12:30 Henning is just showing off here, he came over the top 3 times in a row and then perfectly harmonized on the 4th one, just to let everyone know that coming over the top and making the harmony imperfect the first 3 times was obviously a choice. So good.
I have to say as a layman, respectfully, I completely disagree with the notion the two leads don’t make a great blend. I don’t know what it is but I just LOVE the way they sound harmonizing together, but I definitely understand what you mean. Love these guys!
In my opinion the best songs of AMK are the five "Proberaum Session" which means rehearsal room session: - Ausgehen - Vielleicht vielleicht - Ich geh heut nicht mehr tanzen - 3 Tage am Meer - Du bist anders Greatings from Cologne.
I love watching this video of you reviewing this song. I try and tell all my friends and they just can't grasp the depth of all the instruments and the different voices. I think it's sooo cool. So thank you for introducing me to the musical "words" that describe what they're doing... from someone that isn't a musician!
Ausgehen is really a fun original of theirs. Also Ich geh heut nicht mehr tanzen - AnnenMayKantereit. I really enjoy how you critique their covers. You pointed out intricacies I hadn't noticed before. Makes me appreciate them even more.
Henning does a great cover of Bruce Springsteen's I'M ON FIRE, Neil Young's THE NEEDLE AND THE DAMAGE DONE. ANNENMAYKANTEREIT AND THE ELECTRIC BASE PLAYER COVER COME TOGETHER, ROXANNE, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE'S CRY ME A RIVER (just Henning & Christopher Annen), AMY WINEHOUSE'S VALERIE. (A DUET with Natalie Findley) I never heard of her but she and Henning sound great 16:27 together. Some of their originals in English from 8 to 11 yrs ago while they were still street musicians are really good. LEAVIN, SOMEDAY SOMEWHERE, WAITING which is my favorite. DONT YOU SAY A WORD, YOUR DOOR (DRUMMER S. KANTEREIT IS PLAYING A KAHONE AND THEIR GUEST IS PLAYING A STEEL DRUM) IT JUST SHOWS THAT IF YOU HAVE TALENT YOU DONT HAVE TO SPEND TONS OF MONEY ON EQUIPMENT TO SOUND GREAT. JAMES (ST. JAMES INFIRMARY) from the LIVE IN BERLIN CONCERT FOOTAGEabt 7 yrs ago. IT SHOWS HOW THEY HAVE A HUGE FAN BASE IN GERMANY. IVE WATCHED 4 ORIGINAL SONGS IN GERMAN THAT WERE VERY IMPRESSIVE EVEN THOUGH I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND A WORD. AS YOU CAN SEE, HENNING IS MY NEW FAV VOCALIST. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A MUSIC FREAK. MY 1ST CONCERT WAS THE BEATLES IN Atlanta, Ga in 1965. For abt 30 yrs I would get so excited about new bands. I havent been si impressed since the 90s when Pearl Jam, StoneTemple Pilot and the band called Live (Throwing CopperCd) I dont expect you to react to every song but I really think that you will be impressed by every one of the songs I listed. .
love your reaction and analysis x It'll be great to listen to 'Lass es kreisen' there latest released original song. It is a live recording of their concert in December in Cologne and it is brilliant, a nice contrast to their album version (maybe you could react juxtaposed to both 🙂) - I've been in the crowd and it was 👌
I'm obsessed with the range of colors in Henning May's voice. AMK recently dropped a cover of "Toxic" by Brittney Spears. Unfortunately, it's not a live cover, but it still makes me forget Brittney is the Toxic OG... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uLILwwV8dtQ.html
Their musical arangements are great in their german songs even if you dont speak the language its really good arangements and a variety of styles. He is kinda like a young Joe Cocker in a weirs way :)
