The graffiti needs a bit of explanation. "Wir Sind Das Volk" means "We Are The People", an East German political slogan. Many signs were changed to "Wir Sind Ein Volk" ("We Are One People") upon reunification. "DDR" stood for "Deutsche Demokratische Republik" ("German Democratic Republic"), East Germany's official name. West Germany used "D" for "Deutschland". Upon reunification, all the "DDR" auto stickers became outdated.

What is this? German version of Benny Hill?

[ConstantinZelenty]

Sounds like Benny Hill, doesn't it? But no, this is a GDR propaganda song from the 60s. "Überlegung" by Elke Bitterhof und der Oktoberclub Berlin.

Enjoy and have a nice day!

Iemand enig idee hoe dit nummer heet ?

Jemand eine Idee wie die musik heißt ?

[ConstantinZelenty]

Er zijn twee nummers: De eerste is "Überlegung" van Elke Bitterhof und dem Oktoberclub Berlin, een mooie stuk DDR-propaganda. En de tweede is van Vladimir Cosma, de titel van de Louis de Funès film "L'aile ou la cuisse". Allebei oud en cool :-)

Aber warum keine englischen Untertitel?

But why no english subs?

übrigens ... ich bin auch ein Ex-DDR-Bürger. Meine Eltern hatten auch einen solchen Trabant xD

btw ... I'm a former GDR-citizen, too. My parants also had such a Trabant xD

Wat zegt hij nou op 2:56? "Herr Führer"?

[ConstantinZelenty]

Nee, hij (ik) zegt "Herr Bühre" en dat is de achternaam van de meneer die je in het beeld kan zien.

[cullyvan]

Very nice ! Is this still in Den Haag ? I want to go see it.

[ConstantinZelenty]

You are welcome to have a look at Groot Hertoginnelaan 18 in The Hague. Trabi and wall are still standing there! :-)
