So what if the authors were Jewish, they were Germans who wrote a a song of hope that expressed the hope of a generation. Jews are and were German, so what, the treatment of Jews by Nazis is of no import in this instance, we all accept that the crime of genocide was terrible, but it does not now preclude that all good things must be redefined because they were of Jewish origin.Jewish or not, they were German.
The blonde singer is a work of beauty - an angel. Yet, his angelic beauty juxtapsed against his Nazi uniform is unsettling. In full uniform, he is the embodiment of Hitler youth and Aryan idealism.
"Tomorrow Belongs to Me" was written by John Kander and Fred Ebb in the style of a traditional German song, sung by the Nazi youth in the movie, to stir up patriotism for the "fatherland". It has often been mistaken for a genuine "Nazi anthem" and has led to the songwriters being accused of anti-Semitism. This would be most surprising, as they are, in fact, Jewish (This fact has not stopped openly racist and anti-Semitic rock groups, like Skrewdriver, from recording the song and performing it.
It is an interesting song - quite "nationalistic" in a pre-World War II Germany sort of way. Does anybody know who wrote "TOMORROW BELONGS TO ME"? They were Amerikanischen und Judischen!! Was danken Sie das?
It seems Kander and Ebb did their job TOO well! The Neo-Nazi rock band Skrewdriver recorded this song, and it was recently recorded by the Swedish "nationalist" rocker Saga and self styled "fascist" Italian folk singer Aufidena (Ex-Viking), obviously unaware that its composers were Jews.
As they were unaware of how the world worked in other ways too. Their ideology was predicated upon something as stupid as anti-semitism and yet they sang this song? Dumb, dumb, dumb. But that's not a surprise.
i'd say you're the one confused. you simply believe what the jew run media wants you to believe. if the shit hits the fan, cower with the jews and other lesser races. just hope true proud whites dont find you with the swine
no one was unaware, the song was simply taken for what it is, an excellent song about pride and war. people have known that cabaret is jew propaganda since it came out. the jews even got mad at kander and ebb for writing it. white pride is american pride. we've taken this song for ours, and it's doing its purpose.
German language is the best language on the world. I'm from Croatia and I love my faterland and my language, but the German language is the best forein language. Aufwiedersehen. P.S. And Franch is too very good!
For me, this sequence is one of the most powerful in the history of cinema. I'll never forget the first time I saw it; I felt a physical adrenalin rush and the hairs literally stood up on the back of my neck. "Cabaret" as a whole is a cinematic classic. It hasn't aged and still packs a punch. Excellent indeed.
So they used the German song version in the Italian dubbing of the movie... funny!
First time I hear them sing in German, although I am a German native... Have to say that the English version is by far better and it doesn't matter at all that it is actually set in Germany... The song only develops its full power and has its heartbreaking effect if sung in English!
Everytime I see a Nazidouche while walking through Berlin or the towns around I have to sing that song quietely and wish God would punishment such stupidness with a thunderbolt.
This song is so passionly putted in scence in that film, it's a fantastic demonstration of how demogagoely fatal the time was back then. Unfortunately guys like the one before me still think in this silly way. This chimera seems never to die.
Gänsehaut! Deutschland vor dem Sündenfall. Ich bin mir schon lange darüber im Klaren, dass ich damals genauso verführt worden wäre. Was für eine Schande, dass es so von Irren kaputt gemacht wurde. Das schöne an dem ganzen Film ist, dass er atmosphärisch die Zeit wunderbar rüberbringt und dass der Regisseur Fosse es vermieden hat, den böhmischen Gefreiten zu Gehör zu bringen. Ein Meisterstück des Films! Ich träume von Deutschland vor ´33!

Like the english version better, for a simple reason.
The voice match the mouth...
Still the voices are quite similar to the originals
