  • Not my favorite version of the song, but you can't deny the lady has an amazing voice. I found the best way to judge talent is just to not look at it, haha. That way, idiotic biases won't factor into your decision as to whether the music is good or bad. Turn off your monitor, close your eyes, and just listen.

  • met her twice, she wasnt that nice but who cares she is a goddess

  • Why hasn't her magnificant 77 sunset street song been upped?> I have it on a stick so you can find her where ever I plug her in...I would never plug her as she lives 400 miles below me...enjoying her retirement.

  • Real men think she's hot, anybody that says otherwise likely couldn't handle her. Voice of gold. Philistines.

  • Did Nicki Minaj study Nina's facial performances? Looks like it.

  • she is SUPER FIERCE!!!!!

  • I think she is lovely

  • She is truly an artist and completely out of her mind, I love it!!!

  • what an intollerable vibrato...

  • This woman taught me to sing and is the most incredible, crazy, beautiful creature imaginable.

  • I think Nina is so far beyond GaGa and a leader in breaking the mould long before the copy cat monster was even thought of being conceived. I like GaGa but LOVE NINA thank you for your wonderful rendition. I say to you Thank You. MWAH!

  • I think this is one of the most fascinating performances ever recorded! I can't get off my eyes off Mrs. Hagen. She is a beautiful and attractive woman, with mesmerizing voice, intelligence and sense of humor that I don't believe I've ever seen in one person before!

  • great face 0:28 <3

  • She's not ugly...just a little scary, maybe? D:

  • what? Nina ugly?? oh please! put your eyeglasses on! I paint women all the time and this lady has an amzing face...but even if you don't care about her looks , she has a great voice and is a superb perfomancer

  • AWSOME VOICE!!!

  • HAAAHAHAHA WOWWWWW  I think this chick is related to Gozer, the destructor in ghostbusters!! haha

  • Inimitable and sublime! There is no such thing as too much Nina Hagen! There is little found in life that one can still love as though it were new after thirty years, but Nina Hagen's work is on a dwindling list of such for me...

  • She has one of the MOST impressive ranges I've ever heard. And she's a true performer, just watch the bitch :D

  • She is really quite good!!! <3

  • This bitch needs to go the same way as Amy Whininghouse!

  • @Zyclonic She´s too much older than Amy Winehouse... and hundreds of times better...

  • Nina was here a long time before Lady Gaga or some other pop stars...

  • that's sick... she's sick! :O

  • what a voice !!!!! luv luv luv !!!

  • Even if you think she's ugly - listen to her voice. It's a classic jazz voice. Husky and full of emotion. For that, I think she's great.

  • @AliceValium she IS fuckin great. this voice. godness.<3

  • @AliceValium

    Yeah,I agree not like Lady Gaga.To Lady Gaga´s lovers: you are stupid idiots!

  • Nina Hagen is AMAZING! + she's goth! :)))

  • its interesting to see that the awesome nina hagen is still confusing and pissing off people to this day.

  • Awesomeness. 

  • Awesomeness. 

  • she is fucking ugly. What's that shit?

  • Hahah.Nina Hagen is ugly?Kiddies,you have no clue...And to call this version stupid,you have no clue upon music either.Please hit ''Go Back One Page'' and type in your lady faga in the search gap.

  • @Dash681 I have to go with the unwashed masses on this one. It's a miserable version of a great song. She obviously dislikes it, and that kills the entire effort. Spite ruins songs like this.

  • @Bobby3OOO I still have to disagree.I like her voice and the weird facial expressions is her way of performing.As Dee Snider said in court ''If you wanna find something bad somewhere,you will find it''

  • @Bobby3OOO you have no appreciation for art or music whatsoever. nina hagen is an amazing performer. get that stick out of your rectum

  • @Dash681

    You're right Dash - Nina sure ain't ugly and she started what Lady Gaga is famous for now. Gaga is OK too though but no Nina.

  • Why the hate? She's the bomb!

