Seeed is a German band from Berlin. Founded in 1998, they have become well known in Germany and its neighboring countries.
Seeed consists of eleven band members, including three singers, a horn section and a DJ. Seeed is recognized for their unusual use of horns. They have worked with Cee-Lo Green, Anthony B, Tanya Stephens, General Degree as well as other Jamaican artists and producers. Almost all of their music releases feature a popular guest experience. Seeed's lyrics are in German, English and Patois. Their biggest hits in the German Sprachraum were "Dickes B", "Aufstehn", "Ding" and "Music Monks". Although their lyrics are in English and German, most of the songs in German were completely translated into English for the international releases of the Albums Next! and Music Monks.
Their first smash hit was "Dickes B", an ode to Berlin. They won three ECHO Awards. With the international versions of Music Monks and Next!, they found broader success in Germany's neighboring countries, especially France. After their initial success with "Dickes B", in the year 2000, they released their first full-length album a few months later, in 2001: New Dubby Conquerors.
i don't want to hurt nobody
it's just that i know i've had enough
there's to much pain and hatred
i think i'd rather be dead
than to live without mercy, hope or love
so don't come any closer, i really mean it
yes i know you think i've lost my mind
my gun's here and i'll use it
and this time i'm gonna really lose it
listed as a teenage suicide
i can see you out there all around me
but it's too late to talk it out this time
i don't want to shoot you
i'll do what i have to do
listed as a teenage suicide
i don't think i can take it
i give you my heart to break it
listed as a teenage suicide
it could've been me
out there in the moonlight screaming
it could've been me
in a search for everlasting meaning
but i found all the pieces
deep within the arms of Jesus
it could've been me
out there in the night oh
till Jesus changed my life
