Derrick Theme Song

[TheWuschelMUC]

The tune still haunts me. However, Les Humphries stole it from Dmitri Zhostakovich's Jazz Suite (1931). Listen to the "Second Waltz" and you'll recognize it!

[TomTrix99]

derricks crime solve percentage was pretty high! lol. great show though

[TheWuschelMUC]

There was a genuine inspector of the Munich police who had a similar percentage. His name was Udo Nagel, nicknamed Mr 100 per cent. He later became senator of the Interior in Hamburg.

[PaulMax1957]

Back in the 90's I think, a local TV station showed a block of foreign language shows and Derrick was one of them and I fell in love with this show. Does anyone know if that is Horst Tappert as the helicopter pilot in the film Where Eagles Dare?? Looks like him. He gets killed by Clint Eastwood.

[valeriolobascio]

grazie horst tappert la tua gentilezza che mostravi attraverso il tuo personaggio sarà per sempre ricordata!!!

[sam22002084]

KULT KULT einfach nur KULT 

[Langvlegselnooi]

This was my most favourite show. I'm from South Africa, it was dubbed to Afrikaans.

[zendakk]

@Langvlegselnooi Howzit! Used to watch it with the TV volume down and Radio 2000 broadcasting the original German :)

[helge540]

Police all over the world have a lot to learn from Derrick

[Nixo73]

Horst Tappert for president!

[ragnarthelibrarian]

Norwegian state TV is showing Derrick today , 2011.

[kjokken0]

like melodien av denne heheheh

[JWolf8911]

Ich bin von Ungarn, und ich mag diese Krimi, ich habe viel Episode gesicht. :)

Horst Tappert lebt noch?

[Drigges1]

@JWolf8911 ...leider nicht...

[JWolf8911]

@Drigges1 :(

[Mountandblandefan]

@JWolf8911 Nein. Horst died in December 2008, I think.

[SalvatoreSalieri]

What is this song called?

[Miriamele100]

@SalvatoreSalieri I think it's a version of Shostakovich' Second Waltz arranged by Les Humphries.

[UsPolicecar]

harry hol den wagen

die pflicht ruft ^^

[vandenende1]

Harry, mache den Kanone weg, sonnst knallt's!

[bo666dom]

RIP Horst Tappert

[wiwiet79]

de beste duitser aller tijden is Derrick

[michelvanwijk1970]

@wiwiet79 Ik dacht dat de beste Duitser een dode Duitser was :-)

[megatron291]

@michelvanwijk1970 racist

[Atvishees]

@michelvanwijk1970 Sehr witzig.

genial serie und superb musci of intro.

[Anderleb]

Beste deutsche Krimiserie....!

[Biloutebelge1969]

DERRICK : Absolute Hammer !!

[TheWatcherBis]

Derrick est une série atrocement lente mais comparé à Maigret c'est un TGV Est face à une charrette de boeufs.

[FreddyKurz]

Absoluter Kultkrimi mit schauspielerischer Meisterleistung von Horst Tappert

[eltfell]

Hat nicht mal ein Schlaumeier mal herausgefunden, daß Derrick irgendwann tatsächlich mal Harry gebeten hat, den Wagen zu holen?

[EstellaMayy]

@eltfell

Stimmt - in der Folge "Johanna" .

Allerdings sagt er nicht: "Harry, hol schon mal den Wagen.", sondern: "Harry, wir brauchen den Wagen.Sofort."

Sogar hier bei Youtube unter: DERRICK - "Harry, wir brauchen den Wagen" zu finden. :-)

[gbattuti]

wonderbar diese serie...giuseppe from italy

[bv161181]

Warum haben Serien heute nicht mehr so geniale Intros? Und warum habe ich das Gefühl, dass auch niemand mehr so recht an die Qualität der Schauspieler denkt... Horst Tappert war der coolste TV-Bulle im deutschen Fernsehen!

[Westerwaelder]

@bv161181 : Oberinspektor...Bulle klingt für ihn zu hart...

[bv161181]

@Westerwaelder Okay hast recht. Oberinspektor :)

[Tudattalan]

Derrick hat nicht gestorben, er bleibt mit uns für immer !!!

[jogwolf]

je regardais sa avec mon pere lorsque jetais gamin, je detestais mais la jadore

[itchytrigga2]

Our german language teacher used to show Derrick episodes that he had taped on VHS. Then put plastic tape over the subtitles and leave the classroom.

[polghirstenskoetter]

@itchytrigga2 LOL, interesting way to teach German...

[bukkake999]

@itchytrigga2 Was your teacher Cameron Diaz? lol

[hendry79]

"Derrick" war wohl eine der erfolgreichsten deutschen Krimiserien, auch wenn ich leider nur vereinzelte Folgen gesehen habe. Das war echt gute Krimiunterhaltung.

