Karel Gott - "Rot und schwarz" (Paint it Black, 1969) Rolling Stones

Karel Gott, the Golden Voice of Prague, was smart enough to release a German folk version of the rock evergreen "Paint it Black" back in 1969. It's a must listen if you like strange cover versions. Here you get a slavic twist! This version was released on his 1969 LP "In einer Welt für uns zwei". At this point he already had three top ten hits in Germany - several hits would follow.

Ich bin totaler SchlagerFan und finde diese Kuriosität einfach nur köstlich.Sie zeigt seine Bandbreite und das er auch mal musikalisch total ausflippen kann.

Sein "Brüllen" am Ende erinnert mich etwas an das fröhliche Krähen von Pumuckl im Vorspann von ";Meister Eder und sein Pumuckl".(gegen Ende des Vorspannes)

First listen: Wut da fuck is that?

Second listen: Well...not that bad.

Third listen: That's actually quite catchy.

Fourth listen: THIS IS GENIUS.

@RickPennys This is by far an unlikliest attempt to get some idiot schlager singer into rock-and-roll, Disgusting!!! as can ever be.

You would have to know "something" about this idiot Karel Gott.

This is by far my favourite cover of a Rolling Stones song ever.

@caaosstv You mean for us to Google "Karel Gott Weltbekannt"???

Don't be ridiculous and it looks to me it's time for you to hit the bed.

@MrBookHD Entschuldige mir bitte.I don't speak Deutsch. You must be related to Buddha or Allah. Very different from where I came from

Do you truly believe in what you're saying? Karel Gott?

@brightandsunny9

Ich weiß ja nicht welches üble Kraut Du gerade geraut hast oder welche Probleme Dich sonst so gedanklich einschränken, aber nutze einfach mal Google, die Versionen sind weltbekannt...

I do not know what evil weed you just napped or what kind of problems may restrict yourself intellectually, but sometimes just use Google, that are world-known versions...

@smolnickaaa01 How retarded were you in High School? Have you graduated from there? Saying "Bravo Karel Gott" to a song he's had nothing to do with and "took in" only because his "Schlager" needed some kick in the butt, is insulting to the rest of us.

@caaosstv Du bist ein ingnorant. Deep Purple or Eric Burton have never done any version of this song. Rolling Stones have came up with this song and that's it!

Karel Gott war einige mensch who screwed it up more than any could have!!!

[caaosstv]

Die Version kannte ich bis eben noch nicht, wirklich schräg...

Empfehle die Version von Deep Purple in der längeren Version, aber auch nicht jedermanns Geschmack.

Eric Burdon hat auch was draus gemacht.

Bravo Karel Gott
