Nightmare Before Christmas - Jack's Lament (German)

[colmustard42]

@SerasxAlucard You really ould blame the modern educational system for that. all they teach us about germany is martin luther, classical musicians, and the third Reich. it is a beautiful language which I hope to learn one day.

[Kagruratheghost]

I do not care what anyone says, German is and will always be my favorite language. Even though I'm an american, I would must prefer to have German as a primary.

Das ist sehr gut und Ich liebe Deutsch! <3

[SuicideCup]

For those of you who try to learn german: he actually uses a few old sayings in german. plus the tenses are pretty messed up - everything's grammatically correct but even for a german pretty hard. he uses the 'poetic' german, not the one with that you could talk to someone normally.

To the video: i love it! i love his voice in german. though i like how deep it is in the english version, i prefer how clearly and fluently he talks, plus i like the RRR's. great quality, by the way.

[scherztoertchen]

Die deutsche VErsion ist lange nicht so gut wie die englishe. Jacks Stimme ist einfach zu hoch.

[SheaUndisclosed]

You know a language is amazing when you think it's beautiful despite barely understanding a word of it. And the song definitely helps.

[Glarshke]

Aaah! This is so beautiful!

[Midnaization]

OKAY, PEOPLE ARE MISINTERPRETING MY COMMENT, SO, UH... COULD YOU PEOPLE JUST... NOT THUMBS IT UP? PLEASE? My poor inbox. xD

[RavingRachael]

@Midnaization No apologies! Stand by your comment! It was hilarious.

[lordbicycle742]

awww i love the german word for bones 1:36

[Vladek569]

@lordbicycle742 The german word for bones is Knochen, not gekannt.

[lordbicycle742]

@Vladek569sorry .... but sounds like cunt

[Vladek569]

@lordbicycle742 Haha, np dude. xD

[Jackolanturn045]

alle versionen sind gut (Deutsch, English und fransich) !!!!

Ok

[TheDork777]

Ich kann sagen, dieser Song ist viel besser als die amerikanische Version

[brightsun6900]

i'm trying to learn german, and this is definatly getting me to learn the language!

[IHEARTPORKCHOPS]

sounds cool in german :D

[kpopXanime]

This sounds so cool in German! Oh, i love listening to these songs in different languages. And seriously guys we are here for the song, not for history that has passed. :)

[Spiderfang555Studios]

I'm Austrian, i am proud of my country, we got a wonderful language.

Austria is not Australia, its in Europe...

[aloania]

Imponuje koleżance i uczę się tego po różnych językach...;) na razie umiem po polsku i po angielsku XD i się po niemiecku uczę;D

[Weranisma]

YAY I'm from austria and I always likes this song more in english...

Than I red this nice comments about german and I'm so happy that so many people don't associate german with Nazi or Hitler or so.

Thank you! ; )

[TheMightyGosh]

I think Jacks singing voice in german is indeed better than in english, honestly.

[Towlysfriend]

jack hat die selbe stimme wie timon aus könig der löwen und dem grünen einaugigen monster von der monster ag oder ?

[thehewll]

@Towlysfriend du meinst wohl Ilja Richter, aber ich muss dich leider enttäuschen, Alexander Goebel spricht (und singt) Jack. ziemlich ähnlich die stimmen :D

[kdhcollection]

so his name doesn't sound yak (just kidding)

[titoine91410]

Good version but honestly french version is the best :)

[BogotaDreamTV3]

the German put power to Jack's song

[SecretChronicle1]

@Linalichan Ja ich bin der gleichen Meinung =D

[johannakaka]

ich liebe tim burtons filmee <3 ausser sweeney todd der geht mir auf die nerven xD aber dieser film ist einfach nur toll xD

[toughbail456]

This sounds like Steve Carrell. Now like this comment, because you know it does.

[samfeatsasuke]

Liebe diesen Filme aber finde die Songs auf englisch besser

[cheraemen9996]

Jack: I don't speak German, but I can if you like......

