@@sonorastar2239 Yes...that's because Slovenia was one of the countries that made up Yugoslavia. Arguing whether they are "Slovenian" or "Yugoslavian" is like arguing whether Manic Street Preachers are "Cymraeg (Welsh)" or "British".
For awile Laibach was my band, too. I was proud to have such a unique band come out of my country - Yugoslavia. At the end of the day it doesn't matter whether they are Yugoslavian or Slovenian - they are still bloody brilliant! I am really pleased they are still going on and doing so well. Saw them in London in the 80's and many people walked out of the concert. I guess people were confused by their military image and presumed they were pro fascist. But the words of their songs tell a different story....
Not even that much of a fan of Laibach or industrial music in general, but this (as well as most of the albm it was on) will forever remain as one of the greatest cover versions and comments on the power and nature of popular music.
Laibach are special for a number of reasons. not least of which is that they can make such great music, social commentary, art & have fun all, at once.
This is actually a remake "one vision" from Queen. when you check out words are exact but it's surprising how the message changes. or maybe it always was quite totalitarian but somehow nobody noticed!

ein wahrhaftes Meisterwerk.. die Art, welche Worte für die Übersetzung von Freddies Text gewählt wurden sind so grandios grandios gewählt - die Sugestivkraft der verwendeten Worte ist immer wieder interessant, wenn man das Lied jemandem vorspielt, der das nicht kennt - die dann sofort (und von Laibach beabsichtigt) Faschismusansprachen im Kopf haben - wenn man dann den Leuten erklärt, dass es eine Wort zu Wort übersetzung von Queen ist, dann sind die erst mal baff - ich mein, Queen kann man nun vieles vorwerfen (Beste Band aller Zeiten, grossartigste Bühnenpresänz etc xD), aber ganz sicher nicht, rechts im politischen Spektrum zu stehen - trotzdem macht Laibach mit dem Video und Lied ein bisschen hellsichtiger, wenn es um Faschistische Ästhetik, auch in der Unterhaltungswelt geht (Man denke nur an die Queen Videos zu Radio Gaga oder Flash) - oh und es ist einfach grandios, wie Milos, dieser eher Unscheinbare Mensch und mit dieser Mütze den Militarismus so der Lächerlichkeit preisgibt - ich liebs.
I'd bet the uninitiated would think this is some alternate timeline where Queen was founded in East Germany, West Germany or Yugoslavia and not England. Sounds kickass.
@Schwanzmajor I know every Kraftwerk and every Rammstein song, if its theft you would easily be able to give me songs that sound like copies... Mein Modell was a cover apart from that song, there isnt a song thats remotely similar.
@Schwanzmajor What a crock of shit opinion. Rammstein was something entirely new and exciting when the emerged in the mid 90s. Yeah, they had lots of influences (just like Laibach, Die Krupps and even Kraftwerk), but they were never shy of admitting that and were always able to turn those influences into entirely their own thing. And this is coming from someone who doesn't even care all that much about Rammstein or their music.

Grandios! Aber nicht jeder versteht Ironie und Anspielung. Ein Freund reagierte empört, als ich ihm den Link zum Video weiterleitete. Er hätte sich das bei mir nicht gedacht. Damit wolle er nichts zu tun haben!
"Die ganze Nacht feiern wir Einigung!" Wenn man sich die Bilder aus Berlin von Sylvester 89/90 anschaut, hat dieser Song etwas Prophetisches! Die Idioten, die auf dem Brandenburger Tor herumgeklettert sind - ein guter Geist war da nicht!
The NSK (art collective Laibach was part of) had a knack for ridiculing socialist authorities every time they attempted anything. Check out the NSK Youth Day poster scandal for the most blatant example. Besides by 1987 the economic situation was rapidly deteriorating as debt and inflation soared. Meanwhile Serbian nationalists were taking control of the Communist party while democratic opposition was developing in the other republics, centered around Nova Revija in Slovenia. IIRC this is also the year Izetbegović published his essays about the importance of Muslim faith and identity in Bosnia and so on. The authorities had much bigger fish to wrestle with than some artsy Slovene music band.
@@pontram As it's written in the description, the video was indeed 'filmed in Slovenia' (then SR Slovenia, SFR Yugoslavia). Based on the first few seconds, I'm pretty sure it was shot in Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana.
1988, sitting in the queue to get on the Londonbound M4 elevated road. Hot afternoon, windows down on my Opel Manta GTE. This playing full blast on the car's stereo. I was getting the weirdest looks from all around me. Music to Anschluss by. Priceless 🤣
I understand German and yes,it sounds great and powerful, but it's not hard to hear out the ''Slav part''...it's made to sound powerful and you can understand the lyrics but most of the time they're not grammatically correct
"Jawoll" is actually the correct spelling. "Ja voll" means something slightly different. It would be the right answer if someone would ask you if you consider Laibach to be the greatest band on earth :)

