Odd Danish Song Titles

Monday, 4. August 2008, 04:11:00

Sometimes bands and singers come up with some really odd song titles. I collected some of the more weird Danish ones in this post. I translated the ones that weren't already in English - the translation is written in italic.

Alexanderband - Endelig død ~ Finally Dead
Alexanderband - Super Jehova
Alexanderband - Hamsterhjørnet ~ The Hamstercorner

pupil - Schæferhund (i sommerkjole) ~ German dog (in summerdress)

Ib Grønbech - Hvorfor må jeg Ikke få Beatleshår ~ Why can't I have Beatles hair

Red Warszawa - Børn er dumme og grimme ~ Children are stupid and ugly
Red Warszawa - Pludselig får du cirkelspark af folk du ikke kender ~ Suddenly you get a circle kick from someone you don't know

Dan Turèll - Dagens Disney evangelium ~ Disney Gospel of the Day

DAD - It’sWhenIt’sWrongI’tsRight
DAD - Naked (But still stripping)

Magtens Korridorer - Pisser på plakaten ~ Pissing on the Poster

Mew - Saviours of Jazz Ballet (Fear me, December)
Mew - The Seething Rain Weeps for You (Uda Pruda)

Juncker - Kongen af Kartoffelvand ~ The king of Potatoe Water

Alexanderband - Hamsterhjørnet ~ The Hamstercorner

is this one about Mart?

I guess this post confirms what we already knew - Tilla is the only Dane that isn't odd.

It must be something to do with being a kitty.

Is Tilla sitting on the piano that Mik dropped on her in that picture?

@ Darko ~ I haven't actually heard the song, but who knows. Maybe Mart is famous enough to have his own song.

@ Moe ~

Thanks - for thinking I'm not odd.

Yes, I gotted the piano fixed to improve my singing. It looks good, right?

Moesring # 4. August 2008, 04:22

How many songs can Tilla sing?

"German dog in summer dress"

@ Moe ~ I can sing a lot of songs!

if you're happy and you know it, clap your hands! *clap clap*

Oh, you meant from the above list? About half of them.

@ Carol

@ Kimmie ~ I keep wondering what the heck they were thinking!

Moesring # 4. August 2008, 06:34

Actually, I meant "General songs" rather than songs on the list.

If you can sing half of the songs on the list, I guess that is quite impressive. I expect they all have nonsensical lyrics.

You enjoying your singing there Tils?

I've noticed you're more likely to listen to something with k weirdish name just to listen for interests sake..
In the South African afrikaans music scene I've noticed more cursing and some sexual innuendo thus making people want to listen to the 'shocking material.'

When I was a kid, Pink Floyd was banned for being too extreme. Chris deBerg's Spanish Train and Other Stories was banned for being too controversial. These were the guy's pushing the envelope back then. In the fifties, Elvis was banned in some places. I'm sure even Ludwig von Beithoven was considered controversial in his day.

Last year or the year before, one of the songs on the Danish hitlist was a song made by three guys who were making a fun TV show. Their song was about three men, a Dane, a Swede and a Norwegian who go to Øresund to have "butt excercise".

Why are they so weird???

Is there some kind of competition to see who composes the weirdest????

Attila # 4. August 2008, 19:18

I don't know why they are weird. I think Kimmie made a post about other weird song texts too, or am I remembering it wrong?!

Bea # 4. August 2008, 21:18

I don't know... I don't visit her blog... Let's wait for her answer!

My corner?

the secret is out!

actually, some parts of Islam and Christianity frown on ALL music. The latter is less common than it was, can't comment on the first.

Moesring # 5. August 2008, 00:04

The only post of Kimmie's about weird song titles that I can think of is the one about strange titles of country music.

Is this the post you meant Tilla, or is there another post that I can't remember?

Attila # 5. August 2008, 04:02

That was excactly the post I was thinking about Moe, thank you so much!

@ Mart ~ That's absurd! I thought that was passé a long time ago.
