Songs of the German colonies - Compilation

These songs were not posted in the intention of glorifying any attrocities committed by the Imperial German government, but solely to remember the rich music of the colonial era.

0:00 - Südwesterlied/Deutsch-Südwestafrika
3:38 - Heia Safari/Deutsch-Ostafrika
6:10 - 55 Tage in Peking/Kiautschou
8:31 - In Honolulu/Deutsch-Samoa

I did not find a song for all of the German colonies (I know Togoland, Kamerun, Papua-Neuginea and the Archipelagos of the Pacific are missing), however these songs presented here mention in lyrics or history their specific belonging to one of the colonies.

[Antares]

As a half Samoan I respectfully love to welcome my German colonial partners they treated us very well in our country not like the British or the New Zealanders.

I had no idea Südwesterlied was the inspiration for Panzerlied! Sehr geil!

The honorable memory of Gen. Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck lives on!

I found a song which somewhat talks about a lot of the other colonies that were missing from the video (Neuguinea, Kamerun, etc). It's called "Was ist des Deutschen Tochterland" and there is a version of it with an acoustic guitar being played. It also is to the tune of "Was ist des Deutschen Vaterland".

For God, Kaiser and Fatherland!
We serve the German Empire!

[Almagesto]

🤣By 4:03 "Quantas vezes nós temos caminhado pelo caminho estreito dos pretos".

[ColonoRizzo]

I didn't look for it but it was what I needed!
Viele Danke!

Sehr schön 🖤🤍❤👍🤗 Hat Togo und Kamerun auch Hymnen?

[lukefriesenhahn]

I love democracy, but at heart as a (German/Dutch-American) I am an Imperialist, and a moderate Monarchist. I very much appreciate you making this video as our German (and Dutch) colonies are rarely talked about. 🙂 🖤🤍❤️ 🇺🇸♥️🇩🇪+🇳🇱
