In fact, things are not so clear. I have read several comments like
"The German musician Nico sometimes performed the national anthem at concerts and dedicated it to militant Andreas Baader, leader of the Red Army Faction.[31] She included a version of "Das Lied der Deutschen" on her 1974 album The End..."
Anyway, Nico's version is really wonderful, like so many of her songs. Even in 2018.
