Nina Hagen - Unbeschreiblich Weiblich (Live)

[@VoxGothica]

Nina Hagen - eine der letzten echten Musiklegenden Deutschlands, fantastische Sängerin, absolut authentisch und irrsinnig kreativ. Man kann von ihr als Person vielleicht halten, was man will, aber vor der Künstlerin Nina Hagen kann man nur den Hut ziehen.

Última das lendas mundial, Se você me permite ...

0:47 Awesome moment of making a big f*ck up with style! Makes me smile everytime I see this! That girl has attitude! Bloobers don't exist when you're that cool! 🙂 The timing is humour in itself and touching her nose straight afterwards is hilarious :-) Continuing the song and nailing it! yeah! 😀

[@matsminus1213]

Dieser Song ist der Beste feministische Song, der je geschrieben wurde!

[@VoxGothica]

Vor 40 Jahren!! Nina Hagen ist einfach eine Ikone.

[@renzer125]

definitely - and het song "Pank" also

[@arno-luyendijk4798]

Die beste Hexe auf'm Bühne....und ich meine das wie ein Kompliment. Ihre Beherrschung der Stimme ist einfach unbeschreiblich... inspirierende Sängerin, noch immer!

[@terryg1956]

Ich sehe sie auch immer als Hexe aber auf eine gute Weise 🥰 sie ist soooo fantastisch ich liebe diese Frau so sehr !!!!!!

[@identifiantidentifie397]

Landmark ! One of best riffs ever.

Awesome song by an awesome band. Serious musicians ahead of their time who made German music gritty and cool.

I love this song.

[@010Boba]

Great intro, fitting the song. And judged by the "look" the keyboard player added a part to the intro :-)

[@SteenEnBeen]

Oh come on. Don't turn a punk concert into a musical, specially if you have no acting skills. It's silly and that's the final verdict. Also, the keyboard riff is supposed to be played twice (at least going by the studio version), so Frau Hagen comes in early. It happens, maybe she was contemplating the acting part herself and lost her concentration.

[@Wuppie62]

Stop nagging dear Francesco Froschtest.

[@blackblossomjojo4599]

@@SteenEnBeen Nina Hagen actually was a really good actress. She did theater and movies in East Berlin und also a few movies in the west as well as some dubbing e.g. in Nightmares before Christmas where she spoke and sang Sally or in Spirited Away where she gave her voice to Yubaba/Zeniba. She also played in the Threepennyopera. The intro was meant to be funny and weird, so it is. Has nothing to do with bad acting or turning a punk concert into a musical, which would also be kinda fitting since she did theater and wanted to be an actress but the government wouldnt let her take classes, so she was teached by her mother who was a very famous actress in the east xD

[@shorts-by-eric]

Yes, the keyboard player plays the full original riff. So Nina enters four bars early into the song. But who cares?! At this time she was unbeatable wth her energy and this awesome band backing up her unique talent. This is raw power and skill combined during a period when either the vast majority of artists were overly slick or punk bands that hardly could play. Unfortunately, Nina and the band (later called Spliff) parted ways in 1979. The first album really stands out. Even today. Not one bad track. Even "Fisch im Wasser" is great 😀

[@ZAOUWV]

Top! Greetings from Holland

[@carliendubben2762]

The intro is not dumb at all: The FroschTest

[@SteenEnBeen]

You are right. It's silly, misplaced and badly performed. Not dumb ;)

[@PatrickMealeyVO]

I'm curious what they're saying in the intro though?

[@MetalHarmonie]

@@PatrickMealeyVO Nina: "I urgently need to see the doctor! ... Ah! Hello Mr. Doctor!" Doc: "Hello Ms. Hagen!" Nina: "Well, here I am again! I wanted to ask you about the results of my Froschtest" Doc: "Ms. Hagen, a big surprise! Positive!" Nina: "Ouh, what does that mean?" Doc: "Your'e pregnant!" - Following, the iconic scream

[@mild_at_heart]

I'm from Berlin and Kurt Tucholsky is one of my favourite authors. Sadly, he's so idiosyncratic that he's hard, if not impossible, to translate. He was so prolific that he created multiple pseudonyms (all very humorous, he had a *great* sense of humour) to get everything he wrote out to the public. He saw it all coming! Another German author, Erich Kästner, said "He was a short, chubby man who wanted to stop the catastrophe with a typewriter." He despaired when he realised he couldn't and either OD'd or intentionally took his own life with prescription drugs in Sweden.

[@SladeL]

Lee-Ann is Marlene Dietrich.

[@Johan_Vewero]

If you understand the German lyrics it is clear that the pacifiers she uses as earrings are proof that even Germans sometimes have a great sense of humor.

[@jasminsterzenbach3942]

She is allowed. Anyone else, maybe not. Nina, yes. The scream gives her tons of leverage.

[@JC-yy8iv]

This is a MUCH better translation. Who TF is Lee-Ann, hahaha

[@JC-yy8iv]

+J. Levi C. An interesting bit of trivia about the lube in question: the official translation from way-back-when also chose to make it rhyme (apparently believing that English speakers call her "Marleeen Dietrich"), rendering it "Marlene wasn't making that scene / Simone de Beauvoir said 'Au revoir!' "

[@JC-yy8iv]

+J. Levi C. *the line in question-- no edits in mobile!

[@SteenEnBeen]

I specifically used the term "paraphrasing", because a literal word-by-word translation results in germlisch, closely related to gibberish and equally hard to understand for native English speakers. And yes, I used Lee-Ann to match both the syllables and the rhyme. I don't think Marlene had any other specific meaning than to rhyme with Pläne.

I don't think the new "christian" Nina would sing anymore songs like this. How unfortunate.

[@paulbasile98]

She sings TV Glotzer sometimes and i listened she singing Cosma Shiva in 2013, and about the new " christian", the songs of nina always had a religious meaning

[@blackblossomjojo4599]

She sang "Unbeschreiblich Weiblich" a few years ago and stated that she still stands behind the lyrics. Even though she's organised at protestant church now, she's a free believer...

The German language should be banned

[@Iris156]

Why? Warum? Was sprechst du denn? Welke taal spreek jij dan? Do you even speak another language?

[@matildawagner5598]

Why? ...because it's difficult to learn with all the long words and that Latin in-between? I know, I live in the UK, and for the majority of British people it's just too hard to pronounce any words from a different language and keep them original when learn them, they always falling back into their 'old ways' and pronounce all the words from a different language as if they were part of the English language. The English language, which is a lazy and 'stubborn' language ...is far too easy to learn, and less pragmatic. Never met an English speaker who can [or is willing to] pronounce any other language properly. They're just too lazy or they're give-up trying to learn something new or different, but on the other hand they're bullying those who can speak more than one language. They just hate it, or is there a ambivalent reaction to it, like jealously? An inconvenient feeling that other people can do something they can't, a 'strange' feeling to something they would never openly commit to because ...out of shame? ...instead they're hiding it and attack those 'foreigners'. Their behaviour towards foreign languages is turning into xenophobia or even racism, their spectrum of hate is always wide and open, regarding to foreigners in their own country. But, as soon they leave their Island, they expect that the rest of the world should and need to bow down and speak 'their' language, wherever they go, they will not adapt or even refuse to accept to speak another language. I met many British in Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherland, etc., it's always the same behaviour. No attempt to adapt, anywhere. NONE or whatsoever, those poor little sods.
