der Literaturnobelpreisträger George Bernard Shaw hat gesagt: „Krieg ist ein Zustand, bei dem Menschen aufeinander schießen, die sich nicht kennen, auf Befehl von Menschen, die sich wohl kennen, aber nicht aufeinander schießen.

@andreasmuller693 beruhige dich und geh halt für "unsere Freiheit" sterben wenn du unbedingt musst, erinnere dich aber bitte an dieses Lied wenn du am Ende nach deiner Mutter schreist...

These were 3 out of the best 5 singwriters in Germany during the 60s and 70s. Absolut legends and nice down-to-earth mindests, friendly and kind but also critical and asking characters, all in all charismatic and authentic guys.

[@freemind8933]

That's brutal truth of war in these words and this makes the lyrics important to tell

[@Metal19063]

thx for watching greetings from germany...

[@arifrost.x]

Reinhard has so many great songs. I also love Narrenschiff, Zeugnistag und 51er Kapitän.

[@cap.luisfigo9401]

The song by and with Reinhardt May, relatively new, also fits in with this. "No, I won't give my sons". ♥☮

[@moniquevandoorn8347]

I know Reinhardt Mey from a song in the seventies. He sang a song translated into Dutch with the title Als de dag van toen. It was a big hit. I don’t know this song, but I love to see that everybody in the audience is singing along with every word. It is indeed a very beautiful song with impressive lyrics.

[@SikoBach]

Since I`ve watched Andreas Kummert on you tube , I can`t get enough ! He is an amazing artist! There is a lot of things on you tube, including concerts, and new singles from 2023! His voice is like no other and you feel emotion, pain and grit in every song he does! Germany grüßt euch

[@ruudvanwuyckhuise6519]

Wow, HxC, here you surprised me. A Reinhard Mey song. Reinhard Mey is a German singer/songwriter. Well let call him a "troubador" His French mothter would be proud of that. Reinhard Mey is from German / French origin. Born on 21 dec 1942. In one of his songs he says "born when the first bombs fell on Berlin". I consider him the greatest German singer/songwriter. I myself am from the Netherlands and first heard of Reingard Mey when my father , a military man stationed in Germany, brougt home an LP with Reinhard Mey songs. The whole family fell for it. Ever sice I have followed this amazing talent. I still wath him on youtube. His songs can be hilarious or deadly serious. He can write about every subject you name. From his passion for flying to his admiration for his parents, hilarious observations in daily life and of course his absolute wish for freedom and ending war forever. You know, he started as a young man singing in French when he lived in Paris. He called himself Fredic Mey than. Reinhard Mey is a big name in Germany his followers are many and they are loyal to him. But also in the Netherland he has many sincere fans. I am one of them. Thank you so much for posting this.

[@fixzeichner5592]

The song is not by Reinhard Mey. It comes from the seventies by Hannes Wader. Here the three have it in common, only singing for this concert. It was to mark Wader's 60th birthday.

Das Lied von Reinhard Mey die Kinder von Izieu geht mir am meisten ans Herz und ich glaube jeder Mensch der ein Herz in der Brust hat weint.

[@thorstenlone9207]

Definitiv einer der ehrlichsten und brutalsten und besten Anti-Kriegs-Songs die ich kenne.

[@TobiasKrasinger]

I really like your reactions. You don't just listen and sit there, you are really into the songs. You hear them, try to understand them (for example Jeanny from Falco) and you care for what is going on, even if its not in your language. I really appreciate how you do your videos. Thanks

[@swenartmann1670]

Great reaction. Greetings from Germany

[@Falk4J]

I so do appreciate you putting on screen this song! My son joined the German mountaineer battalion against my good counsel. Wicked political leaders determin where our sons and now also daughters are offered up for the cause of greed of the ruling elites abusing of our kid's heroic spirits. May God protect my son always as I pray Psalm 91 over him, and of course your sons and daughters.

[@stephanjulich8094]

I recommend every song written by Reinhard Mey.

[@rainerl.4246]

There is a saying, I am Not Sure, If it is an international one... Fighting (war) for peace is like fckng for vrgnty... The 3 singers are some of the most famous critical singer songwriters of Germany and Austria... A big round of applause for the Performance, the Message and reminding mankind of IT esp. at this chaotic time

[@Lilygirl283]

Beautiful! Thanks Inge for translating...

[@Inge_NL]

Glad I got to translate this one. Beautiful song. 😊

[@chrizy2642]

It is crazy how much better the translation from German to English is. Its very accurate.

[@cap.luisfigo9401]

"Es ist an der Zeit" is the version of Eric Bogle's No Man's Land, written and sung by Hannes Wader, which is also known under the titles The Green Fields of France and Willie McBride. It is set at the grave of a young man who died in the First World War. The narrator ponders how the soldier might have died and whether he would have recognized his "real enemy". In the refrain, he makes a connection to the present with the realization that nothing has changed. The last verse ends with the title line: "It's about time." ♥☮

[@bunnebacke100]

Das traurigste Lied ist für mich ist für mich von Reinhard Mey das Lied die Kinder von I

[@FuroTheFerret]

great song

[@justus6632]

I feel like that its true normally no one wants to go to war but another truth is that you can manipulate people to not think about it and actually say they want to go...

[@ausgerutscht1055]

What an irony - you were supported by an Stepstone commercial - "Mommy she has the job!". Can you imagine a bigger sarcasm?

[@germankitty]

This is actually a cover of "The Green Fields of France", by Eric Bugles. Hannes Wader adapted the lyrics in parts, so it's not a word-by-word translation. My favorite version is by The Corries, a Scottish folk duo. It should be available here on KZbin.

[@JaJa-eh8dp]

Listen to Georg Kreisler - Meine Freiheit, deine Freiheit next, may there is already a traslatoion

[@TheSommersonnenwende]

Did you also listen to: ,,Nein, meine Söhne geb´ ich nicht" ???? It is even so fare better than this one!

[@BirgittHGer]

Yes - Nein, meine Söhne geb ich nicht (it means : No, i don‘t give my sons) Reinhard Mey und Freunde [offizielles Video] Great, Great song With english Subtitles 🫶🙋‍♀️ I came here for Ren, but stay here for you, thank you for your great reaction! Greetings from Germany 😀

[@HypnmasterDE]

it's one of the very few cases, where the translation is better than the original. For reference: the song is originally an English one: Look for "Willie McBride" or "the fields of Flandres". Where the English original remains almost subtle and nearly harmless, every verse and especially the refrain of the German alliteration is blunt, direct and brutally honest. Astonishingly enough, the retranslation into English remains singable to the melody. At least my translation does.

Our chancellor Scholz told the people who were asking for peace that they are angels from the hell

[@jemp1965]

Scholz is a corrupt a....le, disgusting without end.

[@bogdantolj3289]

Scholz is a puppet for the warlords in NATO, negotiations are and will be the only answer for peace not arms. The Russians offered negotiations but the West always denied it. That asshole Selensky even forbid any negotiations. Scholz ist nur eine Marionette der Kriegstreiber in der NATO, Verhandlungen sind und werden immer der einzige Weg zu wahren Frieden sein, Waffenlieferungen verschlimmern das ganze nur. Russland hat atändig Verhandlungen angeboten, aber der Westen war zu arrogant um darauf einzugehen. Selensky, dieses Arschloch hat sogar Verhandlungen verboten.

[@wernerharms4833]

How comes this song is still available? Isn't it defatistic disinformation?
