It is about a lonely walk into the dark forest during which the protagonist expresses his mourning over the loss of a loved woman. Here it is performed by Songgroup, of Gymnasium Olbernhau, on the Day of the Open School Door, on March 1, 2008. Ohne Dich Ich werde in die Tannen gehn, Dahin wo ich sie zuletzt gesehen, Doch der Abend wirft ein Tuch aufs Land, Und auf die Wege hinterm Waldesrand, Und der Wald er steht so Schwarz und leer, Weh mir, oh Weh, Und die Vögel singen nicht mehr. [Refrain] Ohne dich kann ich nicht sein, Ohne dich. Mit dir bin ich auch allein, Ohne dich. Ohne dich zähl ich die Stunden, Ohne dich. Mit dir stehen die Sekunden, lohnen nicht. Auf den Ästen in den Gräben, Ist es nun still und ohne Leben. Und das Atmen fällt mir ach so schwer, Weh mir, oh weh, Und die Vögel singen nicht mehr. [Refrain] Ohne dich kann ich nicht sein, Ohne dich. Mit dir bin ich auch allein, Ohne dich. Ohne dich zähl ich die Stunden, Ohne dich. Mit dir stehen die Sekunden, lohnen nicht, Ohne dich. Without you I will go into the forest Where I last saw her But the evening is throwing a cloth on the country And on the trails behind the edge of the forest And the forest is standing black and empty Woe is me, oh woe is me And the birds stopped their singing [Refrain] Without you I cannot be, Without you. With you I am alone as well, Without you. Without you I count the hours, Without you. With you the seconds are standing still, are not worth the effort. On the branches, in the ditches It is now quiet and without life And breathing, alas, is difficult for me Woe is me, oh woe is me And the birds stopped their singing [Refrain] Without you I cannot be, Without you. With you I am alone as well, Without you. Without you I count the hours, Without you. With you the seconds are standing still, are not worth the effort, Without you.

Pétanque 2008: German Championships Tête-à-tête in Halle (Final) NOTE: THIS VIDEO NOW RUNS MUTE BECAUSE SPOILSPORT NEIL YOUNG HAS BLOCKED IT, CLAIMING THAT HE "OWNS" SOME OF THE CONTENT. But, in fact, there was only a small section in which a brief excerpt of his music was used, so the action is hardly understandable and doesn't make much sense. I THEREFORE RECOMMEND TO BOYCOTT THE PRODUCTS OF THIS ARTIST! (I will upload a new version of this final, just using the original sound, as soon as possible.) The German Championships in the categories tête-à-tête and tir précision were held in Halle (Saxony-Anhalt), on the shores of the Saale river. Jean-Luc Testas (BF Malsch), who earlier on had won the Tireur title, also made it into the Tête final, where his opponent was Jannik Schaake, from reigning German Club Champions BC Mannheim-Sandhofen, who last year finished fifth in the team event of the World Championship in Pattaya (Thailand). Added music is by Mortal Love ("I make the mistake") and by Neil Young ("Dead Man"). Tags: Pétanque Boule Halle Saxony-Anhalt Jean-Luc Testas Jannik Schaake Mortal Love Neil Young |

"Der Laden" ("The Shop"), from "Die sieben Gaben" "The Seven Gifts" is the new play presented by school theatre group Art Shock from Gymnasium Olbernhau (Olbernhau Grammar School). It is a play about life and what it consists of: love, happiness and loss. It also contains a lot of music and songs, the most impressive of which certainly is "The Shop", originally created by East German songwriter Gerhard Schöne in 1994. Here it is performed on the Day of the Open School Door, on March 1, 2008. Der Laden War es Traum oder wirklich, als ich in dieser Stadt irgendwo in Gedanken jenen Laden betrat? Hinterm Tisch dieser Händler wirkte irgendwie fremd. Verbarg mühsam zwei Flügel unterm lichtweißen Hemd. Das Regal war bis unter die Decke voll mit Tüten und Schachteln gestellt. Doch im Dämmerlicht konnt' ich nicht sehen, was die eine um die andre enthält. Nun ich fragte den Händler: "Was verkaufen Sie hier?" "Alles, was sie sich wünschen, alles gibt es bei mir. Das, wonach Sie sich sehnen, was froh machen kann, was Sie schon nicht mehr hofften, alles biete ich an." Oh, wie hab' ich mich da vor dem Händler mit dem Wünsche aufsagen beeilt: "Sie, ich möchte das Schweigen der Waffen und die Brötchen viel besser verteilt! Mehr Verstand in die Köpfe. Aus den Augen die Gier. Eltern Zeit für die Kinder. Achtung vor jedem Tier. Helle Zimmer für alle. Arbeit, je nach Talent..." Als ich Luft holen wollte, sprach er:"Kleinen Moment! Sicher haben Sie mich falsch verstanden. Wie ich hör', woll'n Sie Früchte bei mir. Ach nein, nein, ich verkauf keine Früchte, nur die Samen dafür..." The Shop Was it a dream or was it real, when I stepped into that shop a little confusedly ? The dealer behind the table somehow had a strange appearance. He tried to hide two wings underneath his glaringly white shirt The shelves were full with bags and boxes, but in the half-light I couldn't see what was inside of them. I asked the dealer: "What is it you're selling?" "All that you like, I've got everything. The things that you long for, things that can cheer you up, I have got on offer everything that you no longer hoped for." Oh, how I hurried to tell my wishes to that dealer there in front of me: "Listen, I'd like the silence of weapons and a better distribution of bread. More sense and understanding for our heads, and greed out of sight. Parents with time for their children. Respect for the animals. Bright rooms for everyone. Work, according to vocation..." Just as I wanted to go on, he said: "Hold on! You have certainly misunderstood me. As it seems you want to buy fruit. But no, I'm not selling any fruit. I have just got the seeds..."
