He started as a DJ and animator in Tyrol, in 1999 he had his breakthrough with his hit single "Anton aus Tirol", since then his songs are often played on so-called apres-ski and Ballermann-parties.
There is also an American deathrock-band "Ötzi" (https://otzi.bandcamp.com/), the scrobbles of which all get connected to this profile for some reason (needs to be fixed).
Mei Lederhosen Tausch I Net
DJ Ötzi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Verdammt, des is a mord's Malheur
Jetzt woll'n's mi auch beim Militar
Far's Vaterland marschier' i umeinand
Ruck' ein, ruck' ein
Schreit mit ein alter Oberst an
Und i schlag' glei die Hacken z'samm
Doch bitte schan
Mei Lederhos'n tausch' i net
Da siacht ma meine Wadln net
A kerniger Tirolerbua
Der stimmt da niemals zua
Mei Lederhos'n tausch' i net
Den Fleckerlteppich brauch' i net
Mei Lederhos'n macht mi toll
Da drin fahl' i mi wohl
Habt acht, habt acht
I streck' mi wie a Besenstiel
Wenn s' halt der General so will
Far's Vaterland da tut ma allerhand
Habt acht, habt acht
Da kommt der Schreihals auf mi zua
Und brallt, stolzer Tiroler Bua
Ziag d'Hos'n aus i sag' da wird nix draus
Mei Lederhos'n tausch' i net
Da siacht ma meine Wadln net
A kerniger Tirolerbua
Der stimmt da niemals zua
Mei Lederhos'n tausch' i net
Den Fleckerlteppich brauch' i net
Mei Lederhos'n macht mi toll
Da drin fahl' i mi wohl
Schlammschlacht und Zapfenstreich
Des is mir alles gleich
Alles egal, doch i sag no einmal
These lyrics are sung by DJ Ötzi in his song "Mei Lederhosen Tausch I net" and are written in a mixture of German and Tyrolean dialect. The song is about a man who refuses to trade his beloved Lederhosen for a military uniform, even though he is being pressured to do so. The first verse describes the man being forced to march for the fatherland and being yelled at by an old colonel. The singer complies but notes that they have a small problem. In the chorus, he asserts that he will never trade his Lederhosen, as they make him feel powerful and confident.
In the second verse, the singer is told to stretch his body like a broomstick, and if he doesn't comply, he will be considered a coward. The singer resists and is told to take off his Lederhosen since he is not fit for the military. The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the singer's attachment to his Lederhosen. In the final verse, the singer declares that he doesn't care about mud fights or military parades as long as he can wear his Lederhosen.
Overall, the song is a humorous take on the loyalty people have to their culture and traditions, even in the face of conformity and pressure. It also emphasizes the importance of individuality and personal identity.
