Pavel,

Where did those songs come from that you posted on 30 April? Are they modern or old?



Spancil Hill - Traditional Irish, unknown age. Not technically a marching song but I sing it on route marches.
Fightin' For Strangers - not a bloody clue, but some of my mates have sung it on marches.
Stenka Razin - I've sung that with some Russians on a few boats. It's an old Folk one as well.
Engiener's Hymn - Not a clue. More of a "Brauhaus" song than anything else.

I have "Panzerleid" as the ring tone on my mobile phone.

That beats me, I only have it as the song that my computer boots up to.

A funny, related story - I set "Erika" to be the theme that the school computers booted up to.

The best part is when they shut them all off, and then turn them all back on from the desk in the computer-labs and library all at once. I was an ass, I had the speakers all set to maximum volume.

And down the hall, I could hear it:
Auf der Heide blüht ein kleines Blümelein
Und das heißt: Erika.

Brilliant story Pavel. I dare you to do that with the Horst Wessel Lied the next time around!

No-one would know what the Horst Wessel was. I'm tempted to do it with the Panzerlied.

Once, I walked into a German classroom and wrote out the lyrics to Lied der Panzergrenadieren on all three blackboards during a lunch hour. I heard them singing it at one point, they thought it was an assignment from the teacher, I had to teach them the tune, it was just hideous, the damned civvie-street tune they'd applied to that!

I'll see if I can't get Horst Wessel Lied working like that on some of their systems.

I have a better story. I like to title it: "Thou shalt not use the PA system to broadcast the soundtrack to a pornographic film." That should be about as much detail as anyone needs. That was an interesting lunch hour, let it suffice to say.

1) They still don't know it was me.
2) I was a student at the time, they can't fire me! Haha!

Expel, yes, but I always think of that as a "Mandatory Vacation with Indefinate Time Limits."
