are you sure about the text? Lieber lieber Mäelzel - ok. Leben sie wohl, sie wohl. But I don't understand the next part - the wod "baner" is'nt german. Or maybe you had written it by hearing? Perhaps it should be "bann er die Zeit, bann er die Zeit?"
PS: I'm an half italian and half german, who went to school and lived nearly all his life in the near of Bonn. So excuse me for my bad english. But german is my mother language, so I'm very interested in this story. :D
hehe, I didn't know the tune had such humble beginnings. it's the allegretto from the eighth symphony. Do I win the complete symphonies of Beethoven as a prize? No? Bah!!
"tata...Lieber lieber Mätzel.ta ta... lebet wohl, sehr wohl. ta ta... Banner der Zeit, Banner der Zeit, tata... Großer, großer Metronom. Großer Metronom, ta ta...
Love this canon!

Thanks. I made a better version by digging up the history of it and including the Symphony that it is part of.

Whoops. I apologize for the text. I didn't have the score at the time I uploaded this song and never got around to correcting it, you're right.

Ah, I see. I'm only curious. But you understand after all what the text mean?
After all, it is a demonstration of Beethoven's humouros personality.

well, i learned this canon in school, so i know that the text is: Banner der Zeit, Banner der Zeit (i.e. "er bannte die Zeit").

Yep...pretty good. :) I had no idea Beethoven was such a joker. Too bad, but I don't know what the reference is.