[MrOtakuyuki]

Wenn ich das so lese das Jack's deutsche stimme so sehr gemocht wierd macht mich das happy. *o* Tehe... Deutsch ist also doch eine coole sprache ^-^

[Farbiebarbie]

In Englisch klingt es besser, finde ich.

[SecretChronicle1]

Ich kenne den Film bloß durch Kingdom Hearts xD

[Linalichan]

@SecretChronicle1 die beste Welt im ganzen Spiel!

[MITRWXS]

It's sounds absolutely lovely in German.

[milonoto]

ich liebe diesen film den hab ich schon als kind gekukt als ich herausgefunden hab wie der heist habb ich mir denn film zehnmal angekukt

[Plastikvieh]

"wenn ich dann noch stöhn,

so recht tief und..obszön...."

sorry leute, es musste sein xD

[MissScabtree13]

so they have the nightmare before christmas translated in almost every language? oh lordy <3 german AND JAPANESE?

[Midnaization]

My English teacher once said that German was a very ugly language.

Dumb bitch.

[MissScabtree13]

@Midnaization She is a dumb bitch



[Midnaization]

@MissScabtree13 I know, right? :3

[laundry9870]

@Midnaization Yes your teacher is Dumb but German is probably the hardest language to learn because constants and vowels being where they shouldn't be

[yurismir1]

@Midnaization If she thinks German is ugly she should check out Dutch haha

[Midnaization]

@yurismir1 Ooh! Do they play this song in it? XDDD

[19marcel98]

@Midnaization you and your English teacher are ugly how dare you abuse my language asshole

[Midnaization]

@19marcel98 1: You don't know what I look like, 2: I was saying that SHE was a dumb bitch for hating German! xD I love the language, and this song is amazing! :)

[19marcel98]

@Midnaization Oh oh sorry my fault I misunderstood yours

[Midnaization]

@19marcel98 Ha, that's alright, I WAS kind of ambiguous. x)

[Giogionanni]

@Midnaization what ? ? D: Deine lehrerin ist so dumm -.- x) x) it's a beautyful language :) wie English :D

[horror1569]

@Midnaization WTF! shut up fuck off u stupid asshole... did't u know an american ani't no have greatness country in their past time....they ain't have history cause in stone age american just like little bitches try find their identity...poor american... and my teacher said American language and their tradision life FUCKING WAISTING TIME!!!! get of my face bitches....go n fine ur identity HERCULIS son of bitch! u freak ugly guy...

[Midnaization]

@horror1569 No, I was calling my TEACHER a dumb bitch for hating the Germans. I LOVE THIS SONG AND THE LANGUAGE. xD Chill out. :3

[SuicideCup]

@horror1569 whoa chillax. he just said that he liked the german language and that his teacher wasn't right about it being ugly. he thinks the song is cool in german. and even if he'd posted a hate-comment it isn't very polite to say such rude things to anyone. plus he didn't even say that he's from america, eventually he's from austria or britain. plus, in 'stone age' there were no americans nor did those try to find their identity o.O please watch your language.

[xxElementOnexx]

@Midnaization lol of all people she should know better because english is a germanic language

[SerasxAlucard]

All who associate anything German with Hitler is ignorant! German is a wonderful language and I've wished to learn it since I was like.. 6 years old! (Wish me luck?! :D)

And if you hate German or just think about Nazis and such, please go away~ The others don't want to read about it.

[Sandkastenrockerin01]

@SerasxAlucard i wanna hug you right now. you are awesome and won the... uh.. internet or something lol xD

[SerasxAlucard]

@Sandkastenrockerin01 Awwwh thank you!!! <3

[LazyHarlequino]

@SerasxAlucard thank you very much good sir!

[SerasxAlucard]

@LazyHarlequino I'm a lady, :) 

[TheFreakshowCircus]

@SerasxAlucard Now that's the first time I don't regret it after reading comments below a german-speaking video. Thanks a lot, I'm not german but I always feel sorry for them when reading these racist and ignorant comments on yt.