  • Heil Nina Hagen Der Fuhrer!

  • Nina Hagen is a Nazi!

  • Who is this person? Ugh. And y the ugly faces in a serious song? Totally ruined the song.

  • Nina Hagen ist unsere Lady Gaga; aber Nina kann wenigstens ohne Auto-Tune wirklich gut singen.

    wir ham'n dich lieb, Nina

    Grüsse aus Leipzig

  • Dont say bad things about Gaga! That woman is a true artist! Really! Time will tell. And Im sure that she is a huuuuge fan of Nina as well. Nina is amazing!

  • Oh, goody! I really, really WANTED to have nightmares tonight! And now I will! Hoorays!

  • Wonderful performance !

    REMOODS

  • her voice is so sexy...veruy strong...even when she is not singing...very strong and powerfull voice.. the first real girl with stylis of her own... she is the original the other ones are justa a waanna be....

  • 1:23, its Pippin from lord of the rings

  • I totally love Nina Hagen! haha, she is crazy and got talent...she is just a perfect artist and so versatile, she cang sing whatever she wants and express her style in it!

  • OMgsh, her and diamanda galas make my tummy so tickly. i love it. i aspire to cause commotion like they do.

  • Great Nina I love you

  • HERMOSA MUJER ME VUELVE LOCO TU VOZ TU PERSONALIDAD ME ENCANTA.

  • I know she must have fans to have reached this far in her career but she is not my cup of tea and I sincerely can not stand her style of music or the way she laughingly sings this wonderful song. She has no heart when she sings, she does not sing from the heart.

  • @stevemartinovich Nina Hagen likes to play around with the songs she sings. It's cool though, not everyone's a fan. :D

  • @stevemartinovich I think she has an other kind of understanding of this song. Maybe she considers this song to be just a dream and so she doesn't believe in a place over a rainbow. And so it seems she doesn't sings from heart, but maybe her heart tells her not to be delighted of this song, just to see a curious dream through in it.

  • is that a man in drag

  • @brucekirk89 no she isnt. -.-

  • That "woman" is absolutely useless and has a big big problem !

  • @MarekGermany You have a very big problem....

    you don't understand a shit of life!

  • Das falsche Publikum und Orchester für Nina!

  • this woman was an opera prodigy at 5 years old. Damn fine artist! Gotta lover Fieber mit Nina und OOMPH!

  • @HeathsHarleyQuinn  : also Seemann with Apocalyptica is perfect :D

  • wowwowwow!!!

  • @PopesOfDullness Why must other artists be belittled for the sake of others? Silliness...

  • Yuck...

  • Now i seen it all, wow

  • Did this really happen?

  • I expected funny show, but voice and so strong personality made ma amazed!!

  • se ve bien nakita xP

  • Nina hagen

    sigh............love yah baby

  • Nina Hagen is a goddess.

  • WTF

  • thanx for sharing !! - when has that been ?

  • What or Who the fuck is this ?>

  • @flamvile The mother of punk, the woman who gaga looks up to and the opposite of Madonna's pop, the crazy but talented NINA HAGEN!

  • She looks like a little 20 y.o. white girl, but she sounds like a 50 y.o. black lady singing the blues, and when she talks, she sounds like some voodoo queen from a swamp in Louisiana. I am confused D:

  • Aaaah, Nina Hagen...somewhere between your outfit which looks like some Japanese businessman's German Harajuku nightmare and your methamphetamine bugged out eyes, I can't deny your talents. Actually, I think you have vocal talents close to Garland herself and Leather Lungs would be more proud of your rendition than Minnelli's...

  • Comment removed

  • I met her in Munich.. She is like she looks..great, creepy, strange. Wonderful :)

  • that's creepy

  • me da miedo su cara

  • @PopesOfDullness I`m glad you`re perfect. I still don`t understand sth, on the previous page someone states she`s actually an alto and gets approved. why?

  • damn I love this woman!

