As a confirmed friend of Udo Jürgens' music I have listened attentively, of course, when I heard that Bastian Sick wrote a lyric. After all, the hamburger has in my opinion by far the best collection of songs that are officially on CD is available from Udo, compiled and thereby achieved something that is neither before nor after someone succeeded: It was not the cheaply produced retake one of Udo "early works" (Merci Cherie) burned onto a CD, but the original "Vogue" recording from the 60s. To date, the Ariola keeps songs like "Tell me how", "why just why", "Tell me I let them greet" and so in the original version at Verschuluss ...
After this small digression back to the subject: someone who obviously has a relation to language - ie someone who stands out that Udo in contrast to almost all other artists just "because of you" and not "because of you" sing - its own text has I was very interested. Since the text is freely available on the Internet, I could look at him again:

Sick thoughts, how about Goethe prospered in modern times and in today's zeitgeist, has grabbed me. As the estimated he Udo Jürgens it is modern media obviously skeptical - at least he deals with it so in his song. Unlike the old master who indeed called his new album "Real Life", but at the same time makes the Internet as the root of all evil, Sick uses clever ironic swipes:
Goethe would today still tight,
He would like as a thunderstorm
About with short reports
Via Facebook and on Twitter?
Even a swipe towards Anglicisms or "Denglish" SICK can not help - in the spirit of the old master. Lyrically I also see here a points victory for Mr. Sick - is "Everything is so easy" something wooden Udo therefore, the dating Saver brings it to the point as follows:
All rediscover the gist of the matter
Let's see, what is it to be there!
And Gretchen check thoroughly
And from the fist Mister Fist!
The bottom line sicks song falls completely out of the context of the daily hit-monotony. Also musically containing 0.99 EUR investment in Amazon have absolutely worth it for the download - although here again veteran Udo must be brought into play - what if he had set to music this song? I think he would absolutely fit on his album :))
Last but not least I want to emphasize that Mr. Sick proves that you can produce a good pop song with great quality, without anyone even vaguely about ladies beards, travesty or homophobia disktuierten must - with him it comes to happiness to his successful song, makes the mood for a whole album.
