The Subways - Rock & Roll Queen 2020 - German Version - Deutsche Version

3rd verse in German. the-subways.ln... for full release details,
Being isolated to our respective domains (Josh in France, Charlotte in Sheffield, and myself in Hertfordshire), we all decided that it'd be a fun exercise to hark back to the days of being onstage by recording a BRAND NEW VERSION of Rock & Roll Queen for our fans, given that it's exactly 15 years since its initial release. Josh recorded his drums in France, Charlotte recorded her bass guitars and backing vocals in Sheffield, and I recorded my guitars and vocals in YFE Studios in Herts, where I also compiled all the audio and mixed the song together. Being that we're reminiscing of being back onstage whilst we remain locked away during coronavirus, we also thought it'd be a fun exercise for me to sing the third verse of Rock & Roll Queen in all the languages in which I've learnt to sing it over the years.
We LOVE going out on tour, visiting new countries, and we LOVE playing to our fans in those countries -- but we love even more going back to play for those fans, and building a community of our own there. Additionally, it's very important to us that we learn as much of the languages and cultures of the different places we play as we embark on our tours, so that we can relate to our fans in their own respective language -- even if we sometimes get it wrong (which can be very funny)! Over the years, as we've done this, my books have been filling up with the various languages in which I sing the third verse of Rock & Roll Queen -- but, for the sake of my sanity, for this occasion I've whittled it down to 20. So, here you are: a brand new version of Rock & Roll Queen with the third verse sung in YOUR language! We hope you enjoy it, and that you sing along as loud as you can in your homes. We cannot wait to be back onstage and playing to all of you once again.
Lots of love, Billy, Charlotte, and Josh. xxx

Lyrics
You are the sun, you are the only one
My heart is blue, my heart is blue for you
Be my, be my, be my little rock & roll queen
You are the sun, you are the only one
You are so cool, you are so rock & roll
Be my, be my, be my little rock & roll queen
You are the sun, you are the only one
You are so cool, you are so rock & roll
Be my, be my, be my little rock & roll queen

Guys, you are cool. So Rock & Roll. And how you are dedicated to building a community makes you extra special. And recording these versions is a really great idea. Suffering from hyperacusis since a noise trauma (spinning records at clubs...) 11 years ago, I cannot attend plugged in concerts anymore. I love that you release so many acoustic versions. And if you ever do an acoustic gig again anywhere I can make it to (best Berlin or Hamburg, or well, even Gothenburg), I surely will be there. That acoustic gig at the Ramones museum in 2011 I missed, unfortunately. Stay safe & rock on. Hälsningar från Göteborg (from a German living there)

Shoulda just gotten Sportfreunde Stiller to do their version of this song in German for the German one.
