Lasse Redn
"Lasse redn" (colloquial for standard German "Lass sie reden" - Let 'em talk) is a song by the German rock band Die Ärzte. It is the fourth track and the third single released from their 2007 album ''Jazz ist anders''. The song is optimistic about people who gossip about other people, implying that rumours don't mean anything. Music video In the video, a man (played by Martin Klempnow) mimes what Farin sings, first in a little room and then on a stage where dancers appear. Also tied-up cooks from the cover of "Jazz ist anders" appear on both sides of the stage, which are parodies of the bondage comics heroine Sweet Gwendoline, who has been used as the band's mascot. While on the stage, a woman in a small circle in the corner of the screen is gesturing along with the man miming. The band doesn't appear in the video, except for a while as thumbs with clothes on and faces on them. Personnel *Farin Urlaub - guitar, vocals * Rodrigo González - bass, keyboard *Bela B.

Rock Music
Rock music is a broad genre of popular music that originated as " rock and roll" in the United States in the late 1940s and early 1950s, developing into a range of different styles in the mid-1960s and later, particularly in the United States and United Kingdom.W. E. Studwell and D. F. Lonergan, ''The Classic Rock and Roll Reader: Rock Music from its Beginnings to the mid-1970s'' (Abingdon: Routledge, 1999), p.xi It has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rock and roll, a style that drew directly from the blues and rhythm and blues genres of African-American music and from country music.

For instrumentation, rock has centered on the electric guitar, usually as part of a rock group with electric bass guitar, drums, and one or more singers.
