"dogshit" means "Hundescheisse" in German. Hope you're happy now.
Have a nice Halloween.

Electronica is still music, people. Say you don't like it, that's fine, but don't deny their artistry.

Yow, no kidding. I'm sitting here in my office with RP in the background, thinking "Who's got Space Invaders installed on their desktop?" and then realizing it's coming from my speakers.

Kind of refreshing actually... without the siren it would be even better.
I disagree - it really sets the atmosphere, and adds a necessary edgy discordance to the whole number. This is the second track from this album that RP's played recently, and makes a nice change from the anglo focus of most of RP's output. Mind you, I've always been a fan of German techpop, going way back to Kraftwerk...

I think this is the band which does "nur ein wort" - just one word. It might be too pop for this group, but it got a lot of airplay while I was in germany. I ended up buying that album (err CD) while I was there. It has more than a few good tunes. Heh, I just checked the album info. This is not the same band. Still good.

a total non sequitir segue- Squirrel Nut Zippers BB King Medeski, Martin & Wood 2raumwohnung Time for some Leo Kottke to keep the groove going, then follow with some Beethoven, either Ludwig or Camper...

I like the beat and the bass line in this song. BTW, I don't consider German a particularly "sexy" (for lack of a better term) sounding language (like French and Spanish), but she makes it work.

Contrarian opinion here -- I like the tune a lot, even with the Astroids siren. Nihilistic German techno-pop is usually not my favorite but I like the groove and the sound.

A nice tune for typing... helps keep up that steady typing pace that Miss Parfitt tried to beat into us. And if your boss is complaining about the siren, you have your headphones turned up much too loud!

A big DITTO to that. Holy crap. Nah, just crap. (The sirens, not the rest of the song.)

Since I can't speak or read German, I clicked on song lyrics and clicked on Translate This Page. The translation is not perfect, of course, but this seems to be a love song: Remain nich where you are How it is no matter there It is ever more beautifully here With me Stop you there not firmly All the same no matter, which does not leave you Love passes Mach the sky free There are we I and my longing after you We are already so much closer with you Come ago return Come ago return Feel you mean view give me each small piece Each atom of you Give it to me Soon you become awake All the same no matter which I then Mach Between you and me Is only a offne door There are we I and my longing after you We are already so much closer with you Come ago return Come ago return There are we I and my longing after you We are already much closer with you Hear times

Hey Bill. I was rather hoping you would close this set with your usual ' ..that was xxxxx and before that you heard xxxx...' just to find out how you pronounce this bands name. You let us all down !!
That would be "zvie-rahm-voh-nung," meaning basically "two-room apartment."

Wow, people around the world are listening to 2Raumwohnung, great. Forget about the Chinese! The days of global cultural dominance in Deutsch will come!!! Just kidding, really funny. Where did they get this song?
Posted 18 years ago by Joeeey    [ Reply ]
Proposed translation of "2raumwohnung," which looks like a classified ad category: "Two Room Dwelling" Similarly, there was once an art gallery in my hometown called "12rms2bths" or something like that.

I got it! The siren is a tribute to Falco's Der Komissar. So what does the band's name mean?

Thanks to rolf for the German. Here's my translation into English: There we are Don't stay where you are It doesn't matter what it's like there It's always prettier here Next to me Don't stick yourself over there It doesn't matter what you don't allow The fog clears So you can see Heaven (Refrain) There we are Me and my longing for you We Will soon be so much closer to you Come here Come back Do you sense my gaze Give me each small piece Every atom from you Give it to me You'll be awake enough soon It doesn't matter what I do then Between you and me Is only an open door There we are Me and my longing for you We Will soon be so much closer to you Come here Come back
