Having freshly listened to both "Der Fuehrer's Face" and the "Horst Wessel Lied", I can't hear anything to indicate the melody of the one parodies the other. I think this is a mistake.--Skyraider 19:28, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Propaganda aspects of Der Fuehrer's Face

I analysed the propaganda aspects of Der Fuehrer's Face a while ago for uni, part of an essay on propagandistic music of WWII. Would it be worthwhile putting the aspects of the essay dealing with Der Fuehrer's Face in this page? I've uploaded the relevent section to [1]

I'm the author, and I grant permission for anyone to copy and upload to Wikipedia any or all of the text (as long as the meaning remains basically the same). I'm new to this whole thing, so I'm not sure of the correct processes.

Mahray, that's a good analysis of the song -- but it's *your* analysis and therefore original research, and thus probably not appropriate here. I hope you got a good grade on the essay! NawlinWiki 13:41, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Citations within the essay could be used, though, ja? Wahkeenah 14:09, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
What if -I-, someone else who certainly isn't that guy, did so? Then it's not original research izzit? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.122.63.142 (talk) 18:41, 13 September 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Critics?

Surely someone or other has said something significant about this. So why is it not here? - Redmess 23:14, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] YouTube Video

I was thinking of adding a link to a youtube video of Der Fuerher's Face to External Links, but whenever I add a Youtube link to a Wikipedia article (if related to subject), it always gets edited out saying "Youtube is not a relevant reference." So, is it possible to add http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZiRiIpZVF4 to the external links? Or am I just wasting my time? Royaljared (talk) 21:07, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

It seems to be inconsistently enforced, but I think the issues with Youtube are (1) copyright and (2) unreliability. That is, who knows where this stuff comes from, or low long it will last. There's no question it provides an unimpeachable reference for a given video - while it lasts. Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? 21:16, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