[MrLyzonn]

putain la montée à 1:23 puissant

[kirmizigulm]

I'm a Italian but i like this music much more than Italian godfather music.

[republicain85]

@kirmizigulm

It sounds also Russian. I like it ;)

[Glamourleichensack]

@republicain85 ...yes indeed: the waltz is shostakowitch!

[Saruman38]

@Glamourleichensack It sounds like the Shostakovitch waltz but it's not exactly the same tune.

[majesticorn]

sailor moon?

[IoanTepes]

Madame Hochstetter, je dois parler à votre mari!!

[DelGalaxy]

last year my german teacher played this... only because my name is derrick :L

[CrixMakin]

Not right now, Derrick! I'm enjoying a treat, Derrick!

[shavedeyeball]

[MsSarjen]

@Juanpb1983 But is it true that the Cold War and the splitting of Berlin was never mentioned in this show during its 20 years? I seem to have heard something like that, and it's a little cute to think about.

[pornokrat]

I can't find this TV series anywhere but I want to watch it.

[Juditta84]

It's a great theme song!

[heypero]

What a great melody and tv show.I think in the 80`s this was among the first German tv episodes to broadcast in Yugoslavia whit a huge success!

[chanctonbury63]

@heypero Better than watching Tito give a 5 hour speech anyway.

[spukie666]

Damit bin ich aufgewachsen. XY durfte auch nicht verhlen.

[mybluebelly]

Ahh.. Derrick macht spassss! I`m hooked again! Norway

[PomyCollingwood]

Derrick was all right. Good ol' European whodunnit wannabe... But had to start someplace, huh? Let's say I enjoyed it back then, but didn't nail me to the screen. The theme song is funny tho'.

POMY COLLINGWOOD

[stefanfouche1]

I grew up with Derrick.Only thing is that it was translated into english here in South Africa during the apartheid era.After all the years,the theme song was in my head,discovering it on you tube brought tears to my eyes.There will only be one detective --the king of all--Derrick.rest in peace,Horst Tappert

[ghanaholland]

@stefanfouche1 im born in the netherlands where this was on tv and it was in german because the tv in holland dit not dub ,but yes he was the best

[CyrilKlopper]

@stefanfouche1

Stefan, I think you are mistaken about the English translation

Derrick het Afrikaans gepraat met die oorspronklike Duitse klankbaan op Radio2000

I can't remember the name of voice artist for Derrick but I know he recently did a cameo on the soap; 7de Laan

[Nigella72]

solche Krimis gibts heute leider nicht mehr, schade.

Greetings from Norway

[pleasureman666]

Die wohl langweiligste Fernsehserie der Welt... dafür hat sie aber eines der besten Themen, die je komponiert wurden! Danke fürs reinstellen... und danke für die fabelhafte Qualität!!!

The BEST criminal series ever!

[hoppjuliska1]

A gyerekkoromat idézi ez a sorozat, jó volt a film is, de a zene az fantasztikus. Mindig szaladtunk a tévé elé, ha megszólalt. 

[immerrocknroll]

Extrem cool!

[EIRIYUKILOVER4EVA]

=D awesome lmao

[haranghy]

Harry, hol schon mal den Wagen :)

[MrPasdeprisonnier]

J'adore cette série!! Et la musique y est pour un peu...

[tristanmenard44]

[bv161181]

Fahr schon einmal den Wagen vor.... Harry :D

Unschlagbar. Warum hatten die früher bessere Intros als heute?

[7thSmurf]

@bv161181 du wirst lachen , aber früher waren nicht nur die intros besser 8).. auch das was dann kam ..^^

[bv161181]

@7thSmurf Ja das stimmt auch. Ich bin 81er Jahrgang. Zwar kenn ich die Serien nicht mehr aus erster Hand, aber mit meinem Dad oder meinem Opa habe ich die besten geschaut und finde, da können sich die meisten Serien heute eine ganze Scheibe abschneiden!

[thenodfather]

It reminds me of the Peter Gunn theme in parts, the start for example.

Minden idők legjobb krimisorozata volt,Colombo felügyelő elbújhatott mellette.

Most újra elkezdték adni az összes évadot,nem is hagyom ki.

Köszönet Horst Tappert!

[MakkaPakka666]

In Norway we were pissed off that the Germans invaded our country, but then they gave us Derrick and we were friends again.

[iwax64]

Agree with that!

I'm shocked to see that Horst Tappert passed away already, two years ago.

May he rest in peace and THANK YOU - thank Germany - for all crimi series (on tv only) that you brought to us, worldwide!!

[szepremenyu]

@MakkaPakka666 LOL

@maus1971able

das lustige ist, das der Satz mit Harry nie in Derrick gesagt wurde - trotzdem ist es ein Synonym für Derrick geworden, weil es einfach gut hineinpassen würde

[spukie666]

@MBBonn

Stimmt,das war eine Erfindung von der RTL Samstagnacht Show.
