The Producers- Haben Sie Gehort Das Deutsche Band

[xhellonhighheels69x]

I never would have thought, but he's a pretty good singer!

[1h00bit]

I'm taking a German class and every time my teacher says "haben sie...." I always wanna sing this song :P

[oneeyedirishman]

I say this meaning no offense to Germans:

But several parts of this song sound like something from the Sims.

[BlueRoyalProductions]

i love how instead of talking about the musical or about how great the song is, people bitch and argue over the war. Just like in fallout 3 songs, go on any enclave page and you'll find someone arguing cause they can't just learn to stfu. seriously people

[sintofg]

I love how irrelevent topic discussion some how pops into the comments.

[Ediblemittens]

isn't 'die Band' a musical band" and 'das band' a string? das ist stimmt, oder?

[DiamondbackCobra]

You, down in the comments, bitching at one another... Shut up and enjoy the stupid song or exchange emails and have your ground-breaking political debate in private. The only thing that should be in the comments section is bad Will Ferrell quotations, as Youtube intended.

[melkor116]

i only watch this movie because of will ferrell

[hakarg17]

its german people, with a few english words thrown in mixed with a fake german accent. its still awesome and well done to will ferrel

[ramjet94]

@zarda999 dude America never loved Hitler once we heard of him we knew the bastard was evil why do you think people loved him in the history of america there was never a staged where we liked the Nazis ever.

[sutekhseth]

@ramjet94 We loved him till he fucked with Americas' trades. Then Amercia decided to go apeshit on him.

[SLVRBLLT40]

@ramjet94

You are unfortunately mistaken. Ford, General Motors, IBM, Walt Disney and many other American industrialists and politicians only saw how Hitler was industrializing Germany and saw a great opportunity to increase trade. Henry Ford and Walt Disney even supported Nazi Germany on a morale level and Ford received a number of civilian decorations for his contribution to the German government, right up until 1939. So to say the the U.S.A. never loved Hitler is absoloutely incorrect.

[ramjet94]

@SLVRBLLT40 ok i have reasons your argument is crap. 1: just because comapanys that are stationed in america doesnt mean the american people loved hitler. its just industrialist trying to make a profit, its not considered "love". in fact pretty all of america hated the guy when we heard of the atrocities he was commiting. 2nd: if Walt Disney loved Hitler, why did he release multiple films about bashing the oppressive government and the way of life in germany.

[SLVRBLLT40]

@ramjet94

That was post Pearl Harbor. You have no evidence my argument is "crap". I have factual, documented examples of Americans sponsoring, endorsing, and even helping Nazi Germany during the 1930's. Where did the Hindenburg crash again? THAT'S RIGHT! New Jersey. If we hated Hitler, right from the get go, why was the swastika laden Hindenberg cruisin around North America? Henry Ford published "The International Jew: The World's Foremost Problem" and was awarded the Grand Cross for it

[ramjet94]

@SLVRBLLT40 1st i would love to hear where you got these documentated examples from besides the internet. 2nd Yes the Hindenburg was made in germany but it wasnt Swastika laden and if your definition of cruising is "bursting into flames and killing 32 passengers in seconds" thats both insulting both offensive.

and i reiterate HENRY FORD DID NOT REFLECT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE'S OPINION. He was a business man saw an opportunity to make money and he took it not the american people

[SLVRBLLT40]

@ramjet94

Both insulting AND both offensive? Wow, I'm an asshole. Damn, you're right. The Hindenburg only had swastika's on the tail fins. You've won the internets sir, with you're UNDENIABLE knowledge of all things ever. You've bested me in all, with all you're off the top of you're head "facts". Now go forth! Re-write the history books for all to see! You'll show them that all those pesky films, newspaper articles, Time Life's selection of Adolf Hitler as man of the year is nothing!

[SLVRBLLT40]

@ramjet94

The German Junkers JU52 was a design based (with blueprints from Ford) on the Ford Tri-Plane. America did not begin to discover concentration camps until 1943. So, show me your evidence of a U.S.A. that NEVER supported Adolf Hitler. I will be waiting.

[ramjet94]

@SLVRBLLT40 again FORD did that NOT America. 2nd America had anti-Nazi propaganda years before Pearl Harbor. 3rd Everyone knew about the concentration camps even the jewish people who lived in europe but nobody NOBODY wanted to beleive that they were comiting atrocities that horrible. 4th the reasons America didn't join the war at first was A: we were in the middle of a depression B: it was the first world war that got us n the depression so thats why we werent so eager to help at first

[MrThedeepone]

@ramjet94 The first world war didn't get us in the depression though....

[deja2053]

why does you tube always hide the movie clip of this song?

