Schlager Sabbath
This is German schlager duo Cindy and Bert's reinterpretation of Black Sabbath's Paranoid
as a song about The Hound of the Baskervilles
Schlager is sentimental, melodic German pop music and Cindy and Bert were kinda like the German equivalent of Captain & Tennille. So, imagine Captain & Tennille covering Black Sabbath. Cindy and Bert decided that the lyrics to Paranoid
were just a little too dark for their delicate audience so they instead made the song about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles
Ahhh!! Kill it! Kill it with fire!
Phew. Is it dead?
Aaahhh!!!
And thus, a legend was born.
