1) An A Cappella group from Cologne, Germany
2) An Italian hardcore band from New Jersey.
The Wise Guys was a popular A Cappella group from Cologne, Germany. They were the most prominent representatives of A Cappella music in Germany. Their tantalizing combination of catchy tunes and amusing lyrics have attracted many fans. The group has existed since 1995 with the members Daniel Dickopf (Dän), Marc Sahr (Sari), Edzard Hüneke (Eddi), Clemens Tewinkel and Ferenc Husta who replaced the former bassist Christoph Tettinger. Tettinger moved on to be the band's manager. As of 2009, Clemens Tewinkel left the group and was replaced by Nils Olfert. Fenerc Husta left in 2012 and was replaced by former Flying Pickets member Andrea Figallo. Björn Sterzenbach replaced him in 2016.
The Wise Guys were always on the verge of commercial success. Their last six albums all reached the top 10 of the German album charts, while they still played lots of smaller concerts all over Germany. They were also famous for their annual six hour charity concert "Totalnacht". Since 2001 they also hold the world record of most spectators (12,500 visitors) for an A Cappella concert of an individual group. They also played for several years at the "Evangelischer Kirchentag", an event for German protestants; one time performing in front of more than 70,000 spectators.
Their album Zwei Welten appeared 2012 in an A Cappella version and also in a version where most songs were re-recorded with traditional band setup (drums, bass, guitar etc.) and those don't stand back from the original versions.
The Wise Guys announced that they were to stop performing as a group in autumn 2017. Many of the members of Wise Guys went on to form the group Alte Bekannte.
2) Wise Guys is an Italian hardcore punk band from New Jersey. With 2 separate albums and ongoing shows in Eastern PA and NJ tour plans are being made, keep your eye out

With A Little Help From My Friends
Wise Guys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends.
What would you think if I sang out of tune?
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key
Hm, get high with a little help from my friends
Hm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
What do I do when my love is away?
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day?
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)
No, I get by...
(Do you need anybody?)
I need somebody to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I want somebody to love.
(Would you believe in a love at first sight?)
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
(What do you see when you turn off the light?)
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine
Oh, I get by...
(Do you need anybody?)
I just need someone to love
(Could it be anybody?)
I just need someone to love
Oh, I get by...
In Wise Guys' rendition of "With a Little Help from My Friends," the lyrics paint a picture of someone who is in need of help, either in a romantic or platonic sense. The song starts off by admitting that the person can only get by with the help of their companions, that he finds peace with weed and drugs, and that he will always try his best even if he is not very good at singing. The singer of the song then describes feeling lost when the love of their life goes away and feeling sad when they are alone. However, despite these feelings of loneliness, he recognizes that he can always rely on his friends for support and is actively seeking someone to love.
This song has a bittersweet tone, with lyrics that touch on themes that are relatable to many people. The song's main message is about the necessity of having friends who can help through tough times, being in love, and finding someone to share life with.
