The sexy/quirky/mysterious Brazilian Girls were three men -- Didi Gutman (from Argentina) on keyboards and computers, Jesse Murphy on bass, and Aaron Johnston on drums -- and one woman, Sabina Sciubba, the vocalist. Sciubba often enjoys wearing lacy eye masks on-stage and sings in no fewer than five different languages. She was born in Rome but grew up in Nice and Munich before settling in Brooklyn, NY. She first came to record buyers' attention when she recorded two jazz albums -- You Don't Know What Love Is with pianist Chris Anderson and Meet Me in London with guitarist Antonio Forcione -- for the English audiophile label Naim. She described her meeting with the men of Brazilian Girls as "love at first sight and it moved as fast as the Autobahn." Falling into the new, playful downtown scene that was revolving around the Nublu club helped speed the band's success.
Like-minded bands like Wax Poetic and the Nublu Orchestra had made the club the hip spot 2004 for adventurous pop fans and Brazilian Girls' freeform, bouncy kind of jamming fit right in. Soon they had the Saturday night slot at Nublu, and the East Village press had fallen in love with them. Murphy and Johnston made appearances on John Zorn's 2003 album Voices in the Wilderness and every Brazilian Girl contributed to Wax Poetic's sophomore release, the Nublu Sessions, the same year. The Verve Company became interested in the band around this time, thinking them perfect for the more pop and progressive imprint Verve Forecast. In 2004 the label released the Lazy Lover (EP), which included the title track -- a chillout room favorite -- in its original form and in a remix by the quirky house producer Herbert. The group's self-titled, full-length debut Brazilian Girls hit the streets in early 2005. (allmusic.com, 02/06) The band's second album, Talk to La Bomb, was released in September 2006 by Verve Forecast, to mixed reviews.
In 2008, the band released a third album "New York City" - also to mixed reviews. In the interim, singer Sciubba returned to France and had a child. Unfortunately, the band announced in January 2011 that they had broken up.
Die Gedenken sind Frei
Brazilian Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sie fliegen vorbei, wie nächtliche Schatten
Kein Mensch kann sie wissen, kein Jäger erschießen
Es bleibet dabei: Die Gedanken sind Frei!
Ich denke was ich will und was mich beglücket
Alles in der Still', und wie es sich schicket
Mein Wunsch mein Begehren, kann niemand verwehren
Und sperrt man mich ein in finstere Kerker
Ich spotte der pein und menschlicher werke
Denn meine Gedanken zerreissen die Schranken
Und die Mauern entzwei, Die Gedanken sind frei!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thoughts are free!
Who can guess them?
They fly along like nightly treasures.
No man can know them
No hunter can shoot them
With powder and lead
Thoughts are free!
I think about what I want
and what makes me happy
But everything quietly,
and just how it comes.
To my wish and desire
Nobody can oppose,
It stays this way:
Thoughts are free!
And if they lock me in a dark dungeon
That is something that can be forgiven
'Cause my thoughts tear up the bars and walls.
Thoughts are free!
I think about what I want
and what makes me happy ...
And if they lock me in a dark dungeon ...
I love wine, my girl most of all,
Only me she pleases best
I am not alone
With my glass of wine
My girl is with me:
Thoughts are free!
That's why I will never worry anymore
And I will never tease myself
with whims anymore
Because in one's heart
One can keep laughing and joking
While thinking
Thoughts are free!
The lyrics of "Thoughts Are Free" portray the idea of the freedom of thought, which originates from the 12th-century German peasant's revolt. The song is based on a poem that was popular in Germany in the early 19th century. The lyrics express the sentiment that nobody has the right to dictate what one should think and that everyone is free to think and feel what they want without fear of persecution or condemnation. The song also contains a message of hope, as the singer notes that even if they are locked up in a dark dungeon, their thoughts will keep them free.
The lyrics of "Thoughts Are Free" have inspired various protest movements around the world, including the civil rights movement in the United States and the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa. The song has also inspired various covers, including a punk rock version by the band Pflanzplätz in 1981.

@felixsylvester4266
Eigentlich nicht viel länger als andere europäische Länder. Der Nationalsozialismus war natürlich die Ausnahme, aber die Weimarer Republik war mehr oder weniger vergleichbar mit anderen Europäischen Ländern zu der Zeit. Abgesehen von der enormen Wirtschaftskrise natürlich, aber die hatte andere Gründe.
Yugoslavia war eine Monarchie bis zum Zweiten Weltkrieg.
England war und ist nach wie vor eine parlamentarische Republik mit konstitioneller Monarchie (anders gesagt eine Bonzen Republik die den Geldsäcken dient). Gegen Sozialisten wurde akkut vorgegangen.
Frankreich hatte eine extreme politische Spaltung zwischen Rechten und Linken die nur beendet wurde da die Linke Parti Radical die fast die Häfte aller Sitze im Nationalrat innehate verboten wurde und stattdessen die Nationalisten und Reaktionäre in die Regierung aufgenommen worden. Wirklich frei war man also politisch selbst dort nicht.
Italien hatte genau gleich lange ihre Monarchie/Faschismus Fusion wie Deutschland den Faschismus hatte.
Österreich hat ideologusch bei Deutschland mitgezogen und war davor als Österreich-Ungarn ebenfalls monarchistisch.
Von allen Nennenswerten Staaten in Mittel und Westeuropa war also eigentlich Spanien das letzte Holdout des Faschismus. Wahlen gab es dort erst wieder 1977.
Alles in allem ist Deutschland also eher im schlechten Mittelbereich was das Tempo der Liberalisierung der Gesellschaft betrifft; Schwerer Start aber dann recht schnell aufgeholt.
