German Drinking Songs

Amazon.com
This 12-track compilation includes all the drinking songs that you must know if you want to socialize effectively in Munich during October. The groups performing covers of these well-known folk and drinking songs include the Münchner Zweitracht and the Original Alpenjazz Quintett, among others, with songs like "Die Stenz'n von München," "Mir San de Wadlbeißer," and "A Flascherl Bier." The only weird thing here is that the songs, context, and mood are decidedly Bavarian--yet the groups often sing in an impeccable Hochdeutsch. No matter--all the easier to teach your friends. Put a CD in your machine, pour some beer in your stein, and have some fun with your friends. --Erik Macki

Small Price and Great Music.......2007-03-11

I purchased this as a present and he loves it. A nice music mix. If you like german band music/octoberfest music - this is the one.

Great Music in the Spirit of Oktoberfest.......2006-08-01

As manager of "The Oktoberfest Webring," I am always on the lookout for CD's of good Oktoberfest music. In this particular CD, all of the songs are played by the German Air Force Band and are taken from another CD entitled, "More German Military Marches & Polkas - Vol. II." As you might expect, most of the selections are not--strictly speaking--Oktoberfest numbers. However, they are played and sung in the light-hearted, breezy manner typical of Oktoberfest. In addition, the band and singers give top-notch performances. So, as a CD of Oktoberfest-like music, I give this product high marks. It would probably make great background music for any Oktoberfest.

The Soundtrack to Chubby Lou's Life........2005-12-20

Every Oktober (that's German for "October") Chubby Lou throws his annual Oktoberfest celebration. It's quite well known in the south, as we go on a stint of "bier trinken" (that's german for drinking beer). Seeing Chubby Lou in his Lederhosen is quite possibly the greatest thing ever, it's more memorable than your first born child. His stomach sticks out and he doesn't care, he dances the night away with his chalice full of beer. Everyone makes it out, the whole sizzle chest crew (big frank, cheese grits and lupus fury) we all have superior dancing skills than anyone attending the party. Chubby Lou loves oktoberfest so much that we have to tell him that it's over, otherwise he won't stop celebrating, he once celebrated 3 months straight and lost his job, got evicted, and his car was repocessed, we all had good laughs after that. Chubby Lous mom holds down the cooking, nothing but schnitzel, bratwurst and sauerkraut, pommes frites (that's german for french fries) all night long, she loves it. The track that really puts the party in 6th gear is " Komm Und Tanz" we played this song and danced for 3 hours, the police were called to break the famous shin-dig up, but they always end up joining the party, who can resist fine ladies, german beer, and non stop polka tanzen (that's polka dancing in german). We usually round off the end of the celebration with a 6 hour tribute to Hasselhoff, and score like Robin Yount on 3-2 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th. Anyways, I hope you see now that this is a mandatory oktoberfest keep-sake.

Great CD!.......2000-08-23

This is a wonderful collection of festive German songs, great for listening to at parties, dinners, or your own Oktoberfest!

The reason why German albums sold in North America are so often compilations of beer-drinking songs such as this compilation of 14 all-time favorites from the Bavarian Beer Singers is that drinking beer is very important in Germany. Not because the beer is so good, indeed a good reason per se, but because it is a venue to socialize and enjoy the company of other people. All Germans know most if not all of these songs by heart--from "Trink, Trink, Brüderlein Trink" to "Ein Prosit der Gemütlichkeit"--and they can evoke homesickness or nostalgia. The liner notes give these instructions "How to enjoy this album":

Pour yourself a stein of beer.
Turn on the compact disc.
Sit down in a comfortable chair, take a sip of beer, close your eyes, and visualize the scene.

They've got it almost right--this is really music to sing with other people, so after you pour your beer and put the CD on--sit down with a good friend or a few to enjoy. --Erik Macki

Let's party!.......2005-11-20

What I loved about this CD when I listened to the clips was that it sounded like a party and would make my Oktoberfest sound like even more of a blast than it was. It is everything I hoped it would be - WUNDERBAR!!! Perfect background music for an Oktoberfest Party!!! Just add sauerkraut and sausages, pretzels & beer, a good travel video of Oktoberfest, some blue and white streamers and balloons, a game of Dutch Blitz, throw in some swaying at the table and some line dancing to and from the kitchen, and finish with the Chicken Dance (which you'll have to find on another CD). Oom-pa-pa good!!!!

German Drinking and Beer Garden Songs.......2005-09-17

The CD was delivered in very good condition but the delivery took longer than what was promised.

I Know Ol' Dipper Would Approve!!!.......2003-01-07

As several people I know will verify, I loooove beer, I like singing (and do it loudly and poorly), and I have a fondness for the frauleins. I also have a fairly extensive collection of German Beer Hall music and am rather pleased to have found this nicely-priced gem for the offing.

For starters, the cover contains what is surely a dead ringer for my old drinking buddy Dipper Lips. The songs have an Ol' Dipper ring to them as well--lots of hunting songs, all drinking songs, and songs of general merriment altogether. That's an ace in the hole. Another plus is the price. It's a pretty full disc and the sound quality is about on par with most of these discs (i.e., average). Crowd noise is a tad loud (you won't notice after your second stein) and (of course) the singing is all in German (I don't speak a lick, but thisn't doesn't detract from the fun--just reminds me of the days I used to spend in the German beer halls during my "fugue of discovery" when I was in my early twenties). The only real negative is the liner notes don't contain the lyrics (let alone a translation).

