isnt "Ein guter Tag zum Sterben" a cover version of "the roof is on fire" from the bloodhound gang? -- 194.113.40.41 12:25, 10 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

No, that's "Arschloch und Spaß dabei" MikeAtari 13:19, 10 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Copy-edit edit

I rewrote the following text, as it was hard to understand:

J.B.O would not enter legal disputes for the last time as a result of the lawsuit: Earlier, they were sued for slander by the Patrizierbrauerei in Nuremberg, because of the following insulting quote: "Patrizier finden wir nicht besser, das schmeckt wie reinstes Abgewässer." ("We're not impressed by Patrizier, it tastes like dishwater")

and also removed the quotation from the song, as I didn't think it was necessary to explain the point. Please check to see that the current text is OK as it stands. --Slashme 08:12, 26 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hidden track edit

Hi,

I have a version of the song "JBO" which has a long section of silence at the end, and then suddenly you here some mumbled comments, and then the band members are introduced (sounds like "Born Holmer"; "Born Hannes"; "Born Schmitty"; "Born Veit"; "BORN BLÖED!", not sure of the sequence.) Does anyone here know what the guy is muttering? --Slashme 08:22, 26 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

yeah, and before he says "you turned on the recorder, I've heard it", a nonsense track about themselves ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.176.234.225 (talk) 19:02, 2 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Actually, he doesn't say "BORN BLOED", he says "BORN DET" followed by a shrill voice yelling "Guten Abend!" (good evening). It is a play on the "Mainzelmännchen", animated figures resembling "Heinzelmännchen", which are the mascots of the german TV station ZDF (Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen). ZDF traditionally shows short clips (about 1-2 seconds) of them before commercial breaks (where one, some or all of them yell "Guten Abend!" in shrill voices) and in between the individual commercials doing supposedly funny/nonsensical/cute things. Since the TV station is based in the city of Mainz, these Heinzelmännchen are called Mainzelmännchen. And one of them is called "Det" (short for Detlef or Detlev).

Look for them on youtube, but be aware that much of the results are parodies. Here's a real one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qEcMgL-Lik&feature=related —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.68.167.12 (talk) 02:51, 28 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
