikum der Sängerin erinnerten mich an Sternstunden des filmischen Expressionismus. Grandios. Aber der Film an sich hat sehr viele Momente, die es sich anzuschauen mehr als nur lohnen würde, auch für das US-Publikum äußerst interessant (auf dessen Rezensionen ich am gespanntesten warte). Wenn das die Zukunft Deutscher Serien sein soll: mehr davon, auch gerne noch weiter in die deutsche Vergangenheit- aber bitte nach der Dritten Staffel eine Vierte!!
Das kann man nicht besser sagen,mein intro für Helloween
Danke! ich auch..
Impressive song! Pressing the "Replay"- button since 2 hours...you know the feeling?
Dafür zahle ich gerne meine Gebühren. Pro Jahr eine Serie von dem Format und alles wäre gut!
Wie wahr
Ganz meine Meinung 👌🏼
Schon was dran, aber ohne Sky wäre die Serie so nicht gedreht worden. ;-)
Kommt, alle 20 Jahre!
ARD One jeden Mittwoch ab 22.oo uhr
Wenn das Ding nicht in die Filmgeschichte eingeht will ich " Harald die Butterstulle " heissen. Wir können es doch, es gibt ein Leben nach Tatort und Komödiantenstadel
den GRIMME Preis hat es schon mal "www.spiegel.de/kultur/tv/grimme-preis-2018-fuer-dark-babylon-berlin-und-4-blocks-a-1197843.html"
Hallo Harald du Butterstulle
Old Wynstone genau. Wir können es besser und hier sieht und hört man es. Und unsere Schauspieler dürfen zeigen was sie drauf haben. Mehr als nur Tatort, Komoedianstadel und Traumschiff. Obwohl Lars Eidinger im Tatort super war.
Ich möchte mehr von solchen deutschen Serien wie Babylon Berlin und Dark sehen.
Es gibt mehr Perlen des deutschen Fernsehen. Ich empfehle z.b. 4blocks, der tatortreiniger und charité
Harald die Butterstulle ist aber trotzdem ein ziiieemlich epischer Name, findest du nicht?
I enjoed the series so much! What a wonderful cast, script, atmosphere! I have learnt more about Veymar period of Germany
Greetings from Moscow!
Liebe Grüße nach Russland. Oh, was habt ihr leiden müssen.
This is hypnotic. When the high hat and the keys start, I felt this was going to be special. The crowd followed Svetlana as if she had them under her spell. I haven’t progressed past this part of the series, as I’ve been watching this scene relentlessly, almost as if I were just as spellbound. But there is one thing I can’t stop wondering. What if Svetlana could have been played by a young David Bowie?
@Simon McCreath “Babylon Berlin” is stellar! The series cost €40 million to produce and it shows. It is beautifully shot and the choreography is amazing!
Regards,
Bill
Or Annie Lennox
I've found that series recently and the music overwhelmed me :)... it follows me all the time even though I do not understand much German. The series is just great, the viewer may be taken back in time to the inter-war period. Just marvelous. Greetings from Poland!
Liebe Grüße nach Polen.
They always find a way to make the credits song sound new and appropriate for the current episode that just finished.
After Dark, Germany have produced an another marvel.
Brilliant show and soundtrack. So fresh and smart, with a lot of talented actors, good writing and wonderful imagery. A must see film shure
Diese Szene ist einfach grandios. Der langsame, aber gleich bleibende Takt des Schlagzeuges, gepaart mit den Violinen und der Gitarre(?). Genauso wie der Zuschauer, der erst abwesend wirkt, aber komplett von ihr eingefangen wird, so fühle und genieße ich diese Serie...
Der letzte Abgesang und das genießen des freien Nachtlebens, des Willens, des Ausbruch aus dem gesellschaftlichen Korsett. Dies zeigt sich nicht nur in dem Erscheinungsbild der Frauen und deren selbstbewussten Tanz, sondern auch in dem losgelösten Takt des Schlagzeugs.
Ein letztes Mal das genießen des Lebens, bevor die braune Welle komplett über diese Menschen hinüberschwappte und diese Generation zu einer der verlorenen macht.
CKMS23491 das sind weder Gitarren noch Violinen. Schlagzeug Klavier Oboe Trompeten Klarinetten.
Was hier ein bisschen ähnlich klingt wie eine Gitarre ist ein Banjo.
Perfekt ausgedrückt
Ja und dann, was für eine Katastrophe.
An amazing show. High quality. And yet, I've discovered it just a few days ago! Too bad that it hasn't been promoted properly and widely.
I continue my journey through the Weimar Republic specifically Berlin by reading every author who writes about this period. I am entranced by the drama, the intrigue, the descent into the hell that followed. Being of German ancestry I also feel I need to understand how an entire country could be steered into the depravity of the 40's. This song and the characters are the most evocative presentations I have witnessed in a long time. And help me better understand the German psyche of the period. Stunning.
Could you please recommend me something to read or to watch? I've bought those two famous books Berlin-Alexanderplatz and Goodbye Berlin (haven't read them yet). Those two and the movies based on them are the only ones I know
@@omg9261 Rather than titles I can recommend several authors. Eric Ambler, Rudiger Barth, Howard Blum, David Downing, Dan Fesperman, Ken Follett, Alan Furst. I also recommend you go to Goodreads where you will find other recommendations. There you can also become my "Friend" and peruse my reading list of books I've finished reading. Have fun.

It's just a dream
The mere chasing after the wind
Who knows exactly?
The clock on your wall
It's filled with sand
Put your hand in mine
And let's be forever
You make your choice now
And throw ourselves between happiness and agony
But I can forgive you
You are so close to death
And yet your eyes are so clear
Know me, I am ready
And look for immortality for me
It's just a dream
The mere chasing after the wind
Who knows exactly?
The clock on your wall
It's filled with sand
Put your hand in mine
And let's be forever
You make your choice now
And throw ourselves between happiness and agony
But I can forgive you
You are so close to death
And yet your eyes are so clear
Know me
I'm ready
And look for immortality for me
The translation is good. 👍 But more accurate is "... and look for immortality WITH YOU" instead of "for me". ☺️
Die Version aus der Serie - wo das Publikum mitsingt - ist allerdings noch besser, dass hat noch mal deutlich mehr Gänsehautfaktor.
Es ist alles so furchtbar und schrullig.
Finde ich auch. Gibt es nun aber auch hier: th-cam.com/video/vdZ8EVtzi8A/w-d-xo.html
Irgendwas stimmt dort aber mit der Geschwindigkeit nicht. Das ist ja fast schon "hektisch". Ich hab es für mich selbst auch aus der Mediathek extrahiert.
ja, das ist mir auch direkt aufgefallen. Habe beide "Versionen" mal zeitgleich abgespielt. Die Version aus dem Film ist schneller. Schade eigentlich. Werde wohl dann auch -wie du- das aus der Mediathek nehmen.

Well Germany in the 20's was quite liberal and accepting.. until it wasn't. This clip shows exactly how open life was... boobie alert... and more... didn't matter who you wanted to be with..only that you had the passion to try..
If you look at the election results Germany was very polarised Left-Right. Berlin was liberal yes.
