I know only a little bit of German, but I can tell it's not a direct translation because where Ivan sings "Safety Dance", that's where this version has "Nur Wir Zwei". "Nur Wir Zweit" loosely translates to "only we two". My ear isn't good enough to pick out the rest of the lyrics, save for an "alles klar?" there toward the beginning... So how do I go about getting a copy of "Sounds Familiar"? E-mail me privately at steve.jackson@onebox.com and maybe we can work something out.

Hey everyone,
For those of you who have never heard Bang Bang's german cover of Safety Dance I have uploaded the MP3 to my Yahoo briefcase so you can all download and listen to it. Also in the briefcase are CD covers for my Sounds Familiar release which includes the track listing. I included Nu Wir Zwei as a bonus track on the cd as well and I am still trading with members if you'd like a copy. If anyone knows German I am curious to know whether Bang Bang just translated Safety dance literally into german or whether all the lyrics are their own. If somebody could translate the lyrics that would be great. Here's the link enjoy!

You're right Steve. Remembering back to the '80's when they played the single a few times on the radio they said the title meant "You and me both". I was such a MWH fan I picked up the 7" single just to have it.
