Eine Kleine Nachtmusik

I always had this thing for foreign languages. My friends aren't surprised to hear me make up a sentence in five languages. In fact, most of them are quite used to this. It's just my way to be. Bubba Sparxxx's quote 'How else can I say it? I don't speak no other languages!' doesn't apply to me at all. Since I was thrown in an English-speaking kindergarten as a kid, I later found keeping my eyes on the TV set was really paying off, not to mention extremely rewarding. Not only did I learn lots of English by watching TV but other languages as well. Take German for example. Pro Sieben was one of my favourite channels back in the 90s. As I kept watching two of my favourite movies in German over and over again since I had them on some old VHS tapes, I started learning more and more about this wonderful and expressive language. As times changed, so did my tastes in what concerns music. The song 'Ohne Dich' ('Without You') by Ramms+ein became one of my favourite tracks through the years. Even though I first fell in love with Mina Harker's Version/Laibach Remix of the song, I came to love the original just as much.
Ramms+ein is an impressive industrial metal band from Germany which I have yet to see come to Romania for a concert. Schiller visited our country some years ago and brought Peter Heppner along as well. Next on the list of German bands to visit us --- Ramms+ein?

Ohne Dich (Schiller Mix)(Fan-Made Video):



After previewing the post, I found it's a great idea to play the first two versions at the same time. Just lovely...
