New Single 'Feel'

Re: New Single 'Feel'
It's been out over a week - doesn't that seem a little slow for Radio 1? Maybe the BBC had no idea the Boys would be dropping it either!

Re: New Single 'Feel'
Does anybody have the lyrics for Schlager deutsche version ? I've seen them posted somewhere here but can't find it.

Es ist ohne Glück zu trauen
In haselnussbraun, schwarz und braun
Singe stattdessen fröhliche Lieder
Wenn der Winter kommt
Glühwein, Wurst und Sauerkraut
Sonne und Sangria
Wir rasen auf einem Schnellboot
Wir fahren nach Shangri-La
Die Zukunft ist die Gegenwart
Musik muss gespielt werden
Es ist Weihnachten oder Sommer
In der Schlager Hitparade
Sexy, sexy, sexy
Gesunde Mädchen und Jungen
Hochzeiten sind wie Weihnachten
Wir können uns alle freuen
Die Zukunft ist die Gegenwart
Musik muss gespielt werden
Es ist Weihnachten oder Sommer
In der Schlager Hitparade
Never trust a leader
It probably won't end well
The leader of the band
He knows what he won‘t tell
The future is the presence
We all regret the past
Cheers to Europa
Let‘s hope it’s gonna last
Lachen und vergessen
Weshalb ich immer warten würde (?)
Die Vergangenheit ist mir passiert

Die Zukunft ist die Gegenwart

Re: New Single 'Feel'
Everybody Will Dance is a great track.
I have a lovely 12 track bonus album now if you take the 5 tracks from Lost, and 7 additional tracks that have been released on the 4 single releases. We really have been spoilt !
First time in a long time that I wouldn't swap any of those 12 tracks for any of the songs on the album though.

I think it's more like:
At least from a german perspective, these sentences make a lot more sense.Lachen und vergessen,
was auch immer verraten wurde.
Die Vergangenheit ist nie passiert
in der Schlager Hitparade.
Basically, I think it's actually a funny idea to record a german version and to see Chris so exuberant in a video. After all, you only hear his voice very rarely in PSB songs. But the video is full of clichés. I didn't like the lyrics in the english version either, because I find them far too presumptuous and there's hardly a passage that I would identify with, even though I'm actually patriotic. But that's been the case with many other PSB songs too. Anyway... many other languages, such as Portuguese, have also been used in PSB songs in the past, and now there's a song in German, although I would have preferred fewer or no sarcastic lyrics.
Otherwise, I think "Feel" is a good choice as a single, because it's one of the strongest and most nostalgic songs on the album. I especially like "Everybody will dance", although I prefer the original version to the Superchumbo remix.

Re: New Single 'Feel'
That's an interesting point and I think you're in a better position than most to judge!
Guess I saw this song as more "European" rather than strictly German. It's somewhat dark, in any case, and might not pass as Schlager in itself? (though I'm no expert)
I think the existence of this Lowe version is evidence they considered it for some type of focused release.
Geowayne doesn't list any history, wonder if the idea of this track came about during Hotspot, being their Berlin album and all?
Re: New Single 'Feel'
I wonder if the idea for the Schlager song came from Munich in 1990

Re: New Single 'Feel'
Thanks to that single i started to like more this song, the radio edit starts better than the album version. I finally get this song and the line "you make me feel like nobody else can" reminds me of Heart "Every time I see you something happens to me" or "but every time I see you, you have the same effect".

Re: New Single 'Feel'
Now on the BBC 6 Music playlist (B list). It’s the third single from Nonetheless to be play-listed by 6 Music (and all four have been A-listed by Radio 2).
Re: New Single 'Feel'
Feel. It's been months now and I listen to this song every day and it's constantly running through my head. It hasn't been like this for a long time. It's a masterpiece.
Re: New Single 'Feel'
It's a great song. I prefer the album edit to the radio edit, mainly because I love that first rush of melody, with the gorgeous string part.
I'm really looking forward to hearing the demo on the expanded Nonetheless.
