**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Apr 30 02:59:57 2019 Apr 30 23:36:17 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? Apr 30 23:37:35 sorry, that's over one hour of music I don't like to listen to right now Apr 30 23:40:55 Track 12 begins at approximately 54m52s. Apr 30 23:47:50 no idea, either a german remake or a rip-off Apr 30 23:50:42 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. Apr 30 23:53:04 I got a poor audio decoding processor that fails even with german songs. And I don't know the english lyrics at all Apr 30 23:53:57 I got a few german sentence fractions annd nothing english to compare them to Apr 30 23:55:02 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 Apr 30 23:56:32 The English lyrics are sung in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDe60CbIagg and must be available as text on the Internet too. Apr 30 23:57:55 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 Apr 30 23:58:36 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-Sw7UKbtE4 Apr 30 23:59:52 btw one of the most pathetic bullshit songs ever made (latter one) May 01 00:01:30 Conny Cramer smokes some "bitter smoke" to get into a land of color and light and soon after dies from it May 01 00:04:13 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 May 01 00:04:47 it's definitely and obviously no accurate translation May 01 00:06:54 up to you to make your notion about "[you're] Always On My Mind" vs (german) "But I did love you" May 01 00:08:06 another german fragment was like "I believe love can never die" May 01 00:13:16 stay with me and we start all over anew May 01 00:13:25 no matter whatever happens May 01 00:13:30 I did love you May 01 00:13:49 I do love you May 01 00:13:55 ENOUGH!!! May 01 00:14:13 seems there's a madonna song May 01 00:15:08 prolly just happens to sound similar. The composer program had a hiccup May 01 00:16:33 btw youtube has "Copy URL at current position" May 01 00:18:08 https://youtu.be/mC64ekq29PQ?t=3293 May 01 00:19:54 ask GEMA / RIAA if that guy pays royalties to original composer May 01 00:21:01 if he does then he and others think it's a remake of "always on my mind" May 01 00:26:33 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. May 01 00:28:00 I mean I was using Winamp to play a local copy of the “video” I downloaded with youtube-dl. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed May 01 02:59:57 2019
