BAP had their greatest successes in the 1980s, when they stormed the national charts with a number of subsequent singles. Their all-time number one is "Verdamp lang her".
During the peace movement in the 80s they played concerts on demonstrations and were dedicated to the disarmament in Germany and Europe.
2) BAP!! (Brigada Anti Polizialak) is an influential Basque Hardcore fusion band.

Later 3 of the members formed Inoren Ero Ni.

The song "Anna" by BAP is a character study of a woman named Anna. The song starts by describing Anna as someone who is independent and selfish. She is compared to a lion who is curious and self-focused. It is suggested that Anna's behavior is childish, and that her husband struggles to keep up with her unpredictable nature. Anna's husband is depicted as a miner who is tasked with navigating the perils of his wife's whims. While Anna is described as someone who is bold and unafraid, the tone of the song suggests that her husband finds her behavior frustrating and exhausting.
The chorus of the song repeats the line "Anna, Anna, don't worry about it." This suggests that Anna is a person who frets needlessly, and that her husband is attempting to reassure her that he is capable of handling her unpredictable behavior. The second verse of the song describes Anna's routine throughout the week. One day she is at a cemetery, the next at a brothel. On Wednesday she dreams about the future, and on Thursdays she drinks until she passes out. The song suggests that Anna's behavior is both spontaneous and self-destructive.
The final verse of the song suggests that Anna is a woman who is searching for a purpose in life. She wants to be a priestess or a witch, someone who has power and influence over others. However, the song's narrator warns Anna that she needs to be careful not to get caught up in her own fantasies. The chorus repeats once more, suggesting that Anna's behavior is ultimately harmless, and that her husband is capable of handling her eccentricities.

Die Frisur vom Major würde ich meinem ärgsten Feind nicht wünschen ... das war selbst in den 80ern schon das Schlimmste, was man sich vorstellen kann.

@yapdidapadido: wenn ich so gitarre spielen könnte, würde ich mit rastalocken, vokuhila oder im afrolook rumlaufen... oder auch mit der homer simpson frisur...

Naja, spielt ja ganz nett der Herr Major - aber ausflippen muss man deswegen echt nicht. Die Friese ist echt beschissen... ;()
