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).

Encore
Scooter Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Never thought that I would ever say it
I can't do this no more
Already made up my mind won't change it
There will be no encore, encore, encore

See yeah my chick
Yeah she loves my selfie stick
Yeah my lovely tinderella

When you're cumming under my umbrella
Late at night one swipe to the right
Gonna get a fever cause ya dressin' so tight
Do it hard and do it bat, but always use a jimmy hat

Never thought that I would ever say it
I can't do this no more
Already made up my mind won't change it
There will be no encore, encore, encore

Never thought that I would ever say it
I can't do this no more
Already made up my mind won't change it
There will be no encore, encore, encore

Don't call me I call you
Got so many things I wanna do to you
Chicks pretending, they don't give a damn
But are liking every picture on my instagram
Late at night one swipe to the right
Gonna get a fever cause ya dressin so tight

Do it hard and do it bad but always use a jimmy hat
There will be no encore

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Scooter's song Encore seem to be about a man who has had enough of a certain relationship or sexual encounter and has decided that there will be no more repeats or encores. The lyrics suggest that the man is talking to a woman he met on Tinder and who is attracted to him and his social media presence. He brags about his selfie stick and how his "Tinderella" loves it. He also mentions that he enjoys swiping right and finding girls to "do it hard and do it bad" with but he always uses protection. The chorus which is repeated 3 times states that he has made up his mind and there will be no encore, meaning that he does not want to repeat this again.

The lyrics provide an insight into a modern-day relationship or sexual encounter that might be purely based on physical attraction and social media presence. It suggests that the man has found someone he likes physically but does not want it to turn into something more meaningful or long-lasting. Instead, he wants to keep it purely physical without any emotional attachment. The lyrics also hint at the hook-up culture that is prevalent in modern society, where people use apps like Tinder to find partners for casual sex and do not want to pursue anything more than that.
