[PsyMariposa]

Nina Hagen ist superrr... a voice/voc

al artist

[moonglum125]

The memories.....



[Alessi1911]

I think somebody said this before on here, but she looks like a member of Ziggy's band that is singing the song and telling the story of it. So well done!!

[Daarkani]

I love this woman!! ^^

[igalflint]

she's doing a tribute to david bowie! an original artist and irreverant like her! i love them both.

[renanhansch]

pokemon



[jonneyd]

Love this

[jonneyd]

Lady gaga style is copy from nyc club kid

[jommygloss]

does everyone become aware of the hymelick manu ver?

[danpfd]

Please don't even mention Lady Gag Gag with the great Nina Hagen in the same sentence!!

[fpbvos]

@danpfd Paradox.

[NOMADdaf]

@danpfd Not a current fan of either but Gaga sells more in a year than hagen has in her entire life. Loved Nina prior to 1978.

[danpfd]

@NOMADdaf All that does is show the sad state of music today and the mass comercialized culture!

[20Freddie12]

@NOMADdaf So does a shitty "artist" like Kanye West... What's your point?

[Sordidlives1973]

@danpfd

Gaga is also great. You're simply not able to see the greatness yet, a lot of people are.

[SunbeltRyders]

WTF WAS THAT.

[speakone]

i love her style

[TsukiKomodo]

LOVE NINA HAGEN

[ducessaristocat]

lady gaga is a cheap copycat,even amy winehouse copyed the black combed hair from nina(hold me video 89).nina hagen is really a great artist not a manufactured bitch!i prefer Bowie s version but her cover is really great too

[igalflint]

@ducessaristocat

yes!

[TheEXpothead]

@BedroomFromDublin11 I'm not the one who's embarrassing myself :). check the mirror and find your answer.

[TheEXpothead]

@BedroomFromDublin11 your comment is removed so, I guess yr the retard not being able to stand up for what u said lol.

[TheEXpothead]

amazing voice? sounds like she got throat cancer but. I'm not the one to say that just an opinion.

[Gore666XXX]

¿Lady Gaga?, ¿quién carambas es ese producto de consumo masivo?

[SuperNomm]

Nina hagen..... excelente musica.

[AdamTeAwanui]

@LadyAnkara Jealous of Lady Gaga? I am jealous of Nina Hagen. Now that is true talent, originality, genius. Lady Gaga is a great singer, no doubt. But I question her artistic integrity. Too contrived for me.

[RoPiDe]

this is even worst that bauhaus's version

[madsketcher]

@mostlywatching Hmm. You seem completely confused about her, but that is understandable. "Trying" has nothing to do with personal integrity. Try not to think.

[bergving]

One of the all time GREATS :) :)

Thanks for posting :)

[aluddite1]

@mostlywatching welcome 2 ur <3 affair w/ Nina!. anythhing honest? it's ALL honest. new york, new york is sublime. listen 2 lyrics. observe her range - it's amazing! she could've become an opera diva. she opted for sharing her gift in a different, unique way. in 82 she performed in SF. knowing her work - it was the 1st time I saw her perform. went backstage (replete w/ mowhawk, leather, make up, black nails) 2 meet her. she was sweet and NOT that stage persona... - peace

[Ali75528]

The thing about her is her look - like a lot of stars and idols, its a lot down to the look.

If she hadnt of looked the part, she would have been laughed at and booed off stage.

Going out on a limb like this requires the look - or else they get slaughtered.

Thats the reality.

[gogoshka2010]

This make me high,so high!!!

[LEWFROST2]

nina needs a COUGH drop:)

[franckmilo62]

what a mouth !

Nina je t'aime

[9buddyb9]

Nina is authentic! Love her!

[GroovyGuitar02]

1:25 sounds like fucking led zeppelin .

haven't listened to her for ages . Missed that chick .

[GroovyGuitar02]

@GroovyGuitar02 (and if it sounds a bit zeppelinesque , that's awesome)

[suddhmtkd]

BOWIE RULES

[karenaudreytodd]

I was obsessed with Maria Callas as a Child, she was THE Diva of opera, nobody compared.

And then I heard Nina doing Naturetane, and my World forever changed, suddenly everything else sucked...

