In einem großen Musikkatalog auf dem Internet findet man unter dem Stichwort "Germany" neben Marschmusik Titel wie "Trinklieder", oder "Noch mehr Trinklieder", von Interpreten, die hier wohl nicht einmal der eingefleischte Freund der volkstümlichen Musik kennt. Das bekannteste Trinklied dürfte hierzulande "Sieben Tage lang" sein, und das ist von einer holländischen Gruppe (Bots).
Es folgt eine kleine, extrem subjektive Sammlung von Liedern, die zumindest in Ansätzen über die genannten Trinklieder hinausgehen. Diese Sammlung bildete in Form von zwei Kassetten nebst Begleittext ein Abschiedsgeschenk für einen Amerikaner, der an unserem Institut gearbeitet hatte. Die Lied-Texte nebst einigen wenigen Kommentaren (für jemanden gedacht, der einen halben Erdball von der deutschen Musikszene entfernt aufgewachsen ist) sind hier als HTML Files wiedergegeben.

If you can't find something, try my Other
Music Sites, or google.com:
enter a phrase from the song you want, something without umlauts or ß.
Put quotes around it too to search for the exact phrase.

Maybe some of you reading this are native English speakers like me who live in some German-speaking country. If you live in Germany, you might be interested in a web forum I participate in with a guide to all kinds of topics that Expats in Germany find fascinating -- like where to get British and American foods in Germany / Munich, what's fun to do if you don't speak German or where you don't have to speak German to enjoy it. Where to see English language movies or get English language books, that kind of thing. It's called Toytown Germany - Germany's English speaking crowd! If you're moving to Germany it's full of how to find an apartment and where are people meeting up. Many people in a foreign country get tired of having people practice their English on them -- at Toytown, it won't happen. All kinds of events and Stammtisches are listed here, classified ads for people moving to and from the country, jobs wanted and offered and indeed, how to get a job in Germany, where to get good Mexican food in your town or region, where to get a hot curry in Munich (Sitar!), etc. BTW, the site uses Invision Power Board and a wiki and then lots of special modifications programmed in PHP by Editor Bob..
