This is my favourite Oktoberfest song. And not only mine..
Same here, by a country mile. Followed by Fürstenfeld and "Steirermen".
None of that Amarillo crap.

I am wondering about that too, it's not a good city and incredibly ugly. But the song kicks ass

Kölsch, yuck! I have no idea what they're saying.
I'll be happy to translate.

Kölsch is a screwed up language, tho, no question.

Eine neue Liebe ist wie ein neues Leben
Wie war das noch gestern?
Wer war ich noch gestern?
Die Antwort weißt nur du!
Ist das noch dieselbe Straße
die ich schon seit vielen Jahren geh´
Ist das noch dieselbe Stadt
die ich im Licht der Sterne glitzern seh´
bist Du wirklich keine Fremde
ist es wirklich keine Phantasie
mir erscheint die ganze Welt verrückt
denn ich bin glücklich wie noch nie
Eine neue Liebe ist wie ein neues Leben
was einmal war ist vorbei und vergessen und zählt nicht mehr
Eine neue Liebe ist wie ein neues Leben
mir ist als ob ich durch dich neu geboren bin
Heute fängt ein neues Leben an
deine Liebe die ist Schuld daran
alles ist so wunderbar dass man es kaum verstehen kann
Als die andre mich verließ da dachte ich das kann doch gar nicht sein
und ich dachte mir das Spiel ist aus ich bleib für alle Zeit allein
dann kamst du das graue Gestern war vorüber eh ich mich ver-sah
und schon nach dem ersten Kuss von dir war eine neue Liebe da

I'm a bit mixed up, the beer hasn't killed the brain cells but the neurons have been redirected.
I've found out I've got the tune for VIVA BAVARIA in my head but the song I'm trying to think of had words like "..eins, zwei, lalala drei(mal?) tausend jarhe lalala bavaria..."
I checked the lyrics for Viva Colonia and they don't have anything like that in it. Have all the words been changed or just Bavaria for Colonia?
Anyone? My next question will be how do you sing the 3000 jahre song?
Thanks as always.

Wow great list! I love the selections on those CDs that Bob recommended- and the TresenMix one sounds just like what I need for our party after everyone has had their fill of the traditional favorites! But as this thread is almost 6 years old, I wonder if I can still even find it. Anyone got a recommend of a good store in Munich with lots of Oktoberfest CDs?
Thanks!

While hits come and go there is a core collection of very traditional Oktoberfest songs that continue to be standard - classics.
Trouble is that everyone around you knows the lyrics and tunes but you do not.
Not quite as fun- but with a songbook you can join in immediately.
Our Songbook: Traditional Bavarian Oktoberfest Songs
is the most complete collection anywhere. Absolutely. This year 2009 we have a new edition vastly improved, more songs, more illustrations.
Go here to order:

We can accept payment via paypal

Groups and organizers have given us amazing positive feedback. The book helps convert a spectator into a participant. There is even a section for pronunciation of German and Bavarian. We also include foods, drink clothing customs- it is all you need to plug in and take part fully in any fest.
