LET'S START THIS THREAD WITH THE PROPER EMOTICON --->
This Christmas season, I'm having a Blossom/Blümchen revival.
Some of her songs are part of what got me into Happy Hardcore in the first place! At my first Hardcore party, in 2003, a local dj played her cover of Queen's Bicycle Race, and it was also on a demo that dj handed to the crowd during his set.
Share your memories of the queen of 90's cheeze! XD

Have something like 3 albums from her, still listen them pretty often. Reise Durch Die Zeit and Verrückte Jungs are my favourite tunes.

^^^^
lol @ the bagpipes! I really like that song =)
My favorites from her have to be Baby Baby, You & Me and Just A Dream, but I like pretty much all of her >170bpm tracks. Some of the slower ones aren't bad either.

Well for starters the lyrics only have a meaning to me when I hear them in English, since I don't speak German, and the sing-along factor is also important for me (you DO NOT want to hear me singing along in German, English is bad enough with my French accent :P). Jasmin's voice is great no matter what language it's in, don't you find?
Anyways, the first song I heard from her is Bicycle Race, and it's an English song from the start. I didn't know she was German until later on, so I got used to her English songs from the beginning. When I first heard the German versions, I though they sounded off to me, but it's not the case anymore :P

I don't understand German either, thats why i read lyric translations :P I couldn't sing-a-long in English properly either, but thats not stopping me
...at least when i'm home alone where nobody can hear me.