Sorry for my english.

[mquay100]

@TheFreakshowCircus Don't worry your English was perfect, and I couldn't have put it better myself :)

[yurismir1]

@SerasxAlucard *...ARE ignorant... If you're going to call someone else ignorant, you really might want to get your basic conjugations right.

[Virgilthepagan]

@SerasxAlucard It's worth it on so many levels, I can't tell you how much learning German has changed my life, I currently live in Berlin, and every minute's been fun.

[Animeotakucookienut]

@SerasxAlucard

1.I agree im German when my frieds found out they avoided me saying i was a nazi and it really hurt

2 I also want 2 lean german so i wish u the best of luck

3 I love ur username!

[SerasxAlucard]

@Animeotakucookienut I know, it gets really annoying when you say you're German and people are like "so are you a Nazi? Or "Are you related to Hitler?" It really makes me want to slap people.

I wish you luck with German, too! And thanks for the comment on my user name :)

[MetaLatias5]

@SerasxAlucard you know what's funny? some Germans today can't even understand everything what Hitler says when they watch recordings of his speeches XD (me for example)

[SerasxAlucard]

@MetaLatias5 Understandable. I know I'm only learning it but I can't understand what he says.

[Jackolanturn045]

@SerasxAlucard hor zu deutsch ist so cool!

[MMFrostMM]

@SerasxAlucard thanks, thats realy good to hear =) greetings out of a dark belltower in germany ;)

[linkfan160]

Oooh! I love the German lanuage! :D It's so good!

[DaphneHalloween]

I thougt, that English original and polish version(which I've heard when I was just a child , - 'cause I'm polish XD) are the best and I do not change my mind but I was surprised -german version is better than I expected!

(Sorry for awful grammar and orthography >.<)

[Sedraen]

As much as I love the German language, it doesn't really carry the song as well as some others. D: Still, it's awesome hearing it in German. DER HERR DES SPOOKS

[IceHyorinmaru]

Please stop talking about hitler here. >:(

[xXElectricAngelXx]

I´m german, and I like either the german and the english synchro. BUT I don´t agree that our language sounds like hitler or like any other nazi. If you don´t like our language, please stop watching videos and spreading bad comments afterwards.

I love this movie, it´s soo amazing <3 I can´t understand why people say it´s emo. There´s no emo scene. Well, exept for Jacks lament. XD but hey,there´s even santa, happy kids in the snow,a smiling snowman,and christmas!so where´s the emo thingy? XD

[Drachenglutgirl]

ich liebe die deutsche stimme von jack . die passt wirklich sowas von gut zu ihm :)

[Akuma296]

In German, it sounds awesome~!! Even though I can barely understand what they're saying. XD

[SigmaRidley]

4:

But who here can understand kings

This grinning face doesn’t feel as he was royal

He doesn’t care about the throne, oh if they only understood

He would give it up if he just was able to leave

Oh deep inside of me it is very empty

I am longing for more

I don’t want praise and fame

These can not dry my tears

[SigmaRidley]

3: I’m a master of haunt and very wily And my sight makes you rigid with fear Wherever I go I spread pain And the whole world runs away from me And since I am dead I can take off my head (without any problems) To quote Shakespeare No animal and no man can scream as loud as I can When I make an effort while recapitulating

[SigmaRidley]

2:

But year after year it’s the same old routine

And I am tired of the shrieks

And I, Jack, the master of haunt

I am tired of it and it’s enough

Oh somewhere inside of my skeleton

Something lacks I want to have

It torments me I am told by my mind

A longing that I’ve never known

[SigmaRidley]

1:

What no one denies: I am a master of my subject

My arts are known everywhere

When I play a trick to someone in the dark

I am successful in any event

I just need to move one finger of my bone hand

To make the toughest man scream

And then when I moan very deep and hollow

For the brave remains nothing than escape

[mikeohmusic]

Ich hab mich heute sehr gefreut,diese Ausschnitte aus meinem Lieblingsfilm von Tim Burton zu sehen.