The comment section down here is a pathetic collection of predictable topoi of western cultural imaginaries of the East...and in the midst of it all is Laibach‘s playful madness dancing on the volcanoes of the short (but eventful, duh!) twentieth century...for the ignorant among you, these artists come from the land of Žižek and what they all have in common is a fucking cheeky genius! I remember purchasing their Let it be album (with Beatles covers) right before the Yugoslav wars broke out...shitty times, great art!

I'd bet the uninitiated would think this is some alternate timeline where Queen was founded in East Germany, West Germany or Yugoslavia and not England. Sounds kickass.
Ich freue mich über die künftige Herrrschaft unseren slovenischen Oberherren.
I'm flesh,I'm glut,I'm four leaf clover....Now,get me a Light Beer!
This would win Eurovision. I'm just crying with laughter. Freddy would have loved this as he never took anything too seriously.
I JUST SAID THIS TO MY GIRLFRIEND 1 MINUTE AGO!!!!
This is so brilliant.
That is awesome! Jawohl! Ein Leitbild!
Love these guys !!
Fantastic. shows up queen’s original for the bilge it is
I really like this song - Glad to see it's still on youtube! Keep rockin!
I love you, Laibach!
This band had a big influence on Rammstein. The singer said it in an interview. Just look at their symbol.
@Schwanzmajor oo shut up.. if they were talentless they wouldnt be germanys biggest metal band of all time. and one of the worlds greats.
@Schwanzmajor I know every Kraftwerk and every Rammstein song, if its theft you would easily be able to give me songs that sound like copies... Mein Modell was a cover apart from that song, there isnt a song thats remotely similar.
@Schwanzmajor What a crock of shit opinion. Rammstein was something entirely new and exciting when the emerged in the mid 90s. Yeah, they had lots of influences (just like Laibach, Die Krupps and even Kraftwerk), but they were never shy of admitting that and were always able to turn those influences into entirely their own thing.
And this is coming from someone who doesn't even care all that much about Rammstein or their music.
@@FromthisInstanceOn Du hast is Techno pop (you have to listen to these songs more attentively)
@@МихаилПетров-ь5ю Du hast overlaps many genres. But I don't agree that its most precise description is Techno or Pop.

