William's Song a Day Blog - est. September 2007

1339 Oomph! featuring Nina Hagen - Feiber From: Plastik , Year: 1999 Oomph!'s Plastik album has been getting a lot of play from me this morning and I figured that I would choose one of their songs today as well. This track features the vocal work of the incomparable Nina Hagen; I've always loved her amazing vocals. She performs an excellent duet in this song with Dero Goi; their vocals compliment each other quite well. Watch the music video on YouTube. A live performance circa '02 on YouTube. My song pick a year ago today: The Guess Who - Minstrel Boy My song pick two years ago today: Metallica - Nothing Else Matters My song pick three years ago today: Steely Day - Rikki Don't Lose That Number +

I have been picking some covers lately, and here is another one. This song was originally written and recorded by Rammstein off of the Herzeleid album. I like both versions, however I like the original Rammstein version, ( which can be found here on YouTube ), more. I am picking this version because I loved what Apocalyptica did with the song and I absolutely love Nina Hagen's vocals on this one. Her lower-register vocals are just amazing, she has vocals in this one similar to a Disney movie villainess and almost appears witch-like in the video. A pretty good treat for near Halloween.
