Bicycle race sounds great and it's originally an English song. Most German rave tracks are in English and they have been their most successful hit's. Like Interactives 'Forever young', Dunes 'Can't stop raving' etc...
One thing that does'nt make sense is the clip with American Football being played. Do Germans even know what it is?? The game is only played in Canada and US.
I guess you missed the part where i said i read the translations of the lyrics, if i care enough to search for it. Often i dont.
Yea i wonder why the english language tracks have been the most succesful tunes in english speaking countries :P Theres shitloads of awesome tunes that arent in english, personally listen a lot of finnish, estonian and japanese tunes.
Also american football is played in a lot more countries then Canada and US. Hell, even my city has a team.

most likely in the US it's because the popularity of the song centers around the lyrics more than the production of the song, hence the reason why we prefer it in english so that we can understand it and sing along to it clearly.
i too listen to music in other language, especially in EDM.
EDIT: the japanese version ain't bad at all, except for the drag queen looking girl as the lead singer. and yes according to the info that is a man
and spanish speakers will understand this spoof the best, but in short "marica" in spanish means gay so the beginin is "gay who? gay you? gay me?" and all that.

I prefer Blümchen more, as i find her singing better in german.
Blaue Augen and Nur Geträumt are my favourites. Hmm... and Automatisch is also good, imo.

haha, ok. All Blumchen tracks follow pretty much the same structure, with that ravey middle part that's slightly different every time.