[zzhpgurl7]

i love this movie. it's so well made and the satire in it really did take power away from the name of Hitler. Franz was so ridiculously funny. Will Ferrell equals amazing.

[opidacul]

Haben Sie Gehort Das Deutsche Band!!!!????????

[idrawbetterthanyouXD]

LOL! hes like "stuped un ze russian" XDDD

[trekkie2006]

haha he said ROTTEN not Russian that time haha

[idrawbetterthanyouXD]

ok lol XD i just thought he said russian because its ironic that the russians were the ones who defeated hitler

[fallendrako]

Actually it was more Russia came from behind while brittain and america attacked from behind. Russia got destroyed by japan so they really weren't the ones that defeated hitler.

[NiklasGustavsson]

@fallendrako, you need a history check if you actually belive that

[Mduenisch]

@fallendrako What the hell? Both England and the United States took the behind while Russia took the behind simultaneously? So that behind was very open for a flank it would seem. You might also want to get your facts straight, while Russia and Japan may have had some conflicts(not sure myself), I've never once heard of any battle taking place between the two. Russia launched a full offensive against Germany literally like dumping drain-o into a sink. Americans and England held the south...

[Mduenisch]

@Mduenisch And I do believe it's quite well known that the United States had concentrated most of it's effort in on fighting Japan, in the southern Territories in the southern hemisphere around say, the Philippines, or Indonesia. Nobody necessarily "defeated" Hitler, just overpowered him and his military before he had committed suicide with Ava Braün or whatever her name was. Russia was actually the one that liberated most concentration camps and were first in Berlin, the capital.

[TheDarkesT44]

@Mduenisch well, i think it was multiple forces that defeated hitler. for one, in 1943 general patton pushed the germans out of africa and the nazis out of italy, thus destroying them on the southern front with major help fromthe british, in 1944 theamericans landed in france, and pushed the germans out of holland, belgium, france, andswitzerland, and after 1942, russia slowly pushed the germans back from the river volga across poland all the way to berlin, and by then, they were screwed.

[Mduenisch]

@TheDarkesT44 Right but re-read my comment and you'll see I pretty much went with what you said. It's just I'm saying that it should be well known that no single country was the THE country to defeat Hitler. What I'm not sure of in the slightest is whether or not Russia and Japan had had any conflicts against one another at all. If I remember Patton was the one who came up with the idea of making a conquest from island to island, uprooting Japanese forces hidden in southeast Asia while at the-

[Mduenisch]

@TheDarkesT44 -same time the European allies (not counting Russia) were handling the western front, and southern front. However I don't doubt that America took part in that whatsoever, because the idea of the entire American army focusing only on Japan, and not helping ALL of its European allies take care of the European enemies it has, would not be a sound decision in my book. However Stalin is said to have had a fond appreciation and friendship with Hitler. The two had a truce at the start-

[TheDarkesT44]

@Mduenisch well what can be said is hitler made all the right moves, and then took the wrong ones. see, im sure you've heard the term history repeats itself, well, Hitler took all the right moves that napolian did centuries before him, such as, he took northern Africa, he strength ed Italy, he took holland and denmark, but his blunder? he over extended his troops and tried to take moscow. thousands of troops freezed, he fought determined people, and he made an enemy he didnt need, just as napoli

[zarda999]

@TheDarkesT44 and he killed the Jews that was bad too. America loved him until then because America loves a winner and he was. Until he want apeshit and killed the Jews.

Killing the Jews is always a bad thing.

[dudemantwo]

@zarda999 Hitler was gay...

[Mduenisch]

@TheDarkesT44 of the war, and at one point Hitler broke that truce for Operation Barbarossa, in which his army invaded Russia's western borders, killing thousands of Russian soldiers, and civilians. Stalin was so shocked that he had not spoken to any of his men on the matter for almost a week, until he decided to fight back, and support his officers currently involved. After Op. Bar. was a failure, mostly because Hitler was trying to recreate a war much like that of Napoleon, out a Napoleon-

[Mduenisch]

@TheDarkesT44 -complex, in which he was trying to succeed where Napoleon, the greatest emperor before him(relative of course), had failed, in 1812(wikipedia). Nazis had control of Ukraine, some strong economic ground in Russia, and while trying to take control of more of Russia, they were repelled after reaching Moscow, and couldn't manage a frontal attack again on Russia for the rest of the war. The Russians regained their composure shortly after and came in for vengeance, entering Berlin.

[lolcomedy]

I just know this song is so awesome lol

[KenzieKaddl]

I wish this song was longer but I love it anyway!

[GERdeathstar]

Haben sie gehört = Have you heard

Das deutsche Band = The German string

We don't say "Band" for the English "band".

