Anyone believed that BS? P. Schillings version is just a translation to German.

BTW better play D. Bowie or if you want something from a German Band play something from The BossHoss, OK they sing just English but it's good and new.

Spoken like someone who knows nothing of the place.

Germans actually feel quite at home here. A large part of central Texas was populated by German immigrants in the early-mid 1800's. German culture is still pretty strong in places like Fredericksburg, Comfort and New Braunfels, although it is pretty commercialized nowadays. Seems like every other antique store is named Opa's Haus.
