Trabant song came out in 1993., and on the same album they made Wartburg song that was in connection with first song. In Trabant song, they sing about their blue Trabant, girls they scored in that car :joce: , and at the end Trabant is eaten by pigs (as seen in one of Emir Kusturica's films :lol: )while they were playing in some village. But they used the engine to make a saw for wood (one thing that can actually be built from Trabant's engine). In second song, they mention how they lost their Trabant, so they bought Wartburg because they like crazy speeds :lol: . At the end pigs also try to eat Wartburg, but they loose their teeth. :lol: Blu Trabant (Blue Trabant): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIvJ_af639Q Varburg limuzina (Wartburg limousine): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvG7vi3bFCY I'll put more songs here later, I'll also try to translate them so everybody can understand it. :smile:[/quote]

This is poised to be Christmas number in Ireland. Just to warn you there is some strong language.

I remember very well that this was played constantly on the radio in 1986 in Belgium, it's a parody of songs like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POv-3yIPSWc but no one got the satirical meaning and it went straight to number 1. :grin:

It's one of the songs, about everyone says, that such stuff is embarrassing, shameful, horrible, etc.pp, but the funny thing is, that on parties, everyone, when he's drunken enough, sings them along with the others - and more funny is, that everyone knows the song-texts. :boidleau:
