how would you even describe her? she's dramatic, she's crazy, she's intense, she's theatrical. truly one of a kind. she's a beautiful gothic-opera glam-punk new-wave symphonic-metal drag-diva goddess, entirely in a league of her own.
The funny thing is that she can sing very good, she has a wide range. And she does not only do punk. I think I seen her done something within every genre almost.
And she sure did/does it "her way"...I discovered her when I was 18 and bought my first album of her in 1978 and loved it....still love it.....love her theatrics.......Queen of punk !!!
seht und hört sie euch an...einmalig, unbeschreiblich, unvergleichlisch. nina, danke das du uns all die jahre ein kreativer stern am tristen komerzhimmel warst.
When the name Nina Hagen appeared, I was in for something otherwise on this cover.....and I was not disappointed. Gosh, she is still the same vocal hurricane as in 1978!!!! Luv her.
Wie Recht sie hat. " Die Welt ist so kaputt - is alles Schutt auf dieser Erde " und dann das " und Geld ist mehr - mehr wert als Ich, als du, als Ich " und da ist noch so viel mehr drin. Tolles Lied Tolle Frau. Einer der wenigen die früh gemerkt haben wo der Weg hin geht !
Damn does this take me back!!! I remember when my parents found my Nina Hagen album back in about 1980. They were "puzzled" to say the least. You know folks, she really does have an amazing voice, she just chooses to use it "her way"
She has never lost her appeal to me. When I think of how old she must be now. I first saw her perform live when I was 17 in the 80s, she's a good bit older than me yet now she looks years younger. What sourkraut does for you :-)
The german translated with google translate: The world is so broken Is everything on this earth rubble But now everything will be fine On your side there's no bankruptcy And then, yes, and when Then comes the man or woman of your dreams And then you think you ran A whole life And money is more - money money money money - worth more than I like you, when I Eating alone is not enough for us Also, no chatter does not make enough of In this so-called country, in this so-called city The pressure has to go, otherwise, it remains as A whole life Chaos, chaos - money is more worth more than I like you, when I Eating alone is not enough for us Also, no chatter does not make enough of In this so-called country, in this so-called city The pressure has to go, otherwise, it remains as A whole life
if I remember correctly this is the second most remade song in history - do not know what is the first-.... and interpretation of Nina is the only one I have heard from the beginning to the end .... and still haunting me ... Nina you are the best, Do not know how to say....
At first I couldn't believe this was real, so I watched more video's of her. And it's true! Her voice is so low and rough it sounds very manly. I think she's really cool and interesting. Though it's not my musical preference I can't stop listening.
she is a DAMN LEGEND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im 55 grew up 99 luft, found her singing this in the late 90s tube n watched her ever since !!!! she is godess
Hi wretchful, that's right the Recording of Nina's version of My Way is from 1980 but She sang that Song on live performances in her DDR Days, but the Government in East Germany was very restrictive, she had to be careful about the Words, most of her Songs were double-meanings, that was in East Germany, the West could only hear her version for the 1st time also in 1978 in Dortmund, Germany at the Rockpalast Sessions.
Not Queen of Punk, Nina Hagen is known as The Mother of Punk. which is far superior to any other female pop stars claim. like MJ is King Of Pop Elvis is the King of Rock`N`Roll.
Nina was the first Lady that brought Fantasy and Revolution in the Music Scene. She sings her own Version of “My Way” that evolves with the Time. She perform that Song on Stage long before any other punks or wannabes tried it. She is unique and so all the followers that try to do the same or dressed like her are just pale Copies of the divine Nina Hagen.
