1) Scooter is a German… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist with this name:
1) Scooter is a German group, formed by Sören Bühler, Hans-Peter Geerdes, Hendrik Stedler, and Jens Thele, in Hamburg, Germany in 1994. Among their more well known hits are 'Ramp! (The Logical Song)', 'Move Your Ass', 'Fire', 'How Much Is The Fish?', 'Nessaja' and 'Weekend!'.
Originally the group started as a side project in 1994. Their debut single Vallée De Larmes (French for Valley Of Tears) reached #8 on the German dance chart. In April of that year, Scooter played their first live show in Hamburg, Germany, where vocalist Hans-Peter Geerdes began freestyling off the top of his head to an instrumental dance track. At that point, Scooter officially became a group, and Geerdes' rapping would become one of the band's trademarks together with the fact that they all of their tracks are in fact remixes, though often with different titles than the original tracks.
In 2002, Scooter enjoyed somewhat of a comeback, with 6 top twenty UK singles ('RAMP! (The Logical Song)', 'Nessaja', 'Posse (I Need You On The Floor)', 'Weekend!', "The Night', and 'Maria (I Like It Loud)') all charting in an 18 month period (prior to this comeback, they only ever had one top twenty single in the UK, 'Back In The UK').
They have a sort of 'trademark' style of dance, with most of their songs featuring some "rap shouting", sometimes featuring a high pitched vocal, which is evident especially on their biggest hit 'RAMP! (The Logical Song)' (which samples 'The Logical Song' by Supertramp). Much of their music features elements of a live performance, including the roar of the crowd, and the echoing sound of Geerdes' voice.
Scooter's style would also appear to harp back to that of The KLF, especially so with the track entitled "Posse! (I Need You On The Floor) - with a sample which recurrs throughout the work of The KLF. KLF references are also frequently used in Scooter songs. Both bands have released singles with the title "Fuck the Millennium": KLF in 1997 under the pseudonym 2K, and Scooter in 1999. Relatively lenghty and complex samples used in KLF tracks have often surfaced in Scooter tracks, such as the entire opening seconds of the KLF's 3am Eternal being used to open Hello (Good to be Back) by Scooter.
The current band members are: H.P. Baxxter, Michael Simon, and Bastian van Shield (Sebastian Schilde). Former band members were Ferris, Axel Coon, Jay Frog, Rick J. Jordan, and Dirty Disco Youth (Phil Speiser).

In 1996 they released the track When We Go Out on a free CD given away with Sync magazine. They had the song Cranky American on Green Eggs and Hamilton, released in 1997, and in the same year covered Platypus by The Clean on the tribute album God Save the Clean (FNCD409). Their involvement with the project led to a TV appearance performing at the album's release party at Auckland's Power Station.
In 1998 they released a self titled debut EP (Scooter), including the songs Dayroom and Maybe and toured the country from end to end in support of the EP's release. Dayroom and Maybe appeared on the promo CDs NZ on Air Indie Hit Disc 6 and 7, respectively, in 1998. The following year they released the single Book 'Im Danno and again toured both the North and South Islands of the country to promote it. In 2000 Book 'Im Danno appeared on the promo CD NZ on Air Indie Hit Disc 12, and in 2001 the same song appeared on the Year Zero compilation.

Scooter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I pour the wine
It's four o'clock in the morning
And it's starting to get light
You light up another cigarette
And I pour the wine
It's four o'clock in the morning
Here we go!
Yeah!
C'mon!
Energy, energy g' gise, for the raving enterprise
MC, what day is it?
I've lost my f*cking memory
The master mic enforcer, bass junky's what I am
I rock you on the dance floor, feel the noise we got the jam
I got the classy swag
Now that's why I get flagged
More like a taxi cab
Where are the chicks to check? (down the floor)
You light up another cigarette
And I pour the wine
It's four o'clock in the morning
And it's starting to get light
You light up another cigarette
And I pour the wine
It's four o'clock in the morning
And it's starting to get light
Yeah!
Skibadee skibadee g' gise, I will never compromise
MC, what time is it
I've lost my f*cking memory
The master getting faster, no diggedy's who I am
That's why I paid the money, going mental and get the jam
I got the classy swag
Now that's why I get flagged
More like a taxi cab
Where are the chicks to check? (down the floor)
You light up another cigarette
And I pour the wine
It's four o'clock in the morning
And it's starting to get light
I got the classy swag
Now that's why I get flagged
More like a taxi cab
Where are the chicks to check
The lyrics to Scooter's song 4AM depict a scene of two individuals, one lighting up a cigarette and the other pouring wine as the clock strikes 4 a.m. The song suggests a feeling of hedonism and indulgence in the moment as the two individuals enjoy each other's company despite the early morning hours. The repetition of the action of lighting up another cigarette and pouring more wine highlights the idea of living in the moment and enjoying life despite its temporal nature. The energetic refrain of "C'mon!" and the rapper's quick and lively lyrics further emphasize the idea of seizing the moment and making the most out of the present.

You light up another cigarette
We are continuing to smoke cigarettes as the night goes on, adding to the growing pile of ash and butts on the table.
And I pour the wine
As you light up, I pour a drink to help us both relax and enjoy the company of each other.
It's four o'clock in the morning
The hour is early and the sun still has not fully risen, indicating that we have stayed up all night.
And it's starting to get light
Despite it being the middle of the night, we can see the first hints of dawn on the horizon, signaling the end of our time together.
I got the classy swag
I am feeling confident and looking good, with a style that is both classy and unique.
Now that's why I get flagged
People recognize my confidence and style, and are drawn to me as a result.
More like a taxi cab
Rather than being seen as just another person, I am viewed as a premium service that people are willing to pay extra for.
Where are the chicks to check? (down the floor)
I am on the lookout for attractive women to talk to and try to impress, and I believe they will be found on the dance floor.
