List of songs about Hamburg

Last updated

This list of songs about Hamburg is about songs dedicated to or involving the city, state and port of Hamburg, Germany.

Contents

Traditionally, Hamburg has been associated with a number of sea shanties, and Low German folk music and Schlager, added by Hamburger Schule rock and pop during the early 1980s, and alternative rock and hip hop during the early 1990s. Most notable recent musicians with work about the Hanseatic city are ECHO Award winners Udo Lindenberg, Fettes Brot and Revolverheld; international artists include Frank Boeijen, Keane, Édith Piaf and Tom Waits.

List

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by adding missing items with reliable sources.

Note: this list should exclude songs where Hamburg is simply name-checked (like in "London, Hamburg, Paris, Rome, [...]", lyrics of "All Over the World" by the Electric Light Orchestra) or barely mentioned in a few lines (like in "Every Fucking City" by Paul Kelly).
