Vater unser im Himmel
Geheiligt werde Dein Name,
Dein Reich komme,
Dein Wille geschehe,
Wie im Himmel
So auch auf Erden.
Und vergib uns unsere Schuld
Und führe uns nicht in Versuchung
Sondern erlöse uns von all den Bösen

Ich geb euch Liebe
Ich geb euch Hoffnung
Doch nur zum Schein
denn die Massen wollen betrogen sein

GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Und die Show geht los!
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Der Applaus ist groß
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Ihm gehört die Welt
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Bis der Vorhang fällt

Vater unser im Himmel
Geheiligt werde die Lüge,
Mein Fleisch verkomme
Mein Wille geschehe,
Und den im Himmel
gib uns auf Erden
Und vergib uns unsere Gier
Drum führe uns jetzt in Versuchung
Und dann erlöse uns von all den Bösen

Ich geb euch Liebe
Ich geb euch Hoffnung
Doch nur zum Schein
Denn die Massen wollen betrogen sein

GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Und die Show geht los!
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Der Applaus ist groß
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Ihm gehört die Welt
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Bis der Vorhang fällt

Wir sind so glücklich
Wir lieben alle den Schein
Die Welt ist göttlich
Wir sind gemeinsam allein
Wir sind so glücklich
Drum reiht euch alle mit ein
Die Welt ist göttlich
Die Lüge wird euch befreien

GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Und die Show geht los!
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Der Applaus ist groß
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Ihm gehört die Welt
GOTT IST EIN POPSTAR
Bis der Vorhang fällt

    I think that by "God is a popstar" Oomphs didn't mean anything cynical. I guess it's a kind of irony directed at the Christian church that is now really commercialised.

    I think it's showing how Christianity is a mere fashion statement in modern times. It's almost a fashion label for some people to go to Christian things and call themselves a Christian.

    The English translation: Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come Thy will be done, On Earth as it is in Heaven, And forgive us of our guilt, And lead us not to temptation, But deliver us from evil

    I give you love, I give you hope,

    But it appears, That the masses want to be deceived.

    God is a pop star and the show goes on. God is a pop star, The applause is huge. God is a pop star, He listens to the world. God is a pop star, Until the curtain drops

    Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be the lies, My flesh deprived My will be done On Earth as it is in Heaven And forgive us of our greed And lead us now in temptation And then deliver us to all the evil

    I give you love...

    God is a pop star...

    We're so happy, We love all the The world is divine, We're alone together, We're so happy, Everyone get in line. The world is divine, The lies will set you free

    God is a popstar...

    well i'm pretty sure it's not just about christians! i guess it's about this whole stupid religion thing going on right know. people are killing each other bacuse of stupid things like that. almost everyone has a religion that he/she supports - for what?! if there wouldn't be relgions, people wouldn't kill in the game of god/allah/whoever. it's in a way ironic, because the world is praising god because of his grace and all that stuff, but in the end he (as a symbol which people take a as an apology for doing bad things) makes everything worse.

    what do religious institutions want from up? - money. same as celebrities (pop stars) what else? - attention. same as celebrities. what happens over them? - conflict (war) same as hardcore (especially soccer and hockey fans) constantly keep getting into fights after a game.

    its not really God's fault. its interpretation. how church is basically "give us money and God will forgive your sins." just so that the institution gets richer. its a simple abuse.

    This is pretty much about how some people have abused the title of being a Christian, like pastors and priests on TV (i.e. Kerney Thomas) who take money and fame in exchange for granting forgiveness. Good song.

    My Interpretation

    I'm a Christian myself, albeit an old fashioned one, and I'd have to agree with most of the people here. I think that it's about Christian denominations commercializing the Lord. I think that a lot of Christian churches make out God to be a popstar, rather than a Father and a Creator.

    My Interpretation

    I think it is just as much (if not more) about the glorification and sacralisation of celebrity. Society tends to worship celebrities nowadays and the song ironically worships the celebrities too as though they were the Christian God, even directly quoting the Lord's Prayer - a statement that we are replacing our spirituality with capitalism and shallow fandoms.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
