| brolin_empey | Is Doch Ich Habe Dich Geliebt the same song as Always On My Mind but in German instead of English? I am not fluent in German but track 12 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mC64ekq29PQ sounds like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDe60CbIagg ? DocScrutinizer05 or anyone else who can understand the German lyrics, are they the same song? | 01:36 |
|---|---|---|
| DocScrutinizer05 | sorry, that's over one hour of music I don't like to listen to right now | 01:37 |
| brolin_empey | Track 12 begins at approximately 54m52s. | 01:40 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no idea, either a german remake or a rip-off | 01:47 |
| brolin_empey | Are the lyrics the same or close in the two songs? I do not know enough spoken German words to understand enough of the lyrics to tell. | 01:50 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I got a poor audio decoding processor that fails even with german songs. And I don't know the english lyrics at all | 01:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I got a few german sentence fractions annd nothing english to compare them to | 01:53 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | except the obvious "you are always on my mind" vs "doch ich habe dich geliebt" which obviously isn't a straight translation but might be close enough | 01:55 |
| brolin_empey | The English lyrics are sung in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDe60CbIagg and must be available as text on the Internet too. | 01:56 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | there once been https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Night_They_Drove_Old_Dixie_Down and a German singer made from that a "Am Tag als Johny Cramer starb" or somesuch, and anti-drugs song. Are those two identical or aren't they? Heck I don't know | 01:57 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-Sw7UKbtE4 | 01:58 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | btw one of the most pathetic bullshit songs ever made (latter one) | 01:59 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | Conny Cramer smokes some "bitter smoke" to get into a land of color and light and soon after dies from it | 02:01 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I'm not inclined to learn the complete story/plot of "Always On My Mind" and then compare to see how close the german lyrics stay with the original plot and mood | 02:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | it's definitely and obviously no accurate translation | 02:04 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | up to you to make your notion about "[you're] Always On My Mind" vs (german) "But I did love you" | 02:06 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | another german fragment was like "I believe love can never die" | 02:08 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | stay with me and we start all over anew | 02:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | no matter whatever happens | 02:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I did love you | 02:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | I do love you | 02:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ENOUGH!!! | 02:13 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | seems there's a madonna song | 02:14 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | prolly just happens to sound similar. The composer program had a hiccup | 02:15 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | btw youtube has "Copy URL at current position" | 02:16 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | https://youtu.be/mC64ekq29PQ?t=3293 | 02:18 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | ask GEMA / RIAA if that guy pays royalties to original composer | 02:19 |
| DocScrutinizer05 | if he does then he and others think it's a remake of "always on my mind" | 02:21 |
| brolin_empey | I know that YouTube has that command but I was not listening to the album on YouTube, I was playing a local copy of the “video” I downloaded with youtube-dl. | 02:26 |
| brolin_empey | I mean I was using Winamp to play a local copy of the “video” I downloaded with youtube-dl. | 02:28 |
| brolin_empey | The search function of Google Calendar for Android does not find some of my past events that Google Calendar for Web finds but I do not know why the two versions behave differently. | 09:46 |
| brolin_empey | It is strange to have my calendar software not find something I know was on my calendar, though. | 18:20 |
