German musicians
In our Lessons, there is a list of German musicians and bands from the past to today. Listen to a variety of them and tell us which songs you liked, which you did not, and why. Finally, do your own exploring of German music online. If there is a German song or musician that you discover and really like, share it with our class. Include full references with Author, Title, Date, and Links to the songs, German/English lyrics, and more. Point out to us and discuss German language in at least one of the songs. Tell us what you like or find interesting, and why. Let us know if you have any questions about these lyrics.
Here is an outline of the four requirements to keep in mind for your first post:
- Tell us which songs you liked, which you did not, and why:
- Share a German song or musician that you discover or have discovered and really like:
- Point out and discuss German language in at least one of the songs. Tell us what you like or find interesting, and why. Let us know if you have any questions about these songs or music lyrics. (Because this is a German language course, these questions about the German language are most important for our discussion. ????)

Musical copyright infringement and “sampling.
Discuss the difference between musical copyright infringement and “sampling.” Additionally, research the case between Marvin Gaye’s Estate, Robin
Thicke, and Pharrell Williams, concerning the song “Blurred Lines” and discuss the court’s holding. Since the case was appealed to the 9th circuit, please include
the arguments raised on appeal as well. In addition, include an example of a sampled song. Why was that sampled song not subject to litigation like “Blurred Lines?”
