Have a look at a Cover. It's from a Rock Band in Germany (1978)

 

 

Ah Nina - fascinating story.

Like Merkel, she was East German....

 

Nina's stepfather was Wolf Biermann, a true (east) German communist, and because of that, not much liked by the East German so called "communist" government. Biermann was exiled to West Germany (his father, a communist jew  died in Auschwitz).

Nina followed her stepfather and became an icon of German punk.

 

Great lyrics, but in Kraut language - from the days that feminism was not yet recovered by The Evil Society.

Or do you prefer punk in combination with opera?

And this is her step father Wolf Biermann

More about Nina Hagen:

Her stepfather Wolf Biermann was the "protégé" of Eisler, but when Eisler died in 1962, the East German government no longer put up with Biermann's free thinking.

Here is a Eisler song (personally, I am not so keen on the pics of Wladimir, but some great lyrics....).

And later Nina Hagen sang Eisler songs too.
