Welcome to Little Germany: Hitler and Goering satiric
videos
The
Welcome to Little Germany videos from Naklua Nikky Bar are
right up you alley if you know your German history.
The reason I’m calling this Naklua Thailand little Germany
birthday party is twofold. First Naklua has many German
residents. And there are a lot of German restaurants here. So,
it is no surprise that NIkky Bar has a large percentage of
German customers. The second reason is this particular German
group of guys attending their pal’s birthday party went
overboard to dramatize their Germanness.
Mew and Mimi go crazy with their dancing.
Which I found to be hugely entertaining. For example, one of the
men, had the karaoke group play a popular German heavy metal song
while he played the part of being a head vocalist. The German
singer. Axel, is a big guy. His voice was guttural to the extreme. I
don’t think his normal voice is, but Axel, was playing his role to
the hilt. While the music kept reminding me of German marching songs
out of World War II. Or something that might have been played during
the Nuremburg rallies.
My mind kept
going back to all the books I’ve read and movies I saw of Goebbelsand
Herman Goering, and even of Hitler himself loudly shouting Nazi
propaganda to all their supporters.
The longer I listened the more I was drawn into almost believing
that Naklua Thailand little Germany had become the Third Reich.
While Axel took on the personality and appearance of Herman Goering.

And as I looked around me I saw several German men singing along
with Axel. One of them appearing to have tears in his eyes. Then I
noticed Koyo and Nee Nee dancing to the music. Not Thai music but
deeply resonating German sounds that emphasized the guttural tones
of the German language. Nee Nee and Koy were dancing like two
hyperkinetic animated figures that were totally clueless about what
Axel’s intentions were or what was going through my head. The German
men and the two Thai women making me think of all the true believers
prior to and during World War II. orld War II. believers

I thought Axel was terrific. Hamming all this Teutonic music as he
purposely changed his voice into what so many German SS officers
must have sounded like while shouting out orders.

It was all so funny watching all these
Germans hamming it up. But when three or four of them started to
sing Pattaya’s signature song Pattaya Pattaya in German, I decided to have the last joke on them.
Ever watch Excaliber, perhaps the best
movie about King Arthur that had ever been produced? The same
music is played throughout the movie. Passages from Siegfried’s
funeral are played thoughout the movie. The passages are straight
out of Richard Wagner’s opera “Goetterdaemmerung“.
As the great tragedy of Arthur and Camelot unfolds that same
Wagnerian theme is played and over.
In the end Camelot and all the good it stood for is destroyed. King
Arthus is killed in battle, and all is lost. But all of that is old
English legend and folklore. But Hitler and many of his minions
identified so much with Richard Wagner’s classical music that
Goetterdaemmerung, which means twilight of the Gods, became an
ever-recurrent part of their thought processes.
It was a great party, and those particular Germans did a lot to make
it unforgettable. But I must have the final say to all that Teutonic
Ness, they brought in to liven the party up. By interjecting a few
bits and pieces of Siegfried’s funeral I’m throwing in my own
contribution of Germanness to the videos I shot of the party.