In spite of the few minor drawbacks, I found this collection of fun songs to be well worth the price and a great companion for lonely drinking daze. And I am still certain that's my old chum Dipper on the cover.

Best to Enjoy When Drunk.......2001-11-16

This compilation of 14 German drinking songs has lots of noise and merry-making in the background. It is obvious that the singers are having a good time, having partaken liberally in the products of the Braumeister (or so it would seem).

While the songs include all the favorites of German Kneipekriecheren (pubcrawlers), which all good Bavarians know by heart, the loud party noises makes the lyrics difficult to understand, even if you're fluent in Deutsch. My personal favorites include "Bier Hier" (misspelled in the liner notes) and "In Munich Steht ein Hofbrauhaus."

What the heck. Pour yourself a Hefe-Weisen or three and enjoy!

Live Beer Hall sound.......2001-10-21

This CD has a good mix of songs, all of which have crowd noise in the background. Good if your party is not too well attended! But the CD quality skipped a bit on my computer. Also, there were no lyrics enclosed, which disappointed me.

Excellent choices for drunken idiots to sing to. Get some culture while you get smashed!

Gift Idea.......2007-01-17

This was a gift for a man in my life who is a beer conosouir and fluent in German. I fell in love with the cover art because it was so humourous. According to him, the music is also fun and entertaining. This could make an excellent unique gift for someone, even as a joke.

Octoberfest fun.......2000-12-12

My father got this as a joke, ... I heard it and had to have it,, perfect for drinking beer in October. Just a wonderful hearty mix!

Munich, Germany and it's 1957.......2004-05-13

I was 10 years old when my parents bought this LP to play in our new Stereo Record Player. You see, my father was in the Army and my family joined him in 1957 for a three year tour of duty in Munich. This is genuine Oktoberfest Music to which I was exposed at that age. Many of these songs are now "corny", as I learned when I revisited Munich in Spring 2001. I love them and they bring joyous childhood memories to me. I have been looking for this "album" for many years because the original copy can no longer be played. I even looked for it in Munich back in 2001 to no avail. Thanks, Amazon for finding it for me. Maybe someone out there will enjoy at much as I did and will continue to do so.

Ich hab mein Herz in Heidelberg verloren.......2003-12-17

Hey Guys!
The translation of the title "Ich hab mein Herz in Heidelberg verloren" ist "I've lost my heart in Heidelberg" and it's not a story about Hertz experiences, it's about a man who's telling how he had fallen in love in Heidelberg. I just wanted to tell u this so you now what this song really is about. I please u to excuse my writingmistakes in this text, but I'm an original German not wearing lederhosen ;-)....PS: The song Lilly Marleen is not the best drink song,thats true but the writing with double e is correct, cause its a dialect...have fun,bye

That`s disgusting!!!.......2002-05-19

I`d like to know who in the world has compilated this ( and some other CDs of the same niveau)CD!!! It`s so full of clìches that I don`t know where to start. Yes, some of these songs are kinda folk drinking songs, others like "Der treue Husar" are rather Mardi Gràs songs, yes I know, that`s about drinking, too, but there`s a difference that would take too long to explain ( by the way , normaly there is only a shortened version sung, for who wants to sing a song in merryment about a husar who returned from war only to find his lady love has died of a fever??).
And that what hurt me most is " Lili Marleen" ( with two E!!).
This song deffinitely noone sings in Germany regularly, exspecialy when drunk!! Those, who want to buy this CD and still have relatives who where in the 2nd world war, should ask them about this song. Does the whole world still believe that all the Germans in the world wear Lederhosen and a drooping mustache??
By the way, whoever wants to hear a sample of German sung in a dialect that I would call "thoroughly drunk" is right to buy this crap. But do me a favour, next time you see one of the homeless on the streets, buy him and yourself a bottle of cheap strong spirits, and share some good old German drinking songs!!

Greatest Album to Come from Germany in the last 50 years!.......2000-10-30

These are the GREATEST German beer songs ever! What ingenuity, what novelty! The lyrics of "Ich Hab Mein Herz In Heidelberg Verloren" astounded me, my literal translation of this song title is "I have my Hertz In Heidelberg, Darling" and it is all about a gentleman who walks into a bar and orders a beer, bemoaning his fate to be stuck with a Hertz Sales Receptionist from Heidelberg. Ah, the sweet sorrow of it all. These songs are drunk best with beer. So have your bartender pull you a tall Pilsner while you sit back and enjoy the bittersweet nostalgia of these great german songs.

Great Oktoberfest Music!!!.......2006-05-05

As manager of "The Oktoberfest Webring," I am always on the lookout for good Oktoberfest music. This CD is imported from Germany and features a real Oktoberfest oom-pah band playing real Oktoberfest music. There is no rowdy singing or distracting party noise--just straight instrumental music. I very much enjoyed it!