"A light beer for the world!"
So where can I get a nsk pasport?
Grandios! Aber nicht jeder versteht Ironie und Anspielung.
Ein Freund reagierte empört, als ich ihm den Link zum Video weiterleitete.
Er hätte sich das bei mir nicht gedacht. Damit wolle er nichts zu tun haben!
Haben leider viele Leute damals nicht verstanden, dass hier Propaganda als der Blödsinn enttarnt wird, der er ist - egal aus welcher Richtung.
Es soll sogar Leute geben, die dasselbe über Kraftwerk sagen. (Es ist manchmal alles sehr kompliziert.)
"Die ganze Nacht feiern wir Einigung!" Wenn man sich die Bilder aus Berlin von Sylvester 89/90 anschaut, hat dieser Song etwas Prophetisches! Die Idioten, die auf dem Brandenburger Tor herumgeklettert sind - ein guter Geist war da nicht!
Ha ha 😆 ein deutsches Kommentar...
immer noch genial.
Art at it's best.
Stil, energija, ritam, savrseno...
.... rakija? 😇
Not Meant to Be Funny, But the Lead Singer reminds me of Sasha Boran Cohan's "Borat!" Cool Video! ☝️ 🙂
Wunderbar!!!!
This, Opus Dei and The Whistleblowers are the best songs from Laibach I ever head!
I'm stoked gonna see them perform this in Bucharest in March. It's been a while!
Slovenian genius
So good....I never even noticed the melody was vaguely familiar.
Queen who?!?! There is only LAIBACH!
With a different soundtrack this could be a famine relief video.
It's 'Gebt mir ein Leitbild' (give me an ideal/a model to follow). Not 'get me a light beer'...just sayin'.
Love the drummers in this clip! JAWOHL!
j y crois pas. cest vraiment super. je decouvre. j'adore In am so in,love with what they do
Somehow, I don't think Freddie Mercury realized what his song would sound like in German...
Heute mal nach Köln. Opus Dei Tour 2024....
They can cover pretty much anything successfuly
Best cover ever ! ❤
This is some crazy stuff... Searching for Opus Dei brought me here.
DESDE PERU, GRACIAS X SU BENDICION...
This video was shot in 1987, before the fall of the iron curtain. How was this possible?
The NSK (art collective Laibach was part of) had a knack for ridiculing socialist authorities every time they attempted anything. Check out the NSK Youth Day poster scandal for the most blatant example. Besides by 1987 the economic situation was rapidly deteriorating as debt and inflation soared. Meanwhile Serbian nationalists were taking control of the Communist party while democratic opposition was developing in the other republics, centered around Nova Revija in Slovenia. IIRC this is also the year Izetbegović published his essays about the importance of Muslim faith and identity in Bosnia and so on. The authorities had much bigger fish to wrestle with than some artsy Slovene music band.
They had a contract with the british Mute Records for their Opus Dei album. I don't think they recorded this video in the former Yugoslavia (SFRY).
Because Yugoslavia was not behind iron curtain. And 80’s in Yugoslavia were by far best music wise.
@@pontram As it's written in the description, the video was indeed 'filmed in Slovenia' (then SR Slovenia, SFR Yugoslavia). Based on the first few seconds, I'm pretty sure it was shot in Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana.
@@futuredays2471 I stand corrected 🙂
Outlandishly splendid.
If Freddie Mercury joined the Afrika Korps..
Yes 😂😂😂💪
You Sir won the Internet 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
The anthem of Mladina ;-)).
😂😂😂😂😂
still got the lp
You fall! yaaaa! YOU FALL!! I LIKE IT!
Get me a Knock! Get me a tum! GET ME! GET ME! A LIGHT BEER!!
das Schwarz und Weiß ist kein Beweiß - nicht tot - nicht rot - wir brauchen bloß - ein Leitbild für die Welt
The Wagnerian techno dance?
Still love this song.
heard this is in documentary and i was like 'no there's no way rammstein would be in a video about the fall of yugoslavia' and i was right
1988, sitting in the queue to get on the Londonbound M4 elevated road. Hot afternoon, windows down on my Opel Manta GTE. This playing full blast on the car's stereo. I was getting the weirdest looks from all around me. Music to Anschluss by. Priceless 🤣
queen sounds good here
Ich liebe dieses Lied so viel als ich jung war \m/
It is convenient to learn German by listening Laibach's songs.
Chak Ma Lau I believe their German is ungrammatical sometimes.
I understand German and yes,it sounds great and powerful, but it's not hard to hear out the ''Slav part''...it's made to sound powerful and you can understand the lyrics but most of the time they're not grammatically correct
They have a strong Eastern European accent, and yes, the grammar is off quite a bit sometimes. Definitely not the best way to learn the language.
your avatar pic made me shit my pants i thought i had a crack on my screen
Chak Ma Lau gib mir ein Leitbild
Il n'y a qu'un Laibach et Laibach est son Laibach !
Nothing calms me more than people growling "Ja voll!" in German, while behaving in a robotic manner.
Amit Raam its "jawohl" actually
It's in an dialect so it's actually 'jawoll'.
"Jawoll" is actually the correct spelling. "Ja voll" means something slightly different. It would be the right answer if someone would ask you if you consider Laibach to be the greatest band on earth :)
Jawoll. "Ja voll" when drunk.
Best cover of all time!)))
"get me a light beer".....
labshot So I'm not the only one who hears that.
***** LOL...no and it took years for me to confess that....
labshot Yup... I can't not hear it no matter how hard I try.
Robo - tetanus I know that is not the correct words to this song, but what do you hear?...

