    Default Does my German sound bad when I sing?

    Or can you tell? Would Germans be offended because I don't have a German accent when I sing? I don't notice . I just hear the language. I guess it would be the equivalent of a Kraut singing the American National Anthem?
    What is wrong with my German?

    Krauts slur their R in final position as does the Queen's English, but I say make the song your own and feel free to embellish a bit, for instance:

    As for your voice quality, singing that song, I think it's fantastic. In regards to the style of presenting it, it rings of a 21st Century rendition, maybe a big jazzy. Let me put in this way: A clear unbroken voice, and very solid. I like it.

    Interesting Fact: Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) composed Deutschlandlied, the German National Anthem.
