that's seriously messed up, since it's a french musician, who is pretending to be german. and yet what.. only canadians can watch it?
in that case just search for "Helmut Fritz - ça m'énerve"

[Bit]

found it -
but for that you have to eat this version:

I've had this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFkXk7mtRlA in my head for the whole day - now I'm going to have a lesson, so I hope I'll get this out of my head in order to be able to lecture my students about statistics.

I don't have a song in my head right now. My current tune is the title theme from "Dragon Age: Origins" .

[Jan]

The "New synthesis" (1971) by Czech band "Blue effect". Jazz + rock, instrumental only, 9 minutes long, relatively complicated music. I just love this.

been reading the Spider queen series a series of books not written by R.A. Salvatore, but instead by writers he selected to a story in the Drow culture that he does so well... and creeping into my head every so often was the cure.. that is.. the band "the cure" and this song.. of course.

Gérald De Palmas - Rien à Faire Ensemble

rattling in my brain for the past two days..

Gérald De Palmas - Rien à Faire Ensemble

rattling in my brain for the past two days..

Enjoyed the music and the lead vocals.
Sadly, I was almost unable to read along, although the lyrics are alongside.

I can positively state that I won't have the 'lyrics' running through my head for the next few days.

[cowsmanaut]

I have been listening to non-english songs for a very long time, not just because my wife is French, but I've listened to songs in chinese, hindi, arabic, celtic, russian, etc. Even if I don't know the words I may enjoy the music... and if I like the song enough I jump over to babelfish and translate it Did that with a few russian songs in the past and even took a russian course at one point. Sometimes music can inspire you to learn more about the culture, and language..

[zoom]

yeah, all this is not possible to listen to in germany as bit noted. :/
Maybe I eventually take the effort and search for the music.. but it is too tedious right now!

[cowsmanaut]

are there some strict methods for preventing French music from reaching you Germans via internet? It was linflas who introduced me to Helmut Fritz actually, So on that note I can at least blame him for finding no german safe music though Gérald De Palmas was my wifes idea.. and she no longer posts here

[Sophia]

I'm not sure how much more German you can get than some guy named "Helmut Fritz." Maybe if his name was like "Otto Technopanzer Lederhosen Von Deutschland" or something, but still....

[Trantor]

And he would be born at the Oktoberfest, being fed beer instead of milk... Eh, whatever.

Oh, and what zoom was talking about: Many videos on youtube that contain copyrighted music are unwatchable if you are in Germany. The record companies here have achieved that, as they saw it as copyright violation. No more Pulse version of Comfortably Numb for me on youtube anymore, which is (yet again) the current song in my head.

sleepwalk 1968 version.. like it a bit better than the 1959 recording

[cowsmanaut]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDAXltfj8-Y&ob=av3e
for the past 3 days because it was on an episode of True blood..

[cowsmanaut]

it's time for bed.. so naturally this is in my head
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVdfTtEMqL4

[cowsmanaut]

Again I can blame Sandie for the french music.. that is except when I can blame Linflas but this one's Sandie's fault for sure..

Most of your favorites are not available here.
But for bed this one is good too:

[oh_brother]

"True Love Ways" by Buddy Holly has been in my head for days, ever since I saw those Panda Cheese ads

[cowsmanaut]

bit. Look up Zaz : "Je veux" and you'll find the song I put there. Several of the links for her music I couldn't listen in my country either... which pissed off Sandie. She can't get much of the things she should be able to access.. like her .fr website and various songs, etc.. Zaz is from the same area where Sandie grew up...

After listening to Zaz a bit I said to Sandie that she seemed like Edit Piaf to me, and it was funny because as I've now discovered, there are many who compare the two, and she's sung a few of Piaf's songs. She just has such a rich and soulfull voice.. husky at times and always full of emotion.

as for the Bed one, it was "let's go to bed" by the cure.

lastly, that song you posted is another of Sandie's favorites..

I can't get this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFM_kTAYVsU track by Everything Everything out of my head.

"Who is gonna sit on your face when I'm gone?"

[Bit]

@cows:
The song is successful in germany too.
Her voice is that good, that the simple guitar is enough for company. And - no question why people compare her to Edith Piaf!
Still - I like plenty of colors of different sounds in a song, either bombastic, or somehow magic in a way I really can't explain. I do have a sample - one radio moderator said, that song is like a fairy tale.
To me that's somehow true: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvXeUqlfxhY
Just - close your eyes - don't watch the video. That's a song for imagination - music doesn't need to be visualized everytime.