  • @PopesOfDullness You people make me laugh. The tenor is the equivalent of a mezzo tessitura, and you only repeated what I said before:))

  • Love her voice

  • Nina Hagen....High Priestess of punk! Cozmic SHIVA! Nina RULES!!!!!

  • scary but sexy atthe same time

  • @PopesOfDullness  ahahah YAAAAY!!

  • 27 people are SO under the rainbow.

  • Nina Hagen ist Geil

  • She scare the hell of me

  • I just know Gaga by name.. No interest how she sounds. It will never top Nina how ever overpayed Gaga is. Blah blah hoppekaa.

  • SHE IS A GODESS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @PopesOfDullness Nina is an alto these days, but back when her voice had more range, she would be classified as a contralto, as well as a soprano. I'm a tenor and a baritone.... I wonder what I'd sound like if I smoked for 30+ years! Maybe I'd get to be a bass! :-p

  • Nina Hagen is one of the few things Germans can be proud of ;-)

  • @Schattenschleicher Tobbias Sammet,Hanshi Kursch,Klaus Meine,Michael Kishke...I'm forgetting so many others..

  • @Dash681

    I don't even know anyone of them ^^

    Well, Christoph Waltz is another great German guy. And Hans Zimmer, too (he's the one who wrote the music for nearly every Hollywood movie). There are some more than Nina Hagen...

  • @Schattenschleicher Well they are mostly Epic Metal singers,so it's no wonder you dont know about them.You can try listening to Blind Guardian - Sacred Worlds/Bard's song (lead singer Hansi Kursch),Avantasia - The Scarecrow full version(Tobias Sammet),Klaus Meine is the singer of Scorpions,Michael Kishke was in a band named Helloween but now he is solo.A good example to find out about his voice is Helloween - Halloween or Kishke Sommerville - Silence.If u have 30' to spare give them a try.

  • @Dash681

    I know the Scorpions... and that's it ;-)

    I think I'll listen to some of them, thanks =D

  • @Schattenschleicher maybe you should try Heinz Rudolph Kunze (German Rock), while some of his better known stuff is simple love songs, he also wrote many texts with very poetic language and deep meaning. Another group of german artists I like a lot are the Hip-Hop group "The Beginners", Bambule and Blast Action Heroes had very cool stuff.

    Sadly though, Nazism destroyed many of our greatest Talents and Scientists back then, many of whom were forced to emigrate or left right after the war.

  • okay so klaus nomi covered, ding dong the witch is dead and nina covered somewhere over the rainbow. whats the deal with germans and the wizard of oz?

  • What did she say? 0:19

  • I love it when she twirls to the music.

  • LOve this chick. Germany has such great taste in music and generally very few of the stupid hangups you find in the US and to a lesser extent Australia. Music comes in all shapes and colours - Nina is one of the brightest and most eccentric - and I love her for it. I think Americans in particular have trouble understanding anything left of centre.

  • @halag eh, i disagree, the US has spawned some very significant musical wierdos who are embraced by pockets of people all over the country. I don't think music has anything to do with nationality or that any particular country reigns supreme in creative sensibility. I know what you mean though i think that money stands behind alot of popular American music, but that stuff is goes as quickly as it comes.

  • @TheSnather True, I dont mean there arent artists in America (or Australia) who arent brilliant and exciting "musical wierdos" - of course there are. As well as Americans who embrace all kinds of music. I was only talking generalisations about mainstream society and - as you say, in terms of popular and mainstream the US music scene can be hampered and constrained by the conservative nature and profit agenda of it's industry power-brokers.

  • @halag so in essence we agree, good. :)

  • Hell I didn't even know who this chick was till I put in Ziggy Star dust O_O

  • Geniaal dit.

  • Ach Nina komm wieder nach Deutschland.

    Das Land geht vor die Hunde und keinen interessiert es.