Das Band means the string. End of discussion and false translations :p

[TubeTehTube]

@GERdeathstar my german teacher calls words like that false friends

[chica476]

@GERdeathstar

it should also read gramatically, "Haben Sie des deutschen Band gehoert?".

[happiehtoast]

@GERdeathstar yes, we do! I have to admit, it is kind of confusing because I naturally thought they meant "Band" as in long, thin stripe of clothing, but we do say band for a musical group.. so it's not wrong at all.

[jetsam50000]

0:44 KEY CHANGE

[theproducrsfan]

i wonder why the prouducers are funny

[Yumikou90]

It must called :

"Haben Sie die deutsche Band gehört?

"Have you heared the german band?"

[DevilShroom]

Pssst, it's a joke.

The film/musical is a comdey that takes the piss out of the Nazis and many other things.

[spikey171196]

it shouldent be said as deutche thats femail germany is known as the father land not the mother land so it should be deutch band so kinda crazy

[Silversnapdragon]

You don't speak German do you? Lernen Sie Deutsch, können dann Sie das besprechen.

[Nogger86Germany]

wow, that was a veeeery sad try!:)

[Yumikou90]

Wow, i am german, but i dont understand one word!!!

[neillob11]

hör gut zu!

They start the song by saying ,, haben sie gehört das deutsche Band gehört?"

Aber er musste ,,Haben Sie das deutsch Band gehört" gesagt.

At least they tried.

[jmn1228]

no, actually, most of the song is english, with a few gibberish words

[johnnygrrl]

" Haben Sie Gehort Das Deutsche" i looked it up on babble fish it says it means, Have going place the German... i don't speak german though so i don'[t know

[Rommel10145]

Im fluent in German and yeah thats how it translates roughly

[FUCKIHATECENSORSHIP]

Haben Sie Gehort Das Deutsche" i looked it up on babble fish it says it means, Have going place the German... i don't speak german though so i don'[t know

Mostly it's because they used (incorrect) German words with an English sentence structure, which is why you get such WTF sentences.

[trekkie2006]

it's not incorrect German words. It is German.

Probably why it turned out funny for you is because "gehoert" has an umlaut. (the e next to the o is a way to show an umlaut without having the umlaut there)

[LoudCitizen]

babble fish is wrong. It is not gibberish -- it is proper German, and it means, "Have You Heard the German Band".

[DylOweed]

actually that is german for have u heard the german band...

[FUCKIHATECENSORSHIP]

Most of it is actually English in a thick, albeit obviously fake, German accent. A little bit of it is gibberish, and obviously haben sie gehort das deutsche band is german.

[pieman3968]

@FUCKIHATECENSORSHIP of cours its a fake accent, its will ferral

[KittKinkstone1989]

I can tell you that it should mean "Have you heard the german Band" but it's wrong german grammar. It has to be "Haben sie DIE deutsche Band gehört?".

[Cobra44555]

No it is das in this instance

[EvilGirlGenius]

uh no. Sie is formal for you, sie is also they. you can normally tell because of the endings. Don't get confused with she.

Ich habe

Du hast

er/sie/es hat

wir haben

ihr habt

Sie/sie haben <-You have/ They have

How do I know, I take german. This is my 3rd year.

[veniamin3]

The grammar's wrong. Gehort would go at the end of the sentence. Not meaning to be pedantic, it's just that I'm unbearable when it comes to grammar.

[ChineseDragonNinja]

get over it!

[veniamin3]

No. Also I'm assuming you're not a speaker of German and you're only saying that because it sounds like gibberish to you anyway.

[ChineseDragonNinja]

Its a song! Its a comedy musical! jUST LEAVE IT!

[ChineseDragonNinja]

It doesnt sound like gibberish....:S

Its a language and I understand german....

[AnotherAnimator]

what does haben sie gehort mean in German?

[ShadowSonic2]

"Have you heard of the German band?"

[cliftonator]

"No... That is the name of the song I am going to sing" rofl i love this movie.

[locosherman1]

it means

they belongs

[ChineseDragonNinja]

The song title means ' She heard the music band'

[GhosX9]

Technically it could mean either "Have you heard the German Band?" or "Has She heard the German Band?"

[ChineseDragonNinja]

Yeah :D

[Humancyclone7]

its she

[Verhoeven1980]

No, actually its: Have you heard the german band. The "sie" is formal. Not "she"

[veniamin3]

No, it means have you heard the German Band. Sie being formal for you. And even if it was she, it would have to be 'Hat sie das Deutsche Band gehort?' So ha! Mein Luftkissenfahrzeug ist voller mit Aale!

[acino56]

muy buena cancion!!!!!!!!

[TGKDestroyer]

thats a good song and nice pictures you have at this one ;)
