German Safety Dance

Hey everyone, For those of you who have never heard Bang Bang's german cover of Safety Dance I have uploaded the MP3 to my Yahoo briefcase so you can all download and listen to it. Also in the briefcase are CD covers for my Sounds Familiar release which includes the track listing. I included Nu Wir Zwei as a bonus track on the cd as well and I am still trading with members if you'd like a copy. If anyone knows German I am curious to know whether Bang Bang just translated Safety dance literally into german or whether all the lyrics are their own. If somebody could translate the lyrics that would be great. Here's the link enjoy!

I know only a little bit of German, but I can tell it's not a direct translation because where Ivan sings "Safety Dance", that's where this version has "Nur Wir Zwei". "Nur Wir Zweit" loosely translates to "only we two". My ear isn't good enough to pick out the rest of the lyrics, save for an "alles klar?" there toward the beginning... So how do I go about getting a copy of "Sounds Familiar"? E-mail me privately at steve.jackson(a)onebox.com and maybe we can work something out.

"If anyone knows German I am curious to know whether Bang Bang just translated Safety dance literally into german or whether all the lyrics are their own." If I am interpreting it correctly it seems to be a translation of Weird Als song Brady Bunch... not Safety Dance. Those crazy Germans...

place to stay?
by Divisio＠aol.com 26 Feb '02

I would like to come up to Canada and stay for the summer in lieu of a couple of shows by MWH. I was only 12 years old when the group's last album came out in '91 so, needless to say, I've never seen them live ('cept on vhs). This is truely a magnificent time and I'm very excited about the potential to see them live. My one problem is a place to stay. Now, I am a jobless college student as of right now and do not have the funds to stay in hotel after hotel all summer. If anybody on this list, in the surrounding Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, or Ottowa area wouldn't mind "hosting" me for a couple of nights, be it 2 or 3, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm clean, polite, and will not go on any further in haste of sounding like some kind of singles ad. Basically, I'm not annoying or bothersome. I'm a normal guy. E-mail me if you wouldn't mind doing so. -Collin from Savannah ps-i will sleep on floors. :-)

Is anyone else out there aware that Simple Minds (remember them?) just released a cover album which includes "All Tomorrow's Parties"? Just wanted to pass that along...

If the Hats do play live this summer, what would all of you view as a pretty funky set list for the show? I'm curious. AND, should they stick only with Hats material?? -collin from savannah