[thegonzowow]

Nina Hagen, Lena Lovich, Siouxsie, Peter Murphy, Sid vicious (in its own way), Andrew Eldritch, Robert Smith, Bowie, evin Billy Idol are timeless singers that marked my generation and trully gave life to Punk, leading away from mainstream artists, these were trully talented singers and above all performers.

[bogaten36]

God this woman is the epitome of the image of early 80's punk. She looks so PRETTY! And damn she can scream her head off! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheDemoarchive]

Wahnsinn, amazing!

[nycbrian]

God, I love you Nina Hagen.

[bogaten36]

astonishing!

This woman is the queen of punk and she made me wanna watch her 20 times the night I discovered she even existed. SO WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!! I LOVE YOU NINA! YOU ARE MY HERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE IS NOBODY LIKE THIS WOMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[polistyrenejassband]

suprised



[FredericaBimble]

All of you kids fighting who know nothing about Nina Hagen, let me educate you. Nina is known as one of the "mothers of punk" - along with Siouxsie Sioux. David Bowie respected her and that is why she is doing his song. Sid Vicious as well AND he did his version of "My Way" AFTER hearing hers. She isn't for you kids who don't have the refined ear. Those who can get down with punk one minute and then listen to Wagner the next are the sorts of people who love her. She is a true great.

[arturoewallis]

@FredericaBimble ..........Right on the nose..!!, Especially the line about the transition from Wagner to Punk.Perfectly put.

[hellchild65]

@FredericaBimble agreed, people need to get over the fact that, if they dont like something, it isnt horrible or bad. its just not for them. im not into Nina, but i give her loads of respect for her contributions to music

[jimm2224]

@FredericaBimble HELL YEAH! Very well said.

[vazquez59f]

Her voice is amazing!!!! the best of her time.



[Ojoe2010]

She even manages to vibrate her voice exactly like Bowie. Is there anything her voice can´t do?!?!?!

amazing!

[LestatandBerial]

She definatly gives a different sound to the song.

[21love4ever]

No fluoride damage on her teeth ;)

[pkarlicek]

kulwa to je verze! moje oblíbená Nina Hagen

[desamator11]

i like this version of this song,it fucking kicks!!

[gijsbert99]

love you nina

[gijsbert99]

love you nina

[SpazzyLazzy]

Yes. ive seen her live twice, and each time, when she comes onstage I freeze in place, she is absolutley mezmerizing.. an incredible voice

[Jesteria78]

Well, Nina Hagen is punk and Lady Gaga is a plastic barbie for sale. I always like Nina Hagen. And to be honest, I think she is one of the most attractive women on the universe.

[Clariccy]

@Jesteria78  Keep that generic shit off Nina vids

[Jesteria78]

@Clariccy Burps. NO!

[Antichrist2000]

Bot my favorite cover, but I liked what she added to the song in parts.

[italianmare]

my poor, poor ears........i'm crawling back under my rock with my david bowie records.

[infowazz]

i am floored by her, i can't stop watching her videos!!!! she inspired everybody, she is the one. everytime i watch her it reminds me of multiple US "artists" like Pink or Gaga. but music is all about copying.

black blues inspired rock n roll. people like Buddy Guy never got the respect they deserve. same as Nina. she is an original.

[FredericaBimble]

@infowazz - Pink wouldn't know who she is but Gaga may know of her.

[blurabbit147147]

IMHO, do not cast pearls before SWINE. if people don't /(understand / feel / take in)/ the brilliance of Nina Hagen then pity them. and ignore them. they are sad, sad creatures. :'(

[padrerasputin]

in italy she's not very famous... but i like her

[TharSaturn]

One of the most amazing covers of Ziggy Stardust, Nina is such a great artist, I wish I could see this nowadays...

[10apentecost]

@kizza1960 shes the mother of punk go fuck yourself....your statement would mean you will have to shoot tens of millions...nina makes me hard

[kizza1960]

@10apentecost Tens of millions you say, huh? She raped David Bowie's best song there, and I died alittle inside of me when I heard her cover version of it, so I don't want anything better for people who enjoy her music. It sounds like she is possesed by Lucifer, while David Bowie is possesed by a alien from outer space, of awesomeness and winning.

[spinalcord89]

@kizza1960 Take a grammar class. And then get a crow bar for me so I can open your head.

[kizza1960]

@spinalcord89 I would so gouge out your eyes, and scull fuck you, you stupid moron.

