Heino is a German folk singer who was enormously popular in the 1960s. He frequently appeared on album covers decked out in turtle necks and vinyl jackets. The thing which is so interesting about him, is his voice, it is deeper and more powerful than any death metal singer could hope their voice to be. With this almighty voice, Heino sometimes sings children's lullabies,

The children's songs are incredible. I've also heard his version of "Una Paloma Blanka," which is totally great.

Where is the long-promised Heino/Haino collaboration?

I only have one LP, so I don't know how representative it is. I usually spike comps with "Ja ja die Katja, die hat ja". I'd have to put it in the "like it ironically" category. It makes me giddy listening to it. But what great style!

And what's with the glasses? Is he an albino with sensitive eyes? Is he blind? Does he have Marty Feldman's disease?

― Kerry (dymaxia), Monday, 10 February 2003 22:00 (twenty-two years ago)

One more thing : you can check out some Heino songs at this page .

I just had to hear "Katja" again. The page says it's naughty but I don't know German.

I take it back...I don't just like it ironically. I love it!!

― Kerry (dymaxia), Monday, 10 February 2003 22:09 (twenty-two years ago)

I guessed you missed out on that very collaboration when they played in New York, Amateurist...

Because no joke is too obvious for Donut Bitch!

the glasses are because he's totally wall-eyed.

immortalized by the hanson brothers (nomeansno side project) in "you can't hide the heino":

it seemed like yesterday when the girls would turn him down
they just stood and stared and the boys pushed him around
but then that wall-eyed man with the shades came into town
he got a turtle neck sweater he never looked better,
never looked better

down in the ratskeller, up in the schloss
everyone in deutchland knows whose boss
everyone in deutchland knows whose boss

" Heino is a German folk singer ..."

Has anyone ever seen the bit from that German variety show where Heino performs "Und Sie Hiess Lulalei" (the song with the "Hula, hula, hula, la la la" chorus)?

Dude dances with HIMSELF. It's quite spectacular.

Volksmusik /= folk music.

- destroy the music

U + K : the "That's Irritainment" episode (WFMU related public access show) which shows the one Heino performance where he seems to get totally gold lamé and funky on stage, and then...

― donut bitch (donut), Wednesday, 24 March 2004 00:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Is he really crosseyed? that's what it seemed to be implying...
