I read every word in the description🥀
The historical context surrounding this song is deeply tied to one of the darkest periods in human history. During World War II, the Nazi regime carried out systematic atrocities on an unprecedented scale. These included the Holocaust—the planned, industrialized genocide of six million Jewish people—as well as the persecution, imprisonment, and murder of Romani people, disabled individuals, LGBTQ+ people, political dissidents, Slavic populations, and many others deemed “undesirable.” Entire cities and villages were destroyed, civilians were targeted, cultures were erased, and millions of lives were lost due to aggressive warfare, forced labor, starvation, and mass executions. These actions were crimes against humanity, driven by an ideology rooted in hatred, supremacy, and dehumanization. I do not approve of, excuse, or support any of this in any way.
It is important to be explicit about that rejection, because symbols, music, and imagery from this era can be painful reminders of real suffering. Acknowledging the full historical reality matters, and pretending those crimes did not happen—or minimizing them—would be irresponsible and harmful.
This remix does not glorify or endorse Nazi ideology or the actions of that regime. The intent is strictly musical. The song itself, composed before the war, is approached here for its melody, harmony, and emotional tone, separated from the later political associations imposed upon it. Finding the music compelling does not mean approving of the crimes committed by those who later used it, just as studying or reinterpreting historical art does not equate to supporting the atrocities of its era.
This project aims to be transparent, historically aware, and respectful: recognizing the immense harm tied to the period while making it clear that any appreciation is for the musical elements alone, not the ideology, violence, or suffering associated with its misuse.

After reading this, I can say it's not disagreeable but not a lot of people have that same mindset outside of music, I do have one question though, what made you choose this specific historical piece?
-
Nahhh
-
I don't agree with what the Nazis did, I just want to say this. It's sad that many symbols like this marching song, which was created before all the atrocities of World War II, have been misused for disgusting propaganda. The song sings about home, love and nature.
And yes, I read the description.
