Germany does not have Muller in for the Semis, wonder how much that factors in. They still have other good players but they need all they can get.

Please spare us any further German pop music - German is just not a musical language. German classical composers (including Austrian), good stuff. German pop songs or opera - sounds like a Panzer attack.

Argentina fan eh?

Sorry, but it was event related. But yes, about the German pop "You Have Me" there, so no more pop or opera I promise.

I've found at least one good German pop singer: Juli



Though German is much more suited to metal:

Juli has a nice voice, but she just sounds like your generic American pop bimbo, except using a more awkward language.

As for Rammstein, that's just overkill, but then that's pretty typical for Germans. NeoWagner.

Always liked this one:

and this:


And of course this:

Ahhh, I'm thinking Schnappi

Actually I would like to see Germany take it, but maybe they could hire fans from a Latin country to sing their victory songs for them? I would guess the same goes for if Holland takes it, tho I've never heard any Dutch pop music - probably a blessing.

Hmmmmm...





This is old




You asked for pop, not for rock

Good enough for now?
Of course we have PLENTY of English singing Dutch artists (Herman Brood, Golden Earring, Anouk, Eddy Van Halen (yep, he is Dutch ), Jan Hammer, Candy Dulfer and Hans Dulfer, Junky XL, and... DJ TIESTO
Hell, even Andre Rieu is Dutch!

Anyway, back to football.....

I'd like to say Adios to the Paraguayan team after a hard fought loss to Spain. They will be missed, especially their superfan Larissa Riquelme..

[andyt]

I didn't actually ask for Dutch pop, and now my ears are sorry that you thought I did.

Eddie had the good sense to move to America, is why he made it.

Not the last time you gotta post that one, I hope

A Netherlands-Germany final would be nice, especially if the Netherlands win

Although they HAVE to play better....

[xerxes]

True true. They keep winning, but they aren't playing well. If they meet Germany in the final, Germany will cut them up like they've done to everyone else.

And Brenda, I'm sorry, but I was cheering for Urugauy and I'm sad to seem them go.