[kamrade1]

@wotasod: "give her some Ritalin PLEASE"

she does give the impression there's something she just can't stand about this place, wherever Maybe not 1985 Ecstasy LA though

[technocrash09]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!

[gullah7771]

nina hagen ist die geilste frau aller zeiten

[doitbabyfactory]

Bowie must have been honoured.........10 points

[SadisticRozez]

What the hell was that? Wow yep definitely one of those dang spiders from mars lol. David Bowie is amazing, a total sexy music god ^_^ Dont fix what isn't broken

[yeahcatyeah]

@SadisticRozez Are you fucking retarded or do you not understand the point of covering a song

[wotasod]

give her some ritalin PLEASE

[riverbig8]

Lady Gaga... No matter how hard you try, you will never reach the ethereal heights of genuine eccentricity of this God-given gift.

[Clariccy]

@riverbig8 Keep that generic shit off Nina vids

[smilelikeUmeanit90]

@riverbig8 EXACTLY !!! spot on!!!

[Sirpijote]

@riverbig8 porque meter aqui a lady falla.......

[LadyAnkara]

@riverbig8 YOU JEALOUS. YEAH. YOU JEALOUS.

[caiogaga]

[djleclown]

[adamnorten]

Beautiful!

[prittglue]

terribile ! cazzo !

[mymindourdream]

she did interprete this masterpiece her way ,it was sung during the most "heavy" punk's music time,and,even if there is no comparation with the unforgettable original of the duke,it's really a great performance anyway,***** !!!!

[Haplesshiccuper]

bla bla blaublaloablah woahwoahahahwooooaaaahhhgeeeta­irrrrrrr ahhhhhhziggypleayrtfscvbrfkm,m hiunbg68trvgbiit7yuhbnl7yui96h­b8jv3wnsb86 vighlj;k jm.THE DESTRUCTION OF A GREAT SONG, YUCK

[mamarcorde]

elle sait tout faire

[justnicknet]

The only version that could ever come close to Bowie's.

So good.

[elizabethjune15]

german is a scary fucking language.

[LucindaMorde]

I thing the song is originally by Bauhaus

[PeterSpaeter96]

@LucindaMorde

You're not talking seriously, are you?

[LucindaMorde]

@PeterSpaeter96 Yeah. The song sounds just like the one Bauhaus sang, but this version is in German.

[JackHatesJack]

@LucindaMorde Uh, this is in English, and Bauhaus was covering David Bowie. Jeez.

[LucindaMorde]

@JackHatesJack Ohhhh, ok. I didn't realy know. I've only heard it by Bauhaus. I don't listen to David Bowie.

[cervik28]

@LucindaMorde

By David Bowie

[Shine5757]

I saw her twice in 1980, simply amazing.

[justnicknet]

66 people are staunch republican catholics sitting at home masturbating to sarah palin.

[CherieO]

Simply amazing.

[Shine5757]

She is crazy and we love her for that, and what an amazing voice !!!

[thedarthflagger]

@Shine5757 she's batshit crazy and WE LOVE HER FOR THAT. then and now.

[silgomesdossantos]

Umas das melhores versões dessa música!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Maravilhos­a

[ZLUGGO]

Bowie's influence on punk must be stated.

[headbanger6661990]

were was this recorded ? place ,time

because i just finisht my time machine <3

en then do her backstage ,and enjoy the show

[PeterSpaeter96]

@headbanger6661990

If I get the writing on the poster right, it was Berlin (ICC), 5th of december 1980.

But you'll have to queue...

[headbanger6661990]

were was this recorded ? place ,time

because i just finisht my time machine <3

en then do her backstage

[tannerwaterbury]

LOL Her voice reminds me of Rita Repulse from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

[fillette71200]

ça pourra plaire ou pas, mais sans aucun doute elle est tout-à-fait spéciale et rien à voir avec ladi bla bla! si on parle de punk rock, Nina est encore ma folle préférée ;))

[588althea]

I loved here music from i was 3 years old, not evrything but a lot like the album unbehagen and lots of other songs:)

[IndecentAngel]

Love Nina and I wish her only good things.

[jazminekill]

Emilie Autumn took the look from Nina Hagen!

[rryanrreed]

I love how germans try to make an english R sound :D way over rounded. AWESOME SONG THOUGH!

