Popcorn Lakritze Die Kinderhitparade Im ZDF: A Retro Treat for Tiny Ears and Big Hearts Let’s get one thing straight—this album is pure 1985 Germany in a shiny, crinkly wrapper. It’s like someone took all the sugary goodness of Schlager music, mixed it with Europop vibes, and sprinkled some childhood nostalgia on top. Released under K-tel (you know, those "buy now!" compilation kings), Popcorn Lakritze feels less like an artistic masterpiece and more like your quirky aunt’s playlist from that summer she thought perms were a good idea. The album has tracks that range from bouncy sing-alongs to borderline earworms you’ll hum while stuck in traffic. But don’t let its kiddie branding fool you; there’s enough here to make even grown-ups tap their feet—or roll their eyes, depending on how much saccharine joy they can handle. Track Highlights: The Good, The Bad, and The Sticky First up, “Rock Me Amadeus.” Yep, Falco’s iconic ode to Mozart makes an appearance, but weirder. Imagine this classic being repurposed for kids who probably didn’t know who Mozart was, let alone care about his powdered wigs. Yet somehow, it works? Like peanut butter on toast—it shouldn’t make sense, but dang if it doesn’t hit the spot. This version strips away most of Falco’s edgy coolness, replacing it with something so wholesome it almost hurts. Still, I remember it because… well, try forgetting lyrics about Mozart when they’re delivered with such manic enthusiasm. Then there’s “Toot Toot (My Toot Toot).” Oh boy, where do I start? If you’ve ever wondered what happens when Louisiana swamp funk meets German children’s television, look no further. This track is catchy as heck, though listening to it feels like eating too many gummy bears at once—fun at first, then slightly nauseating. That chorus will stick in your brain like gum under a school desk. You’ve been warned. Behind the Scenes: Who Made This Sugar Rush? Props go to Ulrich Erdt, the compilation producer who clearly had fun assembling this chaotic mixtape. Günther Behrle, wearing both lyricist and producer hats, deserves credit for keeping things weird yet oddly charming. And shoutout to engineer Claus Wilcke, who must’ve had the patience of a saint to deal with whatever went down during recording sessions. Directed by Horst Eppinger, supervised by Ernest Jensen—this crew pulled off a project that screams “late-night TV commercial special.” Final Thoughts: Sweet or Sour? Is Popcorn Lakritze Die Kinderhitparade Im ZDF a timeless classic? Nah. Is it worth tracking down for a laugh, a trip down memory lane, or just to marvel at ‘80s German culture? Absolutely. Listening to it today feels like opening a time capsule filled with neon leg warmers, questionable fashion choices, and unironic happiness. And honestly, isn’t that kind of refreshing? In a world full of overproduced beats and overly serious artists, maybe we could all use a little more “Popcorn Und Lakritze” in our lives. Just don’t blame me if you catch yourself humming “Toot Toot” in the shower tomorrow morning. Oh, and fun fact: Did you know licorice-flavored popcorn exists? Yeah, same energy as this album. Try it sometime—you might hate it, or you might love it. Either way, it’s unforgettable.