    Vote for: More Nina's

  • @808naty Actually, Lauper was her own thing...her style, the way she dressed...ETC...but she sold out to mainstream radio to sell records. As far as Nina looking like a man? Guess I'm gay then cause she is hot to me! I have seen her with less make-up, and was no less beautiful. She is a sweet, humble artist. Watch her interview with Letterman, may open your eyes. Letterman was an ass, and Nina didn't play into his stunts. The reason she can sound like a man is due to her EXTENSIVE range...

  • @808naty  F+++ and gute n8

  • GAGA WHO?

  • @808naty Be sure to feed your guide dog well. you are obviously blind.

  • @808naty Do some research before talking shit. Just look at her when she sings "Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen" she is so very cute.

  • @Nicoco95310 Wow now I know ppl have to do research to know when someone is cute or not wtf that dont even make any sense and I dont need to look at her sing anything even her voice is manly God -_-

  • @808naty WOW...the picture in your mirror must be scary, cause you can´t have any beauty in your face and/or your heart!!! or you just don´t understand art! on the other side:everyone has a different taste of what is hot and what is not so...F###....but that´s not my problem....have a nice life, ...greets!

  • Damn, Nina Hagen always makes me horny! Such a beautiful woman...

  • what an inspiration that woman!, I just adore her!

  • its like she was channeling garland/minelli, but I like this version very much. Well Done!

  • deep - I love it!

  • at least gaga can do listenable pop songs.. despite that they are both dumba's/nina hagen is effin nuts.. the difference is lady gaga is a wannabe nut/ when compared to nina.. i always preferred christina to britney.. overexxagerated vocals blow.. less is more..

  • Fuck! She's wonderfully insane! I love her!

  • warum wird nina mit gaga verglichen ich verstehs nicht sorry... ganz anderes Niveau oder etwa nicht?

  • @Nessi735

    ja, warum?? wast ist uberhaupt ein gaga??? da ist nur ein NINA!!!

  • liebe es *-*

  • schon ein bisschen schade, dass das leipziger orcheseter mit einen steinway und nicht mit einem blüthner spielt...da bringt der name auch nichts mehr, der ist ruiniert mit dem instrument

  • I still think Hagen is actually a drag queen- thought it back in the late 1970's and think it now.

  • @notmemate Haven't you seen her beautiful daughter Cosma Shiva Hagen? Looks like snowwhite and a lot like Nina ;)

  • @MissHeyken Well I guess that settles all those years of wondering then. :)

  • Oh, how I absolutely love Nina Hagen! She is so wacky, yet so serious at the same time. Truly a one of a kind talent! Originality at its finest!

  • i love the clothes!!!

  • NINA HAGEN <3 one of the Greatest Legend of Earth *___*

  • i perfer this then the real version

  • We can FLY! Who told us that we can't? When I lived in Germany back in the late 70's Nina Hagen was IT! Still have one of her "albums" from 1980! All great Artists, including "Performers" are way ahead of their time....

  • @KoelngeistKoelnkanal just a woman who's supposed to be really out there... she kinda sucks massive cock!

  • I don't know GaGa? but she has been on the news. Do you think gaga even knows who is Nina Hagen? NUNSEXMONKROCK

  • @garpigdaddy

    you're fucking right man, gaga wasn't even born. by the way, what is a gaga??

    i'm from holland and a musician, nina was married to herman brood.i've played in support acts by herman brood and his wold romance a few times. and sometimes nina was there to. we all had a lot of fun. i glad i don't know wat a gaga is. otherwise i've killed it !! there's only one nina, and still going strong. look at gaga after 3 years. betty ford clinic!!!REHAB.. just like nina 20 years ago.

  • @Pvoorr65 Im serious man, gaga is nothing but a copy cat, She stole her entire act from Dale Bozzio of Missing Persons, Look at videos like Right now, Gice, Words and u will see gaga ripped off Dale Bozzio, Its soo disgusting,

    gaga is caca

  • @garpigdaddy GaGa? who the eff is that?...oh yeah, the poser I changed the channel on 1 minute into her "show"...Nina is the true Diva!!!!!

  • @garpigdaddy
