Dear depressed losers

you are thinking negative, dressed in dark, lovers of below zero, humourless, longing for sad nights - YEAH we Cohenists have many trademarks but in reality we are fun-junkies.

From all the drugs in the world we are about to experience the most refreshing one: Polka !!!!

If all goes right a nice big bang will close the event - and not only those who dance begin to dance !

The 2/4 time rocks and off we go. Berlin-Speed-Polka presented by 10 wild men

on Sunday, August 13, Universal Hall, Berlin-Moabit

But Henning - I enjoy dressing in black, acting depressed and negative :D

I don't think I can cope with this, Henning! It sounds like just TOO much fun :)

As a former Tetris addict, I just had to listen to the snippet of Tetris Polka, and I haven't stopped laughing yet. The only lyric on the sample was "Wer hat mein Gameboy versteckt?" (Who has hidden my Gameboy!) :lol:

I can't find the samples. I click on the Amazon link, that says it'll bring you to them, but faced with all those German words, I can't tell which might be it. Any help here?

Lizzy, scroll down until you see the word "Hörbeispiele". Beneath it is a numbered list. This is a list of tracks on the CD. Click on any of them to hear a sound sample.

Ali - nothing wrong with dressing in black - nothing wrong with being depressed - it's just that we are a lot more than all this and that we are really a funny group.

Linda - I have that CD here at home and yes, you translated it right. I never had a gameboy except for the one that I brought with me into my life :-)
