Leid Und Elend

This is, without a doubt, my favourite KMFDM song. However, I believe it should say "Du bist meine Taste am Klavier". Incidently, that's my favourite stanza in the song, too. :)

By the way - glad to see the song -with- all the umlauts (¨), as many people ignore accents when writing in foreign languages.

great song

but it means that your misery is theirs too.

I'm surprised more people didn't comment about this song, it's awesome. Maybe it's because of the German language. The song's lyrics are as great at the sound of the German language in song. For me, this song is right up there with Anarchy in greatness.

Also, when I type German (which I rarely do) I don't type any accent marks because they aren't on my keyboard. A German friend of mine didn't believe me on that, but American keyboards don't have any accents on them.

You can type them on Apple keyboards, and you can set it up to allow them in Linux. Wow, delayed response. :)

Otherwise, you can put an e after the letter instead of an umlaut over it, and ß can be replaced with ss. Now let's see if you ever get this. :)

You can type accent marks on a windows keyboard, it's all just shortcuts like ALT+some number. If you google it you can find all of them.

Anyway, this is one of my favorites from Symbols

Your Boat Leaves The Port Of Our City You Travel Alone Into The Clear Night I Wish For Only Five More Minutes My True Yearning Comes With You

I Love Your Moon In My Night There Is No Day Without Your Sun You Are But The Star On My Firmament I Am The Stone And You Are The Cement

[chorus...]

You Are My Key On The Piano Everything You'd Want, I Play For You Your Sweet Wound's Sweet Juice Makes Me Very Drunk, Even Without Schnapps

[chorus] Divided Sorrow Is Half The Sorrow My Heart Is Your Heart Divided Bliss Is Half The Bliss Your Pain Is My Pain

Your Sorrow, My Misery My Sorrow, Your Misery My Misery, Your Sorrow Your Misery, My Sorrow [end chorus]

this is parallel to the lyrics above. it is not quite the same as listening to the song but all the words are there.

This song is probably about missing someone, and feeling incomplete.
