The first single from OOMPH!'s new CD has caused a lot of controversy, nein? It's been boycotted and used as a learning tool in schools and censured and all that fun stuff; what's your take?

Aye, my thought is rather funny.
When I first heard it, I barely know German. SO I said IT SOUNDS LIKE GOD IS A POPSTAR. then later traslating it- Im good. xD

*Thumbs up* That's one of the beauties of ze language; it can be so close to English word-wise! :3

Personally, I'd love to see the reaction if it were to be released here. (But it'd have to be in English, of course... don't get me wrong, I have nothing against it being in English, but it's more fun in German as far as I'm concerned. X3 ) The panic wouldn't be as bad in Canada; as far as I'm aware, we're less religious here. But would it be boycotted and all that junk? On the occasion that I do listen to the radio, there never really is anything like GEIP...

I don't think it's that bad. I think most of the controversy might be because it takes the words from the Lord's Prayer and twists them around in a less then flattering manner.
But hey, I like it ^^.

They're holding a chat session on Sunday in which the group will present it; head to the official site fo more details! X3

And I'm thinking GLT will be like past albums; it's not out of reach, but not exactly in stores here, either. What you can do is got your local HMV or A&B Sound (depending on what you have in your area; those are two that I use lot) and order it; I know HMV has it as available to order now, but I'm not sure if that's just online or not. A&B Sound has Warheit oder Pflicht, but GLT as of yet...

Oh, and if it's only online and you don't have a credit card, I find going into the store and buying a gift certificate to use in place of one works great. ^^


And they're just that great, aren't they? X3

Aye, I love german.
I told one of my religious friend about it and she freaked out.
Release on America and let the fun begin.

Oddly reminds me of Mein Teil, and all the controversy it caused. I have to hear this song now!

Wow, are all of us German music fans Canadian, or what? pirate

Wow, you're right... very close! That's weird, eh?

Yes, it does; there was an English version of the song up on the official site yesterday; it should be up on YouTube soon...

I feel smart! X3

That's cool... I'd be hitching a ride first chance I got! ninja

And I'm sorry, but I'm not sure if the vid's still up on the site... it's not where it was before. sweatdrop I'm not sure, but maybe I can send it...? (Having never done that over AIM before...) It should be up on YouTube soon, though...