Vielen Dank fürs Hochladen.

LG,Mike

[SigmaRidley]

So das hier ist für die, die den Text nicht verstehen. Also für alle, die des Deutschen nicht mächtig sind.

This is for all the people not understanding the lyrics. For all people not being able to speak German. I know you English and Americans would like to know what he's singing. If you want a translation just tell me.

[Flash3713]

@SigmaRidley I would absolutely love a translation :)

[SigmaRidley]

@Flash3713 just wait a bit- I'll see what I can do.

[SigmaRidley]

@Flash3713 translation done. I hope I didn't do a mistake

[Flash3713]

@SigmaRidley Thank you so much it sounds wonderful<3

[SigmaRidley]

@Flash3713 no problem ;)

[SigmaRidley]

4:

Doch wer hier kann Könige versteh’n

Gar nicht königlich fühlt dieses Grinsgesicht

Der Thron ist ihm egal, ach könnten sie’s versteh’n

Er gäbe ihn auf, könnte er nur geh’n

Oh tief in mir da ist es so leer

Ich sehn‘ mich so nach etwas mehr

Auf Lob und Ruhm bin ich kaum erpicht

Sie trocknen mir die Tränen nicht

[SigmaRidley]

3:

Ich bin Meister des Spuks und so schlau wie ein Fuchs

Und mein Anblick macht dich starr vor Schreck

Denn wohin ich auch gehe verbreite ich Wehe

Und die ganze Welt läuft vor mir weg

Und bin ich schon tot trag‘ ich ganz ohne Not

Meinen Kopf um Shakespeare zu zitieren

Kein Tier und kein Mann schreit so laut wie ich kann

Streng‘ ich mich an im Rekapitulieren

[SigmaRidley]

2:

Doch Jahr folgt auf Jahr in demselben Trott

Und ich habe endlich das Gekreische satt

Und ich, Jack, der Herr des Spuks

Ich bin es müde und ich hab‘ genug

Oh irgendwo in meinem Skelett

Da fehlt mir was, was ich gern hätt‘

Es quält mich so sagt mir mein Verstand

Die Sehnsucht, die ich niemals gekannt

[SigmaRidley]

1:

Was wohl keiner verneint ich bin der Meister meines Fachs

Meine Künste sind bekannt überall

Spiel‘ ich jemand im Dunkeln einen Schabernack

So gelingt‘s mir bestimmt in jedem Falle

Rühr‘ ich nur den kleinen Finger meiner Knochenhand

Hat der stärkste Mann schon laut geschrie’n

Wenn ich dann auch noch stöhn‘ so recht tief und hohl

Bleibt den Tapf’ren gar nichts übrig als zu flieh’n

[MegaQwerty1029]

Jack KICKS ASS in any language

[ummhmmlies]

@amycurle sounds more like fuck the fly

[QuestionRenee]

I got the DVD. They didn't have german on it. :C Which is a shame, because this song is fucking amazing in German.

[Angel11104]

könnte mir vielleicht einer den link zum downloaden schicken?

ich würde den gern auf deutsch haben

danke schon mal

[Crochnax]

YAY Jaaaaack! Ich liebe sowohl die Englische als auch die Deutsche Version. Leider muss ich sagen, dass die Übersetzung ins Deutsche teilweise echt grottig ist, dennoch sind die Lieder stimmig und super schön.

Besonder genial finde ich, dass Alexander Goebel die deutsche Synchronstimme von Jack ist. Ich bin mit der Stimme auf Grund des Musicals "Das Phantom der Oper" groß geworden.

Er bringt das Leiden einfach super gut rüber... sowohl als Jack, als auch das Phantom, damals in Wien! ;)

[HojoOSanagi]

Iċ lufie þone Þēodisce sprǣcan. Swā sōþlīċe. (Old English: I love the German language. It's so soothing.)

[mshackabler]

Ich denkt, das ist viel besser, dann Englisch ein! Ich liebe die ganze Deutsch Kultur!

