@Maysam Why were so many of the songs in languages other than German?

He is offended that some people know more than one language.

Oh that’s too bad. People should know the history of their country.

Also, a band called Modern Talking had numerous #1 hits which means they were very popular. Why were they so popular?

Imagine someone being so ignorant that he would assume the only true polyglot on EDF could somehow be offended by people learning more than 1 language. Laughable!

Was it slop or was it just what people found to be enjoyable at that time? I have never heard of that band, but I have heard of other old German-speaking artists such as Falco, Nena, The Scorpions, Alphaville, Kraftwerk, and Einstürzende Neubauten.
