Will you all forgive me if I suddenly start blogging about a corny german band i used to be crazy Obsessed with in a limited fashion every once in a while again actually I probably won't or barely will so don't worry but its because like suddenly was thinking about die ärzte again because the time ivy and I ran into bela b at a neubauten concert sort of half came up in a roundabout way in a completely unrelated conversation and suddenly I'm listening to them again and its making me feel insane because. Well okay they kinda really fell off lately and they were always a tiny bit embarrassing to begin with but also they will literally never not have a special place in my heart because literally the ENTIRE reason I started learning german was because I got into them and wanted to understand interviews well actually more specifically I remember it was because I couldn't find subtitles for richy guitar which i Desperately wanted to watch. Because what do you mean this band im just starting to get into made a movie with Nena 😭 And I will also always love that stupid movie because it then became a benchmark by which I could measure whether my german was improving because everytime I would rewatch it I could understand more and anyways. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't have started learning German at all so they literally changed my life massively in that way but not only that but I met my lifelong best friend because of them who obviously i am still close with to this day because of them because we bonded on this website about both being americans learning german and being into this band and then we later by FUCKING SHEER COINCIDENCE happened to spend a year abroad at the same time in the same german city and reconnecting and thats still the most serendipitous thing that's ever happened to me and I love her to death so like . Thank you bela farin rod anyway I know nobody even knows what I'm on about but I never ever ever go back and revisit them but when I do I always feel so crazy because I'm just like Jesus christ. Anyways I'm just listening to the first album again rn and i was watching interviews last night and im like what am i doing. Is me methodically revisiting my huge obsessions from when I was a teenager i havent really thought about in years just continuing i guess so. I dont know why i keep getting compelled to do that. But whatever
#i think im gonna rewatch richy guitar for the first time in like 5 years tomorrow like oh brother.#i think the other reason ive been thinking about them again is its like well serú girán is kind of my die ärzte for spanish but im#a lot more normal now so its okay. but best way to learn a language i can garuntee you is get obsessed with a band im so serious#anyways i wish i could say that i learned german cuz i was onsessed with neubauten or something else more slayful but no#though the next german band i got into after that was ton steine scherben which yassss#but no . die bäste band der welt sorry#i bought that fucking big ass biography that came out a while ago while i was in germany and still never read it maybe this is the perfect#way to not lose fluency
