Pete Doherty apologises for singing Nazi anthem

[5355vbxjbj76rvn]

His real crime is to be useless at singing - talk about tuneless.

[Alithecomedian]

Who gives a fuck, SIEG HEIL!!!! Fuck what they tell us we can say or not do and if your "Offended" then FUCK OFF HEIL FUHRER

[Birsey89]

Yes, Germans made horrible mistakes during the war. Terrible, embarassing, military and tactical mistakes. We were not secure in our supply lines. We lost our supply of oil so our tanks are not even working. Opening a second front with Russia- did we learn nothing from Napoleon!?

[revolutionary17]

if hitler was alive today he would have a stroke at what the german youth has become, god america has truely fucked the whole world.

[SSUstufRudel]

Nazi anthem?? LOL The first stanza actually translated to be Germany being over all being the number one in a German person's heart. Not conquering the world...

[LayneNoel9]

He would. haha

[Stensow]

"NAZI anthem" Wow...i love headlines.

[PimpinBassie2]

The lyrics were written in 1841, and the anthem was adopted in 1922 during the Weimar period. People saying that it is some kind of Nazi anthem are ill informed.

[TheYeoman85]

its not petes fault germany has such a shameful history!! there av thrown 1 into the mix!! ha

[Carpediem8110101]

Ha ha ha Everybody who supports germany(in sports(not in the war in east front) :P like to sing Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, Über alles in der Welt.

Nazi anthem LOL ohhhh Europe you crack me up, you dam sissy continent. Our forefathers must be turning in their graves.

[Carpediem8110101]

Boohhhhh fucking ho, Peter Doherty sings a few lyrics of the old german anthem(once sanged by proud germans as Bismarck) and the brain washed(50 years still going strong) PC germans bohhhh him, but i guess and hope that they are hippes and leftist kids. It isnt even the old nazi tune Die Fahne hoch by Horst wesselI, its only Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, Über alles in der Welt. Whats next Deutschland, a new language, hebrew, esperanto maybe? :P

Germany, grow a pair!

[Mehlwurm18]

what a beautiful melody - thanks to the austrian composer joseph haydn, composing "gott erhalte franz, den kaiser", an anthem to francis II, emperor of the holy roman empire and austria.

[KenzieBoyRfc2]

can someone explain something to me please ?

did he just sing the normal german national anthem ?

like i know the first 2 stanzas are bad so do germans miss them out normally ?

if sooo why not get a new national anthem then ?

[Lintflas]

This gives a wonderful proof for how Germans think about naziism.

Hopefully all you uneducated hypocrites out there finally begin to realise, that we hate everything that relates to the nazi era, including the first two stanzas of our beautiful anthem.

[staplerjm]

wonder if he's lying about not knowing.. if he is then wow. just wow. what. a. douchebag

[ps3sucksassballs]

@staplerjm playing stupid gets you out of anyhthing

[besserwisser666]

I believe him, he really did try to assimilate... too bad he was high when it came to history in school.

PS: The third stanza of the "Deutschlandlied" is know the official national anthem since it is far less nationalistic then the first two stanzas...

[setmeabean]

@besserwisser666 too bad he got three a's and got into oxford to read english?

[Lintflas]

@besserwisser666

Of course he knew it, but he did it just because he's an ignorant and arrogant drug addict, who lost touch with reality.

[Apoca82]

@Lintflas Oh dear, stop being that patriotic, that's ridiculous. Everybody who knows a bit 'bout Peter, who just grappled a bit with Peter, knows that was just an act of provocation. And of course he knew this stanza of the anthem is forbidden in Germany. I mean that's a lousy audience, no one of them treasures Doherty and his music, nobody knows anything about him, they are undiscerning and foolish. That was a embarrassing ... not for Peter, but for the organisers.

[Lintflas]

@Apoca82

Who are you? A ridiculous Pete Doherty fan? Your comment makes you look arrogant and ignorant. Of course many Germans (except you) have their reasons to take this serious. Maybe you could explain to me how this is patriotic?

Imagine a German who gives a concert in London, and sings "Fuck your stupid queen!" I don't think English were amused.

[Apoca82]

@Lintflas That's good: everybody is arrogant and ignorant according to you. Peter is, I am ... very argumentative ;)

I did not take this serious because I know he didn't sing this anthem with spirit of mischief! I'm not a ridiculous Doherty fan, I just know about good music, excellent poets and songwriters like he is.

And this comparison with England's Queen is dumb because you can't compare this it's is so different.

Bu I don't want to keep on discussing, that makes no sense at all.

[14981498]

actually is Das Deutschlandlied the national anthem of germany im not german so if im wrong please correct me

[GrandMasterKai]

why is the Nazi anthem wrong its the true national anthem of germany hahaha

[MrNishi]

I once saw him pissed out his head taking a shit behind a bus in Great Yarmouth about 2 years ago, he then pulled up his kecks without wiping his arse and the promptly stood in his own mess before staggering off , put me right off him after that

[TheThroney]

@MrNishi thats bullshit

[WaveneyWolf]

@MrNishi LOL

[deadmanrulez86]

It`s not the beginning of all three parts. Just from the part which is not sung anymore

Sorry for my bad english

[Hunh8tr]

haha get a life every 1 he should have shouted fuck germany that would have been funny!!!!

[TheThroney]

@Hunh8tr yeah that woulda been reall funny staring down like hundreds of pissed off germans with you and your roadies to fend them off (y)

[PoposNewGuitarChan]

he was probably just reeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaallly high

[mijpieter]

haha FOOL !

