Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder ein Girattensolo hören

Liner Notes

This song had been floating around in my head for months, so I finally used the FAWM motivation to write and record it. Quite happy with the result :) #guitar #german #lyrics #funny #athmospheric

Lyrics

Original German Lyrics (English translation below):

Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder ein Gitarrensolo hören Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder ein Gitarrensolo hören Wie könnt ihr eure Songs denn nur mit sowas so zerstören? Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder Nie wieder Nie wieder

Hohohoho

Sie schreit sie fiept Sie quietscht sie zerrt Feedback YEAH Ich hör den Ton nicht mehr Die Melodie Sie scheint so fern Ich wünscht ich müsste das Gewichse nicht mehr hörn

Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder ein Gitarrensolo hören Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder ein Gitarrensolo hören Wie könnt ihr eure Songs denn nur mit sowas so zerstören? Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder ein Gitarrensolo hören

Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder alte Männerchöre hören Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder einen Dubstepremix hören Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder Fake Patoi Im Reggae hören Ich hoff ich muss nie wieder Nie wieder Nie wieder

English translation: I hope I never have to hear a guitar solo again I hope I never have to hear a guitar solo again How can you destroy your songs with something like that? I hope I never have to again Never again Never again

Hohohoho

It screams, it squeaks It squeals it tugs Feedback YEAH I don't hear the sound anymore The melody it seems so distant I wish I didn't have to listen to this full on wank any longer

I hope I never have to hear a guitar solo again I hope I never have to hear a guitar solo again How can you destroy your songs with something like that? I hope I never have to hear a guitar solo again

I hope I never have to hear old men's choirs again I hope I never have to hear a dubstep remix again I hope I never have to listen to Fake Patoi in Reggae again I hope I never have to again Never again Never again

You know you're pretty much describing everything I've recorded this month, right? Apart from the reggae, that is. No more guitar solos? (Bursts into tears)

I'm with you on the guitar solos! The only thing more boring is the drum solos that were so popular a thousand years ago when I was still in school. So glad you were inspired to write a song about them! 😀

@mrsqueeze and @nadine You aren't alone with this. I've never understood the musical point of guitar solos. And me having heavy background in metal, I've endured quite a many guitar solos.

Anyway, this is also quite a beautiful song. Very harmonic, and got a nice flow.

Very interesting and relatable lyrics. I asked myself if I'm the only one who couldn't enjoy 2 minute solos. The endless wait for something to happen. And yet your lyrics could have a sense of "Now you're gone I hope I don't hear stuff that reminds me of you".

I like how the complaint expands in that last stanza to encompass some more elements your narrator/persona doesn't want to listen to. The lyrics feel nicely weighted that way, not static.

Really like the change which comes in around 1:45, reminded me a bit of the Flaming lips. Glad you finally managed to get it down. Thanks for sharing and have a great FAWM
