Lyrics & Translation
Learning a language through music is a fantastic journey, and Jan Delay's 'Für immer und dich' is a great place to start with German. The song, originally a rock ballad by Rio Reiser, is transformed by Delay into a soulful funk track. Its lyrics are a beautiful and poetic declaration of love, using powerful imagery that can help you learn expressive vocabulary and understand how deep emotions are conveyed in German. The repetitive chorus makes it easy to sing along and remember key phrases. What makes this song special is that it connects you to two important eras of German music: the rock legacy of Rio Reiser and the modern funk and hip-hop scene shaped by Jan Delay.
