Eh ... it translates as: "Ah that hurts me But song" ... I assume that's a translation error and you're not talking about making music by farting!
It means
Ah I'm sorry
Thank goodness for that ... I was beginning to think Tam had a bum fart fetish!It does if you change the last word from lied to leid! (I Googled it). Hope that does doesn´t infringe Rule 1.
In future, don't play it so cool that it turns into a block of ice. As a teenager there was a boy in our group who used to always walk out of the room when I walked in, he would never talk to me or even look at me. He was always flirting and chatting to all of the pretty girls. He made me feel rubbish. Bumped into him 10 years later and he told me I was always crazy for you!! IDIOT. Anyway, I just laughed it off and let it go but really, I should have told him this so he can educate his own sonsNow I didn't set out on this month long trip of the Baltics looking for love, in fact I was more interested in abandoned Soviet era military sites but you can never say never and the female of the species up in this part of the world is particualrly beautiful.
Anyway, I'm rambling already....
I needed a site for services so had a look on CC and a nice little site popped up close to where I want to be tomorrow. I pulled in about midday and the nice owner showed me the services and took me down by foot to where I could park. During the small talk he had asked if I was travelling alone and when I replied yes he thought it was funny as the only other person on the campsite was a young German lady who was also alone.
We passed the Fraulein who was in a hippy-esque PVC with her 2 dogs outside. She was sitting enjoying the sunshine, her lovely dress flowing gently in the breeze. I couldn't help but notice she was exactly my type. A quick "Guten tag, wie gehts?" would suffice for now - she must have been impressed with my impeccable German!.... plenty time to chat later. Maybe at dusk around the firepit that was between where she was and where I was to park? How romantic that would be!
So she's European, a dog lover, around my age and not only a travel lover but a solo van-lifer like myself. Surely?
I have now parked up and set up the seat on my pitch. I've sat down with a book just as she is passing. Play it cool I thought, just a passing remark on her lovely dogs will do for now.
Literally 30 seconds has passed when I can hear her engine start up and I see her heading out of the campsite never to be seen again (probably).
Auf wiedersehn meine liebe

I guess fate will have us bump in to each other somewhere else along our trips.In future, don't play it so cool that it turns into a block of ice.

You did, of course, ask the site warden if he had her address \ telephone number?I guess fate will have us bump in to each other somewhere else along our trips.

Don't think they can give out that info. Data protection?You did, of course, ask the site warden if he had her address \ telephone number?

Two things.
One - monzer would plead "randiness" (believe it may be similar to insanity but ......) so warden may take pity on him and phone the young lady and tell her she has a frisky admirer!
Two - given he's an Aberdonian he'll get, as the saying goes, a piece at aonybody's door"!

I'm in Europe so they don't do wardensYou did, of course, ask the site warden if he had her address \ telephone number?
And there are no forms to fill out with address, phone number, shoe size etc. You just park up and give the guy a few euros when you leave.
Besides, I'd never ask for someone else's details, that's a bit creepy. I'll find her when I switch the tracker on later

Just watching him singing it in another language actually, I have been watching other videos of him singing it and playing the guitar. I only discovered tonight it was him playing the guitar on that song

I bet she cleared off thinking you were another bloody German, you should have spoken in pure Scots

I can hear it now, sitting at a little bar along the coast on a warm beach with this playing in the back ground ….

I'll have to add that chat up line to my 'little black book' (if I can find it?)
"Hi, can you fix my fridge?"
Now that is getting desperate, far better if he went via Hamburg.
In my Merchant Navy days, there used to be a street famous for satisfaction (or so the crew told me)
