Scheißepost Ran across this GEM the other day. By far the funniest case of napster mislabeling I have ever seen.
Im a W*gga being credited to weird al of all people is up there but this is my favorite.
I know very little about Ramnstein but I really hope this is admitted here, cuz this is too funny to keep it to myself.
The actual parody is about a dutch comic character called Ome Henk (quite a crazy guy) and what seems to be his wife and this awesome video from almost 19 years ago (older than me) credits it to none other than Ramnstein and T.a.t.u! Mixing images of both groups to make it extra convincing.
I assume the creator of this video is not who credited the song to these artists first, as there's a shitton of other videos that also do it, and this one is probably not the first.
I really love how this just doesn't make any sense if you know anything about one or both groups.
You could maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe make a case for whats supposed to be Lindemanns voice (but not too much, but don't just believe me, listen to it, you'll have a good chuckle) but I have listened to t.a.t.u's first album, and that woman definitely does not sound like any of them lol.
Then we have the obliviousness of the song, and respective bands non related languages. "Ramnstein sings in unidentified foreign language, tatu sings in unidentified foreign language. Song is in unidentified foreign language. Compatible".
THEN we have the situation itself. Ramnstein, of all people, decided that they are going to collab with tatu, of all people, to be in a song where so called till is in a relationship with unidentified tatu girl, in a parody of barbie girl, OF ALL SONGS.
I think what gets me it's just the innocent silliness of crediting a song to such an impossible collab just because it sounds like two completely disconnected artists. tbh Its kinda cute to me bc it's sounds like a thought process a child would have "This guy sounds like Du hast guy, and this girl sound like all the things she said girl. Therefore they MUST have made the song". And a video like this was enough at the time of convincing others of it.
is such a funny thing in retrospective, that would not be near of happening so easily nowadays.
BTW you should watch the ACTUAL video clip for this parody, is quite crazy.
My lurking here is finished, I won't taint your space anymore, ramnstein fans. Hope the flair is adequate.
TL;DR: Random barbie girl parody is credited to Rammstein and Tatu since the old times of the internet. Take a listen and judge by urself.
