Die Ärtzte

One of the best ways to learn a foreign language is to try to get into local music. Germany doesn't have a ton of great music, but there are some gems. My buddy and countryman Steve gave me the "Bäst of die Ärtzte" CD for my birthday last year and I'm actually really getting into them - lots of fun and really my kind of music, also of course it helps me learn German.
One of my favorites, below, partly because it's one of the first ones I understood (more or less):



Anybody else think these guys looks awfully dour considering the happiness of the song? Then again, that's another reason I like this song so much; it's so out of character for this band.
Another one of my faves, which is more typical of them:



I'm learning German!