Devetnica Sv. Leopoldu Bogdanu Mandiću

Slava Ocu…
Sveti Leopolde Bogdane, koji si za svoga zemaljskoga života iskazivao nježnu ljubav prema Blaženoj Djevici Mariji, našoj dragoj Majci, i za uzvrat bio obdaren mnogim milostima, a sada si s Njom u blaženstvu, moli je da svrati svoj pogled na našu bijedu i da se prema nama uvijek pokaže milosrdnom majkom.
Slava Ocu…
Sveti Leopolde Bogdane, koji si uvijek pokazivao veliko razumijevanje za ljudske patnje i utješio mnoga skršena srca, priteci nam u pomoć. U svojoj dobroti nemoj nas napustiti, nego nas utješi i posreduj nam milost za koju te s velikim pouzdanjem molimo. Amen.

Molitva za jedinstvo kršćana
Bože, jedina prava ljubavi i savršeno jedinstvo. Ti si Svetoga Leopolda, kapucina i svećenika, ukrasio krepošću velikog milosrđa prema grešnicima i potaknuo ga da gorljivo promiče jedinstvo kršćana; daj da po njegovu zagovoru, duhom i srcem obnovljeni svima iskazujemo tvoju ljubav i puni nade radimo za jedinstvo svih vjernika. Amen.
Molitva da se isprose milosti po zagovoru sv. Leopolda
Sveti Leopolde Bogdane, Bog Te je obdario velikim milostima da uzmogneš pomagati onima koji se Tebi utječu. Evo se i ja utječem Tebi i ponizno Ti se molim: isprosi mi živu vjeru i žarku ljubav, da se predam u ruke Božje i da iz tih Božjih ruku primim pomoć u ovoj svojoj nevolji… (navesti nakane).

Oče naš… Zdravo Marijo… Slava Ocu…
Molitva za pomirenje s ljudima
Sveti Leopolde Bogdane, svoj si život darovao za pomirenje među ljudima, narodima i vjerama.

Oče naš… Zdravo Marijo… Slava Ocu…
Molitva Sv. Leopoldu za one koji su se udaljili od Boga
Isuse, Spasitelju, koji si po molitvi i primjeru Sv. Leopolda, kapucina, k sebi priveo i vratio mnoge duše, molim Te, po njegovu zagovoru privuci k svom Božanskom i Spasiteljskom Srcu i (navesti ime onoga za čije se obraćenje moli).

Molitva Sv. Leopoldu za hrvatski narod
Gospodina Isuse Kriste, Ti si ljubio svoj narod, svoju zemlju, jezik i običaje svojih ljudskih predaka. Po Tvom je primjeru Sv. Leopolda, kapucin, služeći braći ljudima u drugoj zemlji, vjerno ljubio i svoj hrvatski narod.
I ja Te, zajedno sa Sv. Leopoldom Bogdanom, molim, da narod kojemu pripadam raste i napreduje u miru i slozi s drugim narodima, da kolijevke ne budu prazne, da se ognjišta ne ugase, da se svi prognani i izbjegli vrate svojim domovima, da za svakoga bude u domovini rada, kruha, pravde, mira i sreće, te da živimo i umiremo u Tvojoj milosti, pod zaštitom Majke Marije vjerni Velikom Zavjetu svojih pradjedova.
Oče naš… Zdravo Marijo… Slava Ocu…
Molitva za duh apostolata
Sveti Leopolde, istrošio si se služeći drugima na slavu Božju i spas neumrlih duša. Danas, dok grijeh i sotona zavode svijet i duše, ukloni sablazan mnogih katolika koji se stide raditi za slavu Božju i spas duša.
Sveti Leopolde, oslobodi i mene straha, ljudskog obzira i sebičnosti, a isprosi mi od Boga apostolski žar prvih kršćana, da i ja, svojim životom, primjerom i riječju; molim i radim za dolazak boljeg svijeta i obnovu evanđeoske ljubavi i dobrote među ljudima. Amen.
The comment section down here is a pathetic collection of predictable topoi of western cultural imaginaries of the East...and in the midst of it all is Laibach‘s playful madness dancing on the volcanoes of the short (but eventful, duh!) twentieth century...for the ignorant among you, these artists come from the land of Žižek and what they all have in common is a fucking cheeky genius! I remember purchasing their Let it be album (with Beatles covers) right before the Yugoslav wars broke out...shitty times, great art!
Super!
Ja Ja Ja Ja! Give me a light beer!
i am slowene and german, this is crazy
they sing german with heavy accent more german than a casual german without accent
