Super Sommer!
Some Song lyrics strike through their simplicity – and often less is more. Listening to German songs this wisdom accompanied me through the last years. Songs just don’t have to tell complicated stories – sometimes they just have to transmit a certain feeling… One of this outstanding songs was “Juli – Die Perfekte Welle”, listening to this song I really a feeling like just getting the wave right and being able to go for the next goals.
This summer I found a similar song from the Austrian Duo Luttenberger/Klug. This song is a good example that you don’t need excessive casting projects to get young people together creating decent music. Sometimes this happens by coincidence. According to an interview the parents of Michelle Luttenberger und Chrissi Klug know each other for quite a long time, and so the two girls got to know each other and their passion for music – what a sweet story..
Anyway, the song “Super Sommer” transmits a relaxed optimistic feeling but also talks about a commitment – although it is just a loose commitment. The main lyrics translate “I want to spend this great summer with you”. I really like this optimistic attitude!
Can this song compete being a summer hit 2006? It’s probably nothing but a shallow pop song.. But maybe it’s more. What do you think?
Have a look at the attached lyrics, watch the video or listen to the song at the girls myspace site.
Super Sommer
Text: Appel/Neuser
wenn sich das Licht in Luftmolekülen spiegelt
wenn sich die warme Luft in unsere Poren saugt
seh ich uns in der Sonne liegen
wir tanken auf
nur mit Licht ins Leben
ich weiss nicht wann
haben wir das letzte Mal das Meer gesehen
es ist soweit, wir gehen los
wir sind bereit für die beste Zeit
ich will mit dir in diesen Super Sommer starten
ich will mit dir durch diesen Super Sommer gehen
es wird viel passiern, weil wir nicht viel erwarten
ausser einen Super Sommer
wir wir Stunden über Stunden
mit geschlossenen Augen in den Himmel sehen
alles vergessen und du erzählst mir von dir
bis der Himmel voller Sterne ist
wir müssen los
lass uns im Mondlicht schwimmen gehen
es ist soweit, wir gehen los
wir sind bereit für die beste Zeit
wir schalten um auf Autopilot
The summer is almost over, but I finally managed to compile a second CD containing my most favourite tracks related to “summer” and “sunshine” (See this post for the first compilation). After some searching it wasn’t too easy to find my favourite songs am

I though it would be nice to gather the songs that I listened to most in 2006. I blogged about a few of them, and those articles are linked. The list is not exactly accurate, since I started using last-fm which helped to create it in March. The list is
