I’m learning German and you translation has really given me additional phrases and words. Gut gemacht und danke!

I love Toto reminds me of my dad singing along, totally tone deaf :-) you illustrate how hard it is to match meanings, context between languages. I remember doing Geothe in secondary school and once the teacher translated his works it lost its flow and drama. Another great video :-)

Haha ich wollte eigentlich nur eine Übersetzung für Africa-Toto aber das ist irgendwie noch besser weil ich noch nicht so alt bin und dabei noch etwas Englisch lernen kann. Danke

Hey Dave, tolles Video! Africa gefällt mir auch, schön zu sehen bzw. hören, wie ein Muttersprachler das Lied übersetzt. Ich musste auch ab und zu mal Lieder übersetzen, und zwar an der Uni aus dem englischen ins deutsch (und ggf. ins Ungarisch, lange Geschichte). Kennst du Pulp? Ich hab früher auch 'Common People' in deutsch übersetzt, das Lied gefällt mir sehr. Würde mich freuen, die Fassung eines Muttersprachlers zu hören, wenn du Lust drauf hättest :) Viele Grüße aus Köln

Danke für deine Videos! Ich persönlich habe sehr schlechte englisch Kenntnisse und einen sehr schlechten Wortschatz, ich hoffe das hilft mir weiter😅

I'm surprised by the lack of Erwin Rommel and Afrika Korps jokes in the comments

Dankeschön, Dave! Do you know Voyce? He's a singer and he usually translates songs making German versions of popular songs, a bit like covers. Check him out and let us know what are your thoughts on his songs! His channel on youtube is "thisisvoyce"

Loved it... but I thought some of your choices could have scanned better with the actual song. Some of Till Lindemann's grammatical choices are obviously made to scab better with the song structure. Lyrics are more like poetry than speech.

I've noticed that the translation into German is quite lengthy. Is this why most German musicians prefer to sing in English?