[Nusoundsnow]

this is so inspiring, im gonna get to that concert even if i have to reinvent time

[fwnoula]

she is Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeerfect!!

[Gontrand00]

looks like skull kid voice lol

[DrAtmo]

it doesn´t sound nice..

[DrAtmo]

maybe to much acid or whatever??

[BeyondOrwell]

@DrAtmo

no fucking clue

[MiriamSPia]

To me, Nina Hagen and Siousie Sioux define the Goth goddess chicks...

[spookygothu]

@MiriamSPia So true they are gothdivas hail to the queens ^^

[madsketcher]

@MiriamSPia Just a lesson, but "Goth" is about submission, weakness, frailty, decay, etc... Siouxsie and Nina = not "Goth"

[pdlost991]

@madsketcher

i see your point and Siouxsie and the Banshees may not fit into the def. of goth but they are credited with help starting the goth scene that came about in the late 70's. I mean even the Cure may not be around today since they were supposedly a different band until Smith hear them perform for the first time.

As with Nina, i think a lof of German artists and art gets confused with goth, a lot of the German Expressionism cinema of the 20/30s was seen as goth, such as Lang's stuff.

[AntacidForTheMind]

No one compares to Nina Hagen. Lady Gaga is shit on the heal of Nina's boots.

[justnicknet]

@AntacidForTheMind Two totally different people. Like you couldn't compare Nina (or Gaga for the matter) to Grace Jones!

[Kakrakaa]

Awesome is an understatement.

[kaiserwilhelm]

Retarded but Bowie appropriate thus it is a good cover.

[hndsomdvl]

She's rad. Best cover ever.

[headbanger6661990]

orgasmic vocals :O

and i don't say that all the time

[adrianwsi]

ziggy play guitar !!!

[plasticdevil3]

amazing vocals...

[AniTabOngtOke]

True Punk<3

[Dokuro19]

Ziggy Stardust (as a song, I mean) is lucky to have mostly good or at least decent covers - Nina's version is my favorite, I like Bauhaus too. Thank David Bowie for original.

[gtg488w]

what a good moment in life

[BENSNOTDEAD]

genial

[dmode007]

ooh, cool. i love it when peeps put their own personal touch into covers

[SuperTruth77]

Sorry, Nina... it's four No's.

[PAULLONDEN]

C.R.A.P....with a capital C.

Even Johnny Rotten was fooled by her.

She rode the hype very well, I must admit though.

[PAULLONDEN]

@madsketcher

The fact that she went with a no no like Herman Brood , at the "high"point of her career,says it all.

[madsketcher]

@PAULLONDEN I'm not quite sure how we can define a high point in someone else's career (I would say that was more around the early-mid 80s), but that's hardly a basis to invalidate their abilities. Talent is talent; I don't care who she was fucking and I don't care if she was ever ON heroin.

[madsketcher]

@PAULLONDEN I'd also like to add: Why was Herman Brood a "no no"? Because he did heroin? Hell, if I stopped listening to every musician who did drugs my music collection would suffer and I'd be a lot less inspired. To each their own

[PAULLONDEN]

@madsketcher

No no...ofcourse not ,I'm an addict myself. Brood was a smart but talentless media manipulator.

[Shangrilala88]

jaja die gute alte Nina :)

[TheMichel118]

j'adore Nina Hagen,

[Calatafimi]

@TheMichel118

Elle aussi t'adore. :)

[pappysmp]

You make me laugh with all your conparicion: she is beter than her,,,,she is worse than the other ...ha ha ha.

I'm totally sure you dont even watched the Nina's Hagen video.....

And laugh about my bad english if yu want, you are free to do it....byeeee

[PuclikThe]

ernie from danger plug--------2010

[AzurePalmsSensation]

[whitestripes77]

I love the cymbal on her head

[annarexik]

@whitestripes77 A cymbal you sure ? I think it's a transparent records, no ?

[veryeavy]

I'm just echoing other comments I've seen but where the hell do the Lady Caca comparisons come from? That is such a ridiculously ignorant and superficial comparison - they come from two different worlds ...

[timpale]

@veryeavy Amen veryeavy..... people are just ignorant everywhere...

[BoysKeepSwingin2]

Not bad........ Nina Hagen is always CRAZY but GREAT!

[spookygothu]

Nina Hagen is a performer and singer dare not to compare with Lady Blah Blah
