PigeonThePilot Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 3 hours ago, Jacke said: Soldiers sing many songs and it's unfortunate (but understandable) some get attached to rather unpleasant politics. Some even get appropriated. For example, "Horst-Wessel-Lied", the pedant Party Anthem, took its melody from an Imperial German Navy song of World War 1, so good luck singing the original without being linked to its odious descendant. And much like military uniforms, they get inherited across nations, because, like "Erika", they speak to the common experience of the life of the soldier. Lale Anderson's recording of "Lili Marleen" was broadcasted by the Wehrmacht-controlled Radio Belgrade and was appreciated by all in arms on all sides who heard it. O_O ok ill be careful on singing some songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @TheSaint, this phrase brought to mind a different song from my dark past. One with quite a interesting history. 34 minutes ago, PigeonThePilot said: O_O ok ill be careful on singing some songs Songs like many human creations can be double-edge items that cut both ways. It's up to us to make sure things stay positive, because all too often there are those who will take things negative. I like "Erika". And many years ago learned a contemporary tune that unfortunately is still slightly entangled with its early history. Such is the nature of soldiers' culture.

I've seen the lyrics and it actually sounds quite nice I guess.

Kernel Kraken Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) Hüsker Dü's "Don't Want To Know If You Are Lonely". It's great all around, one of my favourite songs, and I'm trying to learn the guitar, drum, and bass parts currently for a cover. Edited February 26, 2021 by Kernel Kraken Edited to embed it.

Probably helps that I grew up a train ride from midtown Manhattan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
