(Schlager)
Schlager (German Schlager, literally "hitter" or, more loosely translated, "a hit") is a style of popular music that is prevalent in northern Europe, in particular Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Scandinavia, Latvia and Lithuania, but also to a lesser extent in France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Typical schlager tracks are either sweet, highly sentimental ballads with a simple, catchy melody or light, pleasant, throwaway pop tunes. Its lyrics are typically centered around love and relationships, and feelings. The northern variant of schlager, most notably in Finland, has taken elements from Nordic and Slavic folk songs, with texts tending towards melancholia and elegiac themes.

Dam-dam, dam-dam
Es gibt einen, der zu dir hält
Dam-dam, dam-dam
Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht
Aber unsere Liebe nicht
Alles, alles geht vorbei
Kann ich einmal nicht bei dir sein
Dam-dam, dam-dam
Denk daran, du bist nicht allein
Dam-dam, dam-dam
Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht
Aber unsere Liebe nicht
Alles, alles geht vorbei
Doch wir sind uns treu
Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht
Aber unsere Liebe nicht
Alles, alles, alles geht vorbei
Doch wir sind uns treu
Nimm den goldenen Ring von mir
Dam-dam, dam-dam
Bist du traurig, dann sagt er dir
Dam-dam, dam-dam
Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht
Aber unsere Liebe nicht
