Running time<\/h3>\n

4:16 Minutes<\/p>\n

Time of origin and release<\/h3>\n

2002 (time of origin, released on "Viva La Poesia", Schule f\u00fcr Dichtung, 2002)<\/p>\n

Music, lyrics and production<\/h3>\n

Music: Ide Hintze
\nLyrics: Falco, Allen Ginsberg, Ide Hintze
\nProducer: Christoph Amann<\/p>\n

About the song<\/h3>\n

Christian Ide Hintze, the Viennese poet, action artist, performance and multimedia poet whom Falco met in 1989, produced this sampling track. Hintze was the founder of the School of Poetry, for which Falco later gave lectures and organized a benefit concert in 1995.<\/p>\n

Hintze mixes Falco’s voice, which comes from recordings from his telephone answering machine, into the music he has written himself.<\/p>\n

As is often the case with Hintze’s sampling songs, a dull drum machine beat dominates the song. In addition to Falco’s sampled voice, you can also hear Hintze and Julia Warner. Musically it certainly works, a delicate, playful chorus carries the track.<\/p>\n

In addition to sparse Falco samples (\u201cHere tomorrow\u201d), Hintze quotes large parts of the lyrics of The Sound Of Musik<\/a>, Falco’s hit from 1986. According to the credits in the CD booklet, the other lyrical elements come from Heraclitus, Allen Ginsberg, Nick Cave, H.C. Artmann and Gerhard R\u00fchm.<\/p>\n

In 2002 the sampling track appeared on the album \u201cViva La Poesia\u201d, which was published by Christian Ide Hintze.<\/p>\n

The track is well produced and has some elements of charm, but again, only the biggest Falco fans are likely to be interested in sampling songs of this kind. The results of such posthumously mixed songs are too poor, both musically and in terms of content.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Lyrics<\/h3>\n

Here tomorrow
\nHere tomorrow<\/p>\n

Es beginnt in einem Wald<\/em>
\nAlle Rechte sind bezahlt<\/em>
\nUnd es endet doch daheim<\/em>
\nMeine H\u00e4nde sind so kalt<\/em>
\nDenn die Zeit die ging ins Land<\/em>
\nMeine Seele ist so rein<\/em><\/p>\n

Der Bube fragt den K\u00f6nig<\/em>
\nEy, baby, do you wanna dance?<\/em>
\nSie machen history<\/em>
\nDenn sie sind scharf wie nie<\/em>
\nThe first free elected Rock \u2019N' Roll band<\/em><\/p>\n

Oh mother, what have I left out<\/em>
\nOh mother, what have I forgotten<\/em>
\nOh Mother, farewell<\/em>
\nWith a long black shoe<\/em>
\nFarewell with communist party and a broken stocking<\/em><\/p>\n

Tomorrow
\nFarewell<\/em>
\nTomorrow
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

With your sagging belly<\/em>
\nWith your fear of Hitler<\/em>
\nWith your mouth of bad short stories<\/em>
\nWith your fingers of rotten mandolines<\/em><\/p>\n

With your eyes, with your eyes of shock<\/em>
\nWith your eyes, with your eyes of hope<\/em>
\nWith your eyes, with your eyes of love<\/em>
\nWith your eyes alone<\/em>
\nWith your death full of flowers<\/em>
\nWith your…<\/em>
\nHere tomorrow
\nWith your…<\/em>
\nHere tomorrow
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

With your arms of fat Paterson porches<\/em>
\nWith your belly of strikes and smokestacks<\/em>
\nWith your chin of Trotsky and the Spanish War<\/em>
\nWith your nose of bad lay<\/em><\/p>\n

With your nose of the smell of the pickles of Newark<\/em>
\nWith your eyes, with your eyes<\/em>
\nWith your eyes of Russia<\/em>
\nWith your eyes of no money<\/em>
\nWith your eyes of false china<\/em><\/p>\n

With your eyes, with your eyes of shock<\/em>
\nWith your eyes, with your eyes of hope<\/em>
\nWith your eyes, with your eyes of love<\/em>
\nWith your eyes alone<\/em>
\nWith your death full of flowers<\/em>
\nWith your…<\/em>
\nHere tomorrow
\nWith your…<\/em>
\nHere tomorrow
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Es beginnt in einem Wald<\/em>
\nAlle Rechte sind bezahlt<\/em>
\nUnd es endet doch daheim<\/em>
\nMeine H\u00e4nde sind so kalt<\/em>

\nHere tomorrow
\nHere tomorrow
\nHere tomorrow
\nHere tomorrow<\/p>\n

With your eyes, with your eyes of shock<\/em>

Note: Falco sings in the text blocks shown normally, Allen Ginsberg, Ide Hintze and Julia Warner sing in the text blocks shown in italics.
\n<\/em>The samples with Falco’s voice come from mini-cassette recordings that Ide Hintze’s answering machine made of Falco’s telephone messages in 1989.

My text version is based on the text supplements of the official releases (booklet, inlay, cover etc.), if available. However, all lyrics were tapped and corrected according to the sung word. For songs where no lyric supplements are available, my version is based solely on the sung word or also on lyrics circulating on the Internet. Text passages sung in dialect are in moderate transliteration. Spelling errors, both German and English, were corrected in glaring cases. The spelling is based partly on the spelling valid at the time (text supplements), partly on the new spelling (own interceptions). Punctuation marks have generally been omitted. I am grateful for any suggestions for improvement.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":17307,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-17336","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nWith Your Eyes -