[MiftaCheeks]

Are these the same voice actors? The voices sound very similar.

[theghostisjack]

Hitler.

[123Sasori321]

@theghostisjack

Öh...ja is kla O_o

Hitler war auch ein Skelett mit 2m langen beinen oder was? ^^

[WiiMad5000]

did he just say cunt

LOL

[Maeveypoo99]

Im sorry to say but, this sounds really werid to me from the english version. But I have to say its epic! Its sounds so cool. I don't know how to speak German though, thats probaly why. But I have to say I like the English version. But, i wish I could learn german cause it sounds so cool. Im some German. It'd be so cool

[123Sasori321]

@Maeveypoo99

Deutsch ist auch eine schöne, aber schwere Sprache

= German really is a nice language ^^ but it´s pretty hard :S

There´s so much gramma x_X

[Mariofan9]

A Dutchman here who loves German as well as English.

I have to say, this version is fantastic. When I hear this guy speak, I'm totally convinced of his emotions. Does anyone know the name of the singer?

'Nyway, like to spit hate at German for all sorts of reasons. But you know, I think it has a beautiful, noble, polite and serious tone to it that you don't see in many other languages.

[Mariofan9]

@Mariofan9 I meant to say "PEOPLE like to" there... stupid mistake. Eh heh.

[y7veyhaz]

D: eeeew

i like the english version more x(

[chiyome21]

German sounds awesome for this!! :D

[arandomperson3]

Why can't they just let Danny Elfman sing all the translations? I know it's a lot of work but serioulsy this guy isn't hardly even singing. He's just reciting the lyrics.

[LisaZumQuadrat]

I´m german and I´m very happy to read all this nice comments about our language and everything :-)

thanks, that makes me very happy

[Addi606]

@LisaZumQuadrat me too :] ich liebe einfach meine heimat :)

[MMFrostMM]

@LisaZumQuadrat me too :D i never red something good about the german language. mostly 'it sounds rough, raw and martial' ... but as we can see... its the way you use it for ;)

[iiLynxii]

This version is fucking epic.

[ChaosDragonLegna]

mensch mensch wieso wird hier drüber diskutiert ob alle deutsche nazis sind oder nicht -.- dies ist ein wunderbares lied von nem tollen film mit nem megasexy typen. genießt einfach diesen song!

[Flash3713]

I speak only about 12 words of German, one learned from the comments of this video.

This is my third favorite translation, behind the original English and the French.

[Darkangel1240]

i'd never realized how jack's voice is like an epic eargasm in german. i thought his voice was sexy in japanese. but. i've been mistaken. this is better :D

[Verystrangers]

@Darkangel124 OMG

[CloneShadow]

Oh mann ich liebe diesen Teil des Film am meisten. Der Spiralhill ist der schönste, magischste und romantischste Ort in Halloween Town.

LIEBE ES!!!

[MrsNillyPsychoChaos]

Is das nich auch der Synchro von dem Glöckner von Nothre Dame?

[CurseOfDawn]

Do you know this Pattons quote?

"All Nazis are evil, but not all Germans are Nazis", or something like that?

[chimizu3]

o_o... german is kinda... nvm... its too mean...

[arandomperson3]

Nope not as good as Danny Elfman

[Eriksoneandonly]

The best thing about this version HAS to be the awesome way he says "und ich, JACK!" at 1:00 in that awesome kind of scream! <3<3 This guy's voice is so awesome!  Thanks so much for posting!

[invaderpink]

its kinda funny how similar english and german sound somtimes like in the song This is Haloween the guy under the stairs it sounds like english only with an accent :D

[pkpang924]

thanks

can I find the lyrics?

[MetallicaMann13]

y is it all i can think about hearin this is Hitler singing this?

[19Mellon73]

An educated guess would be...well most likely due to your limited intellectual capcity.

You heard several things in your life but you're not able to reflect on them.

All in all it's because you are not the brainiest boy...

[Lilithly]

@MetallicaMann13 can´t be, cause hitler had an austrian accent. stupid, huh?

