As a foreign speaker you probably won't be able to hear it. Most musicians sing in High German (Standard German). He sings in “Kölsch”. A German dialect spoken in the Cologne area. Difficult to understand for other Germans.
The big special thing about BAP is that the band sang in their regional dialect - Kölsch. That was pretty new at that time, because the music was generally sung in High German. But BAP became very popular and many more bands emerged during this time who then sang in their own dialect.
that was not new. kind of 'newish' was rather this wave of 'dialect' + such kind of rock - and BAP was one of the more famous representatives of that ...
The comparison with Cette Voix is interesting. Vocally and also in composing. I assume that Wolfgang Niedecken is familiar with the work of Cette Voix. He is a great composer and extremely subtle poet. Niedecken is known in Cologne and the region as the “Cologneian Bob Dylan”.
Hi Arno! Ich habe die Jungs auf der Tour 3 mal gesehen. Auch ich habe ein ähnliches Erlebnis gehabt. Sie haben 17 Zugaben gespielt, 12 bei voller Saalbeleuchtung. Die Jungs, hatten einfach Bock zu spielen. Auch alte Stones- Kracher... Und ich hatte die Gelegenheit mich mit Niedecken zu unterhalten. Einer der klarsten Geister, die mir je im Leben begegnet sind! Er hat mich beeindruckt... Und das ist gewiß nicht leicht...
As a native German speaker from the part of Lower Saxoy were High German (Standard German) is our regional dialect -> I really struggle to understand this. I have to listen very closely and my brain tries to decipher it, while he is already on the next line. I'd say I get about 20% immediately and another 20% after some processing time 😀
Hallo my friends. Again a nice reaction. BAP is a verry good german band singing in "Kölsch" a old language spoken in Cologne, that is hard to understand, for german people as well. But they are good. Now Max, you Said that this is a Song from a time before you was born. That makes me smile. Now, I am 56 years old and my youth time, hearing music all das Long, was in the early 80s. Their was a music called "neue deutsche Welle" (new german Wave) wich was verry popular in Germany at this time. Here is a music Video from one of my favorite Actor at this time: Nena! I loved that woman, and when I say I loved her, Now 🥴 it was real Love!! OK forget this...... 😅 By the way... She was doing verry good music and one of her first Hits was this one: ua-cam.com/video/Fpu5a0Bl8eY/v-deo.htmlsi=6b73EY0qUf9WNBG- Please look and react to this Video from the years 1982. I think you can Switch on english subtitles. Go ON you lovely two!!! Many greetings from Duisburg in Germany Pl
They also made a song called Kristallnaach...It's about the Naziprogrome 1938 on jewish people and how some people in our society go right wing once again...🤓
While we're in "Kölle", of course "Wolle" shouldn't be missing: Wolfgang Petry - Wahnsinn ua-cam.com/video/yUN8BVGHR_c/v-deo.html (By the way: The audience's shouts during the chorus are: "Hölle, Hölle, Hölle, Hölle! (Hell, hell, hell, hell!)", "Gefühle, Fühle, Fühle, Fühle! (Feelings, feel, feel, feel!)", "Müll, Müll, Sondermüll! (Garbage, garbage, hazardous waste!)" These shouts have become a tradition in Germany whenever this song is played, of course supported by lots of alcohol)
Good Choice!👍 BAP from "Kölle" (dialectic Name for their Hometown Cologne). BAP always sings in "kölsch". Kölsch means their dialect, but it is also the Name of the Beer from Cologne 😋 Greets from Germany

That was my youth in Cologne... the "Stolwerck" protests in Cologne which were a part of BAP getting tracktion. The protests were about the useage of a former chocolate companies properties. Free spirited people just took over and made it a playground for artists and bands like... BAP
I guess I was 13 or 14 when my uncle took me to a concert of them back in the 80`s. I was at many festivals and concerts since but this one has still a special place in my memories.
I have heard the song quite a few times and i think this is a song most germans will recognize. But as you went through the translation, i understood the lyrics for the first time. Their regional dialect is so thick, that i don't understand anything they sing. Colone is only a one hour drive away from me and in the same state, but from the dialect and culture it is a totally different region.
As a born german I don‘t understand only the half of what BAB signs. And yes, I have some friends who are related to the Cologne roundabound. And fun is that they also have Problems to understood what Nideggen sind. IIRC this is a Cologne Dialect that only a few people speek, But anyway: It‘s a great german song 👍
Kölsch is fine for many people in the Cologne/Bonn area really. Even though the dialect changes slightly depending on what part of the area you're in. Cologne has a strong music scene in the local dialect and younger bands are picking up the baton that Bläck Föös, Höhner or BAP have carried. I think that's great.
It`s really amazing that you have found such a great "regional" German Band lie BAP, singing in a regional speach called "Kölsch" from the region in Cologne in Germany. Plaese read the lyrics. All the best from Germany. Thanks a lot you have done this! There is only passion and real life in it - no fuckin..ing show like today...
1984 I was 14 and with the invention of the walkman I listen to noting but my 2 BAP cassettes for months every day. "Von drinne noh drusse" and "Für usszeschnigge".
Hello! Thank you for reacting this old song from BAP, the band of my hometown! That`s funny! And I like that you liked it and read the lyrics!!! Greetings from Germany! 😃😉👍✌👋
I saw the guys live a total of 5 times. The boys were great on stage. After a concert, when I was still very young, I had the opportunity to talk to the lead singer. Totally authentic, with a clear mind, who also clearly grasped larger contexts and knew how to formulate his thoughts. A really smart head! They played twice in our festival hall and you could meet them eating in a pub before the concert. Really totally grounded and without any airs and graces... They are still on stage and the singer is now 73 years old. He has aged well... By the way, the concert shown here took place in a Roman amphitheater in Germany...
Had a record by BAP. Yes, an LP, not a CD. You know, that vinyl stuff. Thankfully, they included a "High German" translation of their lyrics because as a Bavarian, I really don't understand "Kölsch", which is the name of the dialect they speak in Cologne and also what they drink and dare calling it a beer.
Bad singer, poor arrangement, and medium quality rock band. If the guy wasn‘t singing in cologne dialect there was nothing unique about the song, the group, or the performance. It really did not light any spark for me.

BAP Salzgebäck & Bier Tour was my first concert, the ticket cost 15 DM and the concert lasted from 20.00 to 0.30. A great memory
