German Song?

Question

I need to know the title and/or artist of a song that was popular in Germany a few years ago. I believe the artist performed it at some sort of German Song Awards show. I don't know how to spell it, but the main part of the song is pronounced:

Va Dee Ha Dee Do De Da

Any help would be appreciated!

Answer 1

the author is Stefan Raab

title is Wadde Hadde Dudde Da

the title would be spelled in correct german:

Was hast du denn da?

Answer 2

With due respect to Sirius' search mission, and just in case you're fed up with childisch songs, here's the US' most famous German song by the late Falco from Austria:

Answer 3

Stefan Raab - Wadde Hadde Du De Da

See the full clip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFJaRzv-b...

The origin of that "song"lyrics - said by Stefan Raab himself - was an old lady on the street saying to a baby "Wadde hadde du de da?" which is kind of childish (does this word even exist?! I think you get it) for "What have you got there?". That "conversation" inspired Raab for that song.

He performed that song in the Eurovision Song Contest, finished as 5th (as far as i can remember). The sound of that song reflects most of Raabs style.

Some other songs performed by Raab:

Ho' mir ma 'ne Flasche Bier: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xs7bXTpOP...

Former prime minister of Germany Gerhard Schröder was supposed to do some autographs. While beeing filmed he mentioned that someone should bring him a bottle of beer, otherwise i is on strike and doesn't write anymore. Raab took that sequenz since it is quit funky and composed everything else. Not to mention that song entered Top10 of german charts.
