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.

Niets Te Verliezen
De Cirkel
Wat valt er te zeggen, wie heeft er gelijk
Verschil in beleving geeft een andere kijk
Je vindt me veranderd, je zegt je klinkt verward
Maar wat kan ik doen, ik weet geen raad met mijn hart
Hoe, hoe kan ik de cirkel doorbreken
We stranden keer op keer
Hoe kan ik de cirkel doorbreken
Het komt steeds op hetzelfde neer
De meeste gesprekken zijn kort en missen een doel
Jij vlucht in jezelf en ik belazer de boel
Wanneer wordt het helder, wanneer ontdek ik de clou
Het heeft zo geen zin meer deze weg leidt nergens naar toe
Refr.
Ik voel me rot, ik weet niet wat ik moet
Is dit mijn lot, ik ben van vlees en bloed
Waar vind ik de code, de sleutel naar jouw verhaal
Geef me de woorden, een zin in dezelfde taal
Refr.
Hoe kan ik de cirkel doorbreken
We stranden keer op keer
Hoe kan ik, hoe kan ik, hoe kan ik, hoe kan ik, hoe kan ik
De song "Vallée De Larmes" by Scooter is a remix of "De Kast" 1998's song "Vallée De Larmes". "De Kast" is a Dutch band, and their original song is about a love that ends in tears. Scooter's interpretation is an upbeat dance track with minimal lyrics.
Now, onto the lyrics of "De Kast's" version, "Niets Te Verliezen", and their meaning. The song speaks of a couple that is stuck in a cycle of frustrations and misunderstandings. The first verse acknowledges that both parties have different perceptions, leading to conflict. The chorus talks about the desire to break out of that cyclical pattern, as they seem unable to avoid repeating the same mistakes over and over again.
The second verse describes their exchanges as shallow and lacking purpose, with either partner opting to avoid the issue at hand. The singer is desperate to find a way for them to communicate without getting into a fight. The final verse is more introspective, with the singer realizing that they don't have all the answers and needing their partner's help to achieve clarity. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the need to escape the cycle that is slowly breaking their relationship apart.

для меня ваще новшество что это первый трэк группы . Я купил сингл после no time to chill . Было дело в Волгограде в 2001 году, кстати тогда мне впарили совместный альбом 666+scooter. Как вспомню аж в дрожь бросает.