[TheNotsoGreatGatsby0]

@MetallicaMann13 cause your an ignorant american, who probably thinks that the entire german populance, were quite content witht the nazis...

[mastercrowly]

i mean 1:38 - 1:40 he says "cunt" not :38 - :40

[kaialone]

he says "gekannt" wich is a past form of "kennen" wich means "To know"

[mastercrowly]

:38-:40 he says "cunt"

[xthesamebLuesky]

ich liebe es :D

[darkhyena]

This incarnation of Jack sounds much friendlier than the comparatively maniacal Italian version

[sweetpie8]

I love it ^^

[GRACIELOVEHIM]

Ich liebe Nightmare

das ist gut

ha german one people :)

[velvetsnape]

Mimmel123: Ich mag die Deutsch-Version ebenso. es ist für mich Bildungs, haha

[fariylover222]

Ahhhhhh icnt uderstand a word ur saying

[Sagakura]

you highlight and translate it T...T

[Mimmel123]

ich finde die Englische Sprechstimme von Jack viel besser als die englische singstimme die englisch hört sich an als hatte er etwas in hals ^^

[GoldenTearInMyHeart]

Weiß einer wer Jack singt?^^

[TheCrave334]

kuck bei wikipedia

[KitKat1107]

Alexander Goebel ist der Synchronsprecher von Jack.

[GoldenTearInMyHeart]

Hey vielen Dank :)

[KullakeX]

Der macht so komische Ballermann Musik...

Solch eine Vergeudung dieser Stimme

Das ist total enttäuschend gewesen als ich das gesehen hab...O.O

[kaialone]

und doch spielt er auch beim Phantom der Oper mit

[KullakeX]

Wow, das ist widerum lobenswert

[kaialone]

Ja er ist ds Phantom :D

[Alex1710XVII]

In der Originalaufnahme aus Wien ist er das Phantom. Der Mann hat echt eine tolle Stimme.

[5Cloudy5]

ich liebe nightmare before christmas ♥

[Rooiku]

wow die deutsche stimme passt super.

Find es toll das es noch gute synchros gibt die versuchen dem orginal möglich nahe zu kommen

einfach toll!!

[AyakoEmerald]

der film war wirklich toll! ^^

was ich bis heute nicht weiß: ist jack jetzt ein "kürbis" oder ein "skelett" ? es heißt in nem anderen lied ja Er ist der "kürbiskönig" ... ö.ö

[PepeHanni]

er ist ein skelett.

nur es gibt so einen wettbewerb und er hat halt gewonnen.. also ist er der kürbiskönig...

[AyakoEmerald]

danke x3

[smashbrother102]

nein, er ist derjenige, der dafür sorgt, das halloween stattfindet

[Ichliebegermany]

Ich habe nicht immer denken wie das.

[DappaCappa]

er ist ein Skelett aber trägt den Titel Pumpkin-King..bzw Kürbiskönig ^^

[Izaya4EVER]

@AyakoEmerald "Kürbiskönig" ist ja nur ein Titel ;)

[Izaya4EVER]

@AyakoEmerald oh...shit, ist ja schon ein Jahr her xD sry^^

[LiiKeXLoVE]

<3<3<3<3<3<3

ich liebe diesen film.. eine besseren gibt es einfach icht!

ich.. ich glaube ich mag danny lieber als jack...

das ist mein lieblingslied aus dem film<3

[FynnRain]

mhhm ich finde die deutsche stimme viel... feinfühliger was eigentlich gut zum charakter passt,... aber der sänger der englischen version macht die vielen akzente viel besser :)

[DarkCrystal49]

boah ich hab den film ewig nicht mehr gesehen!! ich liebe ihn!! und den hund xD

[superkandy12]

Ich liebe dieses lied und den Film auch!

[sasuke10fan]

TY TY i love this i speak a little german and i like this becasue i can understand just a little

[Xtra15]

[ph4zz]

[mico3<]

In fact, the french version is better ^^
