Amon Düül II - All the years round

[1899ecv]

pqp, musica do auge da minha forma fisica !!!

[Ownzo]

Wow great clip. Carnival In Babylon - my favorite Amon Duul 2 LP.

[thepompousfrenchman]

I thought it was Jon Anderson when I first heard the vocals.

[Plexpara]

you people have to say "amon düül 2" because "amon düül" is a other band.

there was 2 amon düül bands.

[thefrisquette]

Very great german band of the seventies.....Where are they now???Time they are a changin.....

[stargazermovies]

I love the song - I love the album

[SandozSaxonWilliams]

it is just wild seeing this...

[toecutterr6]

I've had a dream about that road at 1:48 but I've never seen this video until now?

[angrysamoan666]

wow, maybe you hippy LOL

[mellotrongirl]

I still tend to reach for the femme vocal version of Deutsch Nepal on the Utopia LP...about in the same way with the femme version of "I Talk To The Wind" by King Crimson.

Makes ya wonder why the folks at Liberty/U.A. didn't release Yeti, Utopia, Lemmingmania, Phallus Dei in the United States, but did Carnival, Hijack, Wolf, Tanz (Dance), etc. Same story for a lot of Man, Can, Help Yourself and other era U.A./Liberty stuff...

[angrysamoan666]

What you mean 'femme vocal'? Its still Rolf Vacher being Hitler, what femme about that?

[mellotrongirl]

The Utopia version of Deutsche Nepal. Same music as on Wolf City, just the vocals are different.

[petros1479]

GREECE LOVE THIS MUSIC!!!!

[oldbasil333]

My beloved song of this great band .From Poland With love-Amon Duul

[NeilThompson30]

I bought the Utopia album when it came out and I loved this song.

[posthumanhero]

im very confused about this 'utopia' lp......it doesn't seem to exist here in usa.........this song, however, is on 'wolf city' if memory serves me well.

[NeilThompson30]

The Utopia album wasn't released in America.

[corronco]

This song is on "Carnival in Babylon", a very good album indeed. Cheers!

[diangle]

It is on Carnival In Babylon...

[TheAltaltalt1]

@diangle. yes itwas released in 1972 it is on carnival in babylon which i bought in november 1972.

[atonsolaris]

While some people do not quite appreciate this song compared to other Amon Düül works, I personally find it powerful in a unique, emotional way.

[Lustylazy83]

Excellent!!!!

Always one of my favourites songs!!!!!

[hsmonterey67]

great, only great! 5 stars

[COGENTCOG]

German music from late 60's to mid 70's was a wonderful diamond mine.

[mikebott]

have to say it's fascinating to hear germans who love the band hold forth on ad2's place in europe's 60s... the psychoanalytic take on baader-meinhoff is something i'll be mulling over.

that said, the expressionist-style shots of renate's face in blue are gorgeous. one of the hottest women of the 60s.

[7777777mike]

Mind the drug things, the hair, the clothes and all the weird noise... ALso remember, back in the late 60s and early 70s Germany used to be a totally different place than it is now. Brings us back way to the WWII thing, coz some elderly German "citizens" called for concentration camps again when they saw the hippies. (You can watch it in old TV documentaries sometimes.)Too bad youngsters nowadays don't seem too appreciate what was achieved - "hating hippies" is a popular idea again.

[7777777mike]

I second that interpretation for SOME of their contemporaries but a lot of the Kraut/Psych/Experimental stuff was not so concerned with the historical-political dimension of that clash of generations in the first place, they rather wanted to break free from the antiquated cultural beliefs and moral phonyness of their parents.

[MeinErsterFilm]

Forget Uschi Obermaier - Renate Knaup is the one and only

[7777777mike]

AWESOMEST!!!

[breeeegs]

i love these guys

[negativeEclipse]

what great visuals

[dankton1976]

I use to wander in the forest of magical maountains in Poland near german border high on schrooms and listening to that music. Most spiritual and mystic time in my life. Thank You, Amon Duul zwei!!! Dzieki Amonie Djulu drugi!!!

[grandpascorpion]

Haunting classic

[HeidiLoveUall]

i love amon düül 2 so much ,especially the records from early 70 (vive la trance,carneval in babylon,wolf city,phallus dei!) and i guess im the only 16 year old girl who does that :) love this song but its even better with the guitar ending ;) düül = favorites

[breeeegs]

I have to suspend my deeply-ingrained prejudices towards the German people for a moment, and savor the sheer lyrical goodness of this music. So sweet sounding, and atmospheric! Hope they're not nazis...

[YairKotzer]

They are not nazis. I can gurantee you this as a

big fan of this band, and as an israeli.

[breeeegs]

well, that's definitely reassuring.

[HeidiLoveUall]

they're not nazis. check song 18 on the record "made in germany" they're making fun of hitler^^

[breeeegs]

Thats good to hear

[lantalooon]

positively, how would these people be nazis...

[PAULLONDEN]

This is the sound of a post war generation

that had too exorsise some "pretty"powerfull

demons, I can't even begin to start immagening

how it must have been to see films and docu's

about the chaos, destruction and suffering that our elders created. Düül did it the peacefull way,Baader Meinhoff did the opposit.

[breeeegs]

screw the charts, this song is awesome and will stand the test of time

[erniekelvin]

Yes, lets hope so. I remember it from the 70's

[silbertanne3]

amon düül should have centered more the part of Renate Knaup in their live shows and records (like Jefferson Airplane has been famous for Grace Slick) ... and with more appealing songs, this one is a good one. But now its too late to enter the charts with Phallus Dei or Utopia

[BaldJean]

"Utopia" actually is NOT an Amon Düül 2 record. During the recording of "Wolf City" the band split up over a quarrel. One half continued as Amon Düül 2 and recorded "Wolf City", the others formed Utopia. During the recording sessions they made peace again, which is why all members are playing on both. And one song ("Deutsch Nepal") was liked so much by all that both bands wanted to have it on their album. For commercial reasons the Utopia album was re-released under the name Amon Düül 2.

[anuday]

many hours in my room listening to them as a 19 year old, what great times.

[chargrave]

More than 30 years on I still listen to Duul as much as any other band, ancient or modern, shame about the guitar solo edit here.

[spiritfree]

This is soooooo beautiful, with sublime guitars. The vid doesn't have the amazing and lengthy guitar solo, which is one of the highlights of the album Carnival in Babylon.

[svenzap]

i love renate what a wonderful singer

[selon]

one of my absolute favorite bands.. took some time to really understand theyre work, but its amazing.