[alistairproductions]

hey sorry for anyone who was offended, do understand it was a mistake though...

[k0n14k]

hey sorry for anyone who was killed, do understand holocaust was a mistake though...

[alistairproductions]

@k0n14k that makes no sense, i meant the fact that the song was sung

[meber522]

austria started world war 1 so shut up.but sure hitler has been the worsest man ever and we hate him in germany

[cutloosebruce]

there is no such word as 'worsest' in the english dictionary my kraut mucker !! and im from scotland !!

[meber522]

ohh haha normaly my english is good so I'm sry but thanks i have learnd something new

[thorntristan]

that's bearly offensive considering they started 100% of world wars on earth and slaughtered millions of people in death camps...they're not really ones to judge

[hideXfreak]

that's rather ignorant as you're not considering the circumstances in Europe when WWI broke out.

[illosion]

why do it in the first place? he pretty much ran up on stage and yelled things like "i'm a racist red neck cunt please throw a bottle at my head"

[LauraSaysSmile]

oh they need to grow up

hes cleary not trying to offend anyone.

[koolkiddd]

come on guys, how's that offensive? Pete's a jew himself, it wasn't like he was really praising nazis. Germans are whack either way.

[JoshMufc101]

@koolkiddd

lol he aint a jew..just because he's mum was jewish doesn't make him

[newcastlevsliverpool]

his mom wasnt a jew she was catholic

[lee88614]

no he said himself hes part jewish,there are alot of catholics that are jews anyway

[newcastlevsliverpool]

its is mom were on about

[3sther]

@newcastlevsliverpool she's protestant

[newcastlevsliverpool]

oh yeh sorry not catholic i was tryin to think of that ,thanks

[ShakingAtTheKnees]

0:18 The person that uploaded the video is probably offended by "amateur footage."

[KidBk313]

oh for christ sakes. an accidental lyrical mix up and these people are getting their panties all in a twist? settle down you loons.

[DarExc]

Germans are so stupid, they try so hard not to be nazis they end up looking like nazis by persecuting everyone like this guy that doesn't know any better.

[millowitsch2000]

Oh yeah, everybody who's singing german's anthem is a nazi.... all the germans are nazis, man^^ No, come on Pete isn't a nazi he's a communist... stop beeing squares ladies and gentlemen

[raeynah]

He gave an interview stating he was not a communist but an Internationalist.

[croydonkidd1]

wats wrong with saying deutchland deutchland uber ales ?

[Dengatube]

During the Third Reich, German political propaganda altered the meaning of this verse to stir up feelings of racial superiority. They also only sung the first stanza of the song which contains this verse.

Nowadays only the third stanza of the song is the official german anthem.

[zanderzoot]

I'd have thought this talentless knob would be well used to being 'booed' whilst 'performing' on the stage.

Fucking media whore!

[raeynah]

Hilarious! English numb nuts didn't even bother to learn anything about where he was going then? It's well known that you start on the THIRD verse - thicko!

[mutzigmorzine]

Why does the fact he is English have anything to do with the situation? Americans are not exactly perfect when it comes to respectful travel.

On a recent trip to China i was shocked to see a group of American college students walking around making faces with slit eyes... Now hows that for stupid?

[raeynah]

Oh yeah americans can be extremely stupid. I heard that they wouldn't watch the movie Malcolm X cos they thought they hadn't seen the first 9.

[garage2dubstep]

yeah. sure. unlike americans. who just dont bother to learn anything. IDIOTS.

[nosaintinla]

@garage2dubstep Growing up an American, I thought the same thing. I was so eager to get out into the world of intellectuals and away from people that didn't value open-mindedness, education and knowledge. 34 countries later, I'm still trying to find that magical place. Face it, at least 80% of the world's population are morons. These idiots cannot be contained by on nation, religion, race or creed. Sorry, you dislike Americans. Like your country, about 20% of us aren't so bad.

[mutzigmorzine]

It's all about who you choose to associate yourself with, intelligent people are easy to find in most nations, you just need to look in the right places!

As for Pete Doherty, i believe he is a fantastically talented musician, you just have to watch the clip of him performing 'Fuck Forever' acoustically to appreciate this.

[Karateforlife777]

Fucking Nazi Faggot Cocksucker.. BURN IN HELL PETE..

[jjmcoates]

who cares? Uber alles, just means above everything.. Its like saying germany the great , or our great land of Germany.

I think its good that Germans have apologized for the war, but i mean its getting a little ridiculous. Stalin slaughtered just as many civilians and invaded Poland with Hitler and worked with Hitler to invade Norway and Finland. Millions died in the USSR and people still celebrate and sing commie anthems and wear commie clothes. No movies about victims of the soviets tho.

[LieutenantShweinHund]

@jjmcoates @jjmcoates . Dear jj, Hitler was unique. . There are evening classes in your local neighbourhood which you can take to learn about the Nazi doctrine. . Read more Books. . Cheers. from del-boy.

[darkspy666]

Stupid fucker. This untalented, pretentious asshole is just a total waste of space.

[englishlion100]

them germans need to get a grip you can't pertend it never happened you did it so live with it

[HeadlightMorningGlow]

@englishlion100 Yeah, but in turn people need to get over it, it was nearly 70 years ago - those Germans didn't do it. I get your meaning, but until people stop judging Germans as former Nazi's they're going to keep being sensitive about it.

[kajjagoogoo]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA doherty you fuckin loon.....

DONT MENTION THE WAR!!!
