Current music

Today on Germany’s top 40’s playlist were songs similar to the ones we have in the U.S. such as, Shake it off by Taylor Swift, All of Me by John Legend, Play Ball by AC/DC. There are also songs that are in German, but many actually were in English.

Paul

Hello, my name is Paul and I am 19 years old. I decided to go into the war with my friends because Kantorek persuaded me that it would be a good idea. Little did I know it was the worst experience of my life. Fighting in the German army on the Western front was brutal and has scarred me for life.To me, Patriotism is not as glorious as I thought. I've killed and seen my people killed and now I will have those memories forever. It's also hard to talk to my family about the war and my experiences. They wouldn't understand what it's like to live through the war as a soldier. One by one I see my friends die, sooner or later it's my turn as well. What I have learned is that even though I was once a kind hearted, sensitive man, the war can turn anyone into a lonely empty character such as myself.
