I'm not kidding... It's in my will that this is to be played at my funeral. Nina taught me to be fierce enough to survive the hate in the world while keeping my heart open. She is a prophet of love and fire.
@@nachbarnachbarsens7433 its monday morning and i just found out about her. i have been on a 3 hour binge of her videos here on YT and i cannot sleep. this woman is beautiful, kind, warm, goofy, funny af, and charismatic all at once. its insane how complex she is
One of the rare things Germans should be proud of and sadly not many are. Its a very stubborn kind of people. They would only accept anything their government deems good and noteworthy.
With her opera background and punk rock image, doing everything her own sarcastic way, I just love it and join those others who have to shed some tears when listening to her. The most omnipotent and skillful vocalist I know…
This is pretty damn good! Nina Hagen definitely put her stamp on this! She reminds me of a crazy girlfriend you can’t bring home to your parents because they’ll never accept her but you can’t break up with her because she’s so much fun.
My Way is a long way from the original French " Comme D'Habitude" written by Claude François. It goes to show how much an original can be improved upon.
And now the end is near And so i face the final curtain My friend i'll say it clear I'll state my case of which i'm certain I've lived a life that's full I've traveled each and every highway And more, much more than this I did it my way Die welt is so kaputt Is alles schutt auf dieser erde Und jetzt wird alles gut An deiner seite gibt's keine pleite Und dann, ja dann und wann Kommt dann, dann der mann, der mann, deiner traum Und dann hangst du dich ran Dein ganzes leben Und geld ist mehr Mehr wert als ich, als du, als ich Fressen allein genugt uns nicht Auch kein blah blah Macht keinen satt In dreiser sogenannnten Der druck muss weg Sonst bleibt er da Ein ganzes leben Berlin is du tote stadt Mit stacheldraht Auf weissen zaunen Berlin ist alt und voll gewalt Wo sind sie hin, ja wo sind sie hin Die schonen traume Und dann, ja dann und wann Zuckt auf ein blitz Aus heitrem himmel In dem ganzen verein So kurz mal eben
You said "better". I rather feel like it's a kind of cover, homage to the SV version. But he was just cutting up like a naughty high school kid and she's doing it with pure TALENT. Can that lady sing...
sid recorded my way in march 78 . and the song was released in the same year before this performance . nina hagen played at the Olympia and sang my way in 1980 so maybe she got the idea .she was in london at the time of the punk scene during the late 70,s
It's not better than Sid's, it's Nina's version of it! Often quoted as the most covered song in history, you'd have a hard time finding the best version...
